Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently note the lodge's spotlessness and the pristine condition of the oven and showers. The hot tub is also mentioned as being clean and well-kept, contributing to the high score.
The lodge's tranquil setting by Rudyard Lake is frequently praised, with its proximity to local walks and attractions. The peacefulness and natural beauty of the area contribute to the high score.
Reviews highlight the comfortable beds, spaciousness, and warm atmosphere of the lodge. The underfloor heating and large hot tub add to the comfort. A few comments about the bunk beds being small and sofas only seating four slightly lower the score.
The lodge is well-equipped with high-quality utensils and appliances, and the hot tub is a highlight. Regular maintenance checks are appreciated. Some minor issues with a CO2 alarm and garden security slightly affect the score.
Guests mention thoughtful gestures such as a welcoming bottle of wine and the provision of high-quality towels. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it is noted that such gifts are offered at the owners' discretion and may not be guaranteed.
About this property
Leek 3.1 miles. Nestled in the lakeside village of Rudyard, a few miles from the bustling market town of Leek, is this charming lodge. With a contemporary interior, wood panelled walls and neutral hues, this property combines a traditional feel with quality furnishings. Choose to spend those quieter evenings relaxing in the open-plan living space, with two large sofas to cosy up under a blanket and delight in the provided Smart TV, catching up with all your favourite shows. Dine together at the dining table, where you can go for a delicious meal and toast to a wonderful holiday with a well-deserved glass of champagne. The compact kitchen has plenty of preparation space and houses all the necessary appliances for a week-long stay. Resting towards the rear are three bedrooms, set up as two king-size doubles and a bunk room, suitable for friends or families. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms share a family shower room. Throw open the patio doors during the summer months and let the cool breeze wash over the interior, before stepping out to the decking area and dining alfresco. Or choose to enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub and let those bubbling jets work their magic on your aching muscles. While you're in the area, choose to visit Rudyard Lake or Tittesworth Reservoir, both perfectly situated for those seeking to get involved with a variety of watersporting activities. Further afield is the Peak Wildlife Park, home to a family zoo, something your little ones would delight in exploring. Due to the property's position, just on the outside of the Peak District National Park, you will have easy access inside for all manner of country attractions, including walking and cycling routes, not to mention the wonderful Dovedale Nature Reserve. Just over an hour's drive away is the bustling city of Stafford, home to a large number of tourist attractions including the historic Stafford Castle, National Trust property of Shugborough Estate and much more. Watersview Lodge is a charming base for a family break to this wonderful part of Staffordshire.

The owners were fast to respond to any questions and were kind enough to supply a travel cot and airdryer for our 2 week visit. Hot tub was a big hit with the family. We would highly recommend this quiet cabin.

However the accommodation is tired and need a deep clean. The sofa needs cleaning, the cushions need renewing and the cupboard doors in the Kitchen need fixing under the sink. The site itself needs a gardener to tidy it all up.

The hosts were easily contacted and provided a simple and hassle free check in/out. And let's not forget the well maintained and amazing hot tub! Only one criticism is the small sofas for relaxing in the evenings, as there was only room for 4 people even though the lodge sleeps 6.
