    There was nothing I did not like at all. In fact I have booked again for later in the year, knowing I will not have any concerns about staying there.

    Breakfast was just what I asked for. Location was just what I needed. Host was very accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. I had all the space I needed to complete a project I brought with me. Very peaceful place.

    Every morning, Peter would ask us what we would like for the next day, and would get anything we wanted. On both mornings we had his cooked breakfast which was absolutely brilliant both days. We also had our own breakfast room outside our suite(we were in the garden suite) separate from our suite. Peter was a really nice guy, always willing to have a chat, ask you how your room is and answer any questions we had. He also gives you a discount at the local pub, which was very nice as well.

    There was nothing we didn't like.

    Peter provides a bespoke service. The rooms in the suite were lovely, so original and very clean. Very comfy bed and such a beautiful private space. This is something you would never find in a hotel. The breakfasts were amazing and you just pick exactly what you want for breakfast. Such a nice touch that Peter just insisted we had a complimentary glass of wine when we arrived- really lovely touch after a long, tiring journey. Also complimentary tea, coffee, chilled water and sherry in the room with fresh milk provided as and when you need it. Beds were super comfy and bathroom was spotlessly clean.

    Peter was an amazing host, very welcoming. Room was clean, cosy and we absolutely loved the interior design. The garden was lovely too. Bed was very comfortable and we had a great sleep. Would highly recommend to anyone. We will definitely book again.

    Please see above. Peter has made the lodge an ultimate stay.

    Peter is an exceptional host and second to none. When he states bespoke, the Lodge exceeds any expectations and I am hard to please. This is by far the best experience of a b+b I have ever had. Personally I cannot class the Lodge as a b+b but an experience.

    the pub food was ok but only ok in my opinion. other than that, nothing.

    I do tend to write reviews, both good and bad. Check out my other reviews. I try hard to be fair. I rarely use superlatives because superlatives are rarely deserved. Not in this case. This place is superb. We booked into the Garden Suite which itself was exceptional for the price. However, unexpectedly, the larger suite was available and Peter the perfect host suggested we have a look. Wow! A little more expensive than the Garden Suite but frankly Peter could have charged twice that differential and I would still have taken the larger suite. Over two floors. Ground floor has a dinning table exclusive to the suite and where breakfast is served. There was also a baby Grand Piano to add to the palatial feel. Upstairs is huge. Very tastefully decorated in an Asian style with tasteful and interesting fixtures and fittings. It really 'worked'. There was a large and comfortable lounge area, a very comfortable and large double bed with tiger tripe bed set that managed to look classy rather than tacky. The view from the bed through some 'designer' Asian theme trees framing what seemed an endless English countryside at its best view accross a gold course. An ample and spotlessly clean bathroom in the middle and another bed and lounge area, a little smaller but very much complimentary and in sympathy with the overall look and feel. Another small balcony looking onto the front garden area, some private parking exclusive to The Lodge and then accross the road to a school and beyond. I stood on that balcony for over fifteen minutes at around 9:30pm and not one car passed by. It was so quiet. We had an adequate evening meal at the pub five minutes down the road. We were able to specify specific breakfast requirements by texting Peter. The breakfast was fresh cooked and served and as good as any breakfast I have had anywhere. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Thanks Peter! Steve.

    Fantastic boutique hotel as just two suites,but very comfortable, homely and all facilities. Can sleep 3 in one suite and I think 5 in other, so good combination. Owner, Peter, has built the perfect lodge and was an excellent and attentive host, I’ve already booked place out for next visit to Nottingham in February.

    Loved everything about my stay. The setting is a little haven in an already beautiful village. Peter is an excellent host and was there to greet me on arrival and helped me to the room with my bags. The suite was more than I would ever expect from a BandB, really was luxury with every comfort on hand. I did not want to leave and will be back the first chance I get.
