Lodge at Tap Haus

"Manager very attentive upgraded rooms because of an issue with air conditioning. Small fridge would have been a bonus but everything we needed in all our rooms, extra water and condiments in hallway. Fresh fruit was a nice touch. Restaurant was 10/10. The only disheartening incident was being refused Scottish bank notes, it is legal tender, definitely not the welcome we expected. Scotland is still part of the United Kingdom."

Top Rufford Abbey Hotel Reviews

The Forest Lodge

8/10 Good

"Room was spacious, clean and the en suite adequate. We ate an evening meal and the menu was varied, the food tasty. The bar has a warm atmosphere. All staff were friendly and helpful. The morning staff went out of their way to make us feel relaxed and special. They were chatty, helpful and efficient. Special thanks to them. Overall, our stay was comfortable and we would definitely return. The only negative is that everything looks a little tired and in need of some “tweaking”. Otherwise, a very pleasant stay."

Chapel Farm BNB

8/10 Good

"Lovely, boutique little place, rural and remote so peaceful but also makes it very hard to find..no signage and under a different name. The phone number didnt work and the Google maps location isnt quite right. Tv didnt work properly and there was no AC or fan which is probably usually ok but not hottest day of the year, but that couldnt be helped."

The Old Ropery at Mill Cottage - Unwind where ropes once twined

10/10 Excellent

"My family and I had a really lovely stay here. We were a group of three adults, three children and a dog and the cottage provided ample space for all of us during our two night stay. The cottage was nicely decorated and furniture was comfortable and good quality. Everything was clean and well maintained and my nephews particularly enjoyed the stocked cupboards of board games! We really appreciated the high chair, children's dinnerware and toys too for our 18 month old niece staying here. The kids also enjoyed the short stroll to McDonald's for breakfast and the dog was very happy with the field down the road! We visited Sherwood Forest, Sherwood Pines and Rufford Abbey all within a 10 minute drive. We all really enjoyed our stay here and would happily be back. We actually had to coax our dog out of the cottage when it was time to leave, he didn't want to go at all! Only minor problem was we were sent two different codes to the gates to get in. We didn't realise this at first and the first code we tried contained in an email from Vrbo was incorrect and didn't work causing a slight panic when we arrived. Luckily, we did eventually get enough signal to get online and find the correct code. "

2 bedroom accommodation in Edwinstowe, near Mansfield

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice cottage, clean, warm and comfortable. Well equipped, has Sky TV package, and a dishwasher ideal for a relaxing break. Unfortunately very close to the road which is noisy, however this makes an ideal location to travel from, and the pub is just across the road. Sherwood Forest and The Major Oak is within walking distance. Two car parking spaces outside the house. A lot to recommend this cottage."

1 bedroom accommodation in Rufford, near Newark

10/10 Excellent

"Superb accommodation, everything you could possibly need for a relaxing break. All the rooms are large and very nicely furnished, quality fixtures and fittings throughout. Plus an amazing log burner! Easy access to Rufford Abbey and the Rose Cottage pub/restaurant is close by for meals. Best accommodation we have ever stayed in!"
