  • "We stayed at Macklemore lake and lodge for a long weekend to celebrate a 60th Birthday."

    Sharon the owner was so helpful before arriving with providing details regarding the lodge which was so helpful. The lodge is located on a lake in a relaxing private setting. The grounds are kept perfectly and the fish in the lake are huge. The lodge was so welcoming, it was clean and inviting there was nothing not thought of with the kitchen having plenty of table wear and glasses and even having an airfyer. The rooms are spacious and comfortable we had young children with us and we were provided with a travel cot. We enjoyed evenings on the hot tub which was hot and clean and surrounded by lovely views. The lodge is located close to a local shop and around 15 mins away from Cleethorpes which has a steam train. We visited a local pub called The Livesey Arms for Sunday lunch which was lovely and around 5 minutes drive from the lodge. I would recommend this lodge and we will definitely be returning. We definitely had a memorable weekend.

    Thank you Laura, really pleased you all had a fabulous time. Hope to see you again in the future. Kindest regards Sharon Property Owner

  • "Just returned from a week with the family (six adults, four grandchildren - all under six & two dogs) at Micklemore Lakes and Lodges."

    Location is truly stunning, with private landscaped grounds and lake, a great place to chill out and relax. Plenty to do for the more active - seaside is close by - Cleethorpes around 20 minutes, Mablethorpe 40 minutes and the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds on the doorstep with walks and cycle routes aplenty. Plenty of pubs, nice restaurants and shops within a short drive. The lodge is modern, spacious and immaculately clean, with all modern facilities and good Wi-Fi. Loved sitting in the hot tub watching the sun go down over the countryside with a glass of wine and walking around the lake and island with the dogs and kids, watching the fish jumping. All in all a beautiful location and lodge - will definitely be booking for 2025.

  • "This lodge is just stunning, from the entrance through private gates, up the gravel drive, overlooking your private fishing lake … and then inside the lodge, it’s immaculate, very well decorated, all mod cons, and decking view to watch the sun rise to your right, and set on your left."

    The owners were first class with communication and helpful tips for local eatery’s. If you want privacy, comfort, and just a top class venue for a break, look no further. Highly highly recommended.

    Thank you for your very kind words Lisa means a great deal. Property Owner

  • "Wow, what a lodge!"

    ! We arrived late on a Thursday evening and we were absolutely thrilled to find that the property was even better than the pictures online. The owners were very helpful before, during and after our stay at the lodge, with clear instructions of access codes and always on hand to answer any questions. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the stay and can't wait to book again.

    Glad you enjoyed your stay Jessica, look forward to welcoming you again. Property Owner

  • "Thank you so much for our stay at your beautiful lodge."

    we’ve had such a wonderful 5 day break. We were a group of 5 including our 11 year old and our two Jack Russell’s. Although the entrance to the site was on a main road, once behind the gates it was a little dream of its own. The whole place was perfect, beautifully decorated to an extremely high standard with top quality bedding, lighting and facilities. It was spotlessly clean and so so well equipped, easily the best accommodation of this nature we’ve ever hired! We felt the whole place and lake was excellently maintained inside and out and felt really secure and secluded which was exactly what we were hoping for, especially with having the dogs free to roam outside. The lodge itself is just perfect, great communal kitchen/dining space with plenty of different areas to suit the whole party. The bedrooms were great, beds incredibly comfortable, all with high quality linen and pillows, and individual room climate control allowed for total flexibility. Bathrooms finished to an exceptional standard, high tech without any confusion, great showers and lighting. Excellent to have a washing machine, which we used a couple of times (due to the muddy conditions and fishing!), all kitchen appliances amazing, and even an air-fryer! The owners of this place have done an absolutely top class job making sure there is literally everything you could ever need in terms of crockery, kitchen tools and home comforts. Whilst my husband, son and mother in law spent much of the days exploring the local beaches, towns and shops, My brother and I fished the lake from dawn until dusk (in ALL the weathers - and we had everything!) and we both said we’d not had such great fishing for nearly 20years!! The fish are stunning, all in such perfect condition, we didn’t find the 35lb’ers but we did have over 500lbs worth or common and mirror carp in total over 4days! Catch after catch, all 6-15lbs which was great fun. The luxury of having the lake to ourselves was absolutely valued, it was just perfect to have all the home comforts and such excellent fishing! We felt spoilt!! We ate out at a couple of the local pubs, both of which were only a few mins drive as well as there being a great Chinese, a few local shops and some fish and chip shops within a mile or so from the lodge. All in all, this was an outstanding place, worth every penny and if we could give 100stars, we would. We will DEFINITELY be back!

    It has to be one of the most beautiful locations and places I have been to. As soon as you arrive is simply has a magical feel to it. The lake and lodge are both breathtaking and Sharon is the epitome of first class experience. The interior decor in the lodge is simply beautiful. I really cannot recommend enough. Lots of beautiful carp too in the lake and such a safe environment for you to stay in, coupled with your furry friends. Our 4 month year old puppy absolutely loved it! There are not many places I have have cried when leaving - but this was one of them! Cannot wait to go back to our beautiful haven and thank you Sharon for everything - you are amazing x

  • "For starters, the owner is the sweetest lady ever."

    I’ve never been more comfortable going somewhere to stay, we had absolutely everything we could possibly need available to us. I can’t even begin to describe how surreal the lodge is itself, you have the entire lake to yourself too and it feels unreal. The location is isolated enough for you to have fun with who you’re going with, but also only 5-10 minutes drive from nearest villages with shops. Literally every single utensil is provided for you should you wish to cook your own food. Words cannot do this place justice, you just have to go and stay!

  • "I can confidently say I was very impressed with the facilities."

    They have done a great job stying and choosing there furniture. We are already missing the view of the lake as soon as you wake. I was also very impressed with the security especially having a young family and a dog. It’s a must visit especially at that price. Well done all!!!!

    Thanks for the lovely review. I’m glad you and your family (and dog haha) had a great time! You are right though, the view of the lake is absolutely beautiful! Property Owner

    We were there for the winter break. The place was sparkling clean and smelling amazing when we arrived. Had all amenities, hot tub was set, even had a Christmas tree. The lodge itself it’s stunting and and so nicely located, you get a lot of privacy. We had no issues whatsoever during our stay. Perfect host! 10 out if 10.
