Small chalet not a lodge, attached to another chalet with conjoining doors. Can hear neighbour's t.v through the walls/joining door. Smoke from neighbours seeping into our room so had to keep door and windows shut in the heat. Weeds in yard at waist height. No privacy as fence is open and exposed to the road outside and balcony from lodge next door overlooks the hot tub. Children running passed. Adults only and families should be separate. Chalet very very basic, outdated and neglected. I had to purchase toilet paper. Unmade road leading from park entrance to the lodges. No WIFI option. And signal poor. It was ok as a base to visit York but not what was expected for our honeymoon.

We had an absolutely lovely stay here! The owners were so friendly and helpful, really making us feel welcome. The cottage itself is charming, with a cosy vibe and spotlessly clean interiors. The shower was powerful, which was a nice surprise and the bed was super comfy. Parking right next to the cottage made everything so easy. Plus, the location is perfect for scenic walks to Thaxted and exploring the nearby villages with their pretty half-timbered houses and windmill. Wed definitely come back!

We really enjoyed our stay at the lodge. The presentation was lovely and the shower was fantastic. The only downside was the bed - quite uncomfortable, like sleeping on jelly! The Watermill Restaurant served incredible food and Harveys Sports Bar was a great spot too. Definitely worth a visit!

We had an amazing stay at the cottage! The place was really well kept and had everything we needed. Loved the nearby dog walks - perfect for our furry friends. The host was super friendly and quick to reply. Meeting the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig, was a real highlight. Cant wait to return! Definitely worth it.

We really enjoyed our stay! The hot tub was a real highlight, checked daily and ready to go when we arrived. The kitchen had everything we needed and the fridge was surprisingly spacious - perfect for our stay. The cleaning products pack was a thoughtful touch. Only thing is, wed have loved a vacuum cleaner since we had pets and kids; sweeping was a bit of a chore. The oven was a tad wobbly and took longer to cook, but overall, it was a fantastic place. Well be back!

We stayed at this cosy cottage and loved the peaceful vibe, though planes can be a bit noisy at night from nearby Stanstead. The hot tub was a real highlight!

Everything was just really grubby. I couldnt relax and felt so on edge with how dirty it was when we got there. I tried to clean up a bit but it just made me feel like I couldnt settle. The beds and bedding were poor quality.

We stayed at this charming cottage on a working farm and honestly, it was perfect for what we wanted. The place is super private, with a lovely garden thats dog-proof and well-furnished. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are genuinely nice and made us feel really welcome. The cottage itself is spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed. There are loads of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great restaurants like The Star and The Maypole. Wed definitely recommend it!

We stayed at this place during a rainy December and it was perfect for us. The house is super well equipped and kept us warm and cosy. The bath is just lovely and the shower is nice and spacious. Being on a flight path didnt bother us at all, which was a relief! Perfect spot for dogs who dislike fireworks, totally in the middle of nowhere. Thanks a lot!

We stayed at No.4 and honestly, it was quite a mixed bag. The place was super clean and spacious, which we appreciated. The hot tub was definitely a highlight - really relaxing, though the cover was a pain to put back on since it didnt quite fit and was heavy! The reception, both phone and TV, was pretty much useless, which was a bit of a downer but didnt ruin everything. There was a strange smell in the ensuite bathroom that made it unusable, so we just kept the door shut the whole time, but luckily, there were other bathrooms available. One thing we thought wouldve been useful was a shower hose upstairs; with only a bath and a downstairs shower, washing hair was tricky. On arrival, the nice touch of a cleaning pack was appreciated, but some instructions for the oven wouldve been helpful - we couldnt get the microwave to fit the plate or turn wheels, so that was frustrating. Still, none of these issues spoilt our stay. Overall, for four nights, it was a lovely break, especially with the glorious weather. Definitely some tweaks needed, but we had a good time!

We had a really relaxing weekend at the cabin, though it couldve been a bit cleaner-some cobwebs and dust here and there. Apart from that, it was lovely!

Perfect for a couple, we brought some extras like toilet rolls and loved this cosy pondside lodge!
Elizabeth
Loved the place totally chilled would definitely go back
David
Nice place,good facilities and staff.We will return ?
Thomas
We had a really lovely holiday and would definitely return and recommend to other people. The only thing I would say is for the price you pay a few more basic items could be added to the cabin like washing up liquid, toilet bleach, anti bac spray more toilet roll and a small milk maybe? We don’t drive and had to order the other items in, but if I would have known I would have bought them with me. Also if there was an option of having the towels changed once during the week that would have been really good. However it’s a fab place to stay and we all had a really great time so thanks very much. The staff were friendly helpful and professional at all times and facilities were great!
Sandra
What a beautiful location. The lodge was brand new and so comfortable and clean. Everything we needed apart from a long handled brush. If you want to keep the lodges in this top top condition you need to help the guests look after them too. It’s hard to sweep a floor with a dust pan and brush! The facilities were good especially the pool being free. Water activities need more equipment though. And ohhh the hot tub how fabulous was that! It made our holiday. All in all fantastic and I will definitely be coming back soon.
Marilyn
Pleasant surroundings, comfortable lodge. Good places to visit nearby.
Bethany
Fabulous holiday, loved the lodge, lovely and modern. Only issue was the hottub got a little dirty after on the third day, we told a member of staff but wasn't rectified for us. Mentioned it was because of the extreme heat and it was a brand new hottub so hopefully just a one off. Restaurant was gorgeous and the sports bar is a nice touch. Overall we would return in the future.
Mary
Brilliant week!!!!
Kennedy
Lovely quiet site with good facilities and great staff and services.

We stayed in the dog friendly Aspen Lodge, which had a gated decking area which was great for the dog to have freedom, lodge was very spacious & clean & everything provided, hot tub was a bonus, location is amazing & fishing on site, very friendly staff, highly recommend & will definitely return.
Arianne
Thoroughly recommend this park, a nice size, clean and tidy. Very handy having a the restaurant and sports bar located next door. Swimming pool, soft play, cafe and mini shop all very useful.

Lovely park with swimming and spa facilities..3rd time at this lodge park and would go again.
