We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Kipling Lodge. With 1 adult and 4 children, there was plenty of space and privacy for everyone to enjoy.The lodge is very well maintained and that includes the hot tub.The bottle of wine, water, tea and and biscuits were a lovely touch upon our arrival.Matt was so helpful and quick to respond. The only thing that was missing was a clothes dryer to hang wet towels and clothes, and there were not enough hangers. I believe there were only 6 hangers in 3 wardrobes. Both additions would be welcome.Overall, without hesitation, 100 I would recommend staying at the Kipling Lodge.

Wonderfully peaceful stay at Kipling lodge. Elements of the lodge seemed brand new and immaculate. Loved the welcome pack of tea coffee and wine. Hot tub was amazing and loved the fact it was undercover. Just would like to see some cushions blankets to improve comfort and sluggish tv remote but only minor improvements and will definitely return .

The owners were very helpful, everything what you would need is provided, pots, pans, plates, dishes, glasses, fully functional kitchen, even washing up liquid and the dishwasher was a great bonus. Really good seating and dining area, 2 bedrooms with double beds, 1 with on suite bathroom, another room with bunk beds. Literally the only thing you need to take is food and toiletries. Theres an Asds a 10 minuye drive away in Leek, petrol station on the way and Rudyard Lake is less than a 5 minuye Drive away.Hot tub is always on and at temperature and was checked daily by Matt. Own private garden at the back with a shared field, even the dog loved it. Would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely stay at Kipling lodge. The lodge was super clean and well presented, very comfy with lots of little extras and amenities which were appreciated, simple things like hand soap at every sink, washing up liquid, salt and oil being very handy on the first night. The lodge is in a lovely location, quiet and rural, positioned near Rudyard lake which is a lovely walk to take. The hot tub was great and thoroughly enjoyed by all of us. The garden was a good size for our 2 big dogs and felt safe and secure. The open garden next to the lodge, was also handy to allow our dogs the freedom to run and chase a ball.Matthew the host was very helpful and friendly and was great at communication leading up to and during the stay.Thankyou for a lovely stay

We have just been to Kipling Lodge to spend Christmas and its been fantastic. The lodge had Christmas tree, decorations etc and we manage to cook a full Christmas dinner with everything in the kitchen. The lodge is comfy and clean and we loved our walks around Rudyard Lake. We have now booked for NY next year as we loved it so much.

We had a lovely week stay at Kipling Lodge with our 2 dogs. Enclosed garden for the dogs, who loved being on squirrel patrol
Teresa - Oct 2023
Kipling lodge was clean, tidy and comfortable. The hot tub was huge and well maintained. The beds were comfy. No expense was spared on the heating of the lodge, its a nest system so I suppose you could let Matt know if its too hot or cold. Smashing walks straight from the lodge door. Our dogs enjoyed themselves in the enclosed garden and exercise field not to mention the lake circular walk. This was our second time in the lodges here, 1st at Kipling lodge. We would definitely return.

We had a lovely week thank you. Thanks for booking the sunshine. The enclosed garden in addition to the extra grassed area was great for the dog. Beautiful shaded walks in the area including round Rudyard Lake which has rowing boats for hire or pay a launch fee for your own craft or SUP. Lovely big hot tub and despite a previous review, there was an oven glove. The washing machine meant little washing to take home. The BBQ was great to use as a stand for our disposable tray. Things we missed from past cottage experience was a hairdryer we would have taken our own but assumed there would be one, a pint of milk but we could have taken some if it had been noted that there was no welcome pack. Mark & Matthew were very helpful.

Fabulous lodge with everything you need and lots of parking which is great when family arrive separately from different directions. Secure garden area for our dog was a real bonus. Great location with easy access to the Lake and the water sports but also for exploring the Peak District. Matt, our host, was really lovely and made us very welcome. We had such a wonderful holiday here and will definitely be back! Thank you

Beautiful lodge, best we have stayed in, had everything you need for a self catering break. Stunning location and the enclosed garden was great for our whippet, although the squirrels tormented him daily. Hot tub was much appreciated after a stressful few weeks at work, very relaxing. Loved the easily accessible walks and views from the lake walk are incredible. Highly recommend Primo Piano in Leek for a meal out something for everyone on the menu and one of the best Italian restaurants Ive eaten at. Must give a mention to the bar staff at the Rudyard hotel who are very welcoming. All in all a great location, great lodge and I wish i were still there! Well be back.
