This is our own family holiday residence (regret unsuitable for children under 7 years) and as such is fully equipped for a home-from-home experience.

Complete relaxation
The property is spacious and very clean , the beds were comfortable and the property had all the essentials needed + more . It is a very quiet location and all you will be able to hear are the birds and other wildlife . Its about a 20 minute drive from Bude which is a lovely seaside town with easy parking . The hot tub was a great addition and we used it every morning and night. This place is great for your dog too as they can be kept within the lodge area safely. We needed to see a vet out of hours and i can recommend the one listed in the welcome pack , they were pleasant and attentive, when dealing with us at 4am and the price was much cheaper than we would normally pay . Overall i would give our experience of staying here a comfortable 10/10

Lovely quiet retreat
Had a wonderful stay in this place. Very well equipped. Shower lovely and hot tub great, decking areas were lovely. In fact it was all pretty great, beds comfy, blankets duvet clean and new, loved it. Close by beach and good restaurants, just what we needed. Tiny lanes, which were great fun as we felt like we were really away from hustle and bustle of home, navigating our way to new areas of Devon and Cornwall. Thank yiu so much. Xx

Hartland Heaven!
Brilliant lodge stay with the added bonus of the hot tub on the decking! A true home from home, everything there including fast wifi and SMART TV with Firestick. Very clean and tidy, property was in super condition, comfortable beds, fluffy towels and always plenty of hot water. Only thing that we would change as 4 x adults is the living room seating arrangement by putting the 2 x sofas facing the TV on the wall and have the dining table near the patio doors, that way 4 people can sit and watch TV. We could have changed it ourselves, but didnt want to mark the carpet with the weight of the sofa feet! Other than that absolutely fabulous, will come and stay again if we can! Thank you for a lovely week.

Excellent family countryside get away with hot tub
Really well equipped lodge to high standard with excellent hot tub and bbq. Owners caring and responsive. Remote countryside/woodland setting with golf course and fishing lakes nearby. Not really that near to anything else but plenty of excellent day trips within 30-40 min drive. Stayed 1 week with children and had plenty to do. Thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend.

A welcoming, beautifully furnished lodge with everything you could need.
The lodge was a perfect getaway, home from home. It is nicely secluded from views of other lodges and in an ideal location to explore the beautiful area of North Devon. It was immaculate when we arrived and felt very comfortable. The hot tub was ideal after a days walking. Highly recommended.

Lovely, peaceful place
We have just returned from an amazing week at this property. The lodge has absolutely everything you need for your stay and Julie provided great local information, which was very useful as we had not stayed in this area before. The lodge is in a really good location and there is so much to do just on the doorstep. A meal at the Bush Inn is recommended - the food was delicious and the staff were extremely friendly. The lodge was very comfortable, and we very much enjoyed a dip in the hot tub later on in the evening. We would like to thank Julie, as we had such a lovely time, and we would definitely return to this lodge!
