Hen House View Reviews

Veronica
Superb place 1010 had lovely weekend . Spotlessly clean everything you need for a relaxed break .can't fault anything .
The time here was excellent. The weatehr was good and we visited severl National Trust properties as well as two visits to Lichfield Cathedral. The hot tub was made use of every night, and the underfloor heating was most welcome.
I really enjoyed the Hen house View beautiful, bed was so comfortable slept so well, hot tube was a real treat used it every day, I will be booking again to stay there next year. Owners have made it lovely
My partner and I had an absolutely wonderful stay, our host were lovely and the facilities were brilliant.
An excellent week away in a well maintained and presented property. The hot tub was a brilliant way to relax and the king sized bed was probably 1 of the most comfortable beds I have slept in when away from home. Overall it was what we both needed and would recommend the property to anyone and would definitely stay there again. 10 out of 10

You very unlucky it was so hot weather when we stayed. I know it was not with an AC when I booked it but you should have had some fans in the apartment in case of need. It was impossible to sleep well. Otherwise I loved it!!
Philip

The place was very peaceful and ideal if you want to escape.The hot tub was great.On arrival we were gifted a bottle of Prosecco which was a good start to our holiday.We had an excellent meal at the Dun Cow ten minutes walk away,Lots of places to visit by car.

Lovely place, very nice and relaxing, hot tub perfect, bed perfect, and some good information from Martin on were to go and what to do, would highly recommend to anyone who wants a relaxing break, also nice walks for the dog, will definitely be booking again if we ever kid free again haha
Absolutely fantastic stay in 5 star accomodation, every aspect was perfect, from the hot tub to the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in. Little touches like the drink and crisps waiting for us on arrival were very gratefully received. Couldn't recommend any higher, in fact we've already recommended to friends and family while we were away
Fantastic little romantic cottage in a beautiful secluded location within easy reach of Rugeley town centre and Cannock Chase. Beautifully furnished and meticulously clean with everything you need to hand. Super king bed was extremely comfortable. Garden has been fully enclosed since pictures were taken but very nicely done. Fabulous hot tub perfect for relaxing after a long day walking. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Always enjoy the holiday at hen house,my wife and I always love the peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of city streets. Can't wait for the return to country life. Didn't see Haley this time she was away on holiday,But Her husband Martin was there but they never bother you and are always there for assistance. Can't wait to get back into the hot tub again. Francis.
Danielle
A beautiful and tranquil cottage set in amazing surroundings. Had a lovely weekend get away where we could just relax from the rat race. The cottage is stunning and caters for every need. The hot tub was so relaxing and the bed was so comfortable. We'd love to stay again. Thank you
Lovely place. Muddy on road as you leave so bring boots but accommodation was perfect
A lovely peaceful retreat, everything provided for a relaxing stay. Kitchen facilities excellent, bedroom comfortable, spacious bathroom and the bonus of a hot tub!
What to say about Hen House? We had the most wonderful stay and my partner had the best birthday! From the hot tub, the big bath and bed, to the underfloor heating which was unexpected as not advertised, Hen House has set a very high standard and bar for future stay aways.
Wonderful accommodation, just right for 2 people. Very warm and cosy, the bed was very comfortable indeed. Plenty of cleaning products and little essentials like tin foil and dishwasher tabs. The hot tub was welcoming after those long country walks.
We had a week. And what a gorgeous place there is nothing that they had missed it was so well thought out. The hot tub the log fire the bed was so comfortable and the bathroom was huge. It was so quiet and relaxing outside. We would definitely recommend it. Our dog had a lovely holiday as well his first.
Francis
Exceptional rural retreat, cozy, relaxing, country walks, pub close by though we didnt partake as we were totally self sufficient, hot tub bathing into the late night soothing tired muscles and gazing up into the endless night skybliss!
Really enjoyed stay. Kitchen tap needs securing properly. Normal size egg slice in kitchen would be good, not metal large bbq one. We had a lovely relaxing time. Bed comfortable. Nice welcome gift. Highly recommend
Your advert for this property is wrong, Hen House View is located in Staffordshire and not Derbyshire. The property is lovely, the overgrown tree outside the building near the hot tub could do with cutting back. Everything you need is at this property and welcome pack is extremely thoughtful and appreciated. Prospective customers should be aware that some heavy plant and traffic on the one 1 track lanes due to 2 farms in the vicinity. We did our homework, as we had a dog with us we booked with being able to walk to 2 pubs for food, the Ye Olde Dun Cow in is not dog friendly unless you sit outside so weather permissive, The Greyhound is dog friendly and the home cooked food reviews looked good, however, when we arrived, the landlord said it was a wet pub and did not provide food even though it said that they do on the front of the building. Just be aware of this. Lovely getaway though, cant go wrong with HayleyMartin and the property, great private hot tub and secure grounds for the dog. Thanks for having us.
The pictures of the garden could do with updating, as its much more private and secure now. The frying pans could do with replacing.
Vanessa
Lovely location, piecefull and quiet. Lovely food at ye old sun cow would highly recommend.
We absolutely loved our stay and have already booked again for my birthday. We had everything you could think of and the welcome gift was a lovely touch. It was spotlessly clean and the bed was so comfy. The hot tub was amazing and we spent lots of time in there. There are two nice pubs within walking distance and the host was very informative about things to do.
Weve stayed at Hen House View twice now once in the winter and once in the summer. Both times we have thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. A bottle of Prosecco and a bag of crisps greet you, which a lovely gesture and gets the holiday off to a good start. Theyve spent money on all the right things spacious and high quality bathroom, super king bed, log burner and heated floor throughout the bathroom and living space. Everything you need is thoughtfully provided. The small but sweet garden is fully enclosed and feels very private. Theres lots of quiet walks around the area, perfect for dogs and people to explore. The local village shop, The Cow Shed in Colton, is well worth a visit, I recommend the takeaway lasagne. Overall I highly recommend this place and we look forward to our next visit.
Lovely stay, secure and private garden, perfect for our dog. Inside had everything we needed for our stay, very comfortable bed. Pub only 10 minutes walk, with nice food and a fabulous little shop. Dog was allowed in the pub garden and marquee. Easily able to access Cannock Chase forest, Litchfield, the cathedral is dog friendly, national memorial arboretum. Perfect stay with lovely touches like fizz, milk and crisps. Thank you for a wonderful stay Hayley
Hen House View is a lovely secluded bungalow with high grade finishing and a very comfortable bed. Hot tub was hidden away in the small but beautiful garden, the photo's are before the foliage grew so it is now very private would and have recommended this for a short stay. Hayley was very welcoming and we will definitely be back.
The lodge was very comfortable especially the bed and the bathroom was excellent. Lovely welcome package and hot tub. The only issue we had was the lane directly behind the lodge was very busy often with heavy equipment, starting early in the morning. We enjoyed our stay and the garden is lovely and fenced in which was great for the dog.
Hen House View is a lovely, relaxing, countryside retreat but within close proximity to attractions. The hot tub was great and because hedges have grown and the flowered garden has developed since photos were taken it is now very private. The property was spotlessly clean and well equipped with quality items. Plenty of room in the fridge with a smallish freezer compartment. Really good cooker. Very comfortable bed. Under floor heating worked well, controlled by a thermostat. We found the WiFi worked well. Within walking distance to Ye Old Dun Cow which was good for food but a little expensive. Lichfield was pleasant and our family really enjoyed the beautiful park. Canal side farm shop is well worth a visit for food. Nice cafe there and can enjoy a walk by the canal. Thank you Haley and Martin for the Prosecco and welcome items. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week with our family as we booked both properties. First time at Hen House View but weve stayed at The Hen House before and would highly recommend both. Strong possibility well be booking again.
A lovely place to stay, so relaxing and chilled, we didn't want to come back. We will be going again.
Fantastic little accommodation. Just right for 2 people. Everything you need on hand. Complimetarys we're much appreciated
Lovely lodge in a secluded area with access to footpaths. The hot tub and bath were amazing! The lodge had all the facilities we needed for our mini break.
An ideal place to stay for a couple that are looking for a quiet get away. The property is well maintained and clean. The bed is the most comfortable we have slept in away from home and the hot tub is ideal for a relaxing rest.
Hen House View was a well furnished property and ideal as a base for days out. Everything you might need for a couple and an energetic dog.
We had a very pleasant stay at Hen house view, we loved the modern kitchen and bathroom. The bed was very comfortable, we loved the super king size! The hot tub topped off our stay and made that little bit more special! The owners are very friendly and welcoming. We loved it and will love to come back again!
Dennis
Compact cottage with all the facilities and equipment you would need for a holiday. Great base for visiting the area such as Lichfield, National Arboretum highly recommend, Uttoxeter, Shrugborough Hall and many others. Living RoomKitchen fridge freezer listed but it is actually a fridge with freezer box, cooker very good, sofa comfortable, TV small and too high on the wall for us. Lighting could be brighter. Overall it was OK. Bathroom beautiful bathroom with separate powerful shower. Nice bright room. Need shelves for your toiletries etc. Bedroom super king size bed which was very comfortable. Nice bright room once main lights were on. Outdoors very good hot tub and small secure and private garden area. Plenty of parking space. We enjoyed our stay there and sure others will too.
We really enjoyed our first visit for our 4 night stay at Hen House View. It was very clean, comfy and cozy. The hot tub was perfect and completely private The lodge was well equipped and included all the minor things that most other places don't have. The owners were fantastic and provided good details on the surrounding places we could visit. Overall we give this place 10 out of 10 and look forward to our next visit.
