Dog Friendly Lodges & Log Cabins In Evesham

What our customers say about their holidays

  We stayed here last October and everything was absolutely perfect.

  The owners were very helpful and friendly and were around if we needed them (we didn't) but gave us our privacy. We had the most wonderful, relaxing time away. The lodge itself was very clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and was very well equipped, with a lot more included than any other lodge we have stayed in before, with lots of extras which the owners kindly thought of (delicious and generous welcome pack, dishwasher tablets, washing machine tablets etc). The starter pack for the log burner was enough to last us all week! (though the Lodge was plenty warm without it) The indoor hot tub was very clean (which the owners tested by a seperate door early in morning, so they do not intrude) and worked perfectly and the fluffy towels, robes and slippers provided were a very welcome touch. The location of the lodge was perfect for us, with lovely views from inside and outside and nice walks on doorstep. It felt remote (which is what we were looking for) as was down a country lane but wasn't really as is still close (10 min drive) to the two towns with bars, resutrants and all the amenities you could need. We were lazy a few times and even got takeaway delivered to the lodge! The only slight downside was lots of flys around due to the fact it is on a cow farm but the owners did all they can by providing fly spray etc and in reality, the owners can't control flys! It didn't impact the holiday much. We are planning on hopefully coming back this year and have already recommended it to lots of people we know. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday and all the little touches that made our stay perfect.

  It was just what I needed.

  A perfect break from everything without losing the mod cons. There was no tv and this was just perfect. We had a pc to watch movies in the evening. It was so lovely to wake up to the lake and geese, ducks and swans in the morning. After a few days the ducks got so used to us they would come onto our decking, have a look around then go back in the pond. Be careful not to leave the yurt door open when out of site as the ducks will go inside! It was so peaceful and nice to wake up in the morning and not see houses, people or cars. There was a limited bus service into Tewkesbury and Evesham. Both lovely towns. Like going back in time when you come from a city - in a nice way. People are so friendly. The owners were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. The bed was clean and comfortable. Having a dishwasher was a real luxury. I loved sitting on the decking in the morning and also going in the hot tub in the evening. It was a real escape. Even though the owners house and other yurts were close by the yurt was so secluded it felt like being alone in the countryside. For those on public transport the bus can be flagged down by the side of the road. They do stop running at 5.45 from Tewkesbury. We didn't try to get a taxi back so not sure how much that would cost. The hob worked well. There was a fire in the outdoor seating area and it can be made more sheltered on a rainy day by closing the sliding door. Excellent place to stay. Have looked at other yurt holidays but they don't have the extra home comforts like this one does.

  I have tried several times to contact Sykes by phone (no one answers!

  ) and via email to which I have had no acknowledgement. I find it extremely infuriating when a person books a holiday and they have a valid complaint or constructive feedback and wish to communicate with Sykes and are constantly ignored. I have booked many, many cottages through various agents and can honestly say Sykes customer service is appalling. Please stop using COVID-19 as an excuse for not providing professional customer service. This was the first time I’ve booked through Sykes and it will be the last time. When you wanted a booking you were quick to act and response and service was fantastic up until the holiday ended. That’s where customer service took a back seat and you haven’t had the decency to return my phone calls or reply to even one of my emails. The standards were poor and I wanted to advise you with constructive feedback. I don’t expect anyone will reply, even now - it’s just one that is swept under the carpet. You’ve had your money and just don’t care. Please take me off your mailing list. If you cannot be bothered to reply to your customers, I certainly won’t be using you again. Great customer service is what makes a company stand out so why would I recommend Sykes when you can’t be bothered with your clients. Thank you. F Weekley

  The Lodge is a great place and in a stunning location.

  Both Sue and Rodger are the perfect hosts as they are around if ever you needed them.The standard of equipment and crockery is the very best with more than enough plates and dishes ( all of which are matching ) to cater for 4 people. The Lodge has a feeling of comfort due to its comfortable furniture and layout of the kitchen where everything is in the right place so you don`t have to spend time looking for things. The interior is nice and bright due to it having been painted rather than plain wood. The bathroom is nice and large and there is always plenty of very hot water.The location is very near the top of Smokey Lane a track which has a few bumps and holes but its not an issue, and we both agree that the location is fantastic, with views over to Bredon hill and across open fields where you can see a range of birds and perhaps even deer if you are lucky.There are also plenty of walks from your front door along footpaths and tracks. We would love to go back when summer is in full swing just so that we could sit outside and watch the grass grow. A Great holiday thanks Sue and Rodger. I would even go back just for the Chocolate Brownies.

  The yurt was as described.

  We would have liked to have used the boat which was in the description, but it was dirty and full of water, so were unable to. The bed was super comfy. It got very hot in the yurt and the fan provided didn't make a difference. Spiders and beetles were a daily occurance, but you are staying in a woodland property, so to be expected. A full screen on the door would have been great, and stopped the mosquitos. The hot tub was amazing. The light didn't work for evening dips which was a shame. We googled how to use the hob. The deck area isn't suitable for fishing, as too high to lift fish over safely. The covered area is a great addition in hot or rainy weather. A flushing toilet was an unexpected bonus. Private, clean, functional. Evesham and Tewkesbury close by. The Beckford Inn was lovely and welcoming. The owner was lovely and the maintenance guy dave, very friendly and helpful in sorting the hot tub, mid stay. We didn't want to come home! We would love to return to experience one of the other yurts.
