Seven places are listed in Retford, and they split into two broad types. Compact one-bedroom stays for two make up the larger share. A few bigger lodges with two or three bedrooms sleep six or seven. Nearly all have a hot tub, and some add a log burner, a lake view or dog-friendly rules. The cheapest night found is well below the usual rate, and it belongs to a larger lodge with a lake view, so size alone does not decide the price. Check what each place includes before comparing rates.

Retford is a small market town in Nottinghamshire, and the stays around it lean towards couples and small groups. Most of the places are compact, with four of the seven sleeping two, and almost all of them come with a hot tub. Lake views and fishing show up on a few, which gives some of the stays a waterside feel without needing a trip to the coast.
Prices are mid-range rather than cheap. A night usually costs more than the lowest rates you will see, and the gap between the dearest and the cheapest places is wide, so the budget you set changes what you get. Guest ratings are high, averaging 9.6 out of 10. Only a minority of places take dogs, and a log burner is found in a bit under half of them. If you want a larger group stay, the biggest place sleeps 7, so bigger parties have little to pick from here.
The hot tub and the garden are the most common features, each found at six of the seven places. Log burners and fishing come next, at three places each. Lake views are rarer, at two, and a barbecue appears only once. Places with a lake view are typically cheaper than those with a hot tub or a log burner, which suggests the view matters less to the price than size and location. The single barbecue place is the dearest of the features listed. If a log burner matters for a winter stay, you have a few to choose from, but not many.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot tub | 6 | 86% | £196 |
| Garden | 6 | 86% | £172 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 3 | 43% | £172 |
| Fishing | 3 | 43% | £196 |
| BBQ | 1 | 14% | £237 |
Stays for two are the main group in Retford, with four places, each with one bedroom. Larger lodges for six or seven are fewer, and they have two or three bedrooms. Their nightly rate can be similar to or even lower than a couple's stay, so splitting the cost between a group brings the price per person down a lot. Parties of eight or more will need to look in nearby towns.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 2 | 4 | 1 | £184 | £92 |
Prices move within a narrow band across the months ahead. November and December are the cheapest, and December is slightly the lowest. January and February are a little dearer, then March eases back before April becomes the dearest month listed. Availability also grows towards spring, with more free nights in April than in the winter months. The gap between the cheapest and dearest month is small, so you gain little by waiting for a quieter month. A week costs about the same in winter as outside it.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £184 | 58% |
| December 2026 | £182 | 53% |
| January 2027 | £196 | 62% |
| February 2027 | £196 | 55% |
| March 2027 | £190 | 63% |
| April 2027 | £201 | 70% |
