  • "This was an excellent place to stay with my young family, I think it would’ve been even better in the summertime, which I will have to consider coming back again with them all."

    I have to say Tom and Tony were very helpful in many ways, especially Tom with the fabulous samosas, freshly made when we arrived! I honestly feel like asking him for the recipe, that was very thoughtful of him to do that. They were always available for any issues that we needed to address. I will highly recommend this place as a excellent place to go with children, as lots of bedrooms, the mattresses upstairs possibly need to be replaced and we certainly need the lights in the hot tub area looked at, there was an issue with a leak coming in the conservatory top window, but as we were there in very stormy weather, we understood that this could happen, very very satisfied, as all I wanted to do was get together with my very young family I would definitely stay again, kind regards Angela.

    Thank you for your review, we have taken on board the issue with the lighting in the hot tub area and this has now been resolved . Also the mattresses are being replaced this coming week We look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner

  • "Great place and location."

    We were welcomed with freshly cooked samosas that were delicious. We were given all relevant information and every time I asked questions or had queries nothing was a bother. The spa was lovely. The view is just fields. In summer it would be great to be outside and have a bbq but for Autumn it was lovely to be in the dining area for our hen do. Perfect size for 12 of us (we had a few cancellations) . Not far from Derby town centre by taxi. There is a fun western town there as well.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Hopefully we will see you in the future Property Owner

  • "Fantastic stay, the owner is a great guy and makes you feel welcome."

    The cost out weighs the tiredness of the lodge, saying that it didn't spoil our stay. On sight is the most amazing Western Town which is mind blowing to say the least and Tom and Tony welcome you to walk round and share their passion for this unique step back in time. Location is very good and the facilities are very good. Great stay and we would definitely return.

    Thank you for your review we appreciate your feedback. Property Owner
