weâve had such a wonderful 5 day break. We were a group of 5 including our 11 year old and our two Jack Russellâs. Although the entrance to the site was on a main road, once behind the gates it was a little dream of its own. The whole place was perfect, beautifully decorated to an extremely high standard with top quality bedding, lighting and facilities. It was spotlessly clean and so so well equipped, easily the best accommodation of this nature weâve ever hired! We felt the whole place and lake was excellently maintained inside and out and felt really secure and secluded which was exactly what we were hoping for, especially with having the dogs free to roam outside. The lodge itself is just perfect, great communal kitchen/dining space with plenty of different areas to suit the whole party. The bedrooms were great, beds incredibly comfortable, all with high quality linen and pillows, and individual room climate control allowed for total flexibility. Bathrooms finished to an exceptional standard, high tech without any confusion, great showers and lighting. Excellent to have a washing machine, which we used a couple of times (due to the muddy conditions and fishing!), all kitchen appliances amazing, and even an air-fryer! The owners of this place have done an absolutely top class job making sure there is literally everything you could ever need in terms of crockery, kitchen tools and home comforts. Whilst my husband, son and mother in law spent much of the days exploring the local beaches, towns and shops, My brother and I fished the lake from dawn until dusk (in ALL the weathers - and we had everything!) and we both said weâd not had such great fishing for nearly 20years!! The fish are stunning, all in such perfect condition, we didnât find the 35lbâers but we did have over 500lbs worth or common and mirror carp in total over 4days! Catch after catch, all 6-15lbs which was great fun. The luxury of having the lake to ourselves was absolutely valued, it was just perfect to have all the home comforts and such excellent fishing! We felt spoilt!! We ate out at a couple of the local pubs, both of which were only a few mins drive as well as there being a great Chinese, a few local shops and some fish and chip shops within a mile or so from the lodge. All in all, this was an outstanding place, worth every penny and if we could give 100stars, we would. We will DEFINITELY be back!

It has to be one of the most beautiful locations and places I have been to. As soon as you arrive is simply has a magical feel to it. The lake and lodge are both breathtaking and Sharon is the epitome of first class experience. The interior decor in the lodge is simply beautiful. I really cannot recommend enough. Lots of beautiful carp too in the lake and such a safe environment for you to stay in, coupled with your furry friends. Our 4 month year old puppy absolutely loved it! There are not many places I have have cried when leaving - but this was one of them! Cannot wait to go back to our beautiful haven and thank you Sharon for everything - you are amazing x

They have done a great job stying and choosing there furniture. We are already missing the view of the lake as soon as you wake. I was also very impressed with the security especially having a young family and a dog. Itâs a must visit especially at that price. Well done all!!!!
