This was our 3rd stay at Roadford lake and the best one yet! The lodge was amazing, such good attention to detail, very clean and private. Although you're on the main road for the lodges everything is private the bushes they have grown completely cover your seating area and hot tub. The Hot tub was clean and massive great addition. It's very modern and stylish and the owners have thought of everything. The en-suite bathroom is hidden in the wardrobe which is just incredible. The one little thing we think but I wouldn't mark it down for this is the mattress in the main bedroom is on its way out, you can feel all the springs through it but we still managed to sleep so it's all good. Well stocked kitchen with appliances and utensils and they leave spices, seasonings, milk, tea, coffee, sugar, kitchen roll, washing up stuff for you which is lovely.
A great family holiday ?I would recommend a trip to the roadford lake activity center and a walk to the sun dial.
The whole place was lovely and clean, perfect for us girls to have a chilled weekend, the downside was that we had no umbrella/parasol for the outside patio area, when we rang the out of hours number (nobody at reception) to ask if we could have one the answer was no, even when asked if we could take one from a lodge that was vacant.
Lovely lodge but could have done with a duster on top of the skirting boards and corners, having said that it was generally clean and very comfortable. Cleaners just need to pay attention to detail then it would have been 5 out of 5 A few matching glasses wouldn't go a miss either. Very handy for the A30.
Thank you for a fantastic 4 day stay in Orchid Lodge, it was a treat for my 60 th Birthday. The lodge was of high standards, comfortable, amazingly clean, and equipped with everything you could posdinly think of. The site is so quiet and peaceful , just what you need for a perfect chilled break. The hot tub was a touch of luxury to add to the relaxing break. I would definitely stay here again, I've already recommended it to lots of my friends and Family. Many thanks again.
A very nice spacious lodge in a good position within the site, easy access to the lakeside cafe were good quality food and drinks are available, we had a problem locking and unlocking the front door to the lodge but were able to use door from lounge for access also the top oven inner glass retaining plastic piece was loose, both were reported for repair after our departure.
Stayed for a few days, unfortunately the weather was terrible, but the lodge was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We were told beforehand that the hob was not working and they offered to change us to another lodge and a refund of £80, but on looking at the pictures online it was not as nice as the Orchid lodge so we stuck with our first choice, but thought it was a shame they didn’t offer a refund for not having hob access. The lodge was very clean and the bedrooms very luxurious, the hidden en-suite was a nice touch. Some recommendations would be to fit televisions in at least the master bedroom there was an aerial and space for one, as with the bad weather it would have been nice to be able to watch something else if the main tv was being used. The hot tub was lovely, but we didn’t feel comfortable using during the day as it faced the road so we only used it at night. Also fencing all around the property would make it safer for letting the dog out as we had to take her out each time on the lead. The lake area is very pretty and even though we did not use the cafe it did look very inviting. There isn’t much in the local area we had to drive out most of the time which we don’t mind as we like to explore. If you want to eat in the local pubs make sure you book early as they book up very quickly. Most take aways and supermarkets are in the Launceston which is about 10-15 mins away. Overall we enjoyed our stay, it’s a beautiful lodge in a lovely area.
Recently stayed at Orchid Lodge with a baby and dog. Had a great stay despite the weather's best efforts! The property was clean, modern and a home from home with luxury added. Great location for walks and the coast is only 40min drive away. All resulted in a perfect break away.
Lodge was lovely, very clean and comfortable with nice large bathrooms. The hot tub was excellent and was checked each day and it was well worth hiring the spa robes and extra towels for its use. I may have missed an option for a welcome pack, but the kitchen did not have any condiments, tea, coffee, foil, kitchen roll etc so worth packing your own. The site was very quiet with easy access for a walk to Roadford Lake. We used it as a base for some day trips to the coast around 45 minutes away as well as visiting some local towns. Strawberry Fields farm shop and cafe locally was worth a visit too. A great relaxing break at a very peaceful location.
Would recommend, very clean and everything required is supplied. Can't wait to book again for summer time.
Orchid lodge was fantastic! From the hot tub to the lovely modern decor. Will 100% be returning!
Just come back from this lodge. Amazing! There was a lovely fresh smell as soon as we opened the door and all the way through the lodge. It was immaculately clean and the standard of the lodge was fantastic. The hot tub was checked and cleaned every day by on site staff. We took a dog with us and if I could make one small comment it would be that the outside space is not secure. We were aware of this so took a long lead for her to be attached to and we could wrap around the fencing posts so she could go outside with us safely. We noticed one of the lodges did have a gate to section off a small part of their outside space and this would have been lovely but didn't spoil our stay in any way. Would love to return and we are looking at going back next year with family. Highly recommend.
The lodge seemed beautiful clean however 2 pregnancy tests were found under the beds of the twin room. Also Hot tub was badly positioned right next to the 2nd double bed making it incredibly noisy and guests were unable to open window during a very hot weekend and No fans were at the lodge either. When we contacted the house keeper she said there was little that she could. Last year we stayed at The Meadow lodge which ticked all the boxes. Unfortunately if these issues can’t be sorted we’d probably not return to No 23.
Luxurious accommodation with hot tub. Exactly how described. Lovely quiet site. Only negative is that the lodge itself garden/patio is not secure so if you have a dog you may need to keep them on an extended lead to be outside if they have a tendency to wander! You do need a car and if you want to go to the coast you are looking at a 20+ mile trip. We can't wait to go again - lovely stay.
We stay in the same lodge as last year which was nice we did have an issue with the dishwasher which wasn't sorted while we were there we did manage to get it working for our stay.
