We have just got back from spending 3 nights at the beautiful retreat. We had a relaxing time with our 2 dogs. The retreat is cosy, warm, well planned out and very spacious. The bed is extremely comfortable and our dogs were also catered for too. Carol & Ron have given it the personal touch and welcome you as friends. They gave me a beautiful birthday gift too. Seeing our dogs have the freedom they did in a safe and secure area was wonderful. We enjoyed watching all the wildlife in the grounds whilst sitting on the veranda with a coffee. I didn't think you could mentally and physically wear out a Border Collie and German Shepherd but they were. Our dogs laid on the grass as we loaded the car and refused to get up or get into the car. Lots of beautiful walks all local & shops as well. We will definitely be going back.

My husband and I stayed at The Retreat for a week in November, and we have to say it was amazing. We stepped into the lodge and it felt like we actually were in Africa. The place was amazing and so comfortable. We took our dog Maya and even she was catered for, there were throws for her so she didn?t have to sit on the floor, and towels to dry her down when she got wet. The owners Carol and Ron were lovely, they greeted us when we arrived and explained everything to us, and were they to say goodbye to. We arrived as strangers but left as friends. They even put a little Christmas tree outside for us along with a birthday present on the porch step when we came back from our day trip.

I would highly recommend the Retreat and we are also looking forward to returning.

We have had an amazing week!

The lodge itself was an ideal size for the two of us and our dog and has everything you could possibly need - if you can think of anything it hasn?t, the owners, Carol and Ron are more than happy to oblige!

The grounds are fabulous. Jasper loved the freedom to roam and explore all the different sights and smells which he did with great enthusiasm. There are lovely, various, carefully thought out areas within the grounds for you to sit and reflect - we even managed to light the fire pit on our final night!

The nature we saw was

I stayed here for Christmas very clean throughout Carol also said that it hasn?t been long built and it?s definitely noticeable as soon as I walked in there was a pleasant new smell it?s very quiet surrounded with wildlife sounds just what you want if you?re looking for peace and quiet. Very friendly and helpful owners who were really helpful from arrival to leaving. There?s also a Tesco and fuel station 5 minutes away which came in really handy! Overall couldn?t fault anything the bed was so comfy shower room stunning the kitchen and utensils all top qualit

Back from our 4 night stay at The Retreat. One word...Wow. The directions given to us by Carol the owner were spot on. Very easy to find. The Retreat was just perfect, loved the safari theme, everything you could need was there. Very clean, cosy, set in lovely grounds and just so peaceful. The amenities are five minutes walk away for food and the local pub which, we would highly recommend for a night out. If you just wanted a relaxing night then a night in at The Retreat this is for you. The veranda is just perfect with the hammocks to just sit
