Robin's Rest Reviews

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
Would definitely stay here again, very clean and peaceful
Enjoyed a relaxing second visit and will be back for a third visit. Escape from a very busy work life, beautiful surroundings & views.
Beautiful setting to rest and relax. Amazing hosts and we will definitely be coming back soon.

This was my 7th stay at RR. The Kids baby goats are so cute. They love ginger biscuits. I live 5 miles away. But stay local to support local businesses. Hot tub is awesome. Safe parking. Is a must. Wifi excellent Kitchen well equipped I'm a foodie and like cooking. Already booking the next visit. Xxx Tina See you all soon
Another excellent stay already looking forward to next time
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.
Spotless Cottage, with very thought out extras. Dotty and Dolly were wonderful neighbours.
Beautiful property. .our third visit and already booked another.perfect place to chill and relax.the hot tub is a bonus as are the goats that greet you each morning.nothing to do with the ginger biscuits ! Home from home
Iolanda
We had a wonderful relaxing stay at Robins rest. It really is an idillic retreat with lots of lovely home comforts. We loved our welcome box, and biscuits for the goats who eagerly met us in the morning. Thank you to Claire and Phil for all of the thought that has gone in to providing such a lovely place to stay. Hope to be back again.
Graham
This is an amazing property. The attention to detail is first class and it is well maintained. Everything that you could want is there and the Welcome Pack is great. The ginger biscuits for the goats are a nice touch rattle the tin when you go out on the back and they will come running. We loved finishing off the day in the hot tub. We had a lovely, restful much needed break.
Wonderful cosy cottage with very friendly hosts. Had everything we needed for our trip plus more. Loved the welcome pack and the goats! Hoping to come back again
Maggie

Very comfortable stay at Robin's Rest. Beautifully clean even the outside area was well cared for. Friendly, discreet and helpful owners. Would not hesitate to recommend to friends and family.
Stayed at this property numerous times. Hosts are friendly and welcoming. Cottage is clean, comfortable and very relaxing. Added touches to stay regarding welcome food package are a bonus. Local facilities only a few minutes away. Hottub is clean and well maintained. Highly recommend.
Rachael
We had such a wonderful time, thank you. I was surprised it had been open for a year with how well it's been maintained, it's a beautiful place to stay and the goats just brightened up our morning every day.
What a great early 2024 break. Very thoughtful welcome items provided including Prosecco, crisps, chocs, milk, cheese plus extra towels for hot tub. Cottage location was good with easy access to Trentham Gardens which is well worth a visit. The cottage really was lovely and nice and warm with under floor heating nice shower in wet room Just a couple of thoughts to put the cherry on the top not criticisms at all and relatively minor as it was raining during our stay it would be good to have a plastic box of some sort near hot tub to pop phones in etc. Also more drying facilities for hot tub towels and costumes we used it a lot lol
Raymond
Just needs a clothes rail to be perfect. The cleanliness and general finish show the owners love their work. Well done to all the team there.
Thomas
Fantastic place, immaculately clean with a wonderful welcome hamper and fresh eggs! Underfloor heating throughout kept us nice and toasty, as did the spotless hot tub. Will be recommending to friends and family and will certainly be back in the future!
The cottage was fantastic, in pristine condition, tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard, everything and more was provided. The welcome hamper was very much appreciated, all in all it made for an outstanding weekend break for my partner and I. would highly recommend this cottage to friends and family.
Beautiful and peaceful
Beautiful property. Our second stay and already looking forward to our next one.So relaxing and peaceful.touches such as the welcome treats and immaculate hot tub are an added bonus.
