Guests say
The Haven Lodge receives high praise for its immaculate cleanliness, cosy atmosphere, and secure, dog-friendly garden. Guests appreciate the well-equipped accommodation, thoughtful touches, and proximity to a welcoming pub and scenic walks. The location is ideal for exploring Derbyshire, though some mention road noise due to its position near a main road. Hosts are frequently described as accommodating and attentive. Occasional feedback notes minor comfort or maintenance issues, but overall, guests enjoy a relaxing and memorable stay.
Cleanliness is consistently highlighted, with numerous guests describing the lodge as spotless, immaculate, and very well presented. Only one review mentions finding hair on the floor, but this is an isolated comment among overwhelmingly positive feedback.
The location is praised for its convenience to local attractions, walks, and a nearby pub. Some guests note the benefit of being close to Ashbourne and Derbyshire sights. However, several reviews mention the proximity to a busy main road and associated noise, which slightly lowers the score.

Facilities are generally well regarded, with guests noting the secure garden, well-equipped kitchen, and thoughtful extras. Some minor suggestions for improvement include better shower drainage, more kitchen items, and clearer appliance instructions.
Many guests mention generous welcome packs and thoughtful touches such as Prosecco, bread, and flowers. Hosts are described as accommodating and attentive. Please note that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

Very bright, very clean, very comfortable lodge. Well equipped with a generous welcome pack. Convenient for Ashbourne and has pub and shop very close by. Enclosed lawn and garden for the dog - can walk dog along the river as a footpath runs past the entrance (through the pubs gardens) Only fault was noisy at night or in the garden as a busy road nearby Would recommend!! We had some amazing walks in the peaks and a very enjoyable visit to Kedleston We had a mid week break so not very busy

What a find in Heaven Lodge, the place is immaculate.A very well thought out lodge with everything you could possibly need.The secure garden for our Cavalier Jim was a massive bonus.There was nothing we didn’t adore from the decor, comfort and amazing welcome pack.This was a fact finding mission as we have already booked the lodge for Christmas We are so glad we have and so looking forward to returning.The Royal Oak pub next door is fantastic for food and very dog friendly.Be warned the portions are massive.The lodge is a credit to the owners who are available if you need to speak with them. Thank you for a wonderful stay and see you again in December Ann, Wilf and Woof Jim **
