Skylark Retreat Reviews

Carla
Lovely place and fully equipped in all appliances , lovely surroundings and very clean and accommodating highly recommended
Patricia
We just love it here, it's our fourth time and we find it so relaxing.
Katie
Amazing place, beautiful surroundings and great company. The only thing I would change would have been the pillows in some of the bedrooms. The ones in the twin room were really hard but that is a personal preference. We really enjoyed our stay and will be coming back again.
Valerie
This property was the best weve stayed in to date and most definitely 5* with all the facilities. It was spacious and certainly baby/toddler friendly which was important to us. We put the outdoor settee at the top of the steps near the hot tub for safety for the toddlers. 4 bedrooms allowed us to give the toddlers a room each. All 4 bedrooms have eRead moren-suites was an added bonus. The hot tub was fabulous. Hide
Maggie
Lovely location. Beautiful Lodge/Hot tub. Any problems and there was always someone to help on the phone. Would definitely recommend and look forward to a return visit.
Ian
The property provided spacious, well-planned accommodation for our party of 8, was clean, and generally very well equipped and in good decorative order. It is set in attractive, well-maintained grounds with some facilities for visitors. Provision of toiletries and other consumables was much appreciated. Refrigeration was insufficient for 8 people f or longer than a weekend. The hot tub was of course a great favourite.
Carol
What a wonderful family sized lodge with levels of comfort well in excess of many similar lodges we have stayed at. Wonderful large hot tub. Fantastic open space provided with playground and ample grassed areas for games. Kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with everything you would need. Very high quality & comfortable rattan dining and loungin g furniture on the magnificent wrap around decking. Peaceful location with the shared access of 4 lodges with ample parking for 4 cars per lodge.
Sarah
Lovely property in a lovely setting. There were 8 of us. The four en suite bedrooms ideal. The properties look out onto a green area and otherwise surrounded by fields. The hot tub in the skylark retreat sat 5. The other properties had hot tubs that sat 8. The properties are built to park cars there. Most of us took the train and there was an issue with taxi companies coming out to that location. Jeff and burgess taxis were the best when others refused and were really reasonable.
Chris
Lovely, quiet location, the Skylark Retreat was everything we had hoped for. The layout is well done and roomy allowing you relax in comfort. The hot tub was great for all young and older. Full use was made of the tennis court and play area. Quality fittings throughout. Great venue to catch up with friends from further away.
Annabel
Beautifully presented, extremely clean & amazing facilities. Felt very homely and had everything you could possibly need. Fantastic place will definitely be returning.
Louise
Superb lodge, well equipped and very comfortable. The 4 bathrooms were a big plus as there were 8 of us in our group. The hot tub and peaceful surroundings are idyllic. We're definitely planning to return and would recommend to anyone wanting to relax and recharge!
Jennifer
Wonderful cottage in a lovely setting for family gatherings. Everything you need was available for a relaxing holiday. We would thoroughly recommend Skylark Cottage for a holiday or just some time out to relax you will not be disappointed.
Patricia
2nd stay looking to come back it's peaceful and idyllic and the whole family loved the relaxing week
