Visitor Reviews of Ashby Woulds Retreat

Emma

Date of stay: 15th December 2021

We had a lovely stay overall, but unfortunately, the lodge we first booked had a terrible gas smell after just one night, so we had to switch. The staff were really helpful with sorting it out, which we appreciated. Aside from that, it was a great trip!

Emma Collins, Lytham St Annes

Date of stay: 4th November 2021

We stayed in an Oak Deluxe before and honestly, we expected a bit more this time. The tablecloth had a tear, which was a bit disappointing and two of the blinds were broken-definitely not what we’d call well-maintained. The place felt quite sparsely furnished and the small TV was a bit of a letdown. No side tables meant we struggled to find spots for our drinks on the sofas. Also, there was a stale cigarette smell lingering, like someone had been smoking with windows open. Beds were quite basic and not super comfy either. Not quite what we hoped for.

Emma, Welwyn Garden City

Date of stay: 21st October 2021

We really enjoyed our stay at Ashby Woulds Retreat! The staff were super welcoming from the moment we arrived. It’s a shame about the early check-out, a later time would be better.

Rachel, Boston

Date of stay: 10th June 2021

Great stay, would definitely return soon!

Emma, Dunstable

Date of stay: 31st August 2020

We had such a lovely break with the girls! Totally chilled out and relaxed, it was exactly what we needed. Booking massages was easy with Monika on arrival and we’re already talking about coming back next year. Highly recommend!

Emily, Sittingbourne

Date of stay: 10th August 2020

A lovely escape! Perfect for unwinding, whether you want to relax or stay active. Can't wait to return soon!

Emma, Coventry

Date of stay: 3rd February 2020

The lodge was spotless and the beds super comfy. The hot tub at the back was perfect for privacy-though beware, it’s pitch black at night without any lighting. We loved it though!

Emma, Gb

Date of stay: 2nd February 2020

Really enjoyed our stay, lovely place, friendly staff, will return soon!

Emily Clarke, Malvern

Date of stay: 3rd January 2020

We managed to snag a bargain thanks to a late cancellation, which was a bonus! Everything else was spot on. Only thing we’d suggest is adding hooks on the inside of the doors - not a big deal, just a handy idea. Totally impressed and already telling our friends about you!

Jess, Gb

Date of stay: 14th October 2019

We had a lovely stay at this place, honestly. The lodge looks really gorgeous and feels quite luxurious, which was great. The only thing that threw us off a bit was the hot tub’s location - didn’t feel very private, especially since it’s not on the front decking. Also, the kitchen wasn’t fully prepared; the oven and pans were a bit grubby, which was a pain when we just wanted to cook. Still, overall, it’s a nice spot to unwind and we’d recommend it to friends.

Claire, Cannock

Date of stay: 29th July 2019

Despite the rainy weather, we really enjoyed the stay. The hot tub was a lifesaver after all that wet weather and the wifi could’ve been better though.

Emma, Warwickshire

Date of stay: 20th May 2019

We had such a lovely break! The lodge was perfect and having the hot tub under cover meant we could enjoy it rain or shine. Loved it!

Rachel, Milford Haven

Date of stay: 13th May 2019

Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge had everything we could possibly need. Would return!

Emma, Sheffield

Date of stay: 19th April 2019

We had a fantastic time at Ashby Woods Retreat! The cabin was really lovely, everything felt top-notch and comfy. We’re already thinking about booking again. The only slight downside was not being able to use the hot tub on our first night, which was a bit of a bummer, but we knew about it when booking. Overall, a great stay and definitely recommend!

Emma, Pontefract

Date of stay: 19th April 2019

Emma, Manchester

Date of stay: 3rd December 2018

Had a lovely time, definitely returning soon. Really good value and a great overall experience.

Emma, Swadlincote

Date of stay: 1st October 2018

We had a lovely weekend overall, but there were a few hiccups. The WiFi was completely down during our stay, which was a bit frustrating. A BT engineer was supposed to come around midday on our first day to sort it out, but he arrived at 8:30 am instead and couldn’t fix it. We also lost satellite signal for a day until we realised my car was blocking the dish - it’s right by the driveway, so easy to miss! We left a message with on-site maintenance but didn’t get a reply, which was a shame. Still, we’d definitely return!

Emma, New Maryland

Date of stay: 18th May 2018

Our stay at Ashby Woulds was quite enjoyable, especially since the trail behind the lodge was perfect for long walks, which we loved. We stayed with my husb and's mum and it was nice to have that extra bit of space. That said, the privacy in the hot tub wasn’t great, especially with nearby lodges so close. One weekend, the noise from the renters across the road was a bit much and we were surprised to see children there too. It’s worth noting that some lodges are freehold, so Ashby Woulds can’t really control who lives on site, which might affect the atmosphere.

Emma Turner, Birmingham

Date of stay: 29th January 2018

Fantastic stay, definitely rebooking for next year!

Emma, Gb

Rachel, Leicester

We had a lovely stay and would definitely come back. Just thinking next time we might pick an off-peak month to save some money. It’s such a nice place to stay!

Emily, Dunstable

Had an awesome break with the girls! Super chill and exactly what we needed to unwind. Booking massages on arrival was easy, thanks to Monika’s lovely help. Definitely planning to come back next year - we loved it and would recommend to anyone!

Emily, Sittingbourne

Great spot to unwind, whether you want activity or just chill out. We’ll be booking again for sure!

Emma, Coventry

The lodge was spotless and the beds super comfy, which we loved. The hot tub at the back was perfect for privacy, though it’s pitch black at night-no lighting at all! Still, a lovely stay.

Emma, Birmingham

Great stay, would happily do again!

James, Lowestoft

Good place, but it would be better with more details about amenities.

Emma, West Sussex

Really enjoyed our stay here

Alex, Bebington

A lovely spot, though a bit pricey, but we’d definitely come back again!

Carol

We have just had the most amazing 3 days here. The lodge was stunning. Very modern and clean. Well equipped. The hot tub was a god send in this hot weather. I honestly cannot find anything negative to say. Will definitely be booking again in a different area. Amazing!!

Jamie

Amazing place fell in love with the log cabin

Coralie

Lovely little find.Will definitely return

Adrian

Lovely lodge, with indoor hot tub, cannot be bettered. Superb

Lorraine

Great, well equipped lodge on a pleasant site. Photos did not do it justice. Spacious and great to have 2 bathrooms. We cooked there too. Great base for getting to Alton Towers, West Midlands zoo, Peak district, all about an hour away. Hot tub was good but couldn't take more than three people without overflowing which was a shame, the only downside

Claire

Beautiful lodge and spotlessly clean the only issue was the bed. Mattress felt cheap and you could feel the springs.

William

Brilliant way to get away and spend quality time with family/ loved ones and have some peace and quiet

Linda

Great location. All staff I spoke to were helpful.

Joanne

Lovely time. Very relaxing and loved the hot tub. Would definitely recommend. Lovely staff from the start to the finish. Thank you.

Margaret

This is a lovely quiet retreat. Lovely lodge, right by pathways into the National forest and close to lots of interesting places to visit. The Spa treatments, absolutely wonderful as well. Just a couple of small things, for feedback. An information pack would have been very helpful. It needed a coffee table, as no where to put down drinks when sitting on very comfy settees. Also needed some outside hooks by the hot tub for hanging robes. The step leading into the hot tub not the most stable and difficult to get into the tub if very short. We had a wonderful stay and fabulous spa treatments. On site staff were helpful. None of the above feedback distracted from a lovely stay. Thank you all.
