  We are a group of 4 adults and 2 children.

  We stayed for 3 nights at leafy hollow lodge and we were all blown away by how lovely it was. We were welcomed by a glowing light that had been left on for us, a beautiful decorative leaf wreath on the front door and as we opened the door a subtle woody cinnamon scent. The lodge is spacious and beautifully decorated with a tasteful woodland Norwegian style, from woodland green soft fleece sofa blankets to woodland creature ornaments and mini felt gonks displayed with fairy lights which my daughter loved. Waiting for us was a welcome basket of Prosecco a Victorian sponge and some luxury crisps with a welcome card, a very nice touch. The two shower rooms / toilet areas were spotlessly clean and fresh. I slept in the main double room and myself and my husband agreed the bed was like sleeping in a cloud, very comfortable. Due to the mixed weather on our visit we all appreciated the log burning fire to create a cosy warm atmosphere and the bigger than usual selection of dvds and jigsaws/ games for kids & adults. Contact with the owners Sarah & Jason was reassuringly easy, they were very quick to respond and very helpful with anything we needed or any questions. As the lodge is located in a wood the WiFi is quite weak so plan ahead for day trips / places to eat etc before you go if you like to internet search. There is a detailed welcome pack & selection of leaflets in the lodge for local things to do places to visit & eat out etc. We found leafy hollow lodge the ideal hideaway from everyday life & stress and we actually enjoyed disconnecting from phones and spending more time together socialising in a very Hygge environment. We visited The Cheese Shop in Louth, worth a visit, the Brown Cow pub in Louth for a Sunday roast which was delicious and we took the children to the Wildlife centre / zoo which we all enjoyed. Many thanks Sarah & Jason for a perfect luxury lodge in the woods holiday.

  Overall the cabin was nice, very clean on the inside and comfortable.

  It was a great base to visit local attractions. A few things to note though: The location unfortunately is a building site, there is a lot of dust kicked up over all of the outside space. This is probably the reason why none of the advertised wildlife was apparent. Advertises a jacuzzi bath, which it does have, but the immersion tank isn't large enough to fill it so after the tank depleats you have room temperature water. The fridge didn't shut properly, we didn't realise until a couple of days in that everything at the front of the fridge was warm and spoiled. We had to throw away a fair amount of food. We called the number for the maintenance team but due to signal couldn't get through. Eventually texts got through and they came to look as well as replace some lightbulbs that were missing, although they didn't change all of them and one was not able to be fixed as the fitting was broken. They adjusted the door on the built in fridge but it was still not ideal. They said they would be back and would text us before coming but we got no further contaxt. Luckily we used our camping fridge for the remainder of our trip and repurchased the spoiler items at our own cost. The WiFi isn't suitable for much more than sending text based messages. It is a remote location but should be mentioned when it states WiFi that it's not suitable for watching videos or even sending pictures. Being rural there are suspect smells at times, we counted at least 8 air fresheners plugged in in the cabin and there were countless more in draws etc.

  The smell was so strong when entered the lovely cottage and took very long to go or get used to it.

  .. We filled the Jacuzzi thinking to enjoy it but insects started to creep out of the pipes on sides !! spiders and their webs in cupboard , the oven didn't work for a cozy night meal and when we called for help to the person who we have a number and asked him about the oven in very gentle way , I greeted him by saying Good evening , he stayed silent, I replied can you hear me, he said yes I can hear you !!! , he said he is responsible for just about the booking he tried to help although was defending the owner not sure why ? or how ? as he said same happened last week with other customers , after trying several times it worked so we thought to let him know and once he picked up the phone he started shouting loudly: "I'm calling her Now , I'm calling her Noww" ... before even listened to what I was going to tell him, my phone was on loud speaker , and all the family heard him how loud he was unnecessarily, they were all shocked of this attitude ...so really we need to put a complain about all that . Also there was a paper with numbers to contact in the cottage if we need anything , and as some of the cupboards were looked we wanted to inform them , so I called and a lady answered , when I greeted her and told her what the issue is ,, she said send me message I can't hear you without saying sorry or Bye ... So that was bad communication skills in tourist area .

  We were all absolutely thrilled with the lodge as soon as we saw it.

  It is beautifully furnished throughout, with a very comfortable, large sitting room/dining area. The kitchen is very well fitted out with fridge, freezer, dish-washer, microwave oven, double oven and the washing machine in the hall cupboard. All the utensils and kitchen ware were first class too. The four bedrooms were very comfortable and it was very useful having three bathrooms. The lodge is in a great spot within the park, with three other privately owned lodges, close to the hotel and the park facilities. The pool was very popular and used every day, even on the days we went to Mablethorpe beach.. We hired bikes and everyone loved the forest laser game. There are other facilities on site which we didn`t get chance to try. There were some good walks in the forest and we walked to the next pretty village across the golf course for lunch one day We also ate at the hotel one evening. The area is known as an AONB and we all thought it deserved that. We shopped in the pretty nearby town of Louth and spent a few days at Mablethorpe with it`s beautiful beach although we didn`t like the town. We had a super holiday in the lodge and plan to return one day. The owners contacted me before our holiday and when we arrived, to make sure we were happy with everything. They very kindly left us a Louth Plum cake and a much appreciated bottle of fizz in the fridge..

  We had a very pleasant stay and the accommodation was very comfortable.

  However, there were some cleaning issues on arrival. The bathroom was a little dusty, and we had to wipe down a shelf and there was also a thick layer of dust behind the loo roll holder. We were also surprised not to find an information folder that you usually get at properties listing things you may need to know, and telling you a little about the area. It took us a few minutes to locate the kitchen light switch (by the balcony door) and the main switch for the hob (back of the cupboard below and to the left of the fridge). We didn’t use the Jacuzzi but did receive feedback prior to arrival that this amenity is being removed from the list as there isn’t sufficient hot water to fill it. The wi-fi is only adequate for basic stuff, emails and google searches. Anyone wanting to work online or watch movies for example would be disappointed, and I think this should be mentioned. As a suggestion a DVD player would make a great addition to the amenities. Although there is construction work nearby with a little noise, it did not spoil our holiday. We were out most of the day, but again anyone wanting a quiet retreat may be disappointed. The best part for us was hearing the owls hooting at night and we were lucky enough to have a Tawny Owl sit in a tree right outside the balcony.
