Excellent as always only one small issue, robes are no longer available in the lodge's, as returning customers we were not aware of this and did not bring any with us for the hot tub. We will know when we return.

The Lodge was beautiful the hot tub was lovely the fence surrounding the lodge was great with our dogs they could wander around, which really worked for us. The lodge were beautiful decorated had everything you need apart from a long mirror, It would have been great and a dressing table in the twin room. The location is out of the way and we would of loved a small shop on site just selling the essentials. We used the hive cafe on site for 2 takeaway breakfasts and a dinner, which were lovely. The only other problem were the flies the lodge was covered in them when we got there as the patio doors were open. The hot tub was always hot would of liked a cover over the top used it every evening. The garden would of looked nice with some lights or planters for abit of colour. The stay was lovely and would like to try the houses next as they look nice.
Overall the lodge was excellent. Would be even better with a larger fridge/freezer, in our opinion a Must, also a washing machine. There is plenty of room to accommodate these items.The outlook with be better one the other lodges have been erected, not looking at a building site.
Fantastic lodge lovely and private
Had a wonderful stay at herons mead, staff were lovely and great information wise before and during our stay. Along with great fishing if you like that sort of thing hubby and son loved.. there is a great cafe which sells lovely food and great drink selection too. We stayed in a beautiful log cabin which was very spacious and had beautiful decor. We had a few gripes which we have fed back they are minor (tiny fridge/freezer and table to small, no hot tub clean or maintenance during our stay) which could have made our stay perfect. Im sure they will address these small but important gripes. Thanks again to the lovely staff. Highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our stay at the lodge! The fenced area was a lifesaver for our dog to run around freely. The place was spotless and had all the essentials. Only thing wed suggest is more washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets for a week-long visit. Otherwise, great experience!
We had a really lovely stay at the lodge. The hot tub in the private garden was perfect for unwinding and great for the dog too. Staff were super friendly and helpful!
We recently booked into the new oak lodges at Herons Mead, which had just opened in 2024. Honestly, the place was super comfy and well-equipped with everything you'd expect, including a hot tub and a private garden - perfect for relaxing. The setting is lovely, surrounded by fields and its pretty peaceful, which we really appreciated. The site itself has all the essentials and the on-site restaurant serves some nice quality food. The fishing lakes are a bonus and it's a good spot if you're planning to explore the coast or local attractions.That said, there are a couple of niggles. Water pressure at Oak Lodge 2 was pretty low, making showers a bit of a chore - a real letdown for a brand-new lodge. Also, the twin patio doors leading out to the steps and hot tub dont have any blinds or curtains, which seems odd since the garden is private. Maybe they think its unnecessary, but itd be a nice touch. The stone driveway isnt the best for prams or pushchairs, especially with a 7-month-old in tow. Plus, if more lodges are built, its a bit of a walk to the lakes or restaurant with all your kit.The fishing included in the stay was great, but we did get a bit conflicting info from staff about it, so clearer communication would help. Overall though, were happy we chose Herons Mead and would definitely come back. Its a solid base for exploring the coast and local sights!
We had an amazing stay at Hawthorne Lodge! The space was perfect and everything inside felt quite high quality. Only thing we missed was a bigger fridge since we were there a whole week and found the small one a bit tricky. Still, wed happily come back. Definitely recommend!
The Hawthorne lodge was wonderful. It was very spacious and all the fixtures and fittings were of a high standard. The only improvement would be a large fridge/freezer as we stayed for 7 days and struggled with the small fridge. However, thats a minor detail and we would definitely return.
The lodge was spotless and had all the essentials we needed for our stay. The only thing to note is that the hot tub might be a bit tight if all six of us wanted to use it at once. Still, a lovely place!
Absolutely loved our stay! The lodge was stunning, spotless and had everything we could ask for. Well definitely be coming back again soon. Highly recommend it!
