The Fern at BrackenXcapes

Very nice chalet, supreme hot tub, friendly hosts. We got engaged here three years ago and stayed this time for our wedding. Everything was perfect! Thanks Nigel and Laura!

Couldn't have been better, literally everything was perfect.

Nigel was always available if we had any questions, the location was so peaceful and the house is spacious and comfortable. Really enjoyed our stay.

Nothing

It was in a peaceful setting, a short walk from the village itself. Perfect for some r&r

The only issue we had was the hot tub wasn’t fully functioning, we have received a refund for that part of our stay and Nigel was really helpful!

Hot tub

6 foot fence around small garden. Very enclosed.

The treasure hunt was a big hit with the kids!

Location was a little tricky with railway crossing but manageable.

The Fern was perfect for our annual trip to a festival at Newark Showground, it’s a lovely property ideal for a group of up to 6 to stay close to events locally. The hosts are very welcoming and provided us with all the information we needed prior to our visit and also checked in with us during our stay. Already booked again for next year. Many thanks

April 2025- Beautiful place, very clean and everything you need for your stay. Lovely touches like Easter card to us and themed ornaments. Very comfy beds, which makes a whole lot of difference when away. Had a treasure box as my son called it but had to crack the codes which my son absolutely loved & managed first two locks on his own but the last one was tricky as it was chess related and we don't know anything about chess so Nigel (owner)helped us out with few clues but we still couldn't do it 🤣 in the end we was given the code but then played deal or no deal with our 12 year old he chose to have the code to access the box and there was an Easter egg in there! very nice touch. We have some how misplaced an extendable magnet stick that goes with one of the clues for the treasure box. It has to be somewhere! So if anyone finds it let Nigel know. I would love to know where it turns up, we do feel bad though! Property Safe for children and dogs as it's enclosed. Hot tub was lush! Had bit trouble cutting out but we sussed it out in the end. Nigel happy to help with anything the owners live next door so literally on hand to sort anything out if you need 😊Ideal location for us as we was visiting family and we have a new grandson, our daughter lives 10 minutes away and other family members 20 minutes away so perfect for us. Would highly recommend, we would definitely come back 😀 if they will have us! 🙈 Liz & Lee 🐰
