Base for a local event

The accommodation was perfect for us as we where in the area for a cycle race. The place was very accommodating by having a very early breakfast and supplied a place we could park our bikes indoors (there where other cyclists also staying there as well). Staff are friendly and everything went to plan.

A terrific property set in a quiet location close to Nottingham Road amenities. A perfect place to base to explore the Midlands. Staff were excellent - we were the only two guests staying at the time and were extremely well looked after.

Great stay - very central in Notties area - a few quaint little eateries nearby country vibe. Loxley - was an awesome establishment with really friendly staff who really tried to help.The shower in the room is a little old school - but not a problem at all for a short stay.

Loxley house home away from home

We traveled as a family and my only mistake was to book one room, we should have requested two. The WiFi is not great, so make sure you have data. The staff went above and beyond and even prepared a special dinner for my boys which was amazing. We enjoyed our stay.

Home from home

We were welcomed like royalty not only by the friendly staff but also by the dogs. The gardens are so beautifully manicured and the azaleas amazing. Loved the quirkey "golden swan" on the pool. Just a pity we could only stay one night. Would love to have stayed longer. Rooms beautiful and clean with lovely view over the garden.
