We had the most amazing few days staying at Rusty Lodge, it's truly is beautifully kept, stylish and in the most perfect position to watch the sunset. We loved the hot tub, and made the most of the fire pit too. Sarah is a wonderful host. Thank you for having us.

Amazing stop.

We loved every second in this amazing place. Sarah the host was great and the kids loved not having a TV and played on the grass the whole time. It’s super private and we can’t wait to plan our next trip

Relaxing couple of days

The quiet relaxing location. Everything had been thought about. If mobility issues there is a distance to the tent but the owner is extremely helpful

The lodge itself is beautiful, the setting is stunning and the small attention to detail just makes the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable. Would happily return. A hammock in the garden :)

A MUST

Everything. Peaceful setting with no neighbours. Beautiful accomodation. Our host Sarah was lovely, nothing was too much trouble. Sarah was there to greet us and even came to say goodbye. Everything you needed was there. 15 min walk to the delightful pub &#39The Barge' where the setting was on the canal and the food was excellent. Definitely returning next year.

Beautiful stay- looks exactly like the photos, and felt even bigger that expected.

Had a brilliant night sleep in the location, and was perfect for the outdoorsy style trip we were looking for. The shower and bathroom was exceptional for a “glamping” style tent. Had a very complete kitchen too with large fridge.

Immaculate Safari Tent

An immaculate safari tent in a beautiful location and it is obvious that the owner has real pride in the property and has tried to think of everything. We had a wonderful time and would thoroughly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Rusty Lane Safari Tent, and I must say, it was a lovely experience from start to finish! The tent itself is beautifully appointed, providing a unique blend of comfort and adventure. My favourite part was the amazing hot tub – it was a wonderful way to unwind after a day of exploration. The location is fantastic, with an easy and pleasant walk to the local pub, where we enjoyed some delicious meals and a friendly atmosphere. It's the perfect spot for those looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature while having modern conveniences close at hand. One of the highlights of my stay was the abundance of wildlife. We spotted deer roaming the area, and there were plenty of little birds fluttering about, making for a delightful nature-watching experience right from the tent. While our stay was mostly peaceful, I did notice that the tent can be a bit noisy when it's windy.

Amazing stay in a rural location for a group of four girls

The safari lodge has all the little touches to make a stay extra special. It was great to be in a secluded location so we didn’t have to worry about being in the hot tub at night. We were a group of four girls and found the space really well laid out and comfortable. I have already started recommending it to people as it is incredible value for money and a nice, unique stay. More cutlery would great! Having more knives and forks per person would make cooking a lot easier.

This place is a Gem!!!

This was one of the most magical place we've ever stayed in! A real luxurious, restful, calm and peaceful place! Sarah, the host, has great attention to detail, the place has just everything you need!! Water, wood for the fire place, charcoal for the barbecue and fire starter, salt and pepper, pan and pots. You name it, you get it! Sarah was very kind to leave a bottle of wine in the fridge for us and would also ensure that the jacuzzi was good to use on a daily basis. She even emptied the barbecue for us (after we used it). We are very thankful to Sarah for the amazing experience this place gave us! This place is a GEM, it exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be back again! Thank you! -

A great place for a family/ couples getaway into the countryside.

Location is very remote so a great getaway from the rush of normal life. The tent is very substantial and puts the glam in glamping. Great facilities including the hot tub, good shower and bathroom and the log burner is perfect for cosy evening with everything needed provided.
