"We found the lodge to be quite spacious, plenty of room for our stuff. The lounge was really comfy, especially with the Smart TV which was a nice touch. The decking area, though, was a bit of a let-down-no chairs or table, just the wooden picnic table, so outdoor relaxing wasnt ideal. The mattress on the double was a bit firm for our liking, but it did the job. Also, the kitchen sink was square, but the round washing bowl didnt fit it at all-bit of a hassle. Overall, not bad!"

"We had an incredible stay! The lodge was spotless and the jacuzzi was fantastic for relaxing. We enjoyed the fire pit outside twice - perfect for chilly evenings. Only thing would be adding lamps in the living room and master bedroom, plus a slab by the fire pit to avoid the muddy ground. Brilliant overall!"

"Really appreciated how much thought the owners put into making everything perfect. We had such a relaxing break! Would definitely tell friends about it."

"Overall, quite happy with the stay. The shower head needs a washer to prevent water leaking out the side and when the bed's down, it sometimes blocks the bathroom door. Mentioned these to reception, no big deal."

"Our Love2Stay Mid Wales review: We really enjoyed the stay, especially wandering through the fields with our dogs-such a peaceful place!"

"Honestly, for what we paid, it wasnt worth it. The bedrooms were cramped, beds tiny and walls so thin we could hear everything. The hot tub and views were lovely, but overall quite disappointing."

"The cottage was stunning, especially with the hot tub and log burner. Hosts were lovely, peaceful surroundings-perfect for a quick escape. Well be back!"

"We had a lovely stay at this charming cottage tucked away on a working farm, which made it quite private and peaceful. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are genuinely lovely people who made us feel very welcome. The place itself is spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy bed. The garden is perfect for dogs, totally secluded and furnished nicely. There are plenty of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great places to eat-The Star and The Maypole being our favourites. Wed definitely recommend it!"

"We recently stayed for four nights with our dog and honestly, we had such a lovely time. The site is really peaceful and well-equipped, perfect if you're after some proper relaxation. The views from the lodge were stunning and theres plenty to explore nearby, which kept us busy. Were already planning to come back for a week over Christmas and New Year! The Hillside Cabin was tucked away but had everything we needed and it felt super cosy. Sad to leave, but well definitely return!"

"We really enjoyed staying at this charming cottage. The log burner and hot tub made it extra special. Hosts were lovely, hope to come back!"

"Great experience, definitely coming back soon enough."

"While the gas oven was a bit noisy and took some getting used to, the lodge itself was fantastic-spotlessly clean, super comfy and well stocked. We definitely want to come back. A plug-in fly zapper would be a nice addition, though. Overall, really enjoyed our stay!"

"Great vibe, would definitely return"

"Really enjoyed our stay, the place had everything needed."

"Really loved the tranquil vibe here, jacuzzi was a highlight for sure!"

"We stayed at the lodge recently and found it quite okay, though it could do with more cutlery and plates, honestly. The hot tubs location was a bit inconvenient, being away from the lodge and not very private-wouldve been better if it was on the decking for some seclusion. The activity schedule was limited to Tuesdays and Saturdays, which was a shame since more frequent options would be great. We thought the value for money was pretty good, but our boys, aged 14 and 15, couldnt use the pool or spa alone, even though theyre good swimmers-they needed an adult with them. As for exploring, walking off-site isnt really an option, as the lane is muddy and narrow. Surprisingly, Newtown had quite a few shops and wed definitely return there sometime. All in all, not bad, but some improvements would make it perfect!"

"The cabin had stunning hillside views and overall everything was quite lovely. Only issue was the toilet door-couldn't close fully."

"Really enjoyed staying here, the outdoor space and hot tub are fantastic!"

"We had a fantastic stay! The lodge was super clean and had everything we needed. The hot tub and fire pit were perfect for unwinding after a day exploring. Absolutely loved it!"

"We really enjoyed our stay here. The peaceful vibe was perfect for relaxing. The garden is great for dogs!"

"We had a fantastic stay at this lovely spot tucked away in such a peaceful, private setting. The owners are genuinely friendly and always happy to help if needed, but it still feels quite secluded. The hot tub was a real treat after a long day of cycling - perfect! A little heads up, the cottage is right under Stansted's flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a couple of hours to get used to it, but honestly, it didnt ruin our holiday at all. Wed definitely come back!"

"Really enjoyed the lovely setting, especially walking around the fields with the dogs-such a relaxing day!"

"We really enjoyed our visit! The fields were lovely and walking with the dogs was a treat."

"We had a really relaxing stay. The cottage was spotless, well-stocked and some nice little touches made it all the better. Highly recommend!"
