Beautiful lodge
We stayed as two families and one dog for May Half Term. The lodge was furnished to such a high standard and so well equipped both for us and our pup, everything had been thought of. The beds were so comfortable, the dog provisions and options were great, the hot tub was wonderful and the darts board set up in the garage was an excellent addition that was used constantly by the children! The easy walk down to Scratby beach and the huge expanse of sand was fabulous for some lovely dog walks. The bakery, fish & chip shop and Tastebuds tearoom were all excellent too. Tastebuds was so dog friendly and welcoming. Despite very mixed weather, we had a wonderful relaxing 5 days, the owners were on hand with any queries / questions we had and very helpful. We will certainly be back!

Beautiful bungalow with every comfort possible.
Immaculately presented with some lovely touches like electric reclining sofas, Sky TV, hot tub, comfy beds. Everything you could need is supplied, lovely dog beds and sofa covers. We drove to the beach as have elderly dogs but not far to walk if you have more active dogs. I was surprised that there was always parking available (free) right by the beach. Very peaceful walks and quiet area. Great communication by the owner too. Highly recommended.

Modern and very comfortable
Wonderfully modern and clean bungalow in a quiet residential cul-de-sac. Super touches like Sky TV in all rooms. Fantastic powerful showers. Main bedroom bed very comfy. Hot tub was a very welcome addition. And was maintained twice during our one week stay as standard - not because there was anything wrong. Side access to limit sand and mud coming into the house was very useful. Less than 10 mins walk to bakery, tea room, convenience store and beach. Handy location to explore other parts of the region.

Gorgeous Lodge
Absolutely gorgeous and spacious bungalow with everything (and more!) needed for humans and dogs. Lovely welcome hamper, super comfy bed and great beds for dogs too. In a quiet cul-de-sac and just a 10 minute walk to the beach. Convenience store just across the road and a lovely bakery and fish & chip shop within 5 minute walk. Honestly couldn’t find fault with anything and was very sad to leave.

Scratby 4 night break
Had a great break at Woodpecker Lodge,the property was everything you could ask for. At the end of a close and back garden & hot tub not overlooked. Short 10 mins to walk to the beach. Would recommend highly.
