Holly Lodge Reviews

Elaine

Holly Lodge was a gorgeous place to stay for a short break. The owners left a welcome pack which was much appreciated and very thoughtful. The furnishings and fixtures were of a high standard and very homely. The views outside are stunning and the hot tub was a massive hit with the family. Owners nearby if there were any issues. Would highly recommend staying at Holly Lodge in this lovely area of Wales.

We had a lovely stay at Holly Lodge. It was clean, well equipped, comfortable and great communication from the owners. Welcome basket was a lovely touch. We were a group of 7 adults, a toddler and infant, plus 2 dogs. There was plenty of room for us. The kitchen, dining area was great for cooking and socialising and then the upstairs with the log burner great for relaxing in the evening. The washing machine and dryer were also an added bonus. And of course everyone made full use of the hot tub! We would certainly look at coming back again we enjoyed our time so much the group are making it an annual get together.

A perfect, high standard holiday properly spacious, clean, fully equipped, exactly as shown on website. Arrived to welcome gifts and follow up from owner to ensure our safe arrival and to let us know of his anytime availability should we need it. Having a one year old with us meant that evenings were spent at the Lodge so made full use of the hot tub. We will definitely recommend Holly Lodge to others and would definitely return ourselves. Thank you for a wonderful week

We had a lovely family break at Holly Lodge. The lodge was just perfect, enough space for everyone, spotlessly clean and comfortable, with fantastic views. Also the hot tub was enjoyed by all.

Stephen

Maureen

Fabulous holiday in the most wonderful setting. The lodge was above and beyond our dreams. We had an age range from 90 to 18 and all had a wonderful time. Our 3 dogs also enjoyed themselves.

Beautiful cottage, very peaceful, everything you needed if you didn't want to venture very far but if you did there were some lovely walks and places to visit. Would highly recommend a stay at Holly Lodge,

Patrick

Holly Lodge was everything we wanted from our break. The pictures dont do it justice and the overall service we received from Russell the owner was second to none. Highlights include the hot tub, the privacy, spacious patio, comfortable and large bedrooms and great views. We wouldnt hesitate to book again. Thanks!

Claire

Perfect! Holly Lodge, is adult, child and dog friendly. It is set in a beautiful part of Mid Wales, with stunning views. Spotlessly clean and very welcoming, Holly Lodge offered everything you could wish for a perfect holiday. The hot tub was an added bonus! Russell was a great host not intrusive but helpful if required and the welcome gifts were much appreciated. We didnt want to leave!

The property was stunning. Completely clean, smelled fresh despite being a pet friendly lodge, communication was brilliant. Comfy beds and lovely furniture. It was a home from home and we loved our stay and would go back happily for another stay.

Kirsty

Absolutely loved our stay at Holly Lodge, will definitely be returning.

Most crockerycutlery was mismatched and could do with updating. The oven did work but was VERY slow to reach temperature so most things took twice as long to cook as they should. In general the house could just do with a bit of touching up, painting etc but still a great place to stay

Wonderful cottage and really lovely owners who were so kind and welcoming

Absolutely beautiful lodge for a group of friends. Plenty of space and facilities for everyone. Clean and well equipped for a large group. Lovely location and walks from the front door.

Beautiful lodge so relaxing & comfortable too def stay there again

Matthew

This is an amazing property in a great location. We had the perfect stay and will be back in 2024. The welcome pack was a really nice touch and we couldnt fault the lodge at all, it really was done to a great standard and was so spacious. Thank you

This property is absolutely outstanding we went away as an extended family including our dogs and we had the most relaxing time. The rooms are very comfortable and sizable and there are ample bathroom facilities. We all enjoyed relaxing in front of the log burner upstairs and made much use of the fantastic hottub! The kitchen is really well equipped and there was a lovely welcome message and package for our arrival. Russell is a wonderful host and very kindly even offered to take us to town in his pickup due to the floods whilst we were there! It is a peaceful location surrounded by green fields the garden is very secure. We hope to be back for longer next time!

The lodge was spotlessly clean, the facilities were excellent. Russell the host, was welcoming, friendly and helpful. It is in a wonderful location with local walks as well as being a good base to go further afield. There was good information in the lodge about things to do. Plenty of secure space outside for the dogs and great to unwind in the hot tub at the end of the day. The welcome pack was particularly good, by far the best we have received. We will definitely go back and recommend the property to anyone wishing to spend time with family and friends.

Melissa

Amazing stay at Holly lodge! ! Would 100 recommend to anyone! The lodge is beautiful and to a top spec and super clean, the enclosed outside area is perfect for children and dogs and the hot tub is a lovely bonus! Russell was great such a great help if needed.

The welcome treats were a lovely touch! Location was great and we had lots of days out. Dog friendly, wonderful hot tub and attentive hosts. Would definitely recommend and return. Thank you so much!

A beautiful and perfect location for a family get together and plenty of space and walks for our 3 dogs. The welcome pack and flowers were a lovely touch too. There are a lot of dog friendly places within the area. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our week at Holly Lodge and would recommend this little gem.

Fabulous!! Will definitely be back !!

Valerie

Excellent accommodation, presented to very high standard.

Couldnt fault the cottage in any way. Russell was really helpful with great communication. We had a fantastic time. Such a relaxing location. Just what we needed.

Claire

Just got back from a weekend away at Holly Lodge with the girls and we had the best time. The Lodge itself is immaculate, has absolutely everything that you need and more. There was a welcome gift of flowers, prosecco, coffee, sugar, milk etc and a lovely welcome card from the owners which we all thought was a lovely gesture.

Melissa

We had a fantastic four days at Holly Lodge. Its a lovely venue. The host was attentive but not intrusive. The accommodation was perfect for us. Very very clean, great kitchen and bathrooms. Spacious bedrooms with comfy beds. The dogs were safe in the fenced area. Views are stunning. Very peaceful watching the sheep. Hot tub was very clean and warm a highlight. Would definitely book another stay.

William

We had a wonder stay over a 3 night weekend, the lodge was accurately described and there was plenty of room for 8 people and one dog without it feeling cramped. The owners were nearby if needed. It was lovely to have a bottle of fizz on arrival along with biscuits, coffee, milk and wonderful eggs. The logged burner was amazing as was the hot tub. The lodge would be a perfect place for a large family at Christmas

Holly lodge could not have been any better, spotlessly clean, comfortable, hosts very helpful and some wonderful welcome goodies on arrival that we all enjoyed! Excellent location, a very quiet and relaxing break. We will definitely be returning.

Everything about the accommodation was amazing pictures dont do it justice. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment. The welcome pack and card were a lovely touch. Russell the owner was very helpful advising us places to eat etc that were wheelchairs friendly for one of our guests and when a small item of minimum financial value but high emotional value was left behind he posted it out free of charge. Will be looking to book again later in the year.

Stephanie

Beautiful,clean modern spacious. our second stay we love it here. Owners are easy to contact and very helpful.

Sharon

Holly lodge was a fantastic property. We were a family of 5 plus our dog the lodge was perfect for all of us. The garden was safe and secure for Teddy. Inside the property everything was immaculate. Very well decorated and tastefully furnished to extremely high standards. Everything you could ever need was provided. The welcome pack was beyond generous. Jessicas eggs were beautiful and huge you could tell happy cared for hens had laid them. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub including its built in Bluetooth speakers. The area was good and easy to get to both Shropshire and of course Wales. With supermarkets only 10 minutes drive away in Welshpool. We would have no hesitation in recommending Holly lodge and would love to return . Thankyou to Russell and his family for a very enjoyable comfortable stay.

Shahul

Lovely property, hot tub with wifi was a bless. It was very clean. Landlord was helpful.

Fabulous holiday. Very clean, would definitely recommend Holly Lodge. Very quiet surroundings and easy to get to places. Thank you to Russell and family

Just returned from a fabulous week at Holly Lodge. The lodge was immaculate, with a very generous welcome pack including a bottle of prosecco and a dozen fresh eggs. The property is directly on the Offa's Dyke path and there are many other lovely walks in the immediate area. The host was really helpful and nonintrusive. We visited Montgomery and enjoyed fish and chips whilst exploring 'Monty'. We also visited Berriew, enjoying a lovely walk along the canal and river before enjoying lunch at The Horseshoes pub. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would like to visit the area again.

The pictures of Holly lodge doesn't do it justice. The lodge is fantastic, finished in high specification. All the wood is pure solid wood. 100 spotlessly clean and very impressive. We stayed for 7 days from 20th to 27th may 2022 and we had a fantastic time. Russell and penny were amazing down to earth people. Hot tub was thoroughly checked, cleaned and sanitised daily. While we were there we spotted 36 different varieties of birds which was amazing. One of which was a very rare honey buzzard. Also red kites, buzzards, woodpeckers lots of jackdaws and carion crows, Swift's and swallows. Holly lodge is a must stay for bird watchers like us as we were amazed at what we were seeing. Also lots of wild rabbits at the top of the field to which we were only 4 feet away from them. Suggest a good pair of binoculars or high zoom camera to get the best pictures. Also Jessica's chicken's freshly laid chicken eggs were scrummy and lovely we loved them so much we purchased 2 and a half dozen before we left as we have never tasted eggs so good. The views from Holly lodge were brilliant, nice and silent throughout the day and night. Shops were not far away and Powys castle was 10 minutes away and is a must visit place it's breathtaking inside and out. We will definitely 100 be booking again as this lodge is truly amazing and spectacular. Thanks once again to the owners for a chance to stay at such a beautiful, well equipped, very high specification lodge......Simon Moreton...

Michelle

A beautiful property in a lovely relaxing setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Holly Lodge. Plenty of space for six adults and a dog to spread out.
