Acorn Lodge Reviews

Lorraine

We thoroughly enjoyed staying a Acorn Lodge. A very comfortable cottage which was perfect for our family of four. Well designed lounge, dining and kitchen area and very comfortable beds. We loved all the acorn theming and the real fire. Well equipped kitchen and enjoyed outside dining on the patio. Peace and tranquillity the only noise is birdsong, cows mooing and sheep bleating. Lovely views over the countryside. Amazing hot tub which we thoroughly enjoyed. We really had a great week at Acorn Lodge, and hope to return. Thank you.

Absolutely loved everything about the property and the attention to detail from the owners. Loved it so much so that weve just booked to stay again! Tip Id take a dressing gown and sone flip flops with you, for the hot tub.

I booked this cottage as a short break for my wife, her friend and my two daughters. My wife has written this review. The cottage itself was beautiful, very comfortable and with everything we needed. How lovely it was to wake in the mornings to hear nothing but the birds , Ive never been somewhere so quiet. The hot tub was an added bonus and we made the most of it enjoying the amazing views around. Thank you so much to Jeff who turned up just as wed got ourselves a bit lost trying to find the cottage and getting us back on track. . Any questions we had from helping us with the hot tub to where the nearest pub to eat was he was quick to respond.

An absolutely stunning cottage and location. Really clean and thoughtfully managed. The location was so peaceful and beautiful, we had a really restful and relaxing break. Communication from the owner was excellent, as was the welcome package. Would wholeheartedly recommend and would absolutely return for another holiday here!

Pauline

Excellent facility Highly recommend if you want to escape the hum drum of life. Beautiful property. Well maintained easy access to surroundings points of interests. Jeff and Anna hosts made our New Year Eve Memorable and will definitely return when available. Thank you

Daniel

We had a fantastic stay. Great communication from the host. Would stay again. Thank you.

Matthew

We had a wonderful stay at Acorn Lodge, the accommodation was very comfortable and provided everything we needed. A lovely quiet spot but not too far from a town or city. Hot tub was great as well, would recommend. The owner was spot on as well, thank you.

Lovely rural location. Spacious accommodation.. loved your attention to detail, right down to the firelighters. Enjoyed the Acorn theme too, very thoughtful.

Michael

This accommodation was lovely, peaceful and comfortable. The weather wasn't too good whilst we were there, so we enjoyed a few evenings in either watching TV or playing games. However on a sunny day, the garden would be a lovely sun trap. The view was peaceful. We enjoyed sharing the garden with pheasants, partridge, robins and blackbirds... and of course Jenkins.

Amanda

Cottages was beautiful, the only thing to consider is that the pillows are quite flat. We had a fab weekend

Our third stay here it is a lovely property, comfortable and spacious, with excellent hot tub and is set in a beautiful tranquil location.

Accomodation was of the highest standard and the location was wonderful, so quiet and peaceful. The hot tub was a hit with everyone and the owner was so kind, friendly and helpful. There was no cafetierre but that was no problem, everything else was there that was needed. Highly recommend.

Elaine

Lovely cottage, in an idyllic situation. It is comfortable, spacious and wellequipped. The owner was friendly and helpful. Plenty of places to visit within easy travelling distance.

Lovely homely feeling Jeff the host was most welcoming we knew that if needed he was there but left us to enjoy our holiday. All ok tight squeeze for dishing up four meals but we managed it!! All facilities good and Jeff came an cleaned the tub in between a couple of uses!! As said before Jenkins the cat was very friendly and came to talk to us each day. A very relaxing week shame the weather wasn't glorious for the week!!

Kathryn

Great property! Very peaceful and quiet exactly what we were hoping for. All the facilities are as described, and it is really clean and well appointed. Great views of the surrounding farmland. Good position for touring the Peaks and the Potteries, and surrounding places of interest. Five stars!

Where to start, what an absolutely beautiful ans secluded place. Big parking area, private fenced off garden and patio, luxury wood fired hot tub which was big! With jets and LED's to enjoy an evening dip. Garden furniture to sit out and enjoy the view and sun. Big spacious livingdiningkitchen with a big fridge freezer, cooker, microwave, toaster, kettle, dishwasher and other utensils etc in the cupboards. Plates, bowls, cups, cutlery and place mats all provided in the unit by the dining table. Games under the tv cabinet, as well as badminton set under the stairs qhere the recycling bins and ironironing board are. The sofas were cosy and the log fire was gorgeous, although the weather was so nice during our visit it was too hot to use, but Jeff called over and asked of we wanted any fans, which we accepted. The bedrooms were spacious, and nice comfy double beds, the downstairs bedroom can be changed to 2 singles if needed, which Jeff asked before our visit. The bathrooms were really nice and underfloor heating! There was a welcome pack and booklet to ahow all local places including pubs, towns, walks etc. Which was so nice to have. And not forgetting jenkins, the cute little ginger cat who comes to visit often. All together it was a pleasure to visit and we will definitely be back. Thank you, jodie, kyle, Brandon and Patrice xx

Beautiful Lodge, everything was perfect for a home from home stay, really warm and cosy, tranquil and relaxing location to enjoy the views and wonderful hot tub. Thank you to Jeff for hosting, really good communication about my stay and for the lovely welcome pack.

Bethan

We had the most wonderful time staying at Acorn Lodge. Facilities were pristine, hot tub was incredible and the hosts were so thoughtful and kind. There we so many wonderful little touches that made our stay so easy and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend and cant wait to book again for a longer stay! Thank you Jeff and Anna!

Matthew

A fantastic secluded property, that was warm, and beautifully finished. We will be staying here again in the future.

I Stayed at the Acorn lodge with my partner for our birthdays. The property is beautiful, very peaceful and quiet had a wonderful stay. The host Jeff was extremely accommodating and responded instantly, second to none! Thank you. Would really recommend the property.

We had a really lovely stay at Acorn Lodge, and would highly recommend it. The Lodge was beautifully furnished and included everything you could need for a weekend away. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, along with relaxing in front of the wood burner. If you're after a peaceful weekend away, this is the perfect place! Jenkins the cat was a great addition, always happy to receive a fuss and the occasional little treat, our children were quite sad to say good bye at the end of our stay! The only thing that could do with some attention is the access road, a few of the big holes could do with being filled in, but that's being picky.

Recently stayed at Acorn lodge, beautiful lodge with great views. Very well stocked and had everything we needed for the break. Owners were lovely . Kids enjoyed Jenkins the cat visiting. A home from home .

Caroline

Acorn Lodge was lovely and perfect for our weekend away. We arrived on the Friday when there had been rain and flooding, however the owner was helpful and responsive when asking for advice about how to get there. The hot tub did take a while to warm up, but once it was, it lovely. The owner was great, easily contactable and nearby to help if needed. Would stay again.

We enjoyed our holiday and the personal service was excellent

Steven

Lovely and clean quiet cottage , very comfortable, helpful owner , would happily return again.

We had an absolutely amazing bank holiday weekend! The location of Acorn Lodge in close proximity to the owner made sure any silly requests we had and there were a couple, nothing to do with the lodge itself though! were dealt with quickly. The owners are friendly and attentive and we had a good amount of communication with them and they are open to any feedback or recommendations, even whilst you are there. Acorn lodge itself made for the perfect holiday stay, we were welcomed by the very friendly Jenkins cat on arrival, the hot tub was great and once hot it really doesnt take that long to reheat at all in fact we overheated on a couple of occasions and had to call in for help

We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend.

The lodge is absolutely perfect and exactly what wed hoped for. It is set in beautiful countryside with a field of cows just over the fence which we loved to watch as we relaxed in the hot tub as the sun set. The hot tub is incredibly easy to use and is far superior to any other weve used before. The lodge is stunning. It feels really cosy and traditional but has all the modern appliances you need. Excellent showers and really comfortable beds. Its incredibly private and peaceful but Jeff and Anna were always on hand if we needed anything and the welcome box of goodies was much appreciated. Weve stayed in many Sykes cottages over the years and this was our favourite. P.S We spotted a negative review on this website. The review we read is completely at odds with our experience. We recommend you ignore it.

Could not use the hot tub as it was NOT tested daily and chemicals added. . Dining chairs were very rickety and on the point of breaking. Beds were atrocious. Bedding cheap nylon. Only 1 pillow each supplied. The lodge reeked of cigarette smoke when we arrived. The cupboard doors and drawers on the dresser were very poor quality and didnt close or open easily. We left them open because they were in such a poor condition. This place was a disgrace.

Beautiful lodge, welcome pack, toiletries etc amazing even provided kitchen washing up things perfect. Host communication excellent. Very private relaxing place to unwind.

Kiranjot

We have just got back from an amazing stay at Acorn Lodge. The lodge was so cozy and comfortable, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. I couldn't get enough of the beautiful scenery! My favorite part of the stay was relaxing in the hot tub and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. It was the perfect place to unwind and escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a quiet, scenic getaway!

Samantha

A beautiful cottage, in a wonderfully peaceful location, yet only 20 minutes or so from Stone. We had the most relaxing weekend ever, and will definitely stay again. We loved the hot tub and Jenkins, the resident cat who kept us company for most of the weekend. My only suggestion and sorry if these are provided already and I missed them would be to have shatterproof cups and glasses to take outside whilst enjoying the hot tub.

Alison

We had a wonderful stay at Acorn lodge. Really clean, spacious, beautiful, peaceful location. The owners obviously put a lot of thought into the property providing quality furniture. The extra little touches, including infamous Jenkins, who welcomes you on arrival and checks on you throughout the day. This lovely feline friend was never intrusive, but a gentle companion.. We will definitely return.

Very clean, comfortable accommodation. Nice clean towels and bedding with no bobbling on the bedding. Lovely location and so many places to visit. National Trust, Cannock Chase, canal, walking, gardens. Must admit have never been into history very much but the people we came across were extremely knowledgeable on the history of the places we visited. Dog free property which is a plus for me as I am allergic to animal hair.

We had a fabulous stay. A beautifully appointed cottage in a very peaceful location we hope to return in the future.

The property was fantastic, decorated well with a contemporary feel and all little touches throughout which gave it a luxury feel. Netflix and good WiFi was a very welcome surprise for our teenagers! Information on the surrounding area was well thought out and I liked the touch of reading previous guest stays recommendations. Would definitely stay again

We had a lovely 3 night stay at this amazing property. If you want peace and quiet with lovely views this is the place to be. It has a well stocked kitchen although I feel it could do with a reshuffle as all the plates and cutlery are at the other end of the kitchen, no big deal but irritating. Bedrooms are lovely and a nice touch with the free Netflix. We took a walk to the Green man with was a really friendly little traditional pub. Hot tub was a nice addition we couldnt get this hot on the first night but then contacted Jeff who advised so it was fine for the rest of the stay, Im not sure if its possible but it would really help if it could be fired up before arrival as we definitely found it took around 4 hours to warm up. Overall a lovely stay in tranquil surroundings. Oh and not forgetting Jenkins who felt like our own pet cat

Shellja

This cottage was an amazing getaway and worth every penny. The hot tub was easy to use. Very spacious place and comfortable. Had everything we needed and the TVs in each Bedroom were a great touch! Thank you.

Ayesha

I had an amazing stay at the Acorn Lodge. For my brother and partners birthday. It was perfect and they all loved it! It was a cosy and quiet location. The hosts had a folder with information for walks and instructions for the lodge. Hosts were very easy to contact if there was anything we needed help with.Dishwasher easy to use when cleaning up and lots of plates, bowls, cups and utensils available. The chairs at the table could do with some seat cushions just a personal preference but not required but other wise everything was perfect. The hot tube was great especially in the cold evenings it was still nice and hot! My brother even went in the hot tub when it was raining! That's how much he loved it. The lay out is amazing and the upstairs bedroom is beautiful.There is a cute cat that is usually around in the day and will come up to the window, which made everyone smile. I would definitely come again!

Lauren

We stayed at Acorn Lodge for 3 nights for a romantic and ultimate relaxation. .we definitely got this here! The lodge was the cleanest place I have ever stayed in and the welcome treats were a lovely added gift from the owner on arrival! The lodge had everything we needed, alongside beautiful views. It is definitely in an quiet location, about a 30 minute walk brought us to the Green Man which was a lovely traditional country pub, just definitely walk back while it is still light as this is the closest place! The closest supermarket was about a 20 minute drive, which was clearly noted in the information. Jenkins the cat was the sweetest little neighbour, coming to visit us none stop! I think the only addition we would have liked would be some curtains at the patio doors as late at night that privacy would be nice! Apart from this our stay was fantastic. Would also recommend Shugborough hall for a day out, and the Dog and Doublet for food! Thanks to Jeff for a lovely time.
