"Spacious accommodation, though perhaps time to update some of the furniture. The mattress had seen better days. But overall comfortable and we had a great time."

"Excellent position with some lovely walks from the lodge and locally. Staff very helpful however lodge looking a little bit tired and could do with some TLC. Nice outlook over the pond with the ducks."

"Our Tilford Woods Lodge Retreat review: We had a fantastic stay at Tilfords Darwin Escapes. The mornings were made special by the ducks, geese and squirrels bustling around while we enjoyed breakfast. The lodge was well-equipped for self-catering and the staff were genuinely friendly. Definitely a relaxing getaway!"

"We had a lovely stay at Tilford Lodge Retreat - perfect if youre after some peace and quiet. The location is great, right next to a huge golf course with plenty of bridle paths for walks. Theres a charming pub just next door and a short stroll to a small coffee shop plus a convenience store, which was handy. The lodges are well-equipped and we really appreciated the underfloor heating and dishwasher - definitely a plus! The only thing is parkings a bit tight with just one space per lodge, though you can sometimes snag a visitor spot. The lodges are quite close together, so we did get woken up early by neighbours chatting outside our window, but I guess its just luck with whos staying there. Overall, wed happily come back!"

"Our lodge was beautiful, very clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could need including complimentary washing up liquid and a tea towel. The hot tub was wonderful and bed was very comfortable. We had some issues with the shower on arrival however, these were quickly resolved by Adam who was so kind and helpful. Very close proximity to a beautiful pub next door which serves excellent food. I would highly recommend and we already can't wait to return."
Mercedes - Nov 2024
"Another great stay @ Tilford Woods Lodge Retreat. Everything you need all under one roof and the Hot Tub as always was a bonus. Our favourite place to unwind and relax every once in a while. We will be back and would recommend to anyone just wanting to escape the hustle and bustle. Lots to do in and around surrounding areas. Look forward to our next time @ Tilford Woods."

"The lodge was generally tidy and served its purpose well. Some areas looked a bit worn out and could use a refresh, but it didnt really affect our stay. We enjoyed a peaceful, quiet weekend, which was exactly what we needed. Not bad at all!"
Martin - Oct 2024
"Overall the lodge was clean and tidy and served it's purpose :)The reason for only 3 Stars was the lodge in parts was looking a little well used and tired. However, we had the quiet peaceful long weekend we required."
Bill - Oct 2024
"We loved how the big glass doors in both the bedroom and sitting area let the outdoors flow right in. Its perfect for relaxing on the deck, soaking up the scenery and spotting wildlife. The peaceful vibe makes it a lovely spot for a quiet romantic getaway for two. Truly, a special place!"
James - Aug 2024
"We really enjoyed the peaceful setting with ducks wandering nearby, but honestly, the lodge could do with some sprucing up and a bit of maintenance. Still, a lovely spot overall!"
Sam - Jul 2024
"The lodge had plenty of room for the three of us. Fridge/freezer, electric hob and microwave. This lodge doesn't have a washing machine, but we didn't need this for our four night stay. Modern looking bathroom."

"We had a lovely weekend here-so peaceful and relaxing. Definitely recommend and well be coming back soon!"
Jamie - Apr 2024
"We really enjoyed our stay here! The area is stunning, with plenty of birds singing all around. The lodge was super well-stocked, making it easy to settle in. We brought some DVDs for cosy movie nights, which was perfect. The shop in reception has a few essentials - handy! There are lovely walks to Frensham Pond and the pub on the corner is great for a drink, even if its always busy - thats usually a good sign, right? Well definitely come back."
Harriet - Mar 2024
"We stayed in the lodge back in January and honestly, it was just what we needed. The staff were genuinely friendly and always ready to help if we had questions. Inside, the lodge was spotless, warm and really well-equipped - everything we needed was there. The best part? The view over the duck pond was absolutely lovely, perfect for some peaceful downtime. Even though we didnt explore much outside, the location worked great for us as a base to visit nearby places. The park itself is right next to a golf course, which meant quick access to a peaceful woodl and walk - lovely for a bit of fresh air. Theres also a small shop on site with all the basics. Our lodge had the best spot, overlooking the pond and Id definitely recommend it if youre after a calm, relaxing break. Wed go back for sure!"

"Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was spotless and super cosy. The forest walks nearby are a bonus!"
George - Jul 2020
"We had a lovely stay at these lodges, really impressed with how spotless everything was. The surroundings are peaceful, perfect for relaxing. The staff were super friendly and made us feel welcome. Plenty of great walks nearby and some charming pubs not far off, which was a bonus. The check-in and check-out times are a bit of a pain, especially with the early checkout, feels like you lose a day. Bathrooms could use extractor fans-showering as a family gets pretty steamy! Also, itd be handy to have a place to dispose of BBQ coal. Still, a great break out of the city!"
Alex Morgan - Jul 2020
"Cozy spot, would return"

Lucy - Jul 2020
"We stayed at Tilford Woods Retreat right at the reopening after COVID and honestly, it was lovely. The staff couldnt be more welcoming and the whole place just looked stunning. The lodge was spotless and that 4-poster bed? It felt like something straight out of a fairy tale! Sadly, only able to stay two nights, but we left feeling so relaxed. Were already planning to come back one day with the kids. Thanks for a proper nice break!"
Charlotte - Jul 2020
"We had a lovely stay here! The scenery was stunning and perfect for relaxing walks. The facilities are quite nice, though we did find the WiFi pretty patchy which was a bit of a pain. The shower was a bit temperamental, fluctuating between warm and quite hot, but overall, its a great spot for a getaway. Would definitely recommend!"
Oliver - Dec 2019
"A wonderful mid-week family break.
Tranquil and peaceful - a perfect way to unwind.
We filled out days with Go Ape at Alice Holt Woods; walking there and along Basingstoke canal; swimming, lunch and exploring in Guildford; On the beach at Bournemouth; and relaxed in the evening in our lovely lodge or a short safe stroll to the Duke of Cambridge pub"

Linda - Jul 2022
"Excellent park, that is tranquil and well maintained. Staff are excellent and one of the few helpful people who helped us out with a major issue we had on holiday. Beautiful location but a car is essential. Wifi is excellent, included and unrestricted."
