Why we love it
Your dog and you have the run of 25 acres of woodland and pasture, with two lakes to swim in and biscuits and blankets to come home to
"The peace and privacy we had was second to none"
The Lakeside Retreat was beyond all of our expectations. We knew there was an enclosed garden and 25 acres to explore but we had no idea our enclosed garden was the 25 acres. The freedom our dog had and the peace and privacy we had was second to none. The lake for swimming was perfect for both us & the dog!
We will definitely be rebooking!

The place
A shoes-off sort of place where you’ll forget what time it is the moment you arrive and never check again. While there’s a throwback simplicity to spending time here – picnicking, hiking, rowing on the lake, dozing on the jetty – the cabin is bright, spacious and well-appointed, so you get the best of the modern world mixed with the nostalgia of summers past. The comfort of the cabin, the little summerhouse, extensive grounds, flourishing wildlife and the arboretum might be more than enough to keep you occupied for a few days, but there’s plenty to tempt you out. Great walks like the climb up Clee Hill or the Mawley circular can include visits to lovely local pubs, and foodie Ludlow is just round the corner, with the quiet of the woods and the firepit making a perfect end to the day.
