  Such a lovely, cosy cottage!

  My husband, brother, brother-in-law and I had to make last minute Christmas plans, and we could not have chosen a better place to spend our Christmas! The cottage was just as expected from the photos on the listing and even nicer once inside as the place was decorated for Christmas with little decorations here and there and a tree in the living. There was even a Christmas card and a box of chocolates awaiting our arrival, which was a very lovely touch indeed. The kitchen was so well equipped, we had no trouble preparing anything at all and we had lots of space to store things. The fridge was quite small, but for 4 people with rather large appetites for Christmas food that needs to be stored in the fridge, that's on us and our choice of foods really! The bathroom and bedrooms upstairs were very comfortable and spacious with good light and just as depicted in the photos. Two things I will say: We first arrived in the evening when it was very dark and found the cottage a bit tricky to locate, as the map shown for the location didn't match the written instructions we were sent. But we managed it and made it into the cottage in the end! The height of the doorways and the ceilings downstairs could be problematic for anyone that might be rather tall. 3 out of 4 of us are quite short so we had no trouble, but my brother (the tallest of the group, around 6ft) had to duck under the doorways throughout the cottage, but once in the rooms themselves he was just fine! Overall, it was a truly wonderful and very comfortable stay and we'd absolutely love to book again!

  Oh Deer was incredible.

  Absolutely immaculate. As we arrived we were welcomed by the lovely Jane. As we were coming to oh dear for our mini moon, I’d brought some of my wedding flowers with me. Jane went out of her way to go get me a vase to display them in the pod. The pod is designed so well and meets all of your needs. If you were self catering there would be no reason to actually have to leave the pod. There were really lovely touches such as, the welcome book with ideas of what to do during your stay, books which we used one of to go on a trail.. it was so fun! A box with games in so we had lil card night with pizza, there was a Prosecco on arrival and choc buttons which were delicious. The hot tub was really easy to follow and use, this was also cleaned on our second day and refilled for us. The view is great and the surroundings are so quiet and with the view of the deers it was just bliss. We spent 4 nights in the pod and we definitely wanted to stay longer and there was plenty more for us to go and do, we have already said we will definitely stay there again!

  We had an unforgettable stay at Oh Deer glamping pod that was the perfect honeymoon getaway.

  From the moment we arrived, our host Jane was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and offering great local recommendations. The pod itself was spotless and beautifully decorated, with a cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. One of the highlights was the relaxing hot tub, which was a fantastic way to unwind while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The area around the pod was tranquil, providing a perfect escape and it was magical watching the deer frolick in the distance. Despite the serene setting, we found plenty of exciting places to explore just a short drive away. Whether it was scenic trails or charming local spots, there was no shortage of things to do. To top it off, the personalized touches for our honeymoon were truly special. A welcome with thoughtful goodies, prosecco, Mr & Mrs/congratulations decor and a heartfelt card made our stay even more memorable. Overall, this glamping pod was an ideal choice for our honeymoon, and we can’t wait to return!

  We had an excellent stay at Oh Deer.

  Jane the owner had wonderful hospitality and attention to detail, she meets you on arrival and talks you through everything which is lovely. Proseco, coffee/tea/hot choc and milk and biscuits were all provided which was a delightful addition to the pod. Oh deer itself was roomy, well equipped, incredibly clean and the bed and shower were superb. We really appreciated all the decoration and attention to detail that had gone in to decorating Oh Deer and it really elevated our stay to make it more enjoyable. The log fire hot tub was lovely and relaxing and Jane was an amazing host and helped us out a lot and nothing was too much trouble. Overall I would highly recommend Oh Deer it’s a wonderful place to stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back, we couldn’t fault anything it was perfect. It’s also a superb location with local pubs and farm shops near by and lots of good pubs and service are not too far of a drive or a walk down the road !

  A modest, comfortable warm, well designed and well equipped lodge.

  Easy to find and set in spectator countryside. We enjoyed two nights at Harry's lodge with our two dogs. The lodge was set in a fully fenced paddock. This was ideal as we could just open the door and let the dogs have a mooch and do their business without a lead. Would have given 5 stars but there were a couple of niggles which didn't detract from a great stay. The shower door worked just fine but was not set in the runners properly so potentially could be hazardous. Also, the mattress was a standard double and very hard. There was a topper in place so there had been an attempt to improve its comfort but I didn't sleep very well. Unfortunately the room would be too small for a king size. I realise mattresses are hard to get right as the are subjective. In spite of this, we would definitely book again, as it was ideal for the dogs and convenient for the exploring the local area, attractions and sites of interest.
