    We had an amazing stay at Gladwyns Farm Lodge! The lodge was spotless, beautiful, and incredibly comfortable — perfect for a relaxing family break. Karen was a wonderful host, and the thoughtful birthday cake, beautiful welcome hamper, and bottle of bubbly were such lovely surprises.The hot tub was fantastic and a real highlight for the whole family. Set in peaceful surroundings, it was the perfect place to unwind and spend quality time together. Highly recommended — we can’t wait to return!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Had a really lovely stay at Gladwyns lodge for a long weekend. Karen, the host, was super responsive and left us a gorgeous hamper of treats (including a number of homemade items!). Would definitely recommend staying here (and some friends & I are thinking of coming back!).
