Lovely lodge on the lake. We had everything we needed in the lodge and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Fishing is charged extra which we didn't know till we arrived. The bed was very comfy and the shower was powerful. We had mixed weather but felt warm and and then cool on warmer days. We only ventured out to the local pub for Sunday lunch but it was Read moreworth a visit. we walked round the other lakes which were very nice and one even had a toilet building which I thought was very useful. They had started building a new lodge on our lake but didn't really interfere with our time at the lake. All in all, we enjoyed our break and would return in the future. Hide

Stayed for a week at Frog Lodge for the wife's birthday treat can honestly say we both loved it the lodge is so close to the lake and your own private fishing area as you walk out the door it's in front of you. The lodge is ideal for 2 people with full amenities and oh so cosy. The weather we had was fantastic which for March was very good sunshineRead more for most of our holiday. About 3 miles south of Ludlow which is a cracking Town to visit with lots of shops and markets. They are building a brand new 1 bedroom lodge on the same Lake for this summer and no doubt it will be very good indeed there are 2 two bedroom lodges on one of the other lakes which are also brilliant. The views the wildlife and the setting are second to none would go back in an instant. Only fished on our Lake but the fishing was first class. Caught Carp Roach Perch bream Gudgeon and Rudd. Thank you for one of the best holiday's yet can not wait to go back. Hide

We spent a delightful couple of days at Frog Lodge over New Year. We really couldn't fault it, it was so cosy, despite the sub zero temperatures outside.
