“Was a nice lodge, in a very peaceful setting.”

There was a couple of minor problems, which were sorted by the staff immediately, which was good. A dishwasher would have been nice instead of a washing machine, which we didn't use, but that was just our preference. We enjoyed our stay.

“Living at Edwinstowe , a 40 min drive and your far enough to be away, things I forgot to take I wouldn’t of gone back home, that’s a break !”

, cabin was absolutely a supprise , clean fresh , bedding clean, everything was more than what we expected, it was like some one had OCD who looks after the cabin, Every thing you need including a hoover, we took ours incase they wasn’t one, as we took our dog, hopefully we cleaned it aswell as it was when we arrived Thank you so much will definitely go back Mr & Mrs Watson

“We have just returned from a lovely weekend break here at Thorpe park lodges!”

From arriving to leaving today everything was just fab! We arrived and were let into the ground straight away, we found our lodge, unloaded the car and made ourselves at home right away! We were thoroughly impressed with the lodge itself, the kitchen space was great, living room space was lovely and relaxing, the beds were made up ready and were comfy to sleep on and the hot tub being outside the door is fantastic! We spent most of our time in the hot tub and it was just perfection! Winters evening, clear sky, stars out just sitting in a hot tub relaxing! That’s what we wanted and that’s what we got! We would be more than happy to go back again next year! The dog also loved the space and the lodge! Thank you for a great stay ❤️

“We were very well looked after.”

Greeted and told everything was ready. Wasn’t hard to check in or out. Lovely clean lodge and amazing hot tub. Dvds were left and towels so these were nice extras. Nice duvets on the beds and generally a lovely place to stay. Perfect to stay in with a dog. Ordered a Chinese one night from jade garden and this was lovely too. We also pre ordered a Sainsbury’s delivery so we were all set. Would recommended this place to anyone. Would love to go back :-)

“Lovely and powerful, great fishing.”

lodge was ok, but really needs new sofas.

- Mrs Hill, September 2018
“The lodge was listed as being close to a pub and shop.”

Although this was technically correct, the route was not one that was safe to do by foot. There were no footpaths or street lighting. Hence a stroll to the local was not advisable.

- Mrs Hasler, August 2018
“We loved it there both my kids are 2 and 4 years old loved fishing with their dad on the lake.”

They caught loads during the week. I loved he hot tub. It was also nice a relaxing for my 2 dogs. The only thing the park could do with is maybe a little wooden play area for kids. It was abit windy while we were they but also very warm,so we had the winds open a lot. Maybe curtainsor roller blinds would be better than the blinds that were in the cabin as they were getting blown everywhere. The groundsman on the site was really friendly and helpful when we asked questions about nice places to visit. So overall we had a lovely time nice and peaceful and relaxing. So thankyou

“Amazing lodges, wonderful scenery and great customer service - we will be returning again :)”

- Mr Walsh, May 2018
“Great location easy reach of Lincoln Woodhall Spa and many of the beautiful hidden gems of Lincolnshire.”

Detached lodges allowing for privacy. Lodge spacious and windows letting in wonderful natural light. I would add that Birkdale Lodge 3 is pet friendly, however decking and wooden bench on it a little in need of attention. Bench probably needs replacing. Only way of cleaning was an old broom, a mop and bucket fine. Justin who works at Thorpe Park Lodges is the most helpful person, attending to any issues keeping the grounds in good order and providing location information that i followed up and had a good day. Well done Justin

“Accommodation was ungraded for us and it really was a home from home.”

Tastefully decorated and with all the facilities you need

- Mr Capes, April 2018
“The location was so peaceful and relaxing, our lodge was comfortably furnished and better than average equipped for self catering hols.”

The added bonus was being able to take the dog and having a grassy area around the lodge for her.

- Miss Childerhouse, March 2018
“Lovely stay!”

Stayed here for 3 nights, and what a relaxing few days we had, was able to take my German Shepard and even she enjoyed it, especially the wildlife! Was very thankful that the heating was on as it was bitterly cold when we got there, we had a 2 bedroom place as I went with friends, all the staff were very helpful, and we are already in the process of booking again for October 18. Also I would just like to say having read the only bad review, I must disagree, you have to remember you get what you pay for, and we believe we had a very good deal...

“Little bit of Luxury”

Really lovely stay at the lodge. Really clean and impressive accomodation and the hot tub was a lovely piece of luxury. Nice quiet park, people are really friendly on site. Pet friendly and we had a really relaxing break would stay again in a heartbeat.

- Helen M, February 2018
“With 2 little kids to entertain, I think the television needed better signal or more channels.”

. not sure which one. We ended up buying a now tv box to help entertain us all through the evening. Wi-Fi is good signal and value for money!

- Miss Stokes, December 2017
“The only issue we had was with the lack of T.”

V.channels.Perhaps the T.V. Could be updated.This is however the only thing we found wrong.The staff were very friendly and lnformative of the area.Really loved the break.

- Mr Sparkes, November 2017
“Birkdale Lodge”

Stayed at the Birkdale lodge, very relaxing bank holiday weekend, fantastic lodge and the groundman (Justin) is a really nice and helpful guy, will defiantly return and recommend to friends and family, would like to find some information on how to buy one! Thank you Keith.

- Keitht17, June 2017
“Perfect lodge perfect weather.”

We ateyed for a week in the Birkdale lodge and had the most amazing time, hottub was great, staff friendly and couldn't do enough for us, on the Tuesday the temperature was so hot they went out a bought an air conditioning unit especially for myself and my wife. We've booked again already and coming back in December for the Lincoln Christmas market. Thanks again Thorpe Park Lodges. Steve & Chris.

“Excellent Location - Comfortable Stay”

This park is beautifully placed to explore Lincoln and the surrounding area. The lodges themselves are spacious, well-kept and comfortable, although they could do with a bit more storage for clothes and in the bathrooms (a shower shelf, maybe) . The second bedroom is two singles and has one small bedside cabinet. The hot tub at the back was great - I really want one now! Because all the windows have blinds you might not wish to open them until you are fully dressed. It was very quiet - I slept like a log all week. Kitchen not extensively equipped (tiny fridge), but has all the essentials unless you're planning huge fancy dinner parties! No dishwasher or wifi, if those things are important to you. We never turned the TV on all week! I would recommend this and would stay again with no hesitation.

“Peaceful”

Just returned from a weeks stay at this lodge Excellent lodge, wonderful spaAlways on and lovely and warm. Very clean, great beds and bathrooms. Underfloor heating was very welcome after a days outing in the biting cold winds

“fabulous weather made it special”

booked for one week last summer. was a freakily hot week! absolutely lovely wooden lodge, just my cup of tea! hot tub outside was very welcome and well used. nicely furnished although not great range of crockery/cutlery etc. lovely bedroom leading out onto decking. Fabulous bathrooms! claims to be pet friendly but really nowhere to walk your dog unless you go in the car to the nature reserve (which is great) they rely on the on site golf club for food/drinks etc but you cant take your dog! really have to use the car if you want to eat out or go to a pub as nothing in walking distance. overall a lovely lodge if you just want to chill out.

- Vanessa H, April 2013
“Very Relaxing”

Lovely accommodation and surroundings. Owners very accommodating, especially when I had to collect my cat at short notice and take him back to the Lodge with me. Hot tub was fantastic and we managed to use it every day, despite a rainless thunder storm! Would definitely go back and I would certainly recommend to anybody.
