Great value for money
Pros:

The location within Hucknall is good and the lodge has plenty of parking spaces outside, the bowman pub serves good food and drinks and the staff at the lodge and pub are really friendly and helpful. The rooms have everything you need and the one I stayed in was spacious. Can’t complain for the price I paid, the value for money was good.

A lovely hotel with an even nicer pub/restaurant conveniently located next door
Pros:

The pub next door to the hotel is a huge bonus as the food and drinks are good quality. The room is spacious and comfortable and the shower was very powerful. Lots of towels to use as well

Cons:

A couple of finishes are starting to look a little tired but only in very small areas. This is a very good place to stay.

Good accommodation conveniently positioned…
Pros:

Excellent WiFi, good facilities free parking pub not overpriced and food to a good standard

Cons:

Breakfast no idea if they serve it, it wasn’t sold to me as they did but probably wouldn’t have taken it but worthy noting. Also didn’t like the multiple rat boxes in the court yard fortunately didn’t see any.

Great stay for 1 night to attend nearby family wedding.. No surprises had everyting we needed
Pros:

We stayed 1 night prior to attending a family wedding close by. The night we arrived we visited a local pub quiz nearby. The rooms had everything we needed, They were clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly. Thisis a Greene King Pub so thre is a bar and food available and breakfast was plentiful served in the bar/restuarant. Met everything we needed and made for a relaxing time getting ready to attend the event. Perfect for our needs

Cons:

Can't think of anything that negatively impacted on our stay. This was a one night stay and evrything we expected and needed was catered for.
