Really charming little lodge, loved the cosy vibe. Just wish there was a full-length mirror and the smoke alarm was a bit less sensitive when cooking.

We had a really lovely stay at this cosy cottage tucked away on a working farm, yet it felt surprisingly private. The hosts, Robert and Sharon, are genuinely lovely and welcoming. The place is spacious and well-equipped, especially the kitchen and bathroom - made cooking a breeze! The bed was super comfy and we loved the secluded garden with nice furniture, perfect for relaxing. Plenty of walks nearby and Thaxted has some cracking restaurants like The Star and The Maypole. Wed definitely recommend it!

We had a lovely stay! The owners are genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help us. The cottage itself is adorable, with its charming half-timbered look and a really powerful shower.

We decided to spend a long weekend at Rockingham Forest to visit our son in Stamford and overall, we really enjoyed it. The booking process was simple and we got regular updates, which was helpful. The lodge itself was fantastic-spotlessly clean, really spacious and the beds were super comfy, which made a big difference. We appreciated the clear signage for walks and facilities around the site. The cafes takeaway pizza was a real treat! The only downside was parking-some lodges had two spaces, but ours only had one and parking was a bit tight. Still, we had a great time and will definitely return!
