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.

We have had a fabulous week at the at the Retreat. Idyllic paradise for us and our dogs, one is reactive, so to be able to let her run free without worrying about other dogs was priceless. Accommodation was everything we needed, although a washing machine would be good, we never use dishwasher. Would love to return.

We stayed for three days and didn’t switch the radio or tv on once, we just listened to the birds and watched the trees and the wildlife. Couldn't have asked for more, the place is a mini oasis in the middle of beautiful countryside. The cabin itself is bright, fresh and clean. Tastefully decorated and comfortably furnished, all the small details seem to be thought of, magazines, books, DVDs and games, bottle opener. Outside is beautiful with both established and new planting. It is clearly lovingly maintained without being over manicured. Even the dog seemed to have a great time.

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.
We have stayed at Lakeside Retreat for a number of years now and can’t wait to return every time we leave. The love and attention given to the grounds, plants and pools around the cabin is obvious and I don’t think I could ever tire to visit. It is a great place to get away from the noise and bustle of everyday life and fabulous for my dog. This is definitely her happy place and I feel she is completely safe when we are out walking round the pools. The cabin in comfortable, lovely light and airy and completely private. I thoroughly recommend the Lakeside Retreat.
