"Our Hambleton Lakeside Lodges review: Clean, stylish lodges with a modern touch, loved it!"

"We had a really lovely time at Lakeside VIP Lodges. The place was super well equipped - everything you could need was there. The lodges were spotless and we loved watching ducks and swans every time we stepped outside on the decking. Such a peaceful spot!"

"Really enjoyed the stay, will definitely return soon!"

"We recently stayed at this charming lodge and honestly, it was just what we needed. The place was spotless, warm and had a really modern feel to it. We stayed in Lodge 3 and Ian was a star-he greeted us warmly on arrival and was always around during our stay, giving us helpful tips. Even though there are two new lodges being built at the entrance, the noise never bothered us-just the usual drilling and knocking during the day. Stepping out onto the decking with views over the lake, swans and ducks peacefully floating by, was such a lovely way to start or end the day. Our visit was during a quiet time, so it was peaceful, but that didnt bother us at all. The location's great-only about 25 minutes to Blackpool and within walking distance to the dog-friendly Shovels pub, which serves fantastic home-cooked food. We also enjoyed drinks outside at the River Wyre pub, with gorgeous river views. The hot tub overlooking the lake at dusk, robes and slippers provided, made it extra special. Wed definitely recommend it - perfect for a relaxing getaway!"

"We recently stayed at this cosy lodge and honestly, it was quite a find. The hot tub was spot on, set at the perfect 40 degrees and we loved relaxing in it. The place had all the essentials, including a washing machine and dryer - though we didnt use them, its handy to know theyre there. Every room had its own TV, which was a nice touch. The location was pretty convenient, with a pub just a short walk away. We tried the Sunday lunch but felt it was a bit off - probably because of Mothers Day rush or trying to do too much. The food that arrived looked decent, though. Closer than the pub, theres a kebab and pizza shop that we honestly think is the best weve had in ages - tasted proper lamb! Theres also a chippy and a Spar nearby. A couple of minor things: you can see into the lodge opposite from the lounge and the hot tub could do with a blind on the patio doors. The noise from the main road isnt too bad, especially when in the hot tub, as the hedge is growing to block it out. The kitchen could do with a jug and a wooden spoon, but wed definitely come back!"

"We stayed in this cosy cottage and loved how peaceful it was, perfect for us. The hot tub was brilliant and the owners were genuinely friendly and helpful. Just right!"

Its well heated, spotless and perfect for exploring the local area, especially those beautiful walks to Thaxted. Wed definitely come back!"

"We had a fantastic week here from 15 to 22 July with our two adorable mini dachshunds. They loved making new friends in the charming village of Thaxted. The cottage itself was really lovely and the hot tub was a real treat-especially during the scorching hot days when it was cooled just right for a refreshing dip. The hosts were super friendly and welcoming and it was nice to see their dogs being taken out to the fields daily. Being close to Stansted and on the flight path was interesting too, watching planes arrive. Wed definitely recommend it!"
