This was our third visit to the Roadford Lake site and our first visit to Heron lodge. We had high expectations having stayed at Snowdrop lodge next to it the previous year. Thankfully our expectations were met, the lodge is beautifully turned out and there was a lovely welcome pack waiting for us (the lemon biscuits were exceptional). We will defiRead morenitely be returning to Roadford Lake in the near future and I would love to stay in Heron Lodge again. For anyone who books it you won't be disappointed. Hide

We had such a wonderful stay at Heron Lodge, Roadford Lake Lodges. The lodge was beautifully presented and well equipped. The position was gorgeous with field views which was appreciated while in the hot tub. We had some wonderful walks around Roadford Lake and enjoyed the cafe quite a few times. No need to travel anywhere really in the car once Read morethere but we did venture into Okehampton and Bude which both are worth visiting. Hide
