**For complete comfort during the hotter months, this lodge benefits from air-conditioning in its bedrooms.**

Well-known for its abundance of lakeside activities, Roadford Lake is an outdoor adventurer’s dream destination, with cycle paths, walking routes and water-based activities galore, so if you’d like to get active during your stay, you can do so to your heart’s content. Just 100m from the lake’s edge, the setting is a dreamy one, and is perfect as a ‘back to nature’ weekend escape or for extended holidays with family and friends. Inside you’ll discover a space that’s as comfortable as it is good-looking.

There’s an open plan living / entertainment area with large dining table and fully-fitted kitchen, as well as big, comfy sofas and a flat screen TV. Two fabulous bedrooms (both of which have sliding doors to the terrace), invite deeply comfortable nights of rest, while the two modern en-suite bathrooms mean plenty of space for four guests.The whole living area opens out on to the private terrace where an outdoor dining suite and a bubbling hot tub invite fresh-air feasts, BBQ’s and relaxing soaks in the sunshine, and when the sun sets you can cosy up in front of the 65 inch Skyglass TV for a night of popcorn and movies.

With Roadford Lake being just a short stroll away there is plenty to do right on your doorstep with water sports, a lakeside walk or a cream tea in the cafe all within easy reach. And for those guests travelling with their four-legged companions in tow, there are many walks to enjoy together with excellent viewing points dotted around the waters’ edge where you'll be able to relax and soak up the peaceful atmosphere.

2nd time visitors to this lodge. In a very quiet area but not far from lots of lovely destinations. We travelled to Plymouth, Bude and Port Isaac and all of them within an hours travel. Lodge is beautifully decorated and kitted out with all the essentials you might need. Lots of lovely touches like blankets, games and of course the bath robes that you need to pay extra for. The Hot tub was the main attraction for us and we did lots of star gazing each night. The hot tub is right outside the main bedroom so if you are a light sleeper like I am, take some earplugs! If you go out venturing make sure to keep to the main roads as our satnav took us down some heart stopping country lanes, especially when you meet a tractor coming towards you on a single lane road! The Sky stream can be temperamental as it relies on WiFi but we have this at home so no surprise to us. Overall, a really lovely lodge, in a beautiful area and well managed .

This was our second time staying at Hawthorne and it was once again lovely. All the amenities you’d need and such a homely feel. My only critique is that you cannot alter the heating temp or when it comes on. Despite that all was great. Will likely return for a third time :)

Hello Shannon, thankyou for your review of Hawthorne Lodge and we are glad you had a lovely time with all of the amenities you needed. The heating is a nest system which you should be able turn up and down yourself. If there were any issues with that we would have loved to help. Best Wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team.

Really nice lodge, the decor was amazing.
We all really enjoyed the hot tub.
Shame the weather wasn’t the best as we didn’t get to go on the lake.
Maybe next time.

Generally the lodge was spotless and a lovely setup - the only issue was the bed. The top pillows smelt strongly of sweat, which is not particularly welcoming after a long day travelling. Luckily there were extra pillows to swap with but it left a negative impression and felt like I was staying at someone's house rather than a guest lodge with clean furnishings. The bed was also very small, would be better with a king size.

The location was perfect, absolutely beautiful location with the lake just minutes away by foot and the cafe food was lovely (highly recommend trying the ice cream!)

The amenities at the lodge were great, there was plenty of room for everything and we enjoyed a relaxing week with our two cocker spaniels.

The site is very quiet, if you allow for the pheasants at 5.20am tapping on the windows looking at themselves. Everything about the lodge was quality but needs a good butter spreading knife.
One or two little things need fixing, like the outdoors umbrella that came crashing down when not in the up position on a day with gusty wind. Just needed a bolt not an old Allen key put in the hole. These things apart the lodge was one of the best we had stayed in. TV in bedroom did not work , would not search and store channels. The on site cafe/restaurant closes at 4pm which is a bit early . Also the access to the cafe needs sorting as disabled people could not use a mobility scooter from the site . Overall for what we paid , it was just about a fair price but if much more had been unusable and having no one manning the reception at all during the day when there should have been someone there I found odd and things could have been resolved easier. Did report things via phone number as advised and told someone would come and sort but never appeared ,again a bit of a red flag to me.

Hi Cyril, thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we are pleased to hear you had a quiet break, but we were sorry to read your feedback and we will be looking into this with the site team. The cafe/restaurant is run as a separate facility to the lodge site and as such we are unable to comment on their opening times or their access, however your comments will be useful for other guests to be aware of. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team.

We loved Hawthorn Lodge, it had everything we needed for a totally relaxing and chilled long weekend break. The location was excellent and our dog loved her walks around the lake. We even had an evening visit from a very handsome male pheasant who tapped on the front door, each evening!

Lodge is excellent, everything you could wish for and more. Air Conditioning in bedrooms was a godsend in the hot weather and heat we experienced while there. Outside area and patio furniture top notch and really comfy. Lodge was spotlessly clean and very spacious, could not fault anything would highly recommend

We went away with parents for a belated Christmas celebration and the lodge provided all the comfort and luxuries promised and is a very impressive place to stay. Great for four adults as the bedrooms were separated in this lodge. Plenty of space and gorgeous decor.
