The Perfect Dog Friendly Lakeside Retreat

The Perfect Dog Friendly Lakeside Retreat Beautiful & peaceful pet friendly owner managed lodge with enclosed garden & stunning water’s edge hot tub in the countryside near Stamford, Lincolnshire.
(40)

Extensive decking, & jetty for fishing, & launching kayaks or paddleboards. Book direct & save! We visited Tallington Lakes for the first time in June 2021, and 2 days later bought this brand new lodge. Three weeks after that, our first guests arrived & since then we have been very busy taking bookings and gathering excellent reviews! The lodge is simply in the best location at the top of the bigg

est lake, with fields behind. Parking for 2 cars, and it has excellent enclosed outside space including a grassed garden, a 40 ft wraparound verandah and spacious sun trap decking, there is even a jetty! Dogs welcome, please make sure the size and quantity is suitable. The lodge has 2 bedrooms and a sofa bed, so sleeps 6. Bedroom 1 is a kingsize bed with bathroom ensuite. Bedroom 2 may be set up as a twin or a double, and has easy access to the shower room. Both bedrooms have a TV, and the living area has a 50inch smart TV - no teeny tvs at our lodge! With wifi, and our DVD/Blu Ray collection, you'll be entertained no problem! The kitchen is fully fitted, with oven, hob, microwave, toaster, washing machine, kettle and full size fridge freezer. Many guests have arrived and stayed on site all week, enjoying the panoramic views and watching the wildlife on the lake through the glass panels on the decking. If exploring is your thing, then nearby there is Burghley House, and historic Stamford. A little further, and you'll find Oakham, and Rutland Water. Some guests have even set off early for a day at the seaside, with Heacham beach being the nearest. Personally, we prefer Sheringham or Wells, which are a bit further.

Do you turn over corners?

Wow, it’s bad enough that there are a serious lack of manners but this response on one of my recent posts really takes the biscuit.

I’m either a control freak or a perfectionist. The jury’s out. Either way, it’s you that benefits! Today I’ve been focusing on the porch. I think it’s great, and here’s why.
✅ it exists! When you’re visiting with dogs, a bit of shelter is so useful.
✅ it’s double gated from the drive, perfect for getting shopping in, and keeping dogs safe.
✅ the garden is accessed 1m from the door, so you don’t have to get dressed to send your dogs for a wee.
✅ there’s a storage seat for your shoes, and to sit on to do laces up!
✅ on the hooks, there are leads, umbrellas, and collars with my phone number on.
✅ there’s a shark vacuum if you want to deal with hairs.
Ooh, and your dogs can't run down to the gate to bark!
If you want through access, the seat is easily moved.

If this is just the porch…imagine how good the rest is!

Wahoo! The Retreat now has over 4000 followers! Given that I can only offer around 80 stays a year, that’s 50 years worth of stays. The Retreat will only exist for another 17 years. That’s 2,640 followers who will never get the chance to visit. Don’t be one of them!

Do YOU live in an area on this map?
‘Let’s go to South Lincs’ for a holiday! I don’t think I ever said those words as South Lincs was somewhere we drove through, to get to Norfolk. But now I don’t want anyone to miss out and my days are spent saying ‘Come to South Lincs for a holiday!’. Here’s why:
☀️ easy to reach (1hr 15 ish from Nottingham, Leicester, Rugby, Derby)
☀️ pretty towns and villages (Shop Stamford for independent shopping)
☀️ historic buildings (Burghley House)
☀️ close enough to the sea for a day trip (Hunstanton is 1hr 15)
☀️ fabulous big skies and clean air (the lodge is south facing over the lake)
☀️ independent arts (Tolethorpe, Stamford Arts Centre)
☀️ very dog friendly (10 mins walk to the Lakeside Bar, but pop in the car and you’ve lots of choice)
☀️ plenty of walks (Rutland Water has a 22 mile walk around its perimeter, or you could do the 15 mile ‘short cut’)

All this and I haven’t even told you about the lodge!

With a fab set of 5* reviews, we have many happy guests, so whether you are a couple, a group of friends, or family, there is something here for everyone. Fishing, launching of craft, stunning views front and back, and even an enclosed grassed garden for the furry visitors!

What would you say is the best thing about The The Perfect Dog Friendly Lakeside Retreat ?
Could it be the safe grassed garden for your dogs, or maybe it’s the private hot tub in its own patio, or how about the jetty, for fishing, toe dipping or launching paddleboards? Add spectacular views front and back, parking, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, Wi-Fi, free Netflix…..even air conditioning and you’ll realise why we are pretty full with all 5 🌟 reviews!

Oh Martin. I think he’s talking about big travel firms, rather than individuals like me, but I would be bankrupt in no time! What do YOU think about cancelling a holiday when you see it reduced, and immediately re-booking at the lower price?

Martin Lewis has shared a great way to drive the cost of your hotel or holiday down - cancel it.

Oh wow! I was approached in May by Andrea from Headlines Journalism - Andrea McHugh about featuring in Britain’s top selling dog magazine, Your Dog. I thought it would be a teeny mention, but it’s a 2 page spread, and the article sums up The Retreat very well. 😀

Do you write reviews? I always ask guests to write a review, but I think everyday life takes over and it slips through the net. I think reviews are great, as it’s real people summarising the best features of their stay, and that’s useful to you and to me. I’m really hoping that one day the 100% is matched by 100 reviews, but for now, I’m loving that 50! Spread the word: you get money off if friends book a full priced stay and mention you.

The Retreat welcomed its first guests 3 years ago today - and how it has changed in that time! New flooring, new curtains, new blinds, countless sets of bedding, many coats of paint until it was just right, units removed and improved, lighting replaced, a porch, fabulous fencing, a hot tub, air con, quality outdoor furniture, a canopy, eco friendly benches….plus the reluctant replacement of 3 chairs which were damaged, and we are also on the 3rd TV after 2 were broken!
A massive THANK YOU to everyone who has stayed, written reviews, and told friends and family about us: The Retreat is what it is because of YOU!

Communicated with a lovely person last night who was so happy when she asked if she could bring this bunch to the lodge, and I said YES , and no charge! Not so happy when she realised we are pretty full for this summer. But all ends well as she's booked in for August 2025! And I am sooo looking forward to meeting them all.
With a £200 deposit you can book your stay, AND pay in instalments to spread the cost 😀
