Stephen 10/10

A cosy Lodge with a lake view! Perfect

Pros: The location is nice and quiet, the owner came and said hello just after arrival. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The room was lovely and clean and the hut cosy and warm and quiet even with the wind and the rain. Lovely hot shower and comfortable living space. A lovely little site, that we would love to revisit with friends.

Cons: Nothing atall, we had a great stay!!

Perfect Stay

Pros: Perfect for a quiet getaway. Dog friendly lodge opposite a small lake, all the amenities we needed. We were made very welcome and had a super time. The local town of Melford is a short walk away with lots of pubs and independent shops. Perfect!

Cons: Nothing.

Hidden gem, quite literally!

Pros: We had such a wonderful stay at Lake View Lodges! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by Mark, the incredibly kind and talented owner who built the lodge himself — and it shows in every beautiful, handcrafted detail. The craftsmanship and care put into the lodge made it feel both luxurious and cosy, a true home away from home. The surroundings were nothing short of breathtaking. The lake and the stunning scenery created the perfect peaceful escape, ideal for morning coffees on the balcony and sunset strolls. We also absolutely loved meeting the adorable goats and friendly dogs on the property — such a unique and wholesome touch that added to the charm of the entire experience. If you're looking for a tranquil retreat in nature with all the comforts of a thoughtfully built lodge and the hospitality of a genuinely lovely host, this is the place. Thank you, Mark, for making our stay so special — we’ll be back!

Pros: Such a great visit! Lovely hosts. Went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Mark literally went out of his way, and very kindly dropped us in the local village when we needed a lift. Really nice people and couldn't have asked for more from them. The accommodation was first rate with everything you could want. Quiet, peaceful and with lovely views of their lake and the surrounding countryside. Lots to do in surrounding areas too, including several local historic villages. Mark is very knowledgeable about the local history and there are also bikes on site that you can use to explore!

Great location, excellent hosts and perfect for a short stay.

Pros: The location was superb. Great place to get away from the stresses of everyday life. Owners were very sociable and provided four cycles free of charge to investigate the local area.

Cons: The lodge was slightly smaller than expected but very cosy.

Beautiful lodge in a remote and quiet setting. Owners were so careful to be sure that all the small details were though

Pros: Beautiful setting. The owners were so careful to think of all the small details to make a stay as comfortable as possible. The lodge was incredibly clean with everything that one could need.

Cons: That we didn’t get to stay longer at the property because we were at a wedding.

Kathy 10/10

Ideal for a couple of days get away where you just want beautiful views and piece and quiet.

Pros: The owners were very accommodating as we weren't going to get to the property to well after midnight due to going to a wedding during the day, they had left a light on for us so our lodge was easy to find and a key code box to gain entry - Perfect. There was a very good kitchenette within the lodge which was stocked with all utensils, crockery etc that you could need - so we made our own breakfast. It was very clean, tidy and little touches made it homely.

Cons: Not a lot to dislike to be honest - maybe one trivial fact that there was only one glass that we could use for our orange juice - so I used a wine glass - wasn't the end of the world but I can't think of anything else negative to write.

Pros: We loved where it was. Plenty of room outside for the children to run around. Nice walks for the dogs too.

Cons: Maybe a microwave would be good.
