Provider-sourced guest reviews.
They had goats and geese which entertained my daughter. The Hosts were extremely accomodating, I mentioned my daughter would need to nap and they set up our room so we could get there and she had time to nap before we did anything else.
No fault of the hosts but unfortunately some guests were not considerate of other guests and were playing music extremely loud and during the entire night until the morning.
Beautiful rooms, very comfortable. Beautiful venue, with space for kids to play and husbands to fish. Nice and close to the Midlands meander so plenty to do, see and eat in the area!
Location was excellent The room was large and bright and equipped for the cold weather. The bathroom was large, shower was fantastic.
It would have nice to have self catering option or breakfast offered.
Beautiful setting and comfortable rooms
Had a lovely stay at Lavender Trout Farm. Great bed. Loved the electric blanket and luxurious bedding. Lovely bath and shower. The most beautiful view of the trees and water, and I enjoyed the animal sounds.
The photos don't do justice to just how cosy the place is. I had a minor incident and they were so gracious and refused for me to pay extra for the damage .I would highly recommend staying there and will mostly definitely do it again.
It is very neat and clean! Beautiful views! Great location. The host is very friendly and accommodating! It was an unforgettable stay!
Nothing to complain about.
Amazing property, lovely home to stay in
The scenery is a plus point! Very homey and cosy accommodation, feels like home away from home. Very neat and clean and friendly staff. I would 100% recommend.
My fireplace made a lot of smoke in the room, I had to open all the windows and door.
Clean, central and great hospitality.
Nothing.
Conveniently positioned, easily accessible. Fantastic, beautiful setting
Nothing
It has beautifully renovated bathrooms, wonderfully cosy warm beds and an efficient fireplace to keep us warm. Walking trail was great.
Nothing
The management and staff were accommodating. The unit was well maintained and clean. Loved the serene surroundings as well.
There was nothing that I did not like
Love this place, my go for to place in the Midlands. It’s beautiful, clean, spacious rooms with a fireplace. Great location, short drive to MHS! Jo and her staff are very friendly and helpful.
Nothing
This is a very well run establishment. Easy access from the N3 but feels incredibly remote. Great walking and cycling routes on the property with a clean running stream and well looked after forests. Facilities are pretty comfortable and well appointed. A Special treat was Toffee a little Jack Russell willing to show off his party tricks for your amusement and several different types of farm animals. Jo was always in touch but never intrusive and we actually didn't meet her. This is a piece of paradise.
Nothing
The location was very easy to find. Check in process super simple and the room exceptionally neat and clean. The property is very tranquil and has activities available for children also. I loved the running route (trail run).
Mother and daughter trip. Felt at home and well taken care of.
Location for us was excellent. We went as a family for the purposes of a family wedding at The Groves. Very comfortable and spacious and private.
Outside verandah lounge chairs. Seats were uncomfortable. Seat cushion needs to be braced underneath or new foam requires to cushions. All of the seats sink inwards making the chairs and couches uncomfortable to sit in after awhile. Separate bathrooms in main house only had hot water. This problem was resolved on our last night of stay.
We loved our stay at Lavendar Trout and will definitely be back.
The only negative was that we could hear our neighbours television until late into the night. The rooms are not soundproof due to the (locked) interleading door between rooms.
Its a great place to stay with children with goats and ducks a pool and a play area. Jo was a fantastic host and communicated well the entire trip. Close to shops and restaurants.
We stayed for one night as it was ideal location near to Nottingham road. The rooms are big and very comfortable with king size beds and lovely decor. It was peaceful and lovely nature walks. We went to Rawdons pub for meals 5 minutes away. Can highly recommend staying here.
Nothing
Rooms are absolutely stunning, bed is super comfy and nice big hot shower😃
Lovely location. Friendly dogs. Very well oiled machine. Pub in Nottingham Road excellent.
The WiFi switched off in the morning. Instructions very clear and to the point. Stay lacked a little bit of the personal touch for me. However, for most this would suit!
Room was really lovely. There are a few gorgeous friendly Jack Russells that just make it extra wonderful. The setting is quite extraordinary. The attention to detail was delightful.
I think there could be a small honour bar. Just to have some wine, snacks. etc. as the shops are a little way away.
Ideal setting, stunning cottage with all amenities
Can't think of anything I didnt like
Beautiful location, stunning rooms and very comfortable.
I have no complaints
Comfy beds and nice bathroom. Lots of things to do onsite and I enjoyed the animals roaming around the property, very cool.
Nothing
The location and setting was absolutely perfect. We were a large family of 13 people and the layout was ideal. It was also nice and quiet so you didnt even see any other guests while there.
Beautiful surroundings! We were upgraded to the cottage for our overnight stay. Well equipped and cozy - there was a fire on the go for us on arrival. Host was very friendly and communicative. Was very clean and comfortable. Really pretty accommodation. The shower was lovely!
Stunning! The setting is so tranquil, and scenic - you feel a serene presence as soon as you drive in. The room was beautiful - spacious, and comfortable, with the fireplace ensuring we were toasty! Everything about this farm was charming, and we completely loved it. P.s. Toffee (the little Jack Russel) was the cherry on top, and loved her little pop-ins!
Clean, convenient and all amenities you could ask for in a self catering unit. Easy to access and very comfortable as they provided fireplace amenities and extra duvets and electric blankets for warmth.
Friendly staff The place was very clean
Great venue and great facilities.
Beautiful views, relaxing on veranda watching goats and geese. Friendly dogs and helpful staff. Accomodation was excellent.
Had a wonderful stay at Lavender Trout. Jo and her staff, led by Noxy, were really great with communication and coordination and made sure everything was perfect for our arrival. The cottages are really charming with a great Midlands feel. The fireplace was thoroughly enjoyed. They have all the facilities one might need and were very clean and well maintained. The surrounding grounds and Dam were also in great condition. Great value for money and we will definitely be back to stay again.
Nothing
The scenery was breathtaking. We had a lovely set of ladies to clean up. Ample firewood for our cold nights and a fully self catering unit. A lovely place and a memorable weekend all in all
The braai could have better lighting as it light falls earlier in winter and we braaid in the dark. I did make make mention on a mesage to the owner and Jo mentioned she may add on fairy lights so this is a great idea.
We stayed at the main house and it has every facility you could possibly need. Additionally it was the midst of winter and we had lots of wood for fire and/or heaters and electric blankets in every room. They even have a little table and chairs for the littles with us (ages 2-6 years old) and a lovely little jungle gym and trampoline for the kiddos too. Plus there is a full size pizza oven too! And even a dam for trout fishing and also some geese and goats. Looking forward to coming back when it’s warmer so we could use the beautiful looking pool too. Great location as well for exploring Nottingham road area.
Everything about Lavender Trout Guest Farm is amazing. The view, the service, the cleanliness and not to talk about the friendly dogs! This was an absolute pleasure!
Nothing. We were happy from the moment we arrived.
Thank you Jo at Lavenger Trout Guest Farm, we had a wonderful stay. Room was super comfy and sparkling clean. Will certainly be back, and not to forget Toffee and friend that made wonderful companions for the weekend 😀
Can hear people in next room if there is someone there but other than that, it's perfect
We stayed in the Stone Cottage, 2-bedroom unit, beautifully and well equipped in a very beautiful setting. We have been coming back to Lavender Trout Guest Farm and will continue doing so.
Beautiful property. Lovely host. Comfortable bed. Fireplace makes it special
The room was waaay bigger than we expected. Very comfy accommodation.
I would add maybe bottled water in the room(even if it’s charged for at the end of your stay)
Everything was outstanding
Nothing
The dam is very scenic and the walking trails on the grounds were excellent. Highlights were Toffee and Nelson - the two super friendly Jack Russell's. So cute and loving. Lovely fireplace kept the room very toasty.
Beautiful surroundings. Friendly staff. Toffee the dog 🐕
Peaceful , Tranquil and so Magistical . Even more Beautiful in real life than pictures . The fireplace was such a nice touch especially with the overcast rainy weather . Very spacious rooms and bathrooms equipped with everything. Would love to return in the summer and use outdoor facilities very scenic swimming pool ,walking trails and the dam that has a beautiful deck above it . Will definitely be back a hidden gem in the Midlands.
Beautiful location! Fabulous spacious rooms with fireplace. Very friendly and helpful staff.
