Cottage and facilities met expectations of information listed for a luxury lodge, however there were quite a few restrictions on use of facilities.. For example, hot tub rules, car access and the cafe was closed, even for takeout snacks (other than ice cream). This didn't actually effect our holiday but worth being clear for others. Also the restaurant opening times and checkout times had conflicting information causing some confusion as what is printed/advertised is not what we were verbally told (after the fact for the checkout which was the only real negative point of the stay as we felt we were rushed out before the printed time). The welcome prosecco and provided essentials (e.g. dishwasher tablets, fairy liquid, shower gel, hairdryer), over and above what was listed were a pleasant surprise and could help if advertised. The Croft restaurant deserves a special mention as this was extremely nice. We ate here on numerous occasions during our stay and enjoyed each and every meal - definitely worthwhile visiting but recommend booking.

We really enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the lodge also the spa temp had problems at the start but once mentioned within an hour it was fixed and lively to relax after a kind day out walking.. If there is one thing I would change it would be 3 seater settee not a two as we couldn’t lay down together. Fantastically run food at the restaurant was very tasty and happy staff .

Mrs Muttock, August 2020

Park was beautiful peaceful and very well maintained.. Location Idealic but still close to Shrewsbury for facilities. Lodges were to a very high standard. Staff were very welcoming helpful and friendly. Lovely Hot Tub Maintaned on a daily basis. Used most days I stayed. Took my Dog with me and she loved it. Decking around lodge secure for Dog. Small wood around lodges which my dog walked to and secure Exercise Paddock available which I took my dog to in morning and evening for a run around with her ball. Dogs kept on leads in park. Most visitors had dogs. Nice Swimming Pool. Good Fishing Facilities on Private Lakes only available to be used by Park Residents. Lots of Wildlife. Planning to book again.

Exceptionally bad weather however grounds and car parking space were consistently sodden - this included water collecting in a quite deep puddle right at the bottom of the entry steps so no far to access the lodge without getting feet wet! Car parking space is shared with an adjacent lodge and can be quite tight; especially with an inconsiderate resident neighbour who obviously feels they have more entitlement to be there than we did! The new Croft restaurant one site is lovely; however not being dog friendly on a holiday site which is seems to be a bit of an oversight and a missed opportunity. Other than that; excellent!

We where put in one of there log cabins by our insurance company as we had a leak at home . Good things it was clean two nice lakes but one did have a green bloom on it but they where treating it . We had our own hot tub which we loved beds where a bit hard but ok . What we did not like was the fact you could not bring any one to visit on less you paid £10 per person, plus you could not bring children on but there was a few kids on the site when I asked I was told they own there own log cabin so they where allowed to bring children on very unfair . There was no WiFi which in these days as got to be a must .

Mr Dunne

December 2018

Lodge was nice,location was peaceful and staff were friendly.. . We were disappointed when we arrived to be given a folder with an extensive list of rules and regulations ,none of which we had previously been made aware off on your website. .Rules included not using the hot tub after dusk,when our visit was in December this seemed very restrictive and visitors being charged parking and having to leave by a certain time,again seemed odd!! Although we enjoyed our visit we would not necessarily return due to all of the needless rules This is an adult only site and we felt that the rules contradicted that.

Mr Drummond

November 2018

Very happy over all.. Arrived at night couldn't see the cabin as there were no numbers on 15 and unlit. Sofa could have been bigger other than that very happy. Thanks Alex

Brilliant break away! The only thing I can critize is the lack of signs directing you into the park from the village, there's one sign on a lamppost but it's easy to miss and the postcode we received did not take us to the park. However, after a quick look on Google we managed to find out way there. The park is clean, tidy and well maintained. The lodge was immaculate and the hot tub was already turned on and up heat when we arrived. The staff were really friendly and helpful and advised us on some great stuff to do and see while we stayed. The restaurant is small but after reading some rave reviews it didn't not disappoint the Sunday lunch is beautiful and very reasonably priced. I even managed to squeeze a good day's fishing in on a well stocked lake with plenty of fish caught. This park would not suite all audiences, it is adults only and would not suite certain parties such as hen/stag weekends as there is not a lot of night life in the village and the park bar is attached to the restaurant. However, for a nice relaxing break to escape and just relax this is the best Park to go!

Mr Lloyd

When we booked the lodge with sykes we were not told we had to leave a £75 good house keeping bond.. If we had known this we would have never booked the holiday This should have been bought to our attention prior to booking the holiday-with yourselves We feel that you have not been honest with us and misleading us by not mentioning this prior to booking

Mrs Webb

Beautifully presented lodge wonderful setting views of the lake but not overlooked Very private when in the hot tub Friendly welcome on arrival .. Even slippers supplied Would recommend to our friends if they wanted the perfect chilled out break

Ms Beaumont

This is a delightful lodge on a quiet, peaceful site.. It provides all you need for a wonderful holiday and makes a great base to explore the beautiful Shropshire countryside.

Mrs Johnson

July 2018

Spent a week at this holiday park from 28th July.. Although the lodge was clean and the parks surroundings were lovely there are too many rules and regulations. It is supposed to be an adults only park yet you were treated like a child. Very disappointed to find no WiFi in the lodge and the housekeeping charge of £75 is extortionist. Owners quite abrupt and not very welcoming. The handbook that was given to you where just full of dos and don’ts and charges for this and that. Would not recommend this site and won’t be returning

The lodge is on a lovely site with very friendly and helpful staff.The lodge was very clean and warm. The beds were very comfortable, there is quite a bit of traffic noise from a near by road. W hat could make the lodge perfect would be a nice comfortable sofa and chairs you can chill out on and watch tv. They were very upright and the sofa very small. Could do with tv in the bedrooms. The hot tub was lovely after a long day of walking, but the decking and steps to lodge very slippy

Miss Knapton

Beautiful location, dog friendly and lots of walks to have.. Lovely roomy lodge with wonderful hot tub. Good location for access to shops/supermarkets. Would recommend staying there to anyone.

Mr Ash

THE SITE IS FANTASTIC,EXCELLENT STAFF & THE FISHING IS BRILLIANT,CAUGHT A FISH EVERY CAST.. THE SURROUNDING AREA IS FILLED WITH LOTS OF THINGS TO DO,I CAN HIGHLY RECCOMEND,ATTINGHAM MANSION,ONE OF THE BEST NATIONAL TRUST HOUSES WE HAVE VISITED. THE VICTORIAN VILLAGE IN TELFORD IS SUPERB. SHREWSBURY HAS A LARGE MARKET PLUS EVERY SHOP YOU CAN THINK OF. TRIP DOWN THE RIVER IS RECCOMENDED ALSO. ALL IN ALL A GREAT LODGE AND WE WILL BE BACK.THE OWNER OF THE SITE SHOULD BE COMMENDED FOR KEEPING IT SO NEAT AND TIDY

On arrival at the lodge everything so meat and tidy and clean. Fresh flowers and bottle of wine which was nice. Enjoyed our stay ,only downfall was the traffic noise.

Mrs Clarke

We had a very relaxed and an enjoyable holiday in the Callow Lodge, we would certainly come again. The hot tub was a great addition and well used. The overall experience couldn't be faulted and we loved that there were no children around while we were there.

Mrs Litchfield

The hot tub on the deck! We made use of this every day. The reception and general staff were very helpful, the site owners were extremely courteous and nothing was too much trouble for them. They gave us lots of information about the surrounding areas.

Mr Carter

My wife and I are retired professional people and always go away for my birthday in April. The reason we chose Callow lodge was we wanted / needed a stress free break. Upon arrival on site the greeting was very warm and we were handed a list of 15 rules regarding the use of the hot tub. These included showering before use, don't exceed 30 minutes in the tub, don't consume alcohol and don't use after dusk !!! The rules concerning the use of the lodge included wearing a pair of slippers whilst inside ( provided and worth about 50p per pair) and it was suggested you take them home at the end of your stay and be charged £4 per pair. The towels provided were not matching, of poor quality, not new and again could be taken home and charged for. The crockery was acceptable but the cutlery was disgusting and far from what should be provided in what is described as a luxury lodge. Because I have a mobility problem I normally keep all of my fishing tackle in an expensive trailer directly outside my accommodation. I was told, after paying my deposit ,that it would have to be kept some 100+ yards away so I had to buy another car big enough to hold everything. All in all this turned out to be an extremely stressful break and the lodge fell well short of what we would describe as luxurious. At the end of your stay you are required to strip the bed and put all dirty linen and towels in the hallway. We are in the market to purchase our own lodge but this is one site that won't be included in our short list. Gordon & Jenny Hinchcliffe.....Chesterfield.

It was exactly what we were looking for, tranquillity! Had a very relaxed feel even in the communal parts of the park, the entire experience was wonderful. It was close to a handful of places you could grab a bite to eat. The lodge had a very welcoming feel, modern with a feel of homely comfort. Fab.

An absolutely fantastic place; a beautiful setting with very friendly and helpful staff. The cabin was clean, luxurious, warm and comfortable and it was fantastic to be able to bring our dog with us.

Miss Cheswick

It was so relaxing and a lovely place. Really enjoyed the fact we could just jump in the hot tub and it was private.

We have just returned today from 'Callow Lodge' and we must admit we thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at the Lodge. Facilities impeccable. The site itself was very peaceful The staff are all very friendly both on site and at the 'The Bothy Restaurant'' - At the restaurant there was enough food served to feed an army so well worth every penny. Would recommend the lodge to anyone and we will certainly be visiting again - thank you again for a lovely stay Di n Dave

We stayed at the Lodge for three nights. It is located on Beaconsfield Farm Park, which is a mixture of caravans and the lodges, which are set around a lake. The property was very clean and warm. The private hot tub on the deck outside was lovely, and very novel in cold and frosty weather. We used the swimming pool and steam room (extra charge) which were excellent. The lodge is very well situated for exploring the Shropshire area. As mentioned in a previous review, the lodge is right by the busy A49, and the railway line, which were both noisy, so if you like to sleep with the window open, it is worth taking earplugs. Make sure you visit the Dog in the Lane pub is nearby Astley, which is a two mile walk away, and well worth a visit.

The Callow Lodge was very clean and we enjoyed the hot tub. Would recommend it to anybody. We would love to go back - worth every penny!

Guest

January 2012

A very comfortable cottage, set in a convenient location for Shrewsbury and the surrounding areas. The only thing that we were slightly unhappy with was the proximity of the other cottages and the road noise from the a49. Having said this though, we had a great time and are considering booking another long weekend here.

December 2011

Myself and my girlfriend visited the callow lodge in sept for a long weekend and were pleasantly surprised with the facilities both in the lodge and at the site. Being an adults only site was very good as the site was more relaxed and not packed out. Facilities within the lodge were very good and particularly the use of the private hot tub. The only downside I could possibly mention is the site didn't take credit/debit cards only cash which when they required £70 deposit + when we went out to eat at the on site restaurant which also required cash meant we required multiple trips out off site for cash.

Mr Watson

August 2011

A nice location on a quiet country park. A friendly site and the cabin was well situated. For those who like fishing, there are two well stocked lakes.

A very ideal place to spend some romantic time with someone you love
