Winston Farm Lodges Reviews

"The location by the canal is fantastic, really peaceful. Inside was spotless and had all the essentials. The outdoor furniture and hot tub were just the cherry on top!"

"The build quality is solid, no expenses spared there. Some extra outdoor lighting would help and a TV in the bedroom would be nice too."

"The lodge was super cosy and had stunning views all around-canal boats drifting by on one side and peaceful countryside on the other. Really quite lovely, wed return for sure!"

"Just got back from a lovely short break at Winston Farm Lodges and honestly, we had a fantastic time! After doing quite a bit of research, we decided to go for the Kingfisher lodge and it truly lived up to expectations. The place is spotlessly clean and kept to a really high standard - you can tell the owners take pride in their maintenance. The little touches, like milk and eggs in the fridge when we arrived, made us feel really welcomed. Plus, there was salt and pepper on the table, which you dont often find in rental places. We had asked beforehand if the twin room could be made into a super king and they had no issue with it - the two singles actually made a huge comfy bed for us. The layout of the lodge was perfect for us as two couples without kids. Having the bedrooms at opposite ends with the living and kitchen area in the middle gave us plenty of space and privacy. Both bathrooms are large and luxurious too, which is a big plus. Steve and Claire, our hosts, were lovely - Steve popped by daily to check on the hot tub and even arrived one day with a bunch of sausages, which was such a sweet gesture. Weve never had that kind of hospitality before. We also met Steves dad, Tony, whos a real character and an absolute pleasure to chat with. The best part? The lodges close proximity to the canal. We couldnt get enough watching the narrow boats go by - its so peaceful and pretty. Were already planning to come back for a two-week stay in the Heron lodge during the summer, especially to enjoy the outdoor space more. A huge thanks to Steve, Claire and the whole team - were really looking forward to returning soon!"

"Our Winston Farm Lodges review: Really enjoyed our stay here"

"We had an amazing time during our stay! The lodge, Kingfisher, was perfect for our family of four-really spacious and well-equipped. The location is stunning, with plenty of great days out nearby. Coming back to the hot tub after a busy day was such a treat, especially with young kids in tow. The hosts were friendly and made everything easy. Honestly, we loved it so much that weve already booked for next Easter. Cant wait to go back! Its a lovely place for a relaxing break."

"We had a lovely time celebrating our 48th wedding anniversary here. The atmosphere was great and were definitely planning to visit again in summer for the outdoor patio!"

"The bed was softer than I like, but overall, our stay was fantastic. We really enjoyed it and definitely plan to return sometime soon. Great experience!"

"We loved the location - open fields, canal boats, plenty of wildlife and very little traffic. The lodge was lovely, but the bed was a bit too soft for us."

"We stayed in a stunning modern lodge that was spotless and really well-maintained. The WiFi was solid and having onsite Netflix was a real bonus-no messing about logging in. Honestly, its one of the nicest lodges we've experienced and weve done quite a few high-end retreats. Definitely recommend for a relaxing break!"

"We loved this lodge-definitely the nicest we've stayed in! Absolutely stunning place."

"Really enjoyed it, would recommend!"

"Honestly, this lodge blew us away. The rooms are super spacious and well laid out, really high quality stuff. Loved the peaceful spot by the canal, surrounded by farml and. Claire and Steve are such lovely hosts. Were really glad we stayed for a week!"

"The lodge is absolutely stunning and we loved being among the first to stay there. The surroundings are gorgeous and we can't wait to return soon!"

"Best weekend we have had away kids loved it and hosts was amazing would recommend it to everyone"

"Lovely, peaceful location right beside the canal. The site is very well maintained and the owners are very friendly and welcoming, even bringing over sausages and steak from the farm. Lots of picturesque places to visit within easy driving distance, and lovely walks along the canal. We had a great week and will definitely return."

"Absolutely lovely! The lodge was spacious, clean and well maintained. The surroundings were peaceful with just the gentle passing of narrowboats along the canal. The hot tub and decking perfect for a summer evening. We arrived to find fresh eggs and milk. Later the owner popped round (along with the children, the dog and a lamb in tow) to make sure we’d settled in ok and delivered some fresh steaks and sausages. The personal touches of this family run business would be lost on a larger commercial operation. If you want a relaxing break away this comes highly recommended."

"We had a fantastic break. The lodge was exceptional and the owners were so helpful. Would most definitely recommend as the best lodge we’ve stayed in."

"As always Steve you do a great job going that extra mile to make everyone’s holiday special see you again next year Thanks John & Karen"

"Fabulous location of this very comfortable lodge where you sit on the huge deck area and watch the narrow boats go past. The accommodation is really comfortable and the owners are lovely people who responded really quickly when we had a small problem with the lodge. They even bring some fresh steak and sausages which were fabulous.
If you want a chilled break in lovely surroundings give this a go."

"Beautiful surroundings right by the canal , if you want a quiet and peaceful weekend then this place is just that , was very clean and beautiful lodge ,the people who own it was lovely they even gave us some steak and sausages to cook on the barbecue, would definitely go back ?"

"Absolutely fabulous break…..location and lodge were excellent."

"Our 2nd visit to Lapwing. Beautiful spot right by the Shropshire Union Canal. Lodge was spotlessly clean, lovely fixtures/fittings/bedding/towels including towels and gowns for hot tub. Washing machine, dishwasher,oven,gas job and fridge freezer. Very rarely at lodges do you get outside sofas as well as table and chairs and such a big patio that you have at Winston Farm. Welcome pack was a nice gesture.
The Mere at Ellesmere, Chick Castle, Chester Zoo and Llangollen all worth visiting.
Only suggestions we could make was for more hangers or a set of draws inside wardrobes."

"Lovely holiday in comfortable lodge in peaceful, tranquil setting with beautiful views. A perfect spot to unwind."

"Such a lovely place to get away and the owners are great too"

"Fantastic, relaxing, just what was needed and glorious weather as well. Everything spot on will return."

"Lovely lodge, owners very friendly and helpful, peaceful tranquil location, great amenities in Ellesmere too, would thoroughly recommend"

"Lovely cabin in a lovely location right by the canal. Everything you need for a peaceful break. Well recommended."

"Absolutely beautiful setting. Situated right on the canal. Lovely tow path walks The owners left us eggs, biscuits and milk and then brought us sausages, lovely people."
