Elsa Lodge
Sleeps 4
Hot Tub – Row Boat – Fire Pit and Log Burner – Private Beach – Pet Friendly
A private driveway leads to Elsa, positioned beautifully behind silver birch trees and wildflowers, through which the lake can be enjoyed. This part of the nature reserve has large areas of reed bed which is home to much of our inhabitant wildlife – so keep a look out for the otters and unusual birds. Glass doors open out from the kitchen to the decked veranda, linked by gravel paths through the silver birch trees to a private beach and hanging swing chair. The decking is the perfect place to wine and dine during the day or on a summer’s evening. Sunken into the deck is a steaming Finnish hot tub (optional) where memorable sunrises and evening stargazing can be enjoyed. Complete with private jetty and row boat – thought to be one of the best fishing spots on the lake.
Leading off through the reeds a foot bridge takes you to a private island with beach and raised fire pit. A great place to enjoy the sunset from whilst toasting some marshmallows. This house is near our 4 acre wild flower meadow, great for guests with children, or those seeking a pet friendly holiday cottage with lots of nearby walks.
Inside the cabin is an open plan living area with cosy wood burning stove, dining table and kitchen, all in view of the stunning outlook. The house is furnished in a homely style with beautiful antique furniture and artwork. The cabin has a modern bathroom featuring powerful shower, bath and luxury towels. The open plan English country style kitchen is designed and finished with modern appliances needed to cater for a stylish dinner or a simple meal for two.
