Robin's Rest Reviews

Lovely warm and clean accommodation. Great hosts. Lovely place to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Andrew
Honestly i can't fault this property at all! Clean,tidy,comfortable and fully equipped,this is one of our favourite properties that we've every stayed in. The best welcome pack we've ever had,a lovely hot tub which i thought might have been a bit of a novelty but i went in it at least once a day and goats right at the bottom of the garden for constant amusement. A brilliant property, we will definitely return.
Robin's rest beautiful accommodation with lots of welcome added touches. Peaceful, but close enough to places to visit if you want to venture out. Phil and Clare the hosts are very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.
Penelope
Lovely property immaculately clean, spacious, warm and cosy. The welcome gifts were a thoughtful touch on arrival. Private patio and Hot Tub was very relaxing. Everything you need was provided and more, with the addition of ginger biscuits to feed the goats. We had a lovely relaxing weekend and would definitely stay there again. Thank you.
We wanted a few days away to just relax and unwind and Robins Rest was absolutely perfect. A wonderful place, spotlessly clean, very quite and we really enjoyed our time there, highly recommend if you want some peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of daily life
Joanne
This place is stunning! It's clean, cosy, comfortable, it has everything you need, it is by far the nicest place I have stayed. The welcome pack was delightful, fresh eggs as well, there is even have goats outside your back garden! The owner leaves ginger nuts for you to give them! We purchased some from the local shop too! They are so adorable, definitely going again
Robins rest is a beautiful little treasure hidden away in peaceful surroundings. Clean and well maintained property, great hosts and added extra touches to make your stay special.
Our favourite place to chill . .perfectly equipped and for us a home from home .owners are lovely .
You will not find better than Robin's Rest. So much thought has been put into it and it has everything you could need. The bed is super comfortable, the kitchen very well equipped and the Hot Tub is spotlessly clean! We're already looking at when we can make our second visit.
The accommodation was fantastic, extremely clean and completed to a high specification. The bed was comfortable and was lovely to have extra towels for the hot tub. The complementary food items were appreciated, especially the ginger nuts to feed the goats! During our stay it was warm weather, so having access to a fan would be useful as the bedroom particularly can get very warm, even with the windows open. We will definately be recommending this place to family and friends. We had a lovely, restful stay.
Joanne
What an amazing place to stay. The attention to detail and quality of the facilities are second to none. We had an absolutely amazing stay and would definitely recommend this property. The welcome treats were a special touch and getting to feed the goats and see them each morning was an added bonus. Just perfect!
Perfect! Everything had been thought about. Facilities were great. Everything was spotless. The hot tub on the patio was a fantastic bonus.
Robert
Absolutely fantastic property will definitely return. The property is spotless. The owners are so friendly and very helpful and chatty cant say enough about the property. It really is beautiful. You will not be disappointed.
Cottage was beautiful, very clean & well equipped. It was a shame the pump wasnt working on the hot tub owner did inform us about it as soon as we arrived. New pump was on order but wouldnt arrive for our stay. Only thing the cottage could do with would be a fan to use in the bedroom Owners very friendly
Had a lovely week at Robins Rest. Peaceful and relaxing only issue we had was the jets on the hot tub had become faulty sometime between Sunday evening and Monday when the owner came to let us know the hot tub was not working and he had reported it. Unfortunately this had not been rectified before we left on the Thursday
Always a lovely welcome and from the goats ! ! We make the most of the hot tub and the peace and quiet .Already looking forward to our next visit. A beautiful cottage we would recommend without hesitation.
Richard
A really nice place to stay comfortable, wellfurnished, quiet. One of the best cottages we have ever used.
Such a lovely place to stay. Will definitely be coming back here.
This place is a little gem Cannot rate it high enough. Anybody that has booked up for this place. Will definitely not be dissatisfied.
Very spacious quality accommodation
Another relaxing week in a beautiful property. Keep up the good work.
We have recommended Robin's rest to all of our friends and family, and intend to book again very soon! We cannot wait to come and stay again and visit the goats. We couldn't pick out a single fault with the entire property, it is clearly loved and looked after to a very high standard. We have stayed in converted barns cottages before, but none of them were as nice as here. The welcome hamper and other special touches were just a huge bonus on top of an already perfect stay. We cannot wait to come back and see the goats again! Thank you for having us
Wow what luvly property would recommend for sure such a relaxing break from hustle and bustle of life great couple too
Clean accommodation, good facilities and friendly hosts. Would highly recommend
Jennifer
I booked the Robins Rest for my husbands 40th birthday as Id also booked a spa day at Hoar Cross Hall, so was around a 40min drive from there. We both absolutely loved our stay here, from first arriving and walking through the door, the accommodation was beautiful, very clean and everything maintained to a high standard. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise and the best welcome pack weve received, compared to other places we have stayed. A lovely touch with the hens eggs and the Staffordshire oat cakes too. We especially loved having the goats out the back of our property which they love ginger biscuits, also left in the welcome pack. Such a unique extra to have & we loved giving Dotty & Dora and the 3 babies their gingernuts each morning. The sofa was very comfortable when relaxing and enjoying a series on tv as was the bed too. The wet room was a welcome feature, which made it easy to change when using the hot tub and also for afterwards too. The underfloor heating was another lovely surprise too. We really enjoyed our stay, it had snowed when we arrived and an extra flurry when we were staying, which was really nice when enjoying the hot tub, relaxing and listening to the goats and birds in nature. We will definitely come back again when we are back up that way. I would highly recommend to anyone, it really is such a beautiful place.
Melanie
We had a wonderful stay ,the property was 10 out of 10, hot tub was so warm and sat out under the stars and surrounded by snow. welcome pack was the best thank you very much hope to return . The thing which we missed was a cafetiere but every thing else was thought of.
Samantha
We loved everything about this property including the goats! ! Robins Rest delivered on every level modern but extremely cosy, spotlessly clean and it was superbly equipped with everything we could want! The quiet location was just what we needed and the hot tub was well used during our stay! The little extras left by our hosts were very much appreciated and well definitely be back to enjoy this amazing escape!
Amazing staycation, beautifully done. Small suggestion is to add instructions on how to use the thermostat
Enjoyed a relaxing second visit and will be back for a third visit. Escape from a very busy work life, beautiful surroundings & views.
Would definitely stay here again, very clean and peaceful
Beautiful setting to rest and relax. Amazing hosts and we will definitely be coming back soon.
Bettina

Property was lovely! Little treats and bits in the house were really appreciated.
We have been to this property numerous times and is always maintained to a high standard. Warm friendly hosts and guaranteed a peaceful stay
Maxine
The cottage was absolutely perfect, a lovely open kitchen space with all equipment needed, a comfy bed and perfect bathroomwet room. The hot tub was fabulous and clean and the operation was really simple. The goats were fantastic, we were so lucky to be there to see the babies being born! Once in a lifetime moment! The owners are lovely and left us a welcome pack with loads of food including fresh eggs. It's so quiet around the place, perfect for relaxing, you can walk to the village and a 20 min drive takes you to Trentham with loads to do there. It was a perfect week for us.
We both said that we had struck gold with Robins Rest! It was a fairly late booking and I am amazed that such a fantastic place has any vacancies. Very well equipped with everything we needed and the welcome pack was a lovely touchespecially the freshly laid eggs
This barn conversion with hot tub was the best one we have stayed in by far. The quiet location was perfect for what we wanted. Hot tub was perfect. The welcome package was unexpected but a lovely touch. Feeding Dotty and Dora every morning was lovely. We would definitely stay here again. The conversion itself was done exceptionally with everything you needed.
Absolutely stunning and spotlessly clean, had to leave early as my son took ill ... Absolutely stunning and spotlessly clean, had to leave early as my son took ill but we had a few drinks and a laze in the hot tub, owner left out some fresh laid eggs etc, very nice touch we have a great time
We just had an amazing week at 'Robins Rest'. It's beautifully finished to a very high standard. The goats 'Dotty and Dora' were adorable and loved their ginger nuts! The hot tub was amazing after a long day of cycling and the welcome pack was a very welcome addition. Thank you! Would highly recommend and hope to be back soon.
