Richard
Spacious but cosy. Loads of character and well equipped. Great walks right from the door. Friendly welcome.
Michelle
We had a lovely stay at woodland lodge. It was the best place we have stayed with our dogs. The lodge is much bigger than we expected, very comfortable chairs and bed. A well equipped farmhouse kitchen everything you need. The large soft towels were such a treat for a holiday let! There were so many lovely touches that made it feel like home for our week. The garden is secure for the dogs and a lovely place to be. The hot tub was amazing. It was the perfect base for some great walks. The owners were so friendly and made is feel very welcome. We would recommend this to anyone as the perfect holiday retreat.
Magnificent lodge in an idlic location. Excellent break in front of log fire and relaxing in hot tub. Spacious accomadation. Friendly accomidating hosts. Only one minor point I would prefer be a larger more powerful shower head.
Such a fabulous place in a gorgeous setting away from the hub of busy life. We were able to control the heating well with both rads and a log burner. The hot tub was lovely and warm, very clean and private. The hot water wasn't particularly hot from any of the taps. Ian came over the following morning when I msg him it unfortunately didn't get any hotter and the showers were warm to tepid with the occasional cold flow. Very well equipped kitchen, comfortable and spacious living and sleeping areas. Would highly recommend.
Woodland Lodge is set in a rural location with lovely woodland walks that belong to the owners that are for your use, The lodge itself is huge with a garden that is fully secure , youre able to use the Hot tub whilst dogs play in the garden . The lodge is fully equipped so need to bring extra bits and bobs. We have already booked again for next year .
Woodland Lodge is a fabulous place to stay near the Peak District. It's extremely comfortable and well appointed but set within a rustic charm. We enjoyed our stay immensely and our only regret is that we only booked one week and not two.
Woodlands lodge has absolutely everything you'll need for a relaxing holiday. Comfortable , clean and cosy. We genuinely didn't want to leave . The bed is like sleeping on a cloud the best nights sleep we've had in years . The views from the hot tub are amazing and the enclosed garden was perfect for the pooches . If we could give more stars we would . Jo and Ian have made a beautiful holiday home. We will definitely be back . A special thank you to jo for being so thoughtful and offering her flu remedies . If youre undecided about booking woodlands lodge don't be, you won't regret it .
Just returned from a fabulous 2 weeks at Ian and Jos woodland lodge. It had everything we needed and more. Hot tub was amazing watching the sunset and relaxing after our walks ,real fire with enough wood for a few nights cozying up,massive comfortable bed.The dog pub which was a mile away served lovely meals,the bar staff and locals were very friendly,you can walk along the track to the Blue Bell pub which was more up market but not as friendly.Our dog Toby loved the enclosed garden to wonder around in,We loved this place and didnt want to leave .
Leslie
A beautiful sypathetic barn conversion amongst other like buildings originally built in the 1600,s. Inside our lodge was everything you could wish for to compliment our stay. Easily the best accomodation we have had for years.
Absolutely fabulous, Woodland lodge is the best lodge weve stayed in. Clean, spacious, very comfy bed. Lovely enclosed garden for our dog, which he really enjoyed. Great walks on the doorstep, not far from the Peak District, Chatsworth, Bakewell, Matlock etc. Fantastic hot tub too. Would definitely recommend. Will be returning at some point.
Had a lovely relaxing stay, we didn't want for anything. The walled garden was the perfect size for our dog and meant we could let her out without worrying she may escape. The covered hot tub was brilliant with the good old English weather, it meant we could enjoy the hot tub whilst it chucked it down.
Diahann
An amazing place to stay with everything you need. Very comfortable bed, a real home form home, could definitley move in permanently! Looking forward to returning soon!
We really enjoyed our stay, so much so, we have already booked to stay in the cottage in the back yard!
Morgan

Bed was really comfy,the place is decorated beautifully. Area is really peaceful. Owners live on site but not intrusive. We will definitely be going back!
Antony
We had a lovely week at this beautiful, peaceful cottage. The weather was exceptionally warm but the cottage was lovely and cool. It was so good to have the garden for our two dogs to explore knowing that it was secure. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage.
Lovely cottage, very clean, lovely location and superb for my 2 x dogs
The owners were warm and welcoming whilst still respecting our privacy. The property is charming clean and comfortable, containing everything we needed for our stay. What a beautiful place! We will certainly make the time to go again as soon as we can.
A really lovely cottage set in a beautiful location. Loved the views from the garden, and the hot tub. Very dog friendly, lovely owners. Would highly recommend. Thank you for your kind hospitality.
We were really happy with the area and facilities available upon our arrival. The cottage has all that was needed for a comfortable stay. The owner couldn't have done more to make it a homely cottage. Staying over Christmas the cottage was decorated very traditionally which was lovely. Would definitely recommend and may hopefully return.
Edward
I would highly recommend woodland lodge. The building is stunning and the surroundings are beautiful. The inclosed garden is great if you have dogs, not to mention the hot tub and the wood burner. Ive just come back from a four night stay and would 100 go back. I would like to also mention the owners Ian and Joanne are really friendly and helpful
What a beautiful place to stay. Very cosy, comfortable, and set in the most beautiful grounds. We were there for 2 weeks and could have stayed longer. We were made very welcome by Joanne and Ian great hosts. Walks from your doorstep were a bonus and the hot tub was a delight private & perfect for after walk relaxing. So many lovely places to visit within 2030 mins car drive. Highly recommend a visit. Thank you for the perfect place to relax and recharge the batteries.
Truly the best week away ever. If youre thinking of booking this place, DO IT! Jo, Ian and their daughter were lovely anything we needed was provided. The cottage was extremely cosy and clean upon arrival. There were clear instructions for everything. I dont even know what to say as everything was 1010 the hot tub was amazing, the bed was comfy, our dog Kobe had the best week ever running around the enclosed garden. Kobe is a flight risk hes only 1 so his recall isnt the best and I felt safe with him off lead in the garden. The facilities were excellent the kitchen was great to cook in with all utensils and kit provided. The bathroom was lovely. We got to do our washing and drying while away which is a BIG help for returning home and not having to do it here!! The area is also fantastic as well so lush and green, nice and remote, plenty of places to eat out, good walks, nature. We will be coming back next year. The owners are truly running a fabulous place, just amazing. Thank you again Amy, Ryan and Kobe Liverpool
Had an amazing 4 day break at Woodland Lodge. Very homely accommodation with plenty of space but also a cosy feeling with the open fire. Did not explore the area much as just wanted the time to relax, read and enjoy the hot tub. Although had a lovely Sunday lunch at The Bluebell Inn
Meredith
Woodland Lodge is the perfect wholesome and peaceful staycation! We had the best 3 nights with our dog. Its a great location for exploring the Peak District, brilliant walks, charming small market towns & delicious food surrounds this cottage! Woodland Lodge felt a home from home & we didnt want to leave, we will absoutely be booking back in! The owners were absoutely lovely, so accommodating & even introduced me to Ollie and their 3 ponies that I had been dying to stroke!! A brilliant stay, wouldnt want to stay anywhere else when visiting the peaks!
Debbie

Graham
What a fantastic stay we had in the lovely Woodland Lodge, super place lovely hosts and lovely weather and superbly kitted out property .
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage for a week. What a wonderful, peaceful place and everyone is so friendly. We took a walk to the local village which was lovely and it was a great base for days out. We took our small dog who enjoyed the enclosed garden area and the walks of course! The cottage was very cosy with plenty of room, kitchen and bedroom was spacious and the lounge area was very comfortable. You will not be disappointed, great hosts, top property and lovely area.

We had the privilege to spend a week at the cottage. The cottage and hot tub we're amazing and the scenery beautiful. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating, and nothing was too much trouble ensuring our stay was comfortable. Everything in the cottage was perfect and tailored for our needs, lovely. Would definitely recommend to friends and family and also to revisit in the future Sharone and keith

Sharon
We had a fabulous week at Shaw Wood Farm. The lodge Woodland was beautiful, clean and so peaceful. Ian and Jo made us feel so welcome and the little thoughtful touches in the lodge were lovely. Everything we needed was there. We look forward to visiting again next year.
Stuart
A FANTASTIC break. The cottage was perfect with everything you needed to both unwind and explore the beauty of Derbyshire, knowing that you had a warm and cosy base to return too. Lovely walks right on the doorstep with Bluebell woods just seconds away. The hosts were brilliant, so friendly and helpful and if you get the chance, make sure you say hello to ROLO, there lovely fourlegged friend. Now we have our own dog we only holiday in the UK and look for nice 'dog friendly' places to stay. This was the BEST YET! Thank you so much.
Stewart
Our second stay at Woodlands Lodge, I am sure it wont be the last. Friendly hosts, great accommodation, spotlessly clean great enclosed garden so Phoebe our hound could also enjoy the holiday. Restful and quiet everything we wanted, oh and the hot tub superb.
Lovely cottage & everything as described. Hosts were welcoming and then left us to it which was great. Recommend that guests take the time to read the information book. White Hart at Duffield very welcoming.
Stephen
A quality cottage, extremely well renovated by the current owners in a beautiful location. Anyone looking for a stay in this area would struggle to find better accommodation in this price range. Hosts were very friendly & accessible if needed, couldn't recommend more.
Norman
Enjoyed a fantastic week at Woodland Lodge with stunning views from the hot tub and cozy evenings Infront of a roaring log fire. Just perfect 1010.
Michelle
What beautiful place in a lovely area of the country. Our accommodation was Woodland Lodge and was perfect. It had all we need and more for our stay over the New Year period. Ian & Joanne the owners are so lovely & friendly we loved the log fire, hot tub & our fur balls Marley & Storm loved the large enclosed garden to play and have fun. Would love to return again and this place is definitely on our favourites list. Thank you Ian & Joanne for an amazing break.
Catherine
The property is beautiful we stayed for Xmas and it was beautifully decorated. Very relaxing quiet stay the dog loved it. Fab time would highly recommend
ie-ann
Wonderful stay in this huge cottage. So beautiful. Tastefully decorated for Christmas. Very secure setting because of the double sets of gates. Basket of logs and firelighterskindling were provided which was a nice touch. Cottage was spotless clean. Bed was very comfy but it is set up as a double so give them notice if you want singles. Hot tub is delightful but take a bluetooth speaker if you want to play music. Garden is secure for dogs. So peaceful except for the odd speeding train which you only hear from the garden. Only negative was no shampooshower gel. I didn't think to take my own.
Stuart
This is the third time we have stayed at Woodland Lodge and each time it has been fantastic. A beautiful setting, clean, comfortable home from home. Loads to do in the surrounding areas. Would highly recommend this as a place to stay, I'm sure we will be booking again in the future.
Idyllic property, the hottub was wonderful and the area so peaceful. The cottage was very comfortable with a good range of kitchen equipment. Ian and Joanne were friendly and helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
