“Very enjoyable, well equipped and a great location.”

Many thanks for the Christmas cake on arrival

- Mr Jackson, December 2018

“Fabulous accommodation, highly recommend.”

The lodge was much bigger than we expected, plenty of room for 6 adults. Great to have option of single or double beds in all rooms. Facilities all seemed brand new and everything was super clean. Amazing hot tub, especially great at this time of the year in the cold! Lovely peaceful setting by the lakes (though proximity to motorway did mean you could hear road noise outside, quiet inside though). All the extra little touches made it extra special (Christmas tree, tea/coffee/milk provided, the owners even brought us a cake!). The owners were lovely and really have thought of everything you could need for a great stay.

“We had a fantastic stay in Birch Lodge.”

The owner was welcoming and helpful. The lodge was spacious, and lovely and warm. The little added extras made all the difference, such as milk, tea, coffee, washing up items, and a fantastic cake! Plus there was plenty plates/mugs/bowls/glasses too. We would happily recommend to others.

“You are lucky to get me to do a survey especially on the pretense of entry to a prize draw.”

Firstly I think your systems are fairly good but you assume too much about the customer and generate such automated rubbish in emails which don't take into account simple things like was this a holiday or a business trip, in my case I needed to be in a quiet location with good cellular access so I could do some very important remote working for my employer, it's easy to find out how far a person traveled from their home to the place of stay, in my case 10 minutes so why all the silly emails like "only a week until your holiday". It was not a holiday!!! Once I started to get those emails I changed my preferences to no contact from any source yet you still sent one about feedback which I have accepted but only so I could write this. You should know my thoughts on the property as I booked another for November which your email purports to know nothing about, I did not even check if there was any, even slight discount for booking again but there we go and there is feedback for you to ignore. Finding out more about your customer will stop the silly annoyances and make you business a whole lot more friendly. I know I speak for the few but we are here and our voices are just as important.

“This lodge was lovely and the owners were very nice.”

The lodge was spotlessly clean and well equipped. Alan even spent time teaching my children to fish which they enjoyed immensely. He gave up his time to do this which was very nice of him. We had such a lovely peaceful week.

- Mrs Martin, August 2018
“We had a amazing week at Birch lodge.”

The lodge itself is finished to a beautiful standard and had everything we needed and more, we all loved spending time in the luxury hot tub on the decking which had it's own privacy so you were not over looked. The view of the lake from the decking was amazing and very peaceful. This was a family holiday for us with our children and we found it to be a good base for days out with the children,I would definitely recommend Warwich castle which is la short drive from the lodge. I would also like to mention the owner Alan and he's staff who were extremely friendly and helpful. Alan also taught myself and children how to fish and provided us with fishing tackle which we really enjoyed. The lady from the cafe on site made us a beautiful chocolate cake on arrival which was fantastic. The cafe served some really nice homemade meals and prices were very good. The entire grounds were kept very clean and tidy with amazing views accrosed the 18 lakes. We had a brilliant holiday and will definitely return again in the future.

- Mr Dorrington, August 2018
“Great location and great hospitality by the owners”

- Mr Newbery, July 2018
“Beautiful lodge, in the perfect location.”

The lodge was spotless, had everything we needed and the owner was really helpful and on hand with anything we needed. The lodge is located by the fishery and the views were lovely. There was no WiFi available, but this did not affect our stay. The only downside while staying at Birch Lodge was the issue with ants and spiders indoors which was not so pleasant, but overall would recommend.

- Miss Zainub, April 2018
“My family and I had a brilliant time Marrying up the chance to see relatives without having to impose on them.”

And the luxury of having a great place to stay . Beautiful lake's to admire right on your door step . Wonderful hot tub to relax in And spend family time with the grandchildren At the end of our busy days Priceless x

- Mrs Walker, March 2018
“Beautiful lodge, quite place everything you need for a relaxing weekend away.”

Hot tub was brilliant. We will be going back

- Mr Skelly, March 2018
“The lodge was everything we hoped for , the owners were very friendly.”

Easy to book through Sykes and they emailed each step of the way and good communication with the owners.

- Miss Lynch, February 2018
“The owner made contact before the holiday and gave us the directions we needed.”

He liaised carefully and made sure that we had everything we needed when we arrived. The holiday accommodation was just as advertised. The lodge was warm and spacious and well furnished and the hot tub was clean and well set up. The owner could not have been more helpful. We would definitely go again. However we did not have any communication from Sykes other than the inaccurate email that told us we would be given directions to the holiday accommodation once we had paid in full. We HAD paid in full. Although Sykes did send us another email to say that we had paid, the directions did not come from them. I did not feel that Sykes as a company were particularly attentive in this matter.

About the location

WOLVEY

Nuneaton 5.5 miles; Birmingham 28 miles; Stratford-upon-Avon 28 miles

A delightfully small village in the north of Warwickshire. Wolvey is small yet offers all of your essentials including two very well-respected bar/restaurants along with a village shop, post office, bowling club and the Wolvey Hall, a Grade II listed building dating back to the 17th century. The parish village also has the River Anker running through it and offers some fantastic views, buildings and scenery. Despite this being a charming village, there are a lot of big cities nearby. Should you need to go shopping then Birmingham is within easy access, whereas a more cultural place would be Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of Shakespeare. Closer is the town of Nuneaton, a thriving place offering something for everybody.
