"We really enjoyed our stay at the retreat cabin. Its absolutely beautiful! The only thing wed suggest is adding a softer light inside the main room. Leaving the curtains open was lovely, as we could soak in the peaceful surroundings. Lovely place!"

"We recently stayed at the Amour 1 Lodge and honestly, it had its ups and downs. Inside, it was quite nice - the kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans and utensils, which made cooking easy. The living area was comfy enough for relaxing after a day out. The bathroom in the bedroom was a bit tight, though, with nowhere to put your toothbrush or toiletries, which was a bit annoying. The hot tub was okay; it was at the right temperature when we arrived, but most of the jets didnt work, so it felt more like a warm bath outside. We only used it twice in the week. The bed was a real letdown - it was an old, rickety wooden frame with a super soft mattress that sank in the middle. It creaked constantly, so we kept waking each other up turning over or getting up. On the plus side, the place was generally clean, though there were quite a few cobwebs hanging from the beams and light fittings over the bed. We did have a day without heating or hot water due to a storm, but the staff responded quickly and even brought electric radiators, which was a nice touch. All in all, not bad, but could definitely be better!"

"Our Charlesworth Lodges review: Stayed in the Amour 1 Lodge. Was really nice inside, good kitchen and living room. Kitchen had a good stock of pots and pans and utensils which was helpful. Bathroom in bedroom was ok but a little on the small side. Nowhere to put your toothbrush etc. Hot tub was ok. Was at temperature when we arrived, however most of the jets didnt work so felt like you were sitting in a warm bath outside. Only used twice in the whole week. Bed was awful! Rickety old wooden bed with a very soft mattress that sunk in the middle. Woke each other up in the night turning over or getting up to use the loo cause of the creaking! Place was generally clean, however quite a lot of cobwebs hanging from the beams and light fittings over the bed. Did have a slight problem one of the days where we had no heating or hot water, due to a bad storm the previous evening, but the staff were quick to sort and even bought over some electric radiators which was a very nice touch."

"The decor was quite lovely and the sofa super comfy, which we loved. The TV in the bedroom was a bit frustrating though-only worked with radio, no controller! Still, clean and cozy overall."

"We booked this for our honeymoon since travelling abroad with three kids was a nightmare. Honestly, we thought it was just second best-turns out, it was absolutely fantastic! Loved every minute."

"This Coombes View lodge was dated in several ways. The setties were worn out, the heating was switched of and had to be turned on by staff and later had to be restarted. The hot tub is controled daily but also a bit tired (lights not working). The remote to the entrance gate did not work and no replacement was avaible. Staff was very helpful and reaponded quickly. But the lodge really deserves a thorough upgrade."

"The Lodge exceeded our expectation - we stayed in Coombes View 1 and were absolutely delighted with our accommodation. Set in picturesque countryside with breathtaking views, each lodge is situated well away from the others offering privacy and tranquility. Inside the lodge was beautiful, well equipped and immaculately clean. The hot tub was maintained daily and was up to temperature by the time we had unpacked. We had the added bonus of the company of 3 Alpacas who came to the fence at the side of our lodge daily. Another highlight was helping owner Mark herd 4 of his sheep, who had escaped their field and decided to pay us a visit. We spotted a deer from our kitchen window on our last day! This place is a hidden gem, was such a relaxing break and a complete change from the normal busy pace of every day life. If youre looking for a get away from it all break this is the place and we cannot recommend it highly enough. We will definitely be returning."

"Honestly, our stay at The Lodge was just what we needed. We stayed in Coombes View 1 and from the moment we arrived, it felt special. The location is stunning, nestled in lovely countryside with views that just take your breath away. Each lodge feels private, so you get that real sense of peace and quiet - perfect for unwinding. Inside, it was beautifully decorated, super clean and had everything we could possibly need. The hot tub was a real treat, always ready after a quick check in the mornings. We had some adorable visitors too - three alpacas came to say hello at the fence, which was such a lovely surprise. We even got to watch Mark herd some sheep that had escaped and paid us a visit! On our last day, we spotted a deer from the kitchen window - a perfect end to our trip. Honestly, this place is a good place, great for switching off and relaxing away from the hustle. Well definitely be back!"

"We absolutely loved our time at the cottage in the Peak District! The scenery was breathtaking and the place itself was really charming with lovely decor and comfy furniture. The hot tub was a real highlight after long walks. The kitchen had everything we needed and the dressing room was such a bonus. Oh and the master bed was super comfy! Thanks for a fantastic stay, well be back for sure!"

"We really enjoyed our stay here! The cottage was super spacious, clean and comfy. The views are stunning, though the access road is a bit tricky so driving carefully is a must. The kitchen had everything we needed, but itd be handy to have some instructions for the cooker. The hot tubs position is a bit odd-covering the view when off, which is a shame."
Emma Carter - Jul 2024
"Peaceful location, although accessed by a single track so care is needed when driving down this.Lovely views. Clean and comfortable and spacious cottage. Kitchen well stocked with utensils and equipment. Would of been good to have instructions for the cooker.Hot tub is positioned the wrong way round because when the cover is off it blocks the lovely view."

"We had a lovely stay at Coombes View Lodge! The place was fantastic overall, though we did miss a little welcome pack with tea, coffee and milk - something we're used to in other lodges. Still, highly recommend it!"
Emily Carter - May 2024
"We found the cottage to be really roomy and super comfy, set in such a peaceful spot thats well looked after. Its just a short drive to lovely walks, National Trust places and Manchester too. The place was spotless, the bed was a dream and we loved the views from the bedroom and patio. Listening to the birds and owls at night was a real highlight - wed definitely return!"
Emma Carter - May 2024
"We really enjoyed our stay! The hot tub was definitely the highlight-exactly why we pick lodges, for that little bit of luxury. The location was perfect and always accessible. Inside, the lodge was clean but a bit dated, which wasnt obvious from the photos. Still, very functional and comfortable."
Emma Roberts - May 2024
"We had a lovely stay at this cosy cottage. The bed was super comfy, especially the king size, which was a real treat. The views outside were absolutely stunning, perfect for unwinding. Everything we needed was there, which was great. The only minor hiccup was the smart TV - it only played BBC iPlayer, so it could do with an update. One evening, while relaxing in the hot tub around 7pm, the owner asked us to turn the music down, but we knew the rule about no noise after 10pm anyway. All in all, a lovely break!"

"We really enjoyed our stay at this charming barn conversion. The peaceful location is perfect, even if the access road isnt the smoothest. The bed was super comfy and the bathrooms were modern, especially the one with the spa bath! The hot tub was a highlight once it warmed up. Definitely coming back!"
Martin - Apr 2024
"Excellent stay, just a few minor things that could elevate it. Mirror in single bed bedroom, dishwasher wasn’t working after being told it was fixed, a few wasps flying around. Otherwise the stay was brilliant and we really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you ?"
Greg - Aug 2022
"A very nice and clean lodge that was good value for money. Hot tub was also clean and well kept.
The only slight issue was no access to WiFi (couldn't find or connect) but was a minor flaw when everything else was really good.
Would return happily."

"Been here several times before so that should say something of my opinion of site , ( first time in old barn though ). Ideal spot to get away from it all for a few days , but plenty on door step if required ( Buxton , Manchester)."
Christopher - Jul 2022
"All round excellent, my only complaint is that there was no where to sit to dry your hair and make up as there’s no dressing tables or mirrors, apart from that excellent."
