Had the most wonderful time away with 2 adults and 3 children. Also joined by family who stayed in the next door lodge. This was the most beautiful setting with lots of amenities - hot tub, natural swimming pool, gym, swings, chickens, goats, donkeys. Such a friendly and relaxing place to stay. We will be back! Thank you

I booked this lodge for my family after a very busy time for all of us. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy time together or on our own when our girls ( 16 and 20) wanted to be alone. We all used the hot tub and the outside swimming area, which was something I had always wanted to do. We stayed in the dragonfly lodge and would recommend

We have just returned from a weeks holiday at the dragonfly lodge. We are completely recharged :). The lodge was a real home from home and the hot tub is a great place to relax in the peaceful location. We will definitely return and would highly recommend this location for a peaceful relaxing retreat.

We had a great week at Dragon Fly Lodge. The surroundings are lovely and felt very safe, we didn't feel the need to lock the doors when we went out. The gym has an amazing amount of equipment, my son and daughter loved it and were in there every day. They also enjoyed a few dips in the natural pool. The nearby town of Ledbury has some interesting sRead morehops and pubs and even a little museum which is free to enter. Would recommend the Corner House Cafe for some good home-cooked food. Hide

We had a wonderful stay at DragonFly Lodge. We made full use of the natural pool, gym and hot tub. The lodge was fully equipped and plenty of space for the family and our furry friend.
