Snaptrip says
Lakeside View is a well-received holiday lodge in Norfolk, praised for its pristine condition, comfortable furnishings, and tranquil location. Guests enjoyed the beautiful lake views, the addition of a hot tub, and the peaceful atmosphere. The property is well-equipped, though some noted the need for essentials due to the remote location. While most feedback is positive, there was an isolated incident regarding ants that affected satisfaction.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The lodge generally receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning its pristine condition. However, one review cited an issue with ants, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is consistently described as beautiful, quiet, and peaceful, with fabulous lake views. It is within easy reach of local attractions, contributing to a high score.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of comfy beds and a tranquil environment. One review noted the bed was too low and small for disabled guests, which slightly impacts the score.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with the hot tub being a highlight. Some reviews suggest the site's amenities appear old and worn, and there was a mention of a maintenance issue that was quickly resolved.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the host, so it is not possible to assess this category accurately.

With a hot tub. The first day we were there the gas actually ran out mid shower, and whilst we were cooking, which was a complete nightmare! After some time we realised what it was and my partner managed to figure out how to change the gas bottle. We did report this and the next day had spoken to the owner who was very apologetic. They also came out to check everything was working properly and also check the hot tub. It was nice having a lake on the front door, However their facilities are quite run down and in need of a refurb! The weather unfortunately wasnât that kind to us which was disappointing as apart from walks and the scenery, there isnât much to do there. The nearest shop is an 18 minute drive away. Overall we had a nice stay, it was a quiet and peaceful location, it was really nice to chill and unwind. Thank you

Absolutely silent at night, and lovely to be watching the jet skis during the day. Nearest shop is about 15 minutes drive but very limited in supply - supermarket is kings lynn so a bit of a trek. Pub is available up the road. jacuzzi and privacy shade (that was not really needed!) and gazebo cover essentially made the jacuzzi all-weather, which was a spectacular experience. supplied goods include all the essentials (washing up liquid, saucepans, frying pan, bleach, shower cleaner, etc, etc, etc). Only request would have been for a hoover as there was some dirt we couldn't clean otherwise! now i know where it is, it is easy to get back to, and will definitely want to be returning.

Very peaceful to stay, the lodge and hot tub made the stay more inviting. Not a great deal on the site, but lovely countryside walks around the area. Ideal to visit the many places in North Norfolk. Probably a lot busier in the Summer when there is water ski ing on the adjacent lake. Although their facilities look old and worn. A nice club house, although small felt a bit like an old cricket club. They did have a singer on the Saturday night but we did not attend even though we could hear in the distance but it was not a problem. Would recommend to someone who wants a nice quiet break and to be in that area to visit Norfolk. Fishing is on site but you have to walk around to another lake. Nice approachable owners.
