The lodge was beautiful! It felt premium and was really comfortable. The view of the lake along with the log fire and hot tub makes this a really relaxing place to be. We will definitely return for another holiday.

Outstanding!! Beautiful lodge, very clean and comfortable. So relaxing looking out over the fishing lake while sitting in the hot tub listening to the birds. All utensils, towels, cleaning products that you need. Luxury bath too. Perfect location for Exeter shopping and Quay, Tiverton for canal trips and great local pubs. Will definitely return xx

Stunning property and location. Beautifully furnished and very spacious. The bed was absolutely fantastic! Highly recommend as a place to stay for a peaceful and relaxing holiday. The hot tub was simply awesome and with the stunning view made it even more special. We had some super weather and made the most of the location for some trips to the seaRead more and beautiful villages. Only 1 day of rain and the wood burner added a really cosy feel for our last night. Hosts very welcoming and so thank you for a wonderful stay. Hide

Beautiful, new lodge in a stunning location. Very peaceful and relaxing. The lodge is really well equipped and very comfortable. We had mixed weather so the log burner and hot tub had plenty of use. Definitely recommended and we will be back. We eat at the Keepers Cottage twice. Great food and beer. Good pub.

We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful lodge set right on the edge of the water. From the moment we arrived, it felt like the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The setting is incredibly peaceful, and being able to fully relax and unwind in such a tranquil spot was exactly what we needed. One of the highlights waRead mores definitely the hot tub, sitting back and looking out over the lake was simply stunning and so calming, especially as the day wound down. The lodge itself is finished to a very high standard, with real attention to detail throughout. Its clear the owners have put a lot of thought into making sure guests feel comfortable and able to completely switch off. The location is great for exploring the surrounding area during the day, then returning to total peace and quiet in the evening. We honestly couldnt have asked for more and would absolutely love to return in the future. Hide
