The hype
A peaceful woodland retreat with great hot tubs and lovely scenery, but the cabins are a bit dated.
Brockwood Hall Lodges
$150-$250 / noapte
Rezervă dacă You want a secluded, nature-immersed cabin getaway in the Lake District with your own private hot tub and roaming peacocks.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Private outdoor hot tubs checked daily
- Dozens of friendly peacocks roaming the grounds
- Stunning, remote views of the Whicham Valley
Privire rapidă: The natural setting and hot tubs are fantastic, but the lodges themselves are showing their age and desperately need some TLC.
Evaluat de @brittanynewtonxo: My stay at Brockwood Hall was the ultimate reset. I spent my mornings sipping coffee in the hot tub, watching peacocks wander right up to my cabin. The rustic vibe and quiet woodland walks were exactly what I needed to unplug and slow down.

Curățenie și Întreținere
5.5
- Housekeeping: Hit or miss. The interiors are generally clean upon arrival, but there are complaints about missed details and thin towels.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional, but some guests report dampness and mold in the older lodges, particularly in closed spaces like wardrobes.
- Maintenance: A frequent pain point. Rotten decking fencing, peeling exterior paint, and general wear and tear are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: Beds are made up for arrival, but towels are reported to be thin—definitely bring your own for the hot tub.
- Odors & scents: Some older lodges have a noticeable damp or musty smell when closed up, likely due to the woodland setting and age.

Sfaturi de Insider
- ✨
Bring your own extra towels for the hot tub, as you only get one set and they are quite thin.
- ✨
The peacocks are a major highlight, but keep your doors closed if you don't want them wandering inside your cabin.
- ✨
Stock up on groceries before arriving; it's a rural location and the on-site restaurant has limited hours.
