About this property
Secluded, rural retreat nestled in Sherwood Forest, with hot tub
Self catering accommodation for up to 6 guests in the heart of Sherwood Forest, home of the legendary Robin Hood. Self contained within its own secure grounds and with a private 6 person hot tub, the lodge affords easy access to a variety of tourist attractions, activities and a large network of cycle trails and woodland walks literally from the door whilst simultaneously offering a secluded, private and peaceful base from which to enjoy the forest.
The internal log beams create a unique and tranquil atmosphere whilst the underfloor heating and log burner will ensure you stay cosy and warm in the coldest of winters. A complimentary bag of logs is provided but further bags can be purchased for £4 per bag (cost price).
The lodge has 3 bedrooms with an en-suite attached to the master. There are SMART TV’s in the living area and in all 3 bedrooms. All have DVD players (Blu-ray player in the living area) and all but one have Freesat. Two of the bedrooms can be arranged as either twins or doubles (Superkings) whilst the master bedroom features a bespoke handmade character Kingsize log bed. There is a fully equipped kitchen which incorporates a built in oven and induction hob, an eye-level microwave, fridge-freezer, washer-dryer and dishwasher. The main bathroom has a bath with shower above and there is an additional walk-in shower in the en-suite.
The lodge also has Fibre to the Premises WiFi at no extra cost to guests.
A travel cot & high chair are available on request at no extra charge.
Outside there is ample private parking for 3 cars, a 6 person hot-tub and a covered seating/dining area with gas BBQ. The lodge can be rented without use of the hot tub for a reduced price. Please send an enquiry to obtain a quote. 2 night stays are also available but generally only without use of the hot tub.
Pets are very welcome at the lodge as they are just as much part of the family as their human counterparts. Up to 3 well behaved dogs/cats are included at no extra charge. Additional dogs/cats are charged at £10 per stay per pet. There is no specific limit on the number of pets accepted provided they can be reasonably accommodated in the lodge. There are no restrictions on where pets are allowed, all I ask is that guests either bring throws to protect my bedding if they would like their pets to have access to the bedrooms - or being their own bedding. The garden is fully enclosed, mostly by 6 foot solid timber fencing. There is a small section along the front of the property consisting of 2 parallel rows of wire mesh fencing which is much lower but there is a mature, dense laurel hedge running along this section, the branches of which criss-cross tightly over the top of the fencing.
Tourist attractions within just a few minutes drive of the lodge include:
Sherwood Forest Visitors Centre including the famous Major Oak Go Ape Newstead Abbey Rufford Abbey & country park Clumber Park Thoresby Hall and Park Sherwood Pines Visitors Centre including cycle hire, Segways & disc golf Wheelgate Theme and Water Park Whitepost Farm Adrenalin Jungle Lockwell Hill Activity Centre The Holocaust Centre
