I do tend to write reviews, both good and bad. Check out my other reviews. I try hard to be fair. I rarely use superlatives because superlatives are rarely deserved. Not in this case. This place is superb. We booked into the Garden Suite which itself was exceptional for the price. However, unexpectedly, the larger suite was available and Peter the perfect host suggested we have a look. Wow! A little more expensive than the Garden Suite but frankly Peter could have charged twice that differential and I would still have taken the larger suite. Over two floors. Ground floor has a dinning table exclusive to the suite and where breakfast is served. There was also a baby Grand Piano to add to the palatial feel. Upstairs is huge. Very tastefully decorated in an Asian style with tasteful and interesting fixtures and fittings. It really 'worked'. There was a large and comfortable lounge area, a very comfortable and large double bed with tiger tripe bed set that managed to look classy rather than tacky. The view from the bed through some 'designer' Asian theme trees framing what seemed an endless English countryside at its best view accross a gold course. An ample and spotlessly clean bathroom in the middle and another bed and lounge area, a little smaller but very much complimentary and in sympathy with the overall look and feel. Another small balcony looking onto the front garden area, some private parking exclusive to The Lodge and then accross the road to a school and beyond. I stood on that balcony for over fifteen minutes at around 9:30pm and not one car passed by. It was so quiet. We had an adequate evening meal at the pub five minutes down the road. We were able to specify specific breakfast requirements by texting Peter. The breakfast was fresh cooked and served and as good as any breakfast I have had anywhere. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Thanks Peter! Steve.

the pub food was ok but only ok in my opinion. other than that, nothing.

My stay with Peter was a last minute chance booking. But honestly the best little B and B I’ve ever had the pleasure to stay in. To be greeted at the gate by a happy helpful person after a 4 hour drive and stress of a booking mix up at my planned hotel followed by a panicked look for somewhere to sleep. Was just stress shedding, after hearing what had happened Peter offered to cook me dinner on the spot to save me hunting for a restaurant. Then to find the room to be at perfect as it is the stress of a really bad day was melted away.

Nothing

Loved everything about my stay. The setting is a little haven in an already beautiful village. Peter is an excellent host and was there to greet me on arrival and helped me to the room with my bags. The suite was more than I would ever expect from a BandB, really was luxury with every comfort on hand. I did not want to leave and will be back the first chance I get.

Perfect stay with absolutely nothing to critique.

We had a fantastic stay, Peter the host was very welcoming and went above and beyond and helped to book a taxi for us to travel to town for dinner. Parking was safe and off-street and the accommodation is in a lovely quiet area. We had gorgeous views of (what I presume is) the golf course next door from the top floor of our accommodation. Spotlessly clean, and yummy breakfast. Lots of extra touches in the room like fresh flowers which we appreciated.

Nothing

Fantastic boutique hotel as just two suites,but very comfortable, homely and all facilities. Can sleep 3 in one suite and I think 5 in other, so good combination. Owner, Peter, has built the perfect lodge and was an excellent and attentive host, I’ve already booked place out for next visit to Nottingham in February.

Nothing to dislike.

The entire experience surpassed all my expectations - Peter is an exceptional owner/host and greeted us warmly on arrival and confirmed we had been upgraded (no extra charge) to the Bollinger suite. Additionally we were then asked if we would like a complimentary glass of wine and that some sherry was also available in the room. The room itself was incredible - a downstairs dining area and upstairs two double beds and two singles and a huge lounge area. The entire suite was immaculate and Peter also recommended a local pub for dinner (The Ruddington Arms). The food and service were excellent and coupled with this Peter has negotiated a 10% discount for guests at The Lodge. We were asked what we wanted for breakfast (anything we want) and Peter served us an extremely tasty full english the next day - my daughter is gluten free and he went out the night before and purchased gluten free bread - This review only scratches the surface of how good Peter and his property is and we will definitely look to stay here again if we are in Nottingham - one not to be missed!

Nothing - the entire experience was faultless

Fantastic location right near the centre of Ruddington so easy to walk into the centre. This is quite a unique B&B providing luxurious accommodation in the heart of this Nottinghamshire village. Peter your host is quite the raconteur having spent a career in the local hospitality and entertainment sectors and will strive to ensure you stay is as enjoyable as possible.

Can't really say there was anything we didn't like.

Peter our host is incredibly polite, friendly and competent. The rooms are understated in the description, they are wonderful. The breakfast cooked and serviced by Peter himself. Great guy.

I wish it was nearer to Donington Park. No other dislikes or complaints. Warm and friendly place to stay.

Everything was great. Peter an amazing person to meet with. I travel always and it was the first time to have such an amazing place to stay and great time for us to spend with Peter. whenever I come back to the Nottingham I will definitely stay at the Lodge. highly recommended!!!!!

Not to have more days to spend there ;)

This was a superbly presented venue, truly luxurious. The owner went out of his way to be helpful, accommodating an earlier than scheduled check-in, providing bespoke breakfast, booking local dinner arrangements for us. I would definitely go back here again.
