The Dragonfly Retreat Reviews

Emily Carter
We had an amazing family break with 2 adults and three kids, plus family next door in another lodge. The location was stunning, with loads to do like a hot tub, natural pool, gym, swings, chickens, goatsand donkeys - so much to keep everyone entertained. Really friendly staff, super relaxing vibe. Can't wait to return! Thanks so much!

We chose this lodge for a much-needed break and it really hit the spot. The hot tub and outdoor pool were highlights, especially since we all enjoyed some time unwinding there. The Dragonfly Lodge was cosy and perfect for our family, giving everyone some space when needed. It was just what we needed after a hectic period. Definitely recommend it if you want a peaceful retreat with nice facilities.

We really enjoyed our stay here! The lodge was beautifully decorated, perfect for New Year. The owners were super friendly and helpful. The hottub was a real highlight, even in the rainy weather. The onsite gym was a nice bonus too, definitely recommend!

Emma Turner
We spent a fantastic week at the Dragonfly Lodge with the kids and the dog. The place really is a haven for relaxing - we loved the natural pool, the hot tuband firing up the barbecue daily. Michelle was a lovely host, clearly putting a lot of effort into making sure we felt at home. It's just the perfect spot to unwind and recharge. We'll definitely be returning soon!
Emily
The setting is just gorgeous, with the lodge being really clean and roomy. We loved the view of the natural pool and trees. The owners clearly care a lot and are super helpful too.
Sam Parker
We stayed at Dragonfly Lodge for a mid-week break in November and really enjoyed it. The place is super comfy, spaciousand well equipped - perfect for relaxing. We're already thinking about coming back in the summer to sit outside on the balcony with a drink. We loved using the hot tub and the gym was pretty impressive, plus the sauna on the last night was a nice touch, especially after a quick dip in the icy pool! It's a shame there aren't any pubs within walking distance, but a short drive made things easy. Our son was happy to do the driving, so we could really unwindand he reckons it's the best WI-FI he's had on holiday!
Alex Harper
Honestly, our stay at Dragonfly Lodge was just lovely. The cottage itself was charming and really well-kept, with everything we needed. Clive and Shelley made us feel so welcome; they're genuinely friendly folks. The location was peacefuland the minimal light pollution meant we could enjoy stargazing from the hot tub-such a magical experience! The resident donkey, Flintstone, was adorable and quite the character, always up for a carrot. We really didn't want to leave after four nights. Definitely a place to unwind and relax-highly recommend!
Emma
We really enjoyed ourselves! Shelly and Clive made it special, nothing was too much troubleand we're already planning to return soon.
