“We enjoyed our stay in thd Lodge.”

Just a few little issues that need addressing. * An instruction manual would have been helpful to operate the hob *The door kept closing on the microwave when trying to get hot food out of it, which could potentially cause an accident And a new tin opener is required as that one doesnt work. Apart from these little issues, we had a fantastic stay, the Lodge was spotlessly clean and full of home conforts. We would recommend your Lodge to others

“Beech Lodge is exactly as advertised.”

It's well maintained, clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our break there. The location was very quiet and peaceful. Our only issue we had was the "roads" leading to the location - they were single track unlit roads with quite a few sharp bends. Being in our 70s we didn't feel inclined to drive these tracks at night, as we had a few "encounters" in daylight e,g. having to back up to let others pass, break sharply to avoid speeding vehicles, etc. However, this didn't detract from peace we enjoyed in the lodge, it just meant we did not feel able to venture out at night.

“First class accommodation.”

Very comfortable and relaxing stay. The attention to detail regarding anything you would require during our stay was superb. A credit to the owners and their team. Already booked for next year.

“Very pleasant place to stay.”

Good facilities and very comfortable. Plenty of peace and quiet as it is located in a peaceful rural spot. Enjoyed our week at this property.

“We've been staying at Woodfold at least one week per year for 5 or 6 years now.”

We love the fishing, the peace and quiet, the proximity to Garstang or Bowland, and the lodges themselves, even though we only live around 20 miles away. Although all 3 lodges are laid out pretty identically Beech Lodge just edges it as our favourite, but you can't go wrong with the other 2 either. There are a few pubs nearby with good food, although best reached in the car, but for home cooking the lodges themselves have everything you need. I was so disappointed to be going home in June I booked another week in September!

“Love these properties.”

We have been going for the last five years. The fishing is excellent, the lodge has everything you will need and it’s in a great quiet location.

“A quiet spot just outside the village of Whitechapel.”

Well equipped and comfortable. We would have extended our stay had there been availability. Ideal for those interested in fishing and rambling. We can certainly recommend Beech Lodge.

“This was a beautiful lodge situated in a great country area with wildlife galore and lovely scenery.”

Also fishing lakes. It is beautifully decorated and great showers. Good cooking facilities. The owner was really nice and checked if we were ok. It is very near Blackpool, Preston and easy to get to Liverpool etc. Lovely surrounding villages, pub etc. A wee shout out for The Three Lights Restaurant. Great food. Lovely people. I would highly recommend the lodges to anyone.

Hi Lynn - Thank you for your lovely comments on the lodges and the surrounding areas. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Best wishes John & Sue Property Owner

“A very warm, comfortable lodge with a well-equipped kitchen.”

The surroundings were very peaceful with lovely countryside views. A good location for visiting areas of interest, particularly due to its proximity to the M6 motorway.

“My stay at this property was excellent.”

Sue and John were so attentive and caring making sure that my stay was so enjoyable. The scenery from the accommodation was beautiful. The facilities in the lodge were everything one would need, home from home.

“Definitely a five star experience!”

A very comfortable, spacious and well equipped lodge, with everything a couple, or small group, could need for a break. Surrounded by open countryside with well trimmed walks around the adjacent fishing lakes, distant views from the lounge and an afternoon sun-trap on the terrace what else could a person want? A glass of wine perhaps? Already provided - well done John and Sue!
