“Really enjoyed Tickencote.”

please note. twin beds were made up as a double! Your info said it would be made up as a twin unless otherwise requested. But we found that room too claustrophobic anyway so we managed in the double room. My husband is disabled and single beds are easier. But we managed OK.

A nice touch was the freshly washed dog bed and water dish for our Jack Russell....nice touch. 5 star accommodation. Tricia F Knowles

“The lodge had everything you could need for a holiday break.”

It was warm, very comfy and well equipped. Ideally situated near Rutland water, had great walks with our dog and also explored a lot of the surrounding villages. Ate at the hotel on our last night as they offered a 20% discount which was very welcome and they also allowed our dog in. Food was excellent. This was a perfect place to spend a weeks holiday and we would have no hesitation in recommending this lodge.

“Excellent lodge with everything there on site to have a relaxing time”
Mrs Paddon-Hall October 2018

“The pictures on of Tickencote Lodge that I saw on your website don't do it justice.”

The grounds that the lodges are in are kept neat and tidy, the gravel is raked regularly, and the interiors of the lodges are excellent. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and I received immediate service to remedy a broken door handle and blown lightbulbs. We used our satnav to get to Barnsdale Lodge but when we were about 100 or so yards away it sent us left instead of right at a T junction, it would be good if this could be remedied. We had a lovely week and would stay there again without hesitation.

“Lovely well appointed lodge, great location with access to hotel bar and restaurant.”

Staff in hotel helpful and friendly.
Miss O'Riordan August 2018

“Everything lovely but only downfall is the road noise so it was not enjoyable sitting out in the sun.”

There are two busy roads on two sides of the property. We would possibly go again if we got a cottage in the farthest corner away.

To the south of the village are Barnsdale Gardens, created by Geoff Hamilton for the BBC's Gardeners' World, and the Barnsdale Hall Hotel and Country Club.
