Waterside View
The Lodge itself was excellent and in a peaceful location just one or two issues with crumbs under the microwave and crumbs under the dining table my daughter suffers with ocd so normally it wouldn't be a problem, otherwise everything was lovely

Lovely River Rretreat
The lodge was perfectly situated on the banks of the river so we could relax while watching the rowing boats passing. The nearby on site bar with restaurants is nice plus you can catch a boat from there that takes you into stratford. For £3 each the boat ride alone is worth the money.

Surprise birthday stay (3 nights)
Absolutely beautiful lodge overlooking the river, park/ location also very well kept. All positive feedback would definitely recommend. Fantastic communication with home owner on booking. The lodge is extremely well stocked with all amenities and extras which were all included in the price. The home was clean and really well presented, the bed was so comfortable. It was lovely to sit on the decking with the resident swans and cygnets enjoying the view. Fantastic location close to Stratford town, we really enjoyed using the river taxi from the park (pick up/ drop off just near to site clubhouse). Definitely 10+/10 well worth a stay!

Schoolfriend's reunion
Four ladies of a certain age spent 3 nights in River Retreat Lodge and had a great time. Well equipped, great position looking out on the river. Caught the river taxi right into the centre of town, a picturesque ride, the drivers were great, full of local information and so helpful. The lodge was a perfect base to come back to, spacious and clean. Would recommend.

A quiet retreat
Enjoyed our stay. Lodge was as expected. Well equipped, clean, comfortable and homely. Lovely views of the river etc. The only recommendation we would make is to give the exterior a bit of TLC - lots of cobwebs. Paul & Sonia

Lodge Retreat
Very nice property in front of river Avon very clean well kept all that you need. Twin bed room smaller than expected not much room to store suitcases and living area also, there should of been 5 in are party but two members were unable to come so with three plenty of room for us. Stella was a very good host provided plenty of info and quick to respond to messages would recommend this lodge.

Relaxing and amazing
A last minute opportunity to get away for a couple of days. I know the area to be pleasant and relaxing so was delighted that the cabin lived up to expectations, being well appointed and comfortable. Great location overlooking the river. Complaints - pleased to say none actually relate to the accommodation! unfortunately the river boat taxi listed in the literature was not running. Both my partner and I enjoy walking, so we simply substituted a river boat ride for a river side walk! However, this will need updating at some point Site was immaculate, and we found a fantastic little pub in Stratford upon Avon to visit (The one oak - very much worth a visit!) I would return in a heartbeat! Thank you
