Great spot for families, lots to do around, facilities are really good.
Jamie, Birmingham
Date of stay: 21st December 2024
We stayed at the lodge recently and honestly, it was pretty great. The place was spotless and super comfy - we felt right at home. Only small gripe was a couple of pans with some old food on them, so we had to give them a quick clean before cooking. The shower wasnt the most powerful, but it did the job just fine. Overall, it was a lovely stay and we wouldn't let those tiny things put us off. Definitely would go back!

Honestly, we had such a great time at the lodge! The private hot tub with fairy lights and starry views was just incredible, especially after long walks. Indoors, the spa bath felt like pure luxury - really appreciated that touch. The living space was super comfy and the four-poster bed in the bedroom was just lovely. We did get invited to try the pool, gym and squash courts, but we were too busy exploring the beautiful surroundings and relaxing in the hot tub. Thanks for a wonderful break!

Date of stay: 17th November 2024
The lodge was perfect for our relaxing break. We loved the private hot tub with fairy lights and views of the stars. Indoors, the spa bath was an added luxury! The living area was very comfortable, and the bedroom with its four poster bed was lovely. We were invited to use other facilities including a swimming pool, gym and squash courts, but we were too busy enjoying the walks from the door and further afield, followed by a lounge in the hot tub. Thank you for a brilliant holiday!

We had a lovely time at Copper Beech Lodge! The inside was super well-equipped, especially the kitchen with everything you could need. We loved playing the board games in the evening. The hot tub was the highlight-so relaxing under the stars. Perfect for anyone wanting a peaceful break, especially outdoorsy families looking for some quiet time. Wed definitely go back!

We had an absolutely lovely Christmas at Copper Beech Lodge. The setting was so peaceful and scenic, it really felt like a proper escape. The hot tub was such a treat after long walks in the area, which were really enjoyable. The location was spot on - shops just a short drive away, so we had everything we needed without any hassle. The hosts went above and beyond; they were so friendly and helpful from start to finish. We arrived to a beautifully decorated tree, all lit up, along with a gift and a card that made us feel really welcome. On Christmas eve, they even dropped off a new roasting set - that was such a nice touch. Honestly, we couldnt have asked for a better stay and cant wait to come back! Thanks so much, Simon & Jeanette!

We stayed at the lodge recently and honestly, it was pretty good overall. The place was spotless and tidy, which we really appreciated. The heating worked perfectly, keeping us warm on chilly nights and the bed was surprisingly comfy! The kitchen was simple but functional. Only minor gripes-bathroom taps were a bit fiddly and the shower had low pressure. The TV was a nice size and had all the channels we needed. Would stay again!

We spent a week over Easter and really enjoyed our stay. The site is quite cosy and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, which made everything easier. The lodge was a bit quirky and maybe a bit old-fashioned, but it was spotless and had everything we needed. The hot tub was definitely a highlight! There was plenty to keep us busy too - a pool (we had it all to ourselves!), squash courts, a gym and outdoor tennis. Our dogs loved how welcoming the place was. Well definitely be returning soon!

We had a lovely family getaway here. Its really about making the most of it and you get what you pay for. The cabins a bit on the older side, so dont expect shiny new furniture or high-end appliances. Bedding and towels were spotless and comfy, which was great. We did have to ask for extra towels, so its worth bringing some along, especially if youre planning to use the hot tub a lot. The appliances all worked fine, no issues there. The shower was a bit weak but hot enough to do the job. The kitchen could do with a pizza cutter-lol! The hot tub was definitely a highlight, even if we didnt use the pool or other facilities on-site. The drive up is quite steep, but our car made it fine. Stunning views too, wed definitely come back!

Beautiful scenic stay! This was a perfect place for our family with 4 children under 10 years. We love being outdoors and exploring woodlands so the location was perfect for us. It was very private and quiet which is perfect if you enjoy a secluded trip away from a busy life. We also really enjoyed the swimming pool, the booking was really easy for this, we really enjoyed we had the pool to our selves. The pool was very clean.
The only recommendation we have would probably a map as we felt bad as we had to text the owners a couple of times, however they were super friendly and helpful.

The lodge itself could do with a bit of 'doing up' as looking a little tired, windows where double glazed but couple of hamdles missing and the wind was blowing straight through windows and door
However, everything else was amazing, Ollie was extremely helpful and friendly.
Private swimming pool to hire which was nice, although again a little 'tired' looking
Also a gym and pool room with self service bar which was really nice
Fantastic scenery, could do with more signage to actual lodges off main road and very narrow, twisty, hilly lane to the lodges, which made the entrance a little interesting, also a recently fallen tree due to storms which we had to drive under, very exciting
Would definitely recommend for a stay, even better in summer!
