Great stay
A spacious, well equipped house with very efficient heating during a cold spell. The owners are friendly and exceptionally responsive. We were there with age ranges from 8 to 78. The pool table, games room and hot tub kept everyone happy. We catered for 19 easily - there are 2 kitchens and we all fitted round the long dining table for meals. There are nice walks from the property. Overall a great venue for a family reunion.

Family Xmas getaway
We celebrated our parents 50th wedding Anniversary with all the family. This was the perfect place for 20 of us with ages ranging from 70 down to 2 years old. Living areas, Kitchens and bedrooms were all well equipped. Good communication and easy check in process. Hot tub was great.The only slight issues we had were the lack of laundry facilities, and only having 1 fairly small dishwasher

Great property!
We had a great stay! Thank you to Kim & John!
The check in process was so easy. Rang the number by the front door, and Kim was there within a minute to give me a tour of the property, and show me how to use the hot tub.
The house is massive! Plenty big enough for our hen weekend needs.
There was more than enough seating for everyone in the lounge and the dining room.
The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, as well as serving dishes, plates, bowls, mugs, glasses and cutlery for all!
There are lots of nails in the walls to hang decorations from (suggested by Kim!)
The rooms were clean and spacious. There’s storage to un pack if staying for a while.
All bedrooms having an en-suite was a must for us, and this property provides that.
There was plenty of hot water, and the shower pressure wasn’t bad, even with 9 people showering at the same time.
A quick note for future renters, 3 of the rooms require you to go outside to get to them. It’s a literal 2 second sprint in the rain, so not too bad! Just something we didn’t realise before booking. (Would have still booked anyway!)
John was always just a text away if we had any questions.
The ice machine on the fridge doesn’t work, but there was a bag of ice in the freezer when we arrived. (Not sure if this was left by the hosts or previous renters, but it definitely came in handy!)
The only thing we struggled with was that the WiFi didn’t really go further than the lounge. Other than that, we have no complaints!

Amazing Property
Amazing weekend. Kim gave us a very warm welcome after a much longer journey than expected and even took out Tesco delivery in. She explained very clearly where everything was and the rules ( only a few). The house is fantastic for a large group who all want to eat together and sit in the lounge together. The facilities were fantastic and they have thought of everything. Plenty of crockery, fridges, glasses and seating for our party of 24 if various ages from 1 to 64. The pool table was a massive hit with our group.

Perfect for a big family get together
Lovely house with everything we needed for a big family get together with grandparents, parents and children (teenagers and younger).
John and Kim were very friendly and welcoming and replied very quickly to queries before we arrived.
The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. The layout meant there was lots of flexibility too - there was a big living room with pool table plus a smaller snug for PlayStation, DVD or just relaxing in a smaller group. The two kitchens gave flexibility for food prep and the table in the kitchen meant a few people could eat quietly there if they wanted to. Picnic tables and sun loungers meant adults could sit and relax in the garden while chatting to others in the hot tub.
Very quick and easy to find from the M1, but no road noise. Lots of lovely walks and scenery nearby.

Whitton Lodge ticks all the boxes.
The photos don't really do the house justice. It is very spacious, very comfortable, very well appointed. It's an ideal location for an informal family get together, involving people of varying ages. We just loved it, despite torrential rain.

Note the layout means family rooms were not part of the main building making it a little difficult for those with young children.
