Very nice lodges in a lovely quiet village with a superb pub and little shop. Plenty of space for 4 couples and as the bedrooms are all ensuite there are no arguments! The hot tub is a good bonus. The lodges are well equipped and very warm and toasty for a winter break. They stayed that way despite us being in the midst of storm Darragh!

Modern spacious lodge with all bedrooms en-suite. 3 doubles and 1 twin. One of the doubles has a bath with overhead shower, the rest have showers only. Skylark was at the end of small group of 4 lodges, so was not overlooked and using the hot tub was private. Plenty of parking. Within a few minutes of the village and pub but no footpath if walking,Read more so bear in mind especially at night. Drove to both Oswestry and Shrewsbury. Oswestry smaller and more quaint with some lovely independent shops. Hide

Amazing place, beautiful surroundings and great company. The only thing I would change would have been the pillows in some of the bedrooms. The ones in the twin room were really hard but that is a personal preference. We really enjoyed our stay and will be coming back again.

Lovely property in a lovely setting. There were 8 of us. The four en suite bedrooms ideal. The properties look out onto a green area and otherwise surrounded by fields. The hot tub in the skylark retreat sat 5. The other properties had hot tubs that sat 8. The properties are built to park cars there. Most of us took the train and there was an issueRead more with taxi companies coming out to that location. Jeff and burgess taxis were the best when others refused and were really reasonable. Hide

Lovely, quiet location, the Skylark Retreat was everything we had hoped for. The layout is well done and roomy allowing you relax in comfort. The hot tub was great for all young and older. Full use was made of the tennis court and play area. Quality fittings throughout. Great venue to catch up with friends from further away.
