Guests say
Sedge Lodge receives high praise for its peaceful location, spacious and comfortable interiors, and excellent cleanliness. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, relaxing hot tub, and beautiful gardens, making it ideal for families, couples, and dog owners. The welcome packs are a thoughtful touch, though not guaranteed. Some minor maintenance issues and accessibility challenges are noted, but these do not detract from the overwhelmingly positive experience. The property is well-suited for those seeking a tranquil retreat with easy access to Ely and surrounding attractions.
Cleanliness is consistently highlighted, with many guests describing the lodge as spotlessly clean and well looked after. Only one review mentions an issue with dog hair on furniture, but this is an exception among otherwise glowing feedback.
The location is praised for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and proximity to Ely and other attractions. Some guests note the remote setting and uneven fenland roads, but most find the peaceful surroundings a major positive.
Guests frequently mention comfortable beds, spacious living areas, and effective heating and fans. A few reviews mention minor issues with mattresses, pillows, and draughts, but overall comfort is rated highly.
Facilities such as the hot tub, well-equipped kitchen, and large gardens are highly valued. Some guests report maintenance issues with the oven and furniture, and note that the spa is no longer operating, but these are outweighed by positive comments.
Many guests appreciate the welcome packs including essentials like milk, bread, butter, wine, and biscuits. While these gifts are frequently mentioned, it should be noted that such gestures are not guaranteed for every stay.

History buffs will also enjoy a visit to the Hanseatic Old Quarter of Kings Lynn, The Royal Sandringham Estate or the Imperial War Museum, Duxford, which offers up an impressive collection detailing the history of aviation, including several aircraft. In fact, this may well be your only chance now to say that you’ve been on Concorde!
For a change of pace and some refreshing sea air, you can be in Hunstanton in less than an hour. Here you will find a wide sandy beach that seems to go on forever, a small funfair, a Sealife Centre, Norfolk Lavender and lots of seaside shops and cafes. Closer to home lies the bustling city of Ely with its impressive cathedral, nicknamed ‘The ship of the Fens’ because of the way it rises up on the horizon. Here you will find a fascinating stained glass museum, which offers a rare insight to this beautiful art form.
Bustling Newmarket is close by and offers a famous racecourse which often hosts musical entertainment evenings. For breathtaking countryside, visit Thetford Forest with its numerous walks and cycle routes, and its Go Ape centre, featuring tree walks, zip wires and Tarzan swings. And, after all your adventures, you can head back to Wood Fen Lodges, unwind, relax (perhaps in the hot tub?) and dream of places yet to see. Just perfect! Shop 1 mile, pub and restaurant 2 miles.

We had a lovely comfortable stay at Sedge Lodge everything you could want. Just one problem the oven needs replacing the oven nob only goes to high so had to put everything on the bottom but then the timings where out. Apart from that everything else was spot on . Spotlessly clean welcome pack very welcome.Will definitely return next year.
