Parking is a short walk from the parking area - max 400 meters from car - trolleys are available to assist with taking your belongings to your accommodation - but given that guests access their lodges via a raised board walk, we are unable to offer parking near the accommodation to save for the environment and biodiversity surrounding the lakes. This also includes the woodland lodges - they are a short walk to their accommodation in to the woodland area - again access via a raised board walk but max walking distance is about 100 meters or so.

Due to the exciting developments on site, we will be soon upgrading all our central services including our cafe area. Unfortunately for the moment (excluding peak times such as October half term / Christmas) the cafe will remain closed.

We are fortunate to have some lovely local pubs and farm shops all serving quality food in the near vicinity as well as well stocked supermarkets within a 5/10-minute drive. There are also take aways that deliver to site, so hopefully that covers all basis while the cafe is closed.

There may be some temporary disruptions due to essential maintenance work for the purpose of development and expansion of the park for new Lodges to be sited.

These works are scheduled to take place from Monday 3rd November until Thursday 20th November inclusively, between the hours of 10 am - 4pm not including weekends. However there may be circumstances beyond my control that work may need to exceed outside of these times.

While we are taking every possible step to minimize any inconvenience, there may be some noise during these times. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to improve our site and facilities for your future comfort.
