Superb Holiday Lodge...
 

"Superb Holiday Lodge - the flowers and eggs were a lovely touch on our arrival. This was our first trip down to Devon and would definitely visit again. The lodges are lovely and peaceful. Ray and Lyn have been very helpful. A real gem of a place."

Cowling Family, North Yorkshire.

 
 
Beautiful surroundings...
 

"Hubby and I are Aussies and we just love the English countryside, especially here. Beautiful surroundings and a superb lodge. Just lovely!"

Jim & Blaire, Australia

 
 
A fantastic 2 weeks...
 

"We have had a fantastic 2 weeks here. Lodge is fab. We travelled a long way from Scotland but the lodges and lakes lived up to our expectations if not exceeded them. Ray and Lyn have a very special place here and we hope to be back. We would most definitely recommend to friends."

Jim, Linda and Family, Scotland

 
 
Loved every minute...
 

"Loved every minute staying in the lodge. It's perfect for families and especially young children. The kids enjoyed a treasure hunt around the grounds and lakes. We also went Mackerel fishing at Boscastle, which was great fun. It provided ingredients for a BBQ at the beach."

Evans and Mellish Family

 
 
Very sad to go home...
 

"It has been a fantastic 3 weeks. Very sad to go home. The lodge is very comfortable and the views are wonderful. Our men enjoyed fishing nearly every day while we enjoyed shopping."

Ann, Rob, Jean and Colin, London

 
 
Exceptional accommodation...
 

"Thanks to Ray & Lyn for the exceptional accommodation. A very enjoyable stay. Excellent fishing, the best from about 10ib up to 20lb. Will recommend this excellent venue to our friends."

Len, Jenny and Nan, Bristol

 
 
Absolutely the best accommodation we have ever had in England...
 

"A very special place. Thank you, absolutely the best accommodation we have ever had in England. Delighted you received your Visit England Gold Award."

Sue & Mike, Herts.

 
 
Well above expectations...
 

"After reading previous comments all we can do is totally agree with everything that has been written. The accommodation was well above expectations. The highlight for us was waking to see 2 Roe Deer standing outside the lodge with a dusting of snow as a backdrop - fantastic! Hope to see you again soon."

Worrell & Cole Family, Brighton

 
 
So many detailed touches...
 

"A very well thought out and picturesque setting, with so many detailed touches. The fishing was an excellent bonus - even our daughter and niece were hooked! (groan at bad pun). Green credentials excellent - why can't all holiday accommodation be this thoughtful."

Angela & family

 
 
Very comfortable and relaxing...
 

"What a wonderful long weekend. The weather may have been unpredictable but we didn't mind as there is so much to see and do here. Ellie and Sophia loved all of the wildlife, birds and mini beasts. Ellie was delighted to see her first dragonfly, family of rabbits and ducklings. The lodge was very comfortable and relaxing. We will definitely return."

John, Angie and girls, Somerset

 
 
Everything you would need for a perfect holiday...
 

"A brilliant short break all round. Lodge is everything you would need for a perfect holiday. Very good couple of days fishing, although next time someone catches a carp it may be wearing my sunglasses!  Superb place - we will be back for a week next time."

Will, Becky, Stephen & Denise, Cornwall

 
 
We loved the peaceful setting...
 

"We loved the peaceful setting, wildflowers and lakes. The buzzards and ducklings were a bonus. Boys enjoyed canoeing and surf school at Widemouth Beach. We visited Tintagel, which was breathtaking, definitely worth a visit. We also love the eco-friendly approach towards tourism."

Parker family, Bath

 
 
The whole place just "blew us away"...
 

"Have stayed in England many times, but not this part of the country. We found Devon to be so picturesque, with lovely lanes and green fields. Staying at the lodge has been so refreshing, with two people like Ray and Lyn who care so much for the environment having created holiday accommodation sympathetically within such a beautiful and peaceful location. Achieving Gold Awards from the Green Tourism Business Scheme has to be commended. The whole place just 'blew us away'. We hope to return again one day. Thank you for everything!"

Burton-Prior Family, Geneva
