This place is really lovely, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The setting by the lake is stunning and very relaxing. Our dogs absolutely loved the open fields and running around. Thanks to Mike & Wendy for making it special, we'll definitely return!

Oliver

We had such a lovely stay! The privacy was really appreciatedand the kitchen had everything we needed, plus a handy utility room. The landing and banister added a nice touch of charm. Someone mentioned needing a 4x4 to reach the place, but our Puma handled it no problem. Relaxing in the hot tub, listening to the wildlifeand soaking in the stunning views was just perfect. We'll definitely be back!

Emma Carter

We stayed at this lovely holiday home and it was just perfect for our family. The views were stunningand having bedrooms downstairs with a bathroom made things so much easier for our disabled brother. He loved watching the geese on the lake and enjoyed the hot tub once we managed to lift him in and out. Our daughters gave it a solid 10/10and Mike and Wendy were super friendly and helpful, always just a call away. Definitely a place we'd return to!

Clara Hughes

We just got back from a wonderful stay at Lake Retreat and honestly, it exceeded our expectations! The house is stunning and really well maintained, with everything we needed for a comfortable break. Despite Storm Isha passing through, the place stayed warm and cosyand the hot tub was still a highlight. Our dogs had a great time running around outside, which was a big plus. The layout made everything easy and enjoyable. The owners were incredibly attentive and friendly, which made us feel really welcome. We're already planning to come back and stay longer next time - loved it!

Jamie

Just got back from a lovely stay at Lake Retreat. Honestly, if you're after a peaceful escape, this place is perfect. The views from the lodge are stunningand it really feels like getting away from everything. We spent a lot of time fishing on the lakeand caught some decent carp, which was a bonus. The hot tub was a real highlight, so relaxingand we loved having the log burner on most nights. We definitely plan to return - highly recommend it!

James

Honestly, we might give it another try after a proper makeover. The place itself is stunning, but the access roads are pretty rough-definitely need a sturdy vehicle to get in and out!

Alex Morgan

We had an amazing stay at the lake retreat! It's exactly as described - peaceful, surrounded by natureand perfect for unwinding. Cooking in the open-plan kitchen/lounge was a real highlightand sitting on the veranda in the mornings, listening to wildlife, was so calming. My partner, who has Parkinson's, loved fishing for carp, while we took the dog for walks through the woods and fields. Huge thanks to Mike and Wendy for a lovely week. We'll definitely be back!

Jessica

We loved the peaceful location and the friendly owners. The kitchen had everything we neededand there was plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. It was a bit pricey, but overall, we were really pleased!

Emma Clarke

Honestly, we had such a lovely stay here. The house is beautifully decorated and feels really cosy. We loved how peaceful it was - perfect for relaxing and unwinding. The garden and lake were a hit with our dog, who enjoyed endless fetch sessions and walks straight from the doorstep. We even tried fishing and managed to catch four carp over the week, which was a bonus! The place is quite remote, so make sure to stock up beforehand because there's no shops nearby. The access road is a bit bumpy too, but totally worth it. Can't wait to come back!

Emma

The cottage was lovely, really well stocked and in a perfect, peaceful spot. We had such a relaxing break, it was just what we needed!
