As soon as we walked in to Woodpecker Lodge we knew we would have a great holiday - immaculately clean, with some Christmas decorations, it was immediately inviting. We explored many of the local beaches and towns, loved the local bakery and the Smokehouse. For the dogs, we couldn’t have asked for more with a large assortment of crates, throws on the sofas and spare towels, not to mention a fabulous welcome hamper! There were even some steps to help my old boy up and down from the sofa. Evenings in the hot tub, the added bonus, meant we had a great Christmas break! Definitely recommend.

Really beautiful bungalow we had a comfortable stay and everything we needed, hot tub was lovely.
However we did not like Scratby at all, very disappointing and not at all our cup of tea, think we have been too spoilt in the past staying at lovely Winterton on sea just up the road, but Scratby is worlds apart and we would definitely not choose to go there again unfortunately.
Can’t fault Easton Rushton cottages though, always great to deal with and the best at being dog friendly!
Was a bit worried about keeping the noise of our dogs down as reactive dog next door to this bungalow too which was slightly off putting

What a find… from initial booking a wealth of informative, helpful information was provided both to get the most out of our stay at Woodpecker lodge and nearby places to visit. The ‘lodge’ (bungalow) was clean and well equipped and very dog friendly with a secure garden. Which allowed for a restful stay without being on edge about where our dog was or what he was up to. The fabulous hot tub was very welcome after visiting the beach with the dog. About 15-20 minute walk to Scratby beach with the fabulous bakers enroute. Several dog friendly cafes nearby, well within easy walking distance, especially Angelo’s at California, probably the most dog friendly cafe we have ever visited. All in all made for a very enjoyable relaxing holiday. Would definitely recommend and would have no hesitation in booking again.

We loved our stay at Woodpecker Lodge. The accommodation was fantastic with everything we could possibly want and need. Our dog was certainly spoiled with the variety of treats, toys and beds to use and he loved playing in the garden before heading off to the amazing nearby beaches.. The nearby building work did not disturb as when we were in the garden as luckily they were not working nearby whilst we stayed. Overall a fantastic stay and we were really impressed. I’m sure we will be back!
