The Experience

Off-piste drivers will delight in the approach – down a stone track, over an open field, across a ford and through grassy woodland. You land in a dreamy, bucolic setting with an arboretum and views over two deep water lakes (yes you may swim, and yes you may use a little boat) with island, waterfalls, a small summerhouse that revolves, and a stream teeming with wildlife.

A veranda and patio with table and chairs face south so you won’t miss a thing; writers, artists and those clutching a large drink may take root here on less chilly days. Your wooden cabin is comfortable and very cosy: find one fresh and airy living/dining room with a fully formed kitchen area and plenty of good seating; glass doors open out to the terrace.

The main bedroom has a giant bed with a pretty batik bedspread; the bunk room is fine for adults or children. You’re left homemade jams and usually a cake. The sky will be starry on clear nights.

Reviews

Julie, St Albans

Peaceful and perfect! Everything you need in a holiday cottage set in a wonderful location. Lots of walks close by which are equally quiet (brilliant if you have a nervous dog). Good selection of pubs to try too.


Liz, Aylesbury

A great couple of days away. Very tranquil and relaxing, i've not slept so well in a long time. Victoria and family were very welcoming, and the retreat is of a very good standard, would highly recommend. I'm now trying to figure out when we can go back.


Chrissy, Greater Manchester

We were impressed with the web site but simple thrilled and wowed by the reality of lakeside retreat. The cabin was very modern and with the New England style we love. So clean and very cosy. The bed was also very comfortable . The terrace area and barbecue was perfect and the cabin surrounded by the lake , trees and beautifully managed lawn areas. We loved walks by the lakes and the summerhouse was really special. Retreat is the key word it is so peaceful and quiet surrounded by beautiful nature . The owners were really welcoming and helpful in all enquiries etc.


Patricia, Beckermet

An utterly blissful place.


Chelsea, Essex

No words can do this place justice! It is just absolutely amazing! Surrounded by beautiful lakes, stunning views and a picturesque private little forest all to ourself! I couldn't fault this place. I would 100% recommend this place! Private and secluded, with a wealth of wildlife surrounding us! There are lots of things to do close by and lovely places to eat! Very pet friendly as well. We will definitely be coming back soon!

Introducing

Victoria Orchard

The family have lived around here for many years and have a small estate around Lakeside Retreat suitable for walking and exploring when livestock aren't out. They dredged and relined the lakes with clay, replanted several species of trees and created their woodland and wildlife project which is home to kingfishers, ducks, owls and many others.
