About Lodge 24

Lodge 24 sits on Thorpe Park in Lincolnshire, a modern lakeside retreat that delivers comfort in spades. This spacious four-bedroom lodge offers stunning lake views and excellent fishing opportunities right on your doorstep. Perfect for families or groups looking to escape without actually roughing it.

Set in the peaceful village of Thorpe-on-the-Hill, this spot gives you the best of both worlds. Quiet enough to hear yourself think but close enough to civilization that you won't go mad. Whisby Nature Park is practically next door, offering beautiful walks where you can pretend to be interested in wildlife while secretly checking your phone. The historic city of Lincoln is just a short drive away with its impressive cathedral and castle.

The accommodation is seriously impressive. Four bedrooms sleep eight people comfortably – one king-size, two doubles (one with balcony access) and one twin. Two bathrooms mean morning queues won't get too hostile. The open-plan living area with underfloor heating is perfect for group gatherings and the kitchen comes fully equipped with everything including a dishwasher (because nobody wants to wash up on holiday).

Lincoln Cathedral stands majestically just 6 miles away (15-minute drive). Whisby Nature Park offers gorgeous walking trails only 1 mile from your door. Lincoln Castle (6 miles, 15 minutes) houses one of only four remaining copies of the Magna Carta. The Museum of Lincolnshire Life (6 miles, 15 minutes) showcases the county's rich agricultural and military history.

Lodge 24 is ideal for multi-generational families or friends who want quality time together but with enough space not to kill each other. The private hot tub is the cherry on top – nothing says "I'm on holiday" like sitting in bubbling water with a drink while judging the neighboring lodges.

Lodge 24 Reviews

Weve just got back from a lovely stay in lodge 24. This was by far one of the nicest lodges weve stayed in so far and would definitely stay again. If I could recommend any changes to improve it they I would be a shower in the upstairs bathroom, a bigger bed in the balcony bedroom, a lock on the downstairs bathroom and a door installed to block off the living room to the downstairs bedrooms to keep the noise out.
Anthony
Accommodation was absolutely fantastic. Was as described in the listing, modern with all facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We only encountered a couple of minor issues 1 Heating upstairs Radiators depsperately need bleeding as only the very bottom gets warm. Not ideal when is cold and windy. 2 Plug got stuck in the bath upstairs and we were unable to drain the water, leaving us unable to use the bathshower upstairs. We would not let this affect anything to do with our break as we still had a great time and would recommend this lodge to all our friends.
Elliott
We had a great time at lodge 24 and would highly recommend it to our friends! We would most definitely come again! Could improve again with covering the hot tub and putting in some bigger beds. But other than that our stay was faultless.
Belinda
The lodge was everything we expected clean spacous, fab location and the hot tub was a lovely bonus. The reason for low scoring on cleanliness was due to us finding dirty plates, mugs, cutlery and saucepans. The plates had food on them the mugs were stained and two had large cracks going down the side. The saucepans were black obviously been burnt whilst cooking and needed replacing. I feel from a health perspective this was not satisfactory and was not happy to have to put everything in the dishwasher before it could be used. This is not a good start to a holiday. I am assuming we pay for a cleaner within price of the holiday and this should be something they check! The helpline was a waste of time it took 4 days for someone to message back. Promised a number to call ....there was no number! Such a shame as the lodge, locationhot tub were fab. Would recommend just hope cleaning has been completed for you on your arrival.
Christine
Such a lovely Lodge. It was spotlessly clean when we arrived. Cupboards well stocked with crockery, pots and pans etc. Beds were very comfortable. Main living area was very spacious with plenty of seating. Hot tub was well maintained and temperature was perfect. We have booked again for next year.
Carole
The property was ideal, my complaint is the misleading location. It isn't in South Hykeham with a shop and pub 0.3 miles away, it's in Thorpe on the Hill the other side of a busy A46 with no shop and pub a good 30 mins walk away!! Only little grumble is shower and baths were quite slippy but we didn't have bath mats.
Steven
Great property in an idyllic location, has everything you need for an enjoyable holiday. Close to Whisby nature park ideal for nice walks.
Michelle
Perhaps some more mugs and tumblers as there were 8 of us. Very comfortable and we had a lovely stay, a beautiful lodge and great to have a utility room.

This was a really relaxing weekend for us, we took our mum who is 98 for a break away and she really enjoyed it, the outlook across the lake was lovely, and the place was lovely and clean, beds were comfortable and everything worked, would recommend
Lodge 24 was just perfect for me and my friends, we could not fault the cleanliness, the location, the peace and quiet, the hot tub and the size of the rooms. The kitchen had all the facilities we would expect for 8 people and the welcome bottle of Prosecco was most unexpected, but greatly appreciated. Unfortunately the TV connection was a bit hit and miss, Im not sure if that was down to the wifi but it was difficult to watch any films without it buffering. Plus only 1 shower for 8 of us was challenging, there was 2 bathrooms however the 2nd one only had a bath with a shower head on the wall, we found there was plenty of room in both bedrooms upstairs where a shower room could be converted in 1of the walk in wardrobes just a suggestion We all said we would definitely stay again, Amazing!
Lodge was lovely, had everything you need to enjoy a short stay. Paul and Chris were on hand if we needed anything. Had a small issue with the heating and was solved within a few hours. Upstairs bathroom door hook needs to change, its to short, flooring in between bathroom and kitchen is lipping up and one of the spot lights in the downstairs bedroom is hanging out, all of which Im sure both Paul and Chris can fix. This lodge is highly recommended to anyone looking to take their children, my children enjoyed it so much that they want to rebook for the summer.
Fabulous lodge! Immaculate and comfortable! Love the under floor heating, beds very comfortable and hot tub amazing!!

The inside of the dishwasher was already broken the attachment the door handle was loose and snapped off, the door kept getting stuck. the washing machine didn't run properly and there was a massive mark along the wall near the table. the lodge was lovely and i would stay again, few minor issues stated above, besides that we had an incredible stay.
Our lodge was really lovely. We all had a great time. The facilities were great. Everything you needed and more was provided. I would definitely recommend it. The only criticism I would give is that the hot tub was a little scummy on the seats but the water was clean. The rug and sofa in the main room was a littledirty with dried grass and crumbs so we had to hoover them when we arrived, but I think this was an oversight as everything else was clean. Otherwise I would have marked this 5 instead of 4, but it would not stop me returning as everything else was lovely.
Abigail
We had an amazing stay. It is a beautiful lodge that is very spacious. The hottub was great and almost ready when we arrived they clean it after each stay, so had to wait for it to heat up. Waking up to looking over the small lake was just perfect, as was the ability to fish. It is well situated to access Lincon and Newark. However, there were a couple of niggles the lodge sleeps 8 people but there is only enough sofa space for 4 people 6 if you want to be squashed! So 4 of us ended up sitting on the bar stools or at the dining table, not very relaxing as we stayed for 6 days. The oven only had one shelf the pan set was small and there were only a couple of small baking trays, which made it difficult to cater for us all. This is personal preference! Overall, I would highly recommend this property you will not be disappointed.

Very nice property,heating was bit of a challenge but otherwise enjoyable weeks stay ,hot tub was a big hit cleaned regularly would recommend this for a relaxing break and may consider returning even though we like to try different places ,definitely in our top 3
Nicola
We absolutely loved our stay in Lincolnshire. My elderly father loved the fishing, it was incredible. Just what we all needed. The cottage was super lovely. The only criticism I have is that the bed in the master bedroom was quite small and there was no ensuite. We also couldn't watch the rugby as the TV wasn't working properly. I did however report this and the ladies were super helpful. It was a wonderful weekend. Thank you, Nicola
Jeffrey
Firstly i would have liked more info about the fishing ahead of arrival, however as this turned out it was fantastic. Lodge 24 is amazing and was only let down in my opinion by not having an enclosed deck area so my dog Cockapoo could wander around when the doors were open without visiting adjacent lodges! But the neighbor's were all ok with his visits, some even giving him treats, but this would not deter me from revisiting. On arrival we had a welcome pack and everything was relatively clean and tidy. The main downside i noticed was a lot of fruit flies and spiders in the downstairs bathroom and corner of the lounge where the floor lamp was. Also the microwave and oven were a nightmare to figure out how to operate. They were both great equipment, however operating even the basic functions was arduous. Aside from the above all i would ask is that the hot tub area have better privacy screening as the current lattice screens do not offer much privacy. I also thought it strange that an 8 person lodge only had one under counter fridge in the kitchen and was expecting to find a freezer somewhere. Despite checking all the units i figured they didn't have one as most visitors wouldn't need any frozen food. It was only on checking out i found a floor to ceiling fridge freezer in the utility room lol. I swear i looked there too.... Anyway, Lodge 24 is exceptional and very well appointed throughout and i will hopefully return soon.
Stewart
We had a lovely stay, the lodge was very spacious and comfortable and have no complaints. The only issue we had was with the hot tub which had tripped but after a quick call was very quickly fixed. We would happily stay here again. Thank you.
Denise
Lovely property, recently refurbished to a high standard. One slight annoyance, after the maintenance man came to the hot tub and put in an extension lead, the hot tub didn't heat up enough for it to be used on our last night. Other than that it was fab.
Had an excellent stay, very comfortable and nice surroundings, quiet and tranquil, lodge was clean and tidy with all amenities that you would require for your stay. Not too far from Lincoln high street, if you want to pop out. Asda very close by for shopping if required. Only wish had booked a longer stay.
Shabnam
Lodge was at a beautiful relaxing location which was very well maintained Lodge in general was spacious and clean My children did not want to leave Everything was available in the lodge and the hot tub was amazing and enjoyed fully The only thing we would have loved was to have had a bit more for the kids to enjoy on site but other then that it was a lovely holiday and I have recommended to many. Easy access and checking in and checking out too
