Clear Sky Lodge Park

Beautiful lodge in an amazing location. Outstanding views, feels like youre in a tree house. Walks right from the park. The lodge is immaculate throughout. Loved the hot tub after a long day walking. Jackie is a great host, this was our third visit well definitely be back. Missing the fresh air and bird song already.

We had a really nice, chill stay. The cottage was spotless and had all we needed, plus some thoughtful extras. Highly recommend it!

Really enjoyed our stay, the owners were lovely and the jacuzzi was definitely a highlight!

Fabulous place. Third time we have stayed. Clear Skies Lodge is perfect for us. Love the peace and quiet, we were able to sit out 2 afternoons we were there. The added bonus we had picked the darkest time of the month, we had clear skies 3 nights and aurora one night too. Even if the weather is not perfect, it is nice to be able to sit and watch the wildlife through the large window.

We loved the peaceful vibe of the lodge park, its so quiet and relaxing. The lodge itself was spotless, comfy and had everything we needed. Great spot for exploring the Observatory and nearby places!

We stayed at Oscars Lodge for four nights and honestly, it exceeded our expectations. The place is spotless and set in stunning scenery. The owner was really friendly and easy to reach. We've already sorted our return for next year!

We loved the peaceful setting, its a great spot for walking or cycling straight from the doorstep. Just a heads up, there arent any shops nearby, so bring everything you need. Wed definitely return though, its a lovely escape!

Really enjoyed our stay, the peaceful vibe was just what we needed.

Really enjoyed staying here, its so quiet and calming. Perfect for our dogs freedom too!

We stayed at the lodge recently and honestly, its a lovely place with really nice decor and comfy beds. Everything was super clean and tidy, which we appreciated. However, we did notice quite a bit of mould in the corner of the main bedroom, which gave off a strong smell and slightly spoiled the experience. A few little touches, like providing hand soap and not having to strip the beds at checkout, would definitely improve things. The hot tub area is a bit odd - it's fenced off and we think lowering one side would make a big difference, offering better views of the valley. Still, overall, a pretty great stay!

The lodge was lovely and very well appointed. The beds were comfy and everything was absolutely spotless. Unfortunately there was quite a bit of mould in the corner of the main bedroom which made the whole place smell quite a lot but other than that it was great! Personally I think a few touches such as hand soap and not being required to strip the beds at the end of your stay would make it better but these things dont take away from how beautiful the lodge is. The hot tub is in a strange fenced enclosure which I think could be lowered on one side so you can view the valley.

Honestly, we loved it! The place was super well organised and the hosts were genuinely lovely and helpful throughout. The location is just perfect - peaceful and scenic. Were definitely coming back next year! Cant wait!

We had a lovely stay at this peaceful spot. Sharon and Robert really go the extra mile to make everything perfect. Its our second visit already and were sure well be back again soon!

Really enjoyed it, just wish longer!

We stayed at Goddard's Mead recently and honestly, Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The building itself is beautifully restored, preserving its charm while offering modern comfort. The location is perfect for exploring Essex, especially if you enjoy wandering through quaint villages like Thaxted. Its a peaceful spot with everything you need for a restful break. Wed definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a cosy getaway!

We had an absolutely lovely stay! The location is perfect, especially sitting out on the veranda without worrying about anyone peering in. The lodge was spotless and really well equipped, with a layout that made everything easy. We first visited last year for a special birthday and a trip to Kielder Observatory - the wildlife, peaceful surroundings and dark skies are just fantastic. Were not hot tub people, but tried it and it really helped with aches and pains!

Our time at Oscars Lodge was truly lovely. The location is absolutely stunning and the hot tub was a definite highlight. Jackie and David were super friendly and helpful without being overbearing, which we appreciated. Plenty of space for us three and everything we needed was there. Wed definitely come back to this beautiful part of Northumberl and!

We loved the place - super clean, comfy and well kitted out. The hot tub was a highlight!

We had a great time at this place! The park itself is really peaceful, perfect for relaxing. The lodge was comfy and the hot tub was a nice touch. We lucked out with the weather - one night the sky was incredible, full of stars. Plenty of walks and cycle routes nearby, plus a pub with tasty food within walking distance. Definitely planning to come back!

We had such a lovely stay at this good place. The location is stunning and super private, which we really appreciated. The hosts were genuinely friendly and always ready to help if needed, but kept a good distance to maintain our privacy. The hot tub was a highlight after a long day cycling around. One thing to note is that the cottage is right under Stansted's flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much after a while, but its worth mentioning for light sleepers. Overall, wed definitely come back!

Absolutely loved our stay! The owners really did think of everything. Such a relaxing experience-definitely telling our friends about it!

We loved the cottage! Perfectly tucked away for peace but still near shops and local spots. The hot tub was a real highlight, along with the underfloor heating in the bathroom-super cosy. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel so welcome. Cant wait to return!

We had a great stay! The owners were super friendly and helpful, especially when the storm knocked out the power. The cottage was spotless, warm and well-equipped. Our dog loved the enclosed yard and we enjoyed the hot tub too!

We had a fantastic stay! The rural setting was so peaceful and the hot tub made it extra special. Loved exploring the countryside - well definitely come back again soon.

We had an amazing stay! The cottage was charming, with a lovely log burner and hot tub. Hosts were friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to come back!

We had a lovely stay! The cottage was perfect for relaxing, though be prepared for night-time plane noise from Stanstead. The hot tub was definitely a highlight!

A lovely lodge and beautiful quiet site. Definitely a place to unwind and de-stress.

Another wonderful trip to Clear skies Lodge Park. Beautiful Lodge and brilliant service from our hosts on site.. will hopefully be booking again soon

A fantastic holiday it’s was fabulous

Beautiful setting. Beautiful accomodation. Perfect long weekend away. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. The lodge had everything we needed in it. Only thing we were disappointed about was not being able to see the stars at night but it was wrong time of the year I think for that. I would highly recommend it to anyone especially those wanting a peaceful setting to relax but with adventures close by for families who also want to explore, cycle, walk, do water sports etc too.

Great place to stay. Clean, spacious and very well equipped.

Amazing venue and a wonderful host. Highly recommend

Lovely setting and a relaxed feel. Lodge very comfortable.
