Cambridge Country Club Lodge Retreat

Never stayed there , you cancelled on me 2 weeks after booking . You seem to have short memories

The lodge is stunning, well furnished and very comfy. We had a lovely time and would highly recommend. The kitchen amenities were the best I have had so far when away including a coffee machine - made life so easy. Would be happy to return many times over.

The accommodation was very well equipped. The bedrooms and bathrooms were a good size and the hot tub was a nice treat. We will definitely be booking again.

Brilliant & cosy cottage far enough out the way to be secluded but close enough to local amenities. Amazing hotub & bathroom with underfloor heating throughout tops it off. The owners, Rob & Sharon are wonderful! (And of course Bonnie) Will definitely be coming back again for longer ASAP!!

Beautiful cottage with hot tub and log burner. lovely hosts, peaceful, perfect for our mini break. Hope to return for longer soon!

Really well equipped house, lovely and warm too which was so nice on a rainy December day! Bath was just lovely and a nice big shower! The property is under a flight path - this did not disturb us at all! Dont be put off! A great location for dogs who hate fireworks as it's in the middle of nowhere. Really beautiful, well converted property. Thank Read moreyou! Hide

It was everything we wanted for our weekend away and we loved staying here. We'll definitely be back! Our pups absolutely loved the underfloor heating and had so much fun in the garden. In fact Luna came home with a strained tail and according to the vet it was because she was wagging it so much over the weekend!! Very happy pups and hoomans!

Lovely cottage. Great location for us. Away from the hustle and bustle. Great hot tub . Lovely helpful non intrusive owners. They have it just right!

Absolutely loved how well maintained and equipped this cottage is. Plenty of dog walks right on the doorstep. Very friendly host, they were so efficient and communication was excellent. We enjoyed meeting the animals on the farm and the very curious pig penelope. Perfect escape for us and the doggos. Will definitely be back, brilliant value!! HighlRead morey recommend. Hide

Very kind and considerate owners. Couldnt be better. Enormously helpful and extremely pleasant. Charming half-timbered cottage with a great strong shower, cosy kitchen & living room combination and very comfortable bed. Fantastic parking directly next to the rented cottage. Well heated and very charming, and spotlessly clean. Great walks across theRead more fields to the local village of Thaxted and of course within easy travelling distance of the village, replete with half-timbered houses and windmill. Hide

We had a wonderful time in Goddard Mead. The cottage was very complete and there were walks on the doorstep. The welcome and stay was very warm. The owners are lovely people.

The owners Rob & Sharon, have gone to a great deal of work to sympathetically convert this historic building & we couldn't have had a warmer greeting from them both & of course Bonnie. Goddard's Mead has everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay.

Such a lovely place to stay in a really beautiful, private location. The owners were really friendly and helpful, nearby if needed but without breaking that sense of privacy. The hot tub was perfect after a day of cycling! One thing to be aware of, the cottage is right under Stansted's flight path, and so there's a lot of aircraft noise. It only toRead moreok us a couple of hours to get used to it and it didn't spoil our holiday at all, but something to be aware of if you're sensitive to noise. Hide

The lovely cottage is situated on a working farm, but is very private. The owners, Robert and Sharon, are delightful. The cottage is very spacious with good equipment in the kitchen and the bathroom. The bed is really comfortable. The garden is secluded; dog proof and with good furniture. There are numerous walks around. Thaxted has good restaurantRead mores. We liked The Star and The Maypole. The Swan and the Indian are not bad either. We thoroughly recommend this place. Hide

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Sharon and Robert were great hosts and made us feel very welcome. The accommodation had everything we needed and was clean, comfortable and secure for our dog Archie. The location was ideal too with plenty of walks to find and Thaxted and surrounding villages are lovely places to visit.

Lovely accommodation, very peaceful and relaxing and great for dogs as the garden is fully inclosed

Had such a lovely, relaxing break. Cottage was immaculate, equipped with everything you need and some lovely added extras too. Couldnt recommended more

Had a lovely weekend away staying here. Would love to come back later on in the year.

Lovely friendly owners. Couldnt do enough when the power went down due to the storm. Very well equipped and clean. Very warm cottage. Our dog enjoyed the enclosed outside space and us the hot tub!

Perfect venue for a quiet break away. Sharon and Robert have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable and comfortable. Although this was our second visit it definitely will not be our last.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely quiet location. Ideal to escape and relax. Hot tub was amazing and the cottage was immaculate with everything you needed. Lots of walks close by and within the village reach. Had such a wonderful time. Couldnt recommend enough.

Wonderful weekend stay, wed highly recommend this property. Everything we needed for a lovely quiet anniversary break.

Lovely stay here. Clean, all the equipment you need and the hot tub was very enjoyable!

Beautiful and peaceful place, Jacuzzi was amazing definitely be coming back.

The place was lovely and with the dogs was great just walk around all the fields

Stanning cottage with friendly owners and if course the jacuzzi. We had a great time.

A beautiful holiday home set in a lovely rural location. The slated courtyard was perfect and the hot-tub added to the luxury of the property. Great for country walks.

Fantastic clean place, nice and quiet, hosts are lovely and helpful, great place for couples, the hot tub is amazing, nice enclosed garden for pets.

Best lodge we have stopped in the fridge and cooker and kitchen are topped notch In fact all the facilities are 5 star. The lodge overlooks the 10th fairway and green and it's quite amusing seeing how many golfers end up in the trees Would highly recommend

We absolutely loved our time here, the lodge is immaculate and stunning. The hot tub was amazing. Very well equipped kitchen and a coffee machine. We really couldn’t fault anything about the lodge at all, it’s beautiful. The only two things we would like to mention is the lodge is not actually owned by Cambridge Country Club and the staff there were not very helpful at all, it felt very awkward like we had gone to the wrong place, and like they were having to go out of their way just to get our key. They did not mention anything to do with the restaurant, pool or anything they offered which I thought was a missed opportunity for them. The other thing which would not put us off going again but might do if you had a young family, was on the first three nights we had very noisy people in the lodge next to us, some nights playing music loud until 4am, again no fault of the owners of the lodge but just to make you aware. You do need to travel for days out but not very far. The owners of the lodge should be incredibly proud, they have got Trinity Lodge just perfect.

Very accommodating staff.

Fabulous accommodation. Very relaxing however outside of the facilities on site there is little to do in the surrounding area. We did however travel into Cambridge for a sightseeing and shopping day!. The Country Club is beautifully decorated, has a good gym and swimming pool and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately we did not get to play golf due to the weather (Storm Eunice).

We had a great weekend and already booked the lodge again for next year, 10/10 from us!

Loved it here so so much. Can’t wait to go back. The Country Club was all new and the facilities were brilliant.

The facilities are amazing and the venue is beautiful. The staff were really welcoming and helpful. Great location to access to Cambridge for the day too.

We very much enjoyed our weekend away, there are a few areas that require improvement, but I will put this down to the lodges being fairly new. When we arrived, we checked in at the Country Club and were handed the keys which were labelled lodge 4, however there are no numbers visible on the lodges so it wasn't clear which lodge was ours. When we finally located the correct one, only one of the keys worked in opening the lodge. It was advertised as having bunk beds, but we found there to be only 2 singles, which was actually a positive for us. However some beds were missing bedding and the hot tub was not only emptied but in a serious need of clean. Once we alerted the staff to this they brought round the bedding and started cleaning the hot-tub and refilling. We arrived at around 4 on Friday and couldn't use the hottub until Saturday afternoon as it heats up at around 1-2 degrees an hour. Being there for 3 nights this wasn't a problem but had it been shorter it would have been more frustrating. The lodge itself was fantastic, it was equipped with everything we needed. The Bluetooth sound system was excellent, and it was decorated nicely throughout. The kitchen came equipped with everything and more including oven, grill, hob, double fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee machine, kettle, toaster and almost every utensil you could think of. We were greatful that there was also plenty of cleaning products so we could clean up after ourselves as we needed to. Beds were very comfy and both bathrooms were just brilliant. Having an iron and ironboard was a nice surprise and really helped. There was only a small waste bin provided and no indication of where we could take our rubbish. There was quite a lot after 3 days and would have been helpful if there was somewhere on site we could have taken it. When we have stopped in these type of lodges before, there is often a welcome pack/guest information pack of some sort that gives you all the information you need about using certain things in the lodge (TV, hottub, Bluetooth sound system, heating/boiler etc.,) as well as listing what you could do on site and in the local area, there was neither no health and safety signs up in terms of hazards including the decking surrounding the hot tub which could become slippery. Whilst we didn't need these as we used our common sense, I suspect they may be required at some stage. Overall it was a pleasant stay and we would definitely visit again and recommend to freinds and family, there are certainly still room for improvements and I suspect these will be refined over time as they become more popular.
