Lynsey and Darren do a great job with these cottages, very clean and well maintained, and the hot tub was cleaned and topped up throughout the week by Darren. They are super friendly owners and the welcome pack of milk and fresh scones were so good, we bought more off them later. Great spaces to walk the dogs in the morning both enclosed and not. WRead moree will def be back! Hide

Very friendly and helpful lovely place really enjoyed our stay
Chrissy
We had a lovely week here, great for the dogs with the enclosed front and rear gardens. Hot tub was lovely to come back to after a day out exploring. Barn was fully equipped with everything you need they really have thought of everything even coffee, milk sugar and tea and I thought the dogs beds and water bowls and a bag of treats each were really nice touch. We will definitely be booking again. Owners Darren & Lindsey were very helpful and pleasant 5
Carolyn
We loved our stay seeing the sun rise across the field from our front door and window was exceptional. The hot tub was fantastic well kept by owners. We all felt so relaxed and regenerated from our stay. Only down point is that our dog was not allowed upstairs in bedrooms, we can understand why the owners ask this but had we of known before booking we would not of booked as she has been brought up sleeping upstairs with the family. Thank you for our stay
Steve
Lyndsey and Darren were extremely obliging as nothing was too much trouble. Thanks for the loan of the fishing rod Darren. We had a few nice sized carp 7-10 pounds and they looked very healthy too. The hot tub was a lovely extra after a day's sightseeing. We were able to park our car right outside the property. The weather was superb for our week a nd we were able to catch the sun in the morning at the front in the garden and in the courtyard at the rear later on. Perfect!
Sandra
We have just spent a week at Badger Farm Lakes, the property is very comfortable, well equipped, and spacious. The added bonus was the outside seating area, and a hot tub. All of which are very well maintained. Darren and Lyndsey are very good hosts, nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely recommend.
