    It wasn't exceptionally clean, but that's just me nit picking. Lounge was full of someone else's hair and very dusty.

    The bed was super comfy, very quiet location.

    Our only tiny minuscule gripe was the kettle needs a descale or replacing. Could taste it in the teas and coffee, but be fair most places are the same.

    Lovely quiet little spot, sheltered garden area for a bit of privacy. Nice , clean and modern. Tasty snacks left, nice to have coffee, tea and milk all sorted and. It have to worry about anything.

    Entering from the side door, I just felt a little shy 🤭 everything was welcoming you after entering the lodge. Only bed was too hard 🙄

    Cozy place in the garden. So sweet owners, welcoming. Milk, juice and beer provided in the fridge. Lovely stay, home away home. Floor heating was lovely (i was okay but my partner loves hot, not warm). I just struggled to turn up digital thermometer but finally managed. Crisps was on the table. Living room was large. Perfect clean bedding and towels. So what else 🥰 thanks Sophie and Neil

    Toilet seat was loose. I know I could have told the hosts but little they could have done over the weekend.

    Welcome pack was a nice touch. Excellent communication with hosts. Easy access to accommodation. Good shower and lovely thick towels. Great location and nice and quiet for sleeping

    Nothing to improve on.

    Felt like a home from home, super cosy and had great facilities. Nice and secure and had own privacy away from the main house. Location was also great, only 15-20 minutes to Harry Potter and a local town centre nearby. Loved the little touches on arrival and selection of teas, coffees, hot chocolate and the extras in the fridge, vey thoughtful.

    There was absolutely nothing we didn’t like. The property had a microwave & fridge which were so handy to have when we arrived but if I really had to pick one thing we could have done with, was an electric ring/hob for cooking- that’s really not essential though as most people probably wouldn’t need this.

    Everything, it was wonderful, very comfortable & cosy. Very clean and had home from home facilities. Comfy bed and bedroom was nice and dark.

    all excellent. The lodge was clean with every convenience. Bed and Furniture very comfortable. The lodge was cosy and welcoming. We only stayed one night but didn't"t really want to leave.

    The location was easy to find and the lodge perfectly situated. The hosts sent us a door code before arrival and greeted us warmly when we did arrive
