Heron Lodge, spacious and contemporary, with a uniquely private and enclosed outside space is ideal if you have children or dogs, with charming sunny views across open fields. Set within the exclusive Roadford Lake Lodge Park, it’s just a leisurely 2-minute stroll down a wooded path to the water’s edge, playpark, and café.

Your south-facing enclosed patio is tucked away from others, for private outdoor living. Enjoy lazy sunny meals, unwind in your concealed sun-drenched hot tub or gaze in the evenings at a star-filled sky.

Inside, the open-plan sitting and dining area has high-quality furnishings, plush sofas, a log-effect electric fire and generous dining room table. Stream movies on the large Smart TV with superfast Wi-Fi, connected to a soundbar and speaker or use it for music. At the heart of Heron Lodge is a hi-spec and well-equipped kitchen for fabulous feasts. Three splendid bedrooms await you, tastefully decorated, offering generous wardrobe space and individual smart TVs. The master bedroom features a king-sized bed with its own ensuite and deluxe walk-in shower. The two twin bedrooms share a large stylish family bathroom.

As a guest, you'll have access to an exceptional gym, open daily, free of charge. There's a dedicated dog-wash station for muddy paws and two EV charging points.

The natural beauty of Roadford Lake is just a stone’s throw away offering walking and biking trails, picnic spots and fishing. The nearby water sports centre has kayaking, wing surf/foil, canoeing, paddle-boarding, mega SUP, sailing as well as climbing, high ropes and archery. Lodge guests, enjoy a special discount. The Roadford Café with children’s play park is a 2-minute walk, and there’s also a dedicated dog walk area for off-the-lead exercise. The perfect escape for a peaceful Devon holiday.

We can not fault our stay at Heron Lodge. It is an immaculately presented lodge, with everything needed for a relaxing break. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well appointed. We absolutely loved the sunny patio area and the hot tub was a huge hit for all ages. The park itself was well tended and quiet. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Heron Lodge and hope to visit again soon.

The lodge and the park was lovely for most of the week. Then a family arrived towards the end of the holiday and we were glad to be leaving. Kids shouting and screaming in the hot tub at 8am wasn't the sort of thing I would've expected at this location. We did look into buying a property whilst were there but changed our mind.

We booked Heron Lodge for a week with the intention of working remotely for 2 day. Broadband excellent so that plan worked well. The lodge is beautifully fitted out, lots of good quality crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. The hot tub is private, looking out onto a field for great sunsets. The site itself is well laid out and immaculate, with easy access to the nearby reservoir. We would absolutely recommend this lodge.

These lodges and the area are lovely. The weather for us could have been better but it’s the uk I suppose.our lodge was very clean with a private patio area with the hot tub. My only gripe is the site has only two EV charging points which was an issue for me and you have to travel quite a distance for me anyway to visit places.

We stayed with our rescue dog for a week in July the lodge was amazing, so well equipped and the owners had thought of everything even down to doggy treats. The hot tub and enclosed garden allowed us to relax without worrying where our dog was and the view over the meadow was beautiful.
The site was great so peaceful and private couldn't have asked for more from the location with the woods and lake literally on the doorstep peaceful walks in the beautiful woods .... Amazing
If the opportunity arises we'd be back 100%

Beautifully furnished yet homely lodge. Lots of space, everything you need, and very clean. Hot tub is a lovely luxury too. You need a car as it is a bit remote from anywhere.

This was our second visit to the site and our first to Heron Lodge. The site is easily and quickly accessible from the A30. The lodges nestle adjacent to Roadford lake and there are plenty of walks around the lake for those who enjoy the outdoors and a place to exercise the dogs. The lodge itself was pristine in its cleanliness, which is no mean feat when it is dog friendly, the standard of the interior fixtures/fittings are to a high standard and the kingsize bed was a clincher when shortlisting suitable lodges. Add to that the hot tub and the general feeling that the lodge itself was not excessively overlooked, the rear of the lodge not at all so, it made for a sense of seclusion and privacy. The only thing I missed were the cows and sheep that were in the field behind the lodge last time we were on site. The daily visit from the pheasant made up for their absence! I cannot recommend highly enough the site and in particular this lodge, I think we have found our new ‘home from home’ and hope to be back again!

Had a lovely time at Heron Lodge. Roadford Lake is a beautiful location, great walks and plenty of water sport opportunities. Well placed for visiting many Devon attractions. The lodge itself was comfortable and well appointed. It was spacious and had a great outlook over fields. The hot tub was an added bonus and very private. Great out side patio which was quite secure for our dog. Despite the wet weather at times a lovely place to stay. Great cafe in walking distance with amazing views.
Couldn’t fault it. Great to have access to EV charging.

I was pleasantly surprised with the overall experience, communication and care from booking with Luxury Coastal and with the owners too - from start to finish.

The accommodation I chose carefully being on a site that is open plan with other lodges. I wanted a little more privacy, with less footfall of people where you are not over looked, and privacy with the hot tub and more of a secure garden as having a pet dog. Number 10 - Heron Lodge was perfect and did not disappoint in any way. It really is a warm, cosy, inviting in a sense of luxury with home from home experience with everything to hand, even pet bowls catered for too, with a couple of low fitted windows which my dog enjoyed sitting there having her own views.... lol..and great area for walks

Beds are extremely comfortable, and all linens are to a high standard. The single bedrooms are very spacious compared to other properties I viewed. The hot tub is also to a high standard, at the back of the property and with privacy, over looking fields, other lodges can be at the front and viewable with passing people.

I did meet the head groundsman and the maintenance man for the Hot tubs, very attentive and go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable and trouble free...
I also spoke directly with the owners to thank them personally for creating a lovely environment for people to stay, and to thank them for a lovely Hamper they supplied. They genuinely come across as wanting their accommodation to be meeting our expectations of guests to be a great break - of which is was 10 out of 10

Waking around the grounds of the complex, and having more knowledge I would still choose Heron lodge, NO' 10 to book again

We stayed in Heron Lodge during the summer, we had a fantastic stay, we couldn’t have asked for more. The booking process was quick and easy and the owners were so accommodating and kind. We’ve never stayed in a more equipped lodge. The location is stunning and there is so much to do within a 1 hour radius. We can’t wait to return.

I booked a stay at Heron Lodge as a big birthday gift for my husband’s 40th. We had a wonderful long weekend. The weather was awful, but it didn’t matter in the slightest! Between the hot tub and the wonderfully cosy lodge, we couldn’t have asked for anything more!
