Loved the Lake

We had a tremendous family weekend, thoroughly enjoying all the water activities on the lake and tennis. It worked well for our mix of ages and was enjoyed by all. It was a great chance for the grandchildren to learn/practice new skills and the adults enjoyed it too. The warm weather helped!

Kids loved the boats

Well equipped house with comfy beds. The land around the house and the views of the lake are what make it special. The kids enjoyed exploring the woods nearby and rowing on the lake in the boats. Lots of wildlife around and a fab pub in West Dipping within walking distance though the fields (although I wouldn’t try the walk at night!)

Lovely Lakeside Location

The property is spacious and clearly a well loved family vacation home, which has been extended and up-dated but retains period features. There are two bedrooms upstairs with en-suite facilities and two ground floor bedrooms which share a bathroom and a separate lavatory with wash-hand basin etc. Lakeside Lodge is well equipped with all that guests could need and has a terrace with out-side dining seating with a charming view of the lake,

Lovely family getaway set in beautiful grounds

We had a wonderful stay at Lake lodge with 3 generations of family members. There was so much to do. The house was very clean and had everything you needed. The tennis court was put to very good use and the lake and grounds were amazing to explore and reconnect with nature. Thank you Maggie and Dan for making is feel so welcome and for being great hosts. We could not have asked for anything more to make out family break special.

Perfection

I cannot praise Lake Lodge highly enough! The house is so comfortable, spacious but cosy, and very well-equipped. Maggie the host could not have been more helpful in providing everything we needed and sending us lots of useful information in advance. The boating, sports facilities and wildlife watching were perfect for our family group. We can’t wait to return!

Swallows and Amazons home from home

Lake Lodge was perfect for our 60th birthday reunion. It was so well equipped, from the kitchen to the outdoor spaces. We were blessed with a wonderful warm weekend and so we sat out on the terrace most of the time with the view of the lake in the back ground. We swam, rowed and paddled the extensive lake, admired the bird life, played tennis and walked the woods. The perfect place for older children and young at heart adults.The house is easy to navigate and so comfortable, feeling like a real home from home. We would recommend and certainly return with family and friends.

Magnificent Jewel

It was by luck that I found this property and can honestly say the photos dont do it justice. My Jaw dropped when I arrived. The location is easy to get to and the house and grounds are kept immaculate. The lake is just something else and boosts this wonderful property. Communication with Maggie was efficient and seamless. We were 3 generations stayimg here and had the privilege of creating some memories in a beautiful setting. Thank you Maggie and family for opening your home to us

Wonderful!!!

We came as a family with grandchildren to stay in this amazing location and well equipped and comfortable house for a long weekend. We were not disappointed!! The photos do not do it justice!! The house had everything we needed and even the chef that we hired to cook said what a well equipped kitchen it was to work in! The grounds were breathtaking! We used the tennis courts ,boats and kayaks - the grown ups and the grandkids had so much fun!! We will definitely be back again soon Thank you so much Maggie x

Lake Lodge is a brilliant place to stay.The house is lovely, comfortable, clean and spacious, with everything you need whether you've booked for 2 or 8. We were a group of 7.The views from the living room are superb, over the lake so you can sit and enjoy the lake and the birdlife from the comfortable swivel armchairs (these are brilliant!). The kitchen is also a good size for cooking.But it's the outside of the property that really makes the stay special. There's a good size table for outside eating. We used the kayaks and rowing boats every day, visiting all 3 of the linked lakes. Swimming in the lake is easy and warmer than expected. The tennis court is a good alternative for the more active and there are various walks around the grounds/woodlands. You can also walk to other lakes and the local villages if you want to.There is abundant birdlife to spot around the lake, in particular nesting herons and white egrets, and also in the woods. There is also other wildlife to spot. The owners provide a checklist to assist in spotting the birds, mammals and fish.Finally Maggie, the host provides all the information you need and responds quickly to questions.100% recommended as a place to stay.

Family holiday for three generations.

All 9 of us enjoyed our stay . The house 🏠 had all we could wanted . The lake was just perfect we had been canoeing 🛶 before but not paddle boarding . We took our own paddle board and used the small one there . The wild life was there if you looked hard . The grounds and tennis court were also put to good use . The village pub was excellent and friendly . We shall return perhaps in the summer next time . All in all wonderful for a family to spend time together .
