About this property
Nestled along the shoreline of the main fishing lake at Bulworthy Forest Lodges, The Hideaway lives up to its name, offering a peaceful woodland retreat where nature takes centre stage. Surrounded by trees and thoughtfully positioned to provide privacy from neighbouring lodges, it is a place to slow down, switch off and enjoy the calming rhythm of lakeside life. Sleeping up to four guests across one double bedroom and one twin bedroom, this charming timber lodge is ideal for couples, small families or friends seeking a relaxing North Devon escape. The surrounding area offers plenty to explore, from the historic market town of Bideford on the River Torridge, with its independent shops, cafés and traditional pannier market, to the town's famous Long Bridge dating back to 1268, with its distinctive 24 arches. North Devon's coastline is within easy reach, offering beautiful sandy beaches, scenic coastal walks and some of the region's best surfing spots, while Exmoor National Park provides excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and wildlife watching.
An open-plan living space creates a comfortable setting for relaxing countryside stays, with double glazing and central heating ensuring year-round comfort. The well-equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, while Wi-Fi is available throughout the estate and electricity is included. The accommodation features one double bedroom and one twin bedroom, both prepared with bed linen, duvets and towels, with beds made up ready for arrival. The bathroom is fitted with a bath, shower over the bath and WC, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay. Well-spaced lodges throughout the estate enhance the peaceful sense of seclusion, while the quiet lakeside setting and abundant wildlife create a relaxing atmosphere. Free on-site carp and coarse fishing is available for guests bringing their own equipment, and up to two dogs are welcome. A travel cot can be provided on request, and the lodge is non-smoking throughout.
The enclosed gated veranda overlooks the lake, offering a wonderful vantage point for observing the natural world. During the breeding season, blue tits often nest opposite the lodge, while a variety of visiting water birds can be seen throughout the year. An electric BBQ provides the opportunity for outdoor dining while taking in the lake and woodland views. A washing machine is housed in an adjacent shed, and a shared metered tumble dryer is available on site. Guests can enjoy woodland walks throughout the estate as well as shared access to the carp and coarse fishing lake. One allocated woodland parking space is provided, completing this peaceful lakeside base for up to four guests and two dogs.
