We have just got back after throughly enjoying a much needed break at Lily Pad Lodge. When searching for places to stay, it can be very tricky finding a place that ticks boxes for everyone so when we came across Lily Pad Lodge we were so pleased. It did not disappoint. By far the best family/dog friendly place we have stayed at. Luxurious decor, furniture and appliances plus suitable for all.
The lodge is simply stunning and had pretty much everything we needed even the little things. We were greeted by a lovely thoughtful hamper of goodies for both us and the dog. Location was lovely and peaceful and allowed us the chance to put our phones down, switch off for the week and enjoy some quality family time.
We stayed during the heatwave which caused the lodge to get incredibly hot especially at night. We couldn’t see any air con system. Had I of checked the weather predictions I would of taken some fans for the rooms. We did meet the owner during our time at the lodge who was very welcoming and did mention that if we needed anything to just call but we didn’t want to feel awkward.
The only negative thing about the lodge is we did find it needs a good dust. There are lots of spider webs and flies which are expected when it’s particularly hot but I’ve never seen so many flies. Because of this we didn’t want to open any windows and tried to keep the doors closed as much as we could which didn’t help with the heat!
Apart from that minor grumble, It’s very clear the owners have put a lot of time and effort into the lodge, thinking of everything to ensure an enjoyable experience all round. Thank you so much for a lovely break.
