Beautiful well equipped lodge very peaceful. So nice that there only the two lodges on site because despite being close together you still have the feeling of some privacy. Be a real shame if the owner cramps in another lodge as it would spoil the views and you would quite literally be over looking one another. As it is a t the moment it's a beautiful place that I can not fault. Please Lee don't spoil it by cramping in another lodge

This was a late booking but found it ideal for it's closeness to Donington Park. The Lodge was very comfortable and close to Swadlincote for our self catering needs. Although it was close to the road, it didn't bother us but helped to explore the local area. We even saw a hare in the adjoining field.
