6 Badgers Retreat Reviews

Muriel

Lovely, clean, comfortable property. Had everything we actually needed. Might be worth recommending people take enough food supplies to get them through the first evening fortunately we were prepared. 5 pm check in was inconvenient especially in the winter months when it is pitch dark when you arrive having to drive along a narrow, single track, not very well lit road to get there. Very nice area of the country to explore. Some lovely country towns. Local pubs and cafes usually very dog friendly & the people very welcoming. Would consider staying again.

Great stay in a lovely lodge. Very clean and comfortable. Would recommend.

The accommodation was great including, bedding, towels, and kitchen equipment. The heating was great. Cosy sitting area comfy beds and good to have two bathrooms so each couple had there own space. The hot tub was lovely. The actual area is so quite and peaceful but within a short drive of nice places to visit and do any necessary shopping. The four of us would all book again just the problem of only having so much holiday to take.

We spent a lovely weekend at 6 Badgers Retreat! The lodge is fabulous and is set in a beautiful, peaceful location yet is close to lots of local amenities. The lodge offered everything we needed for a comfortable weekend with the hot tub being an added bonus. The location meant that we were able to explore both the Yorkshire Dales and the contrasting North Yorkshire Moors. We will definitely look to return!

The villa is very comfortable and well equipped,this a returning visit and maybe back again

A clean tidy Lodge with all you need for your Holiday We happy that the barrier no longer in action so were able to enter before 5pm as this is later than other places we have stayed in. It would have nice to have known this.We were unlucky in as our heating failed on day 2 of 4 which left us very cold as the weather changed and with no owner contact details in the key box as stated

We had a lovely stay here, nice and clean, would definitely come back.

Beautiful comfy lodge in a beautiful quiet setting, just what we needed. The setting was amazing to sit in the hot tub and just chill. My dog loved the dog walk area . It is a drive to go to surrounding beauty spots but it's so worth it to get back to the peace.

We had a great 5 night stay at 6 Badgers Retreat . The lodge is perfect, very clean, very comfortable, everything you need and the welcome pack was a nice surprise. The area is very quiet and peaceful but you also have Aldi and Tesco just up the road at Catterick Garrison. I would also recommend The Farmers Arms and The Hollyhill Inn for a lovely pub meal. One very small recommendation would be to have a cover over the hot tub as we couldn't use it when it rained. But we still had a lovely time.

Kieran

What a lovely place to stay and just switch off, the accommodation was very comfortable, well serviced and very quiet, just what I wanted All in all, we had an excellent time away and were able to completely switch off from the trials and tribulations of normal life. Will definetly book again.

Thank you very much for the welcome basket. It was very useful. Lovely comfortable stay.

Rosemary

Lovely place and good value for money.

I thought that maybe a coffee table would come in handy

Lovely property on a very quiet site. Enjoyed seeing the lambs, rabbits, pheasants and a couple of deer around the site. Good location with local shops 5 minutes away and Richmond 10 minutes. Property was well equipped with all the home from home comforts the only thing missing was some egg cups and a toast rack. We didnt get to use the hot tub due to the weather, but it could do with being made a little more private. Overall it was a good place to stay and we would recommend. Thank you.

The lodge was beautiful! The retreat was very quiet and peaceful. The beds were incredibly comfortable and when we arrived there was facilities to make a brew and settle in. First impressions were great! The only reason I haven't given it 5 stars is we could have done with bin bags and toilet roll. The internet and TV in the main living area worked intermittently and the TV in the bedroom I couldn't get to work at all but these are only minor things. The owner was friendly and communication was good. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others for sure!

Lovely place and communication great. Hot tub was cold on arrival so first night we couldn't use it. Its also not very private with viewings going on above looking down. The extractor hood didn't work. I did notice there were a lot of cobwebs in the property which was mentioned on another review. The area has nothing. You can't safely walk to a pub. So of you want absolutely nothing then its good. We got a little bored. Beds comfy. WiFi good. Hottub nice once hot. Just dropped 2 stars for the location and cobwebs.

Charlotte

Really enjoyed this getaway. Ideal for a quiet break. Would love to go back again.

Timothy

Lovely lodge in a very quiet setting. Warm and clean with plenty of space for four. Close to Richmond. Extremely quiet. Lovely hot tub Immaculately kept site.

A lovely, well presented property, very clean and comfortable. Being older people with a dog we found it impossible to access the dog walking fields up the very steep, wet, grass banking. It would be wonderful if the site had some graduated paths up the bankings. With the site being on a busy single track lane, we couldn't walk anywhere off site either. We visited some lovely places in the area when we did drive out, but anyone without transport would be very isolated.

Cheryl

Accomodation was just as advertised. Instuctions were clear and the standard was excellent. The verandah is fully enclosed which is useful for dogsyoung children. We made use of the hot tub which was great The park itself is quiet and the adjacent field is perfect for dogs. 2 very minor comments several bulbs in the kitchenoutside area were not working. Ideally would have appreciated access from 4.00pm

Stephen

Lovely place to spend a quiet week. Weather not the best so didnt really benefit with the hot tub, but that is England

6 Badgers retreat was a home from home warm, clean and comfortable with everything provided that one would need. The only downside was the cleanliness of the outside decking due to thick cobwebs particularly around the gate and hot tub. We would have been happy to see to this but there was not an outside brush this however would not stop us from staying there again.

The property was amazing we fell in love with it straight away. Our 2 boys Teddy & Bailey

Claire

Lovely lodge with excellent clean an hot hottub, all facilities intact an clean, ... Lovely lodge with excellent clean an hot hottub, all facilities intact an clean, very peaceful and relaxing spot, great for a quiet relaxing break, will definitely be coming again thankyou

Lovely lodge great location if your wanting to relax as there is nothing within walking distance.

Lovely lodge, nicely furnished. The dressing table area in the main bedroom was a bit worse for wear. There was everything you could possibly need. The only thing that was disappointing was that the hot tub was not very warm. After a while I was cold and with the temperature not being very good outside it was not as enjoyable as I would have liked.

We had an amazing time. Lovely lodge and hot tub with plenty of places to visit nearby. Lots of shops just up the road including Aldi where we did our main shop. Also quite a few takeaways. Loved the welcome pack we received on arrival, nice touch. Thank you so much.

Barbara

Another great week at this lovely lodge3rd visit but i must say that now new lodges have been placed directly behind no 6 that a full screen is needed around the hot tub because when the new lodges are occupied they will have a birds eye view of anyone using the hot tub at no6. The fridge door needs attention and with no6 being pet friendly a more powerful vacuun cleaner is needed.we would love to return if the privacy issue around the hot tub is addressed

Superb place in a great location for exploring North Yorkshire will definitely recommend! !

Very relaxing break in this quiet location. Easy access via car to lots of nice places. Hot tub a definite bonus. Altogether a very enjoyable stay.

Sharon

Enjoyed our stay clean and tidy but a bit dated Few little touches would bring it Upto the next level . Great area would recommend just a bit of tlc would be good .

Joanne

An absolute hidden gem! !! A wonderful stay, the pictures dont do it justice!! Its much more spacious. I will be returning. ASAP and telling all my family and friends to have a holiday at the lodge! Beautiful surroundings, plenty to see and do. Hot tub was the perfect end to the day I watched the sun set and the stars come out. Perfect! Perfect Perfect!!! Great value for money! Couldnt ask for anything more.

Amanda

Home from home,very comfortable and so peaceful. Everything we needed was in the lodge plus extras and the bed was amazing, slept really well. All facilities in the lodge and nice welcome pack. Would definitely recommend.

Shannon

Such a lovely stay at 6 Badgers Retreat with friends for new year. The lodge was well equipped with everything you needed and just felt like a home from home.We have even recommended family to book in February. The only thing i would say is,the lighting on the decking for the hot tub when its dark. We will definitely be back in the future. Thankyou again for such a lovely stay.

Sharron

Really enjoyed our stay at Badgers Retreat. Lodge was absolutely lovely, very clean and comfortable. To be honest I didn't want to leave. Will definitely be booking for a Winter break again next year as brilliant value for money.

Christine

We had a very enjoyable break. The lodge is very well located and has everything you could possibly need it is very well equipped. The hot tub is a lovely addition. It is very quiet and relaxing and ideal for our 2 dogs.

Nicola

Stunning location and beautiful property. Clean and excellent facilities. Highly recommend

This is a recommended day out for families with young children visiting the Bedale area of Yorkshire. Visit the farm and receive a warm welcome as well as a guided tour. You will have the chance to bottle feed the lambs, bath a pig and handle some of the smaller animals. Kids will love the big sandpit and the outdoor play area. There is also a cafe and indoor play area for when the weather is not on your side.

Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.

For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel. Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things.
