  • "We’ve just returned from the most relaxing stay at Hawkstone Lodge."

    Lou one of the owners is absolutely lovely and meet us on arrival. Firstly the location is amazing, and so peaceful. Looking out over open fields and listening to the birds over the ponds is wonderful. The cabin its self is beautifully furnished with a very comfy bed! I love that the kitchen and bathroom area is completely separate to the bedroom which is a rare find. When I say they have thought of everything, I really mean it. Anything we needed we found. And all the equipment and appliances are high quality. The hot tub is completely private and appreciated after many long walks you have around you. We absolutely loved our stay and will be booking to come back in the New Year.

  • "We absolutely loved our time here, just what you need if you want to get away from the busyness of everyday life and just sit back in the hot tub and watch the cows graze away or just enjoy the views of the scenery which there’s plenty of."

    Clear night skies for star gazing and an abundance of farm shops nearby to treat yourself to the local produce. Would recommend and would definitely consider staying here again.

  • "Amazing 5* the hosts Lou and Phil, We're so nice and thought of absolutely everything."

    The Hawkstone was so clean and warm just what you want on a rainy day (although we did still use the hot tub in the rain) waking up to the view of the cows in the field in the morning was just stunning. We took a 30min walk to the local pubThe Bear which was an easy walk and is a very nice pub. We enjoyed it so much we rebooked while we was sat enjoying the hot tub before we left.

We absolutely loved our time here and will 100% be returning come rain or shine. Beautiful views and a gorgeous little set up, such a relaxing weekend away. Would highly recommend. Thank you ☺️
