Description
Maple Lodge is an inviting, wooden-clad lodge on the outskirts of Greetham village in Rutland, East Midlands.
With a private hot tub, on-site swimming pool and sociable open-plan living, this characterful retreat is a fantastic choice for a family or group of friends looking to spend quality time together.
Arrive at the lodge and step inside, where darker timber creates a rich backdrop to the open-plan living space.
Sink into one of two sofas and unwind in front of the TV, or gather around the dining table, which comfortably seats six guests.
When appetites call, put on your chef’s hat and create flavoursome culinary delights in the well-equipped kitchen, where fresh white fixtures contrast with the darker wood and a breakfast bar with two stools offers another spot to sit and chat.
A handy washing machine and dishwasher make light work of the chores, leaving more time to enjoy your getaway.
If the sun is shining, why not make dinner an alfresco event by firing up the barbecue out on the private patio?
Settle around the outdoor furniture, stretch out on the sun lounger or enjoy the lawn, before ending the evening with a soak in the bubbling hot tub.
As the evening cools, warm up with a toasty shower or blissful soak in the bath, before popping on your pyjamas and retreating to the sofa to find your favourite series on the TV.
As your eyes grow heavy, make your way to one of three beautifully decorated bedrooms, starting with a double featuring a mounted TV, dressing table, doors opening directly onto the garden and an en-suite shower room.
A second double and the twin bedroom each have their own TV, giving everyone a space to unwind at the end of the day.
Serving the remaining bedrooms, the family bathroom features a bath with shower over and a heated towel rail.
When you fancy a change from exploring Rutland, head to the on-site swimming pool and enjoy a refreshing dip.
Maple Lodge is a characterful base for making lasting memories together in the East Midlands.

All the staff were very friendly on arrival and leaving
Beautiful lodge and very well equipped
The lodge had the potential of being a very luxurious and comfortable holiday home unfortunately it was a disappointment from the start.
Not much of a welcome from the reception staff, no "enjoy your stay and if there is anything you need don't hesitate......" Just a long list of what you can't do and rules! I'm not sure what the cleaning team spent their time doing but it sure wasn't cleaning. Cobwebs and dust everywhere. Having glass on all the tables didn't help matters as it made the fact that it wasn't being properly cleaned very obvious, especially when the sun shone through the dirty windows. One of the three bedrooms had the main lightbulb missing, which we reported early in our stay as it made it impossible to see your clothes in the chest of draws as it was so dark that end of the room. We reported it missing and was told the warden will replace it. He came and looked and told us the cleaners carried spares in their trolley, still nothing, spoke to cleaners who told us they did not have a spare, wardens responsibility and they were on order. Nobody came and explained any of this and in the meantime we had to find a part solution to the problem by moving a bedside table lamp up the other end of the room. This room also didn't have a remote control for the TV, and as the TV was very high up on the wall, meant it was unusable. The twin bedroom had a remote control for TV but it didn't work! Hot tub was very nice but with no cushions for the garden seats, not a very comfortable place to sit and relax. We had friends staying in a touring van on the site with dogs. We knew you could not have dogs staying in the lodge but had assumed we would be able to have visits to the garden so that we could socialise. It meant we couldn't host our friends at the lodge as one of them always had to stay back with the dogs, disappointing! An inventory would be good, if there was anything you needed you had absolutely no idea whether it was there or not without searching a vast number of cupboards and drawers. The kitchen was very well fitted out. We were 3 people in a 6 berth lodge and we could sit comfortably of an evening on 2 x 2 seater sofas but I'm not sure what we would have done if we were 5 or 6 people. Lastly having only one set of keys between 3 (could be 6) people was a complete pain. If anyone wanted to get out of the "compound", someone else had to escort you to open the electronic gates (vehicle and pedestrian) or else they would be stuck for the duration you were away! I can't begin to imagine how inconvenient this would be with 6 people sharing, not everyone comes and goes at the same time, ridiculous. It made it feel more like a prison compound! In summary, not in my opinion a luxury accommodation but a luxury price. Disappointing.
