Woodland Lodge Reviews

The owners were warm and welcoming whilst still respecting our privacy. The property is charming clean and comfortable, containing everything we needed for our stay. What a beautiful place! We will certainly make the time to go again as soon as we can.

A really lovely cottage set in a beautiful location. Loved the views from the garden, and the hot tub. Very dog friendly, lovely owners. Would highly recommend. Thank you for your kind hospitality.

We were really happy with the area and facilities available upon our arrival. The cottage has all that was needed for a comfortable stay. The owner couldn't have done more to make it a homely cottage. Staying over Christmas the cottage was decorated very traditionally which was lovely. Would definitely recommend and may hopefully return.

Edward

I would highly recommend woodland lodge. The building is stunning and the surroundings are beautiful. The inclosed garden is great if you have dogs, not to mention the hot tub and the wood burner. Ive just come back from a four night stay and would 100 go back. I would like to also mention the owners Ian and Joanne are really friendly and helpful

What a beautiful place to stay. Very cosy, comfortable, and set in the most beautiful grounds. We were there for 2 weeks and could have stayed longer. We were made very welcome by Joanne and Ian great hosts. Walks from your doorstep were a bonus and the hot tub was a delight private & perfect for after walk relaxing. So many lovely places to visit within 2030 mins car drive. Highly recommend a visit. Thank you for the perfect place to relax and recharge the batteries.

Truly the best week away ever. If youre thinking of booking this place, DO IT! Jo, Ian and their daughter were lovely anything we needed was provided. The cottage was extremely cosy and clean upon arrival. There were clear instructions for everything. I dont even know what to say as everything was 1010 the hot tub was amazing, the bed was comfy, our dog Kobe had the best week ever running around the enclosed garden. Kobe is a flight risk hes only 1 so his recall isnt the best and I felt safe with him off lead in the garden. The facilities were excellent the kitchen was great to cook in with all utensils and kit provided. The bathroom was lovely. We got to do our washing and drying while away which is a BIG help for returning home and not having to do it here!! The area is also fantastic as well so lush and green, nice and remote, plenty of places to eat out, good walks, nature. We will be coming back next year. The owners are truly running a fabulous place, just amazing. Thank you again Amy, Ryan and Kobe Liverpool

Had an amazing 4 day break at Woodland Lodge. Very homely accommodation with plenty of space but also a cosy feeling with the open fire. Did not explore the area much as just wanted the time to relax, read and enjoy the hot tub. Although had a lovely Sunday lunch at The Bluebell Inn

Meredith

Woodland Lodge is the perfect wholesome and peaceful staycation! We had the best 3 nights with our dog. Its a great location for exploring the Peak District, brilliant walks, charming small market towns & delicious food surrounds this cottage! Woodland Lodge felt a home from home & we didnt want to leave, we will absoutely be booking back in! The owners were absoutely lovely, so accommodating & even introduced me to Ollie and their 3 ponies that I had been dying to stroke!! A brilliant stay, wouldnt want to stay anywhere else when visiting the peaks!

Graham

What a fantastic stay we had in the lovely Woodland Lodge, super place lovely hosts and lovely weather and superbly kitted out property .

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage for a week. What a wonderful, peaceful place and everyone is so friendly. We took a walk to the local village which was lovely and it was a great base for days out. We took our small dog who enjoyed the enclosed garden area and the walks of course! The cottage was very cosy with plenty of room, kitchen and bedroom was spacious and the lounge area was very comfortable. You will not be disappointed, great hosts, top property and lovely area.

Sharone

We had the privilege to spend a week at the cottage. The cottage and hot tub we're amazing and the scenery beautiful.

We had a fabulous week at Shaw Wood Farm. The lodge Woodland was beautiful, clean and so peaceful. Ian and Jo made us feel so welcome and the little thoughtful touches in the lodge were lovely. Everything we needed was there. We look forward to visiting again next year.

Stuart

A FANTASTIC break. The cottage was perfect with everything you needed to both unwind and explore the beauty of Derbyshire, knowing that you had a warm and cosy base to return too. Lovely walks right on the doorstep with Bluebell woods just seconds away. The hosts were brilliant, so friendly and helpful and if you get the chance, make sure you say hello to ROLO, there lovely fourlegged friend. Now we have our own dog we only holiday in the UK and look for nice 'dog friendly' places to stay. This was the BEST YET! Thank you so much.

Stewart

Our second stay at Woodlands Lodge, I am sure it wont be the last. Friendly hosts, great accommodation, spotlessly clean great enclosed garden so Phoebe our hound could also enjoy the holiday. Restful and quiet everything we wanted, oh and the hot tub superb.

Lovely cottage & everything as described. Hosts were welcoming and then left us to it which was great. Recommend that guests take the time to read the information book. White Hart at Duffield very welcoming.

Stephen

A quality cottage, extremely well renovated by the current owners in a beautiful location. Anyone looking for a stay in this area would struggle to find better accommodation in this price range. Hosts were very friendly & accessible if needed, couldn't recommend more.

Norman

Enjoyed a fantastic week at Woodland Lodge with stunning views from the hot tub and cozy evenings Infront of a roaring log fire. Just perfect 1010.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay welcome basket of goodies on arrival Jo and Ian were the perfect hosts we had extra visitors 3 wasps nests in the eaves and attic space l panicked as allergic to wasp stings but Jo and Ian were very prompt in getting the Wasp Busters in the next day ! So panic over , Loved the Hot Tub so relaxing l must see about getting one ha ha our Little Dog Dottie loved Sunny the pony and Meg who is amazing with her yellow ball wouldnt hesitate in returning as soon as we can Xx

Michelle

What beautiful place in a lovely area of the country. Our accommodation was Woodland Lodge and was perfect. It had all we need and more for our stay over the New Year period. Ian & Joanne the owners are so lovely & friendly we loved the log fire, hot tub & our fur balls Marley & Storm loved the large enclosed garden to play and have fun. Would love to return again and this place is definitely on our favourites list. Thank you Ian & Joanne for an amazing break.

Catherine

The property is beautiful we stayed for Xmas and it was beautifully decorated. Very relaxing quiet stay the dog loved it. Fab time would highly recommend

ie-ann

Wonderful stay in this huge cottage. So beautiful. Tastefully decorated for Christmas. Very secure setting because of the double sets of gates. Basket of logs and firelighterskindling were provided which was a nice touch. Cottage was spotless clean. Bed was very comfy but it is set up as a double so give them notice if you want singles. Hot tub is delightful but take a bluetooth speaker if you want to play music. Garden is secure for dogs. So peaceful except for the odd speeding train which you only hear from the garden. Only negative was no shampooshower gel. I didn't think to take my own.

Stuart

This is the third time we have stayed at Woodland Lodge and each time it has been fantastic. A beautiful setting, clean, comfortable home from home. Loads to do in the surrounding areas. Would highly recommend this as a place to stay, I'm sure we will be booking again in the future.

Idyllic property, the hottub was wonderful and the area so peaceful. The cottage was very comfortable with a good range of kitchen equipment. Ian and Joanne were friendly and helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A lovely, well maintained cottage in a fantastic location which was perfect for our time away with our puppy. Plenty of local walks, great places to eat and easy access to towns like Bakewell and Matlock.

Claire

A beautiful, peaceful, home from home! We would highly recommend Woodland Lodge. Everything you need is on the doorstep. The walled garden was super safe for our dogs, hot tub for after long walks to relax into. The owners of the property were always on hand if needed and really lovely. Perfect getaway! Thank you so much.

Woodland Lodge exceeded our expectations. It really is homely , warm and peaceful . The owners have made it really comfortable and cozy and the garden and surrounding walks fields and forest are a delight. Everything in the property was perfect and the log burner and hot tub made it that bit more special . Although secluded and peaceful the proximity to villages , roads and attractions in the Dales is great . A definite must to visit Thankyou Ian and Jo

Absolutely amazing cottage, well equipped, and owners where lovely, beautiful ... Absolutely amazing cottage, well equipped, and owners where lovely, beautiful walk right on your step, will definitely be coming back

Stewart

What a relaxing stay in this exceptional cottage. Everything was better than we ever imagined. Great layout and with the absolute benefit of the enclosed garden keeping Phoebe the dog. The hot tub was also fabulous and a great way to unwind in the day.

Beautiful cottage, much more spacious than the pictures suggest. Lovely location and scenery. Sitting in the spa, watching the sun go down over the ruins on the horizon will live long in our memories! Only downside would be noise, which came from 2 main sources. Firstly, the highspeed train line about 50 yards away, and second from the works on the nextdoor site and accompanying site traffic going up and down the lane . It didn't spoil our trip though!

We had a really enjoyable stay, very comfy, and loved the location. Definitely will come again. There is use of a freezer although not mentioned in the description.

Jacquline

This property was just perfect in such an amazing setting. We have a 14 month old and two dogs and I cant recommend this cottage enough. Walks on your doorstep and easy reach of all amenities including local pubs within walking distance for food and drinks. We will definitely stay again! Extra comfy bed too and such beautiful original features and setting. Nothing was too much trouble and extremely friendly and helpful host. Beautiful private secure garden with hot tub, pergola and wooden swing. Truly beautiful and thank you for sharing such a beautiful property.

Outstanding property for a truly relaxing break. The Lodge was spotless and had everything we needed for our holiday. The bed is so comfortable and results in a fantastic night sleep. Hot tub well cared for and clean with lovely views of the surrounding countryside. Definitely on our return listthanks for a wonderful stay

Louise

Fabulous cottage. Location perfect. Hot tub a bonus. Great secure garden, wonderful for the dogs, also great that dogs were allowed. Lovely walks on the doorstep, not far to the village if you wanted the pub. Really lovely little break for me. Would've been good to have a freezer......only to make ice cubes, but I'm just being picky because truly couldn't fault it. Xx

Ian and Jo thank you for your hospitality. You have created something special and its been an absolute pleasure staying at Woodland Lodge. Couldnt have asked for a more welcoming and relaxing place and even in the cold weather the hot tub makes it that little bit more amazing. It was our second visit and we hope to be back next year. Thank you!!

Allison

We had a wonderful stay in a beautiful cozy cottage. Every room Is to a very high standard. The owners have clearly put a lot of thought and effort into making their guests comfortable and have certainly made the place literally feel like you could Live there. The surroundings are superb and ideal for a quiet luxury getaway. We wouldnt hesitate to rebook. Allie Bray.
