• "This is our second visit to Butterfly Lodge and we really love it."

  The setting by the side of the lake is beautiful and so is the lodge itself. The beds and chairs are really comfortable which is a big consideration for us. We especially like the electric reclining sofa and chair, although the chair wasn't working this visit which was a shame. The groundsmen are good and look after the area really well, including refilling the bird feeders outside which were visited by many birds...plus a cheeky squirrel who actually lifted the lid of and feeder to help himself to food!. The welcome gifts were a lovely touch, which included Prosecco and cookies although our cats weren't too impressed with the dog treats

  I have been in contact with Sykes as I have left an item of clothing in a wardrobe but still awaiting a reply 5 days later.

• "This was our 2nd visit to Butterfly Lodge."

  We had a lovely stay, still a nice view overlooking the small lake from the enclosed decking . Loved the welcome pack left for us and our 2 dogs. Thank you. We were little bit disappointed with the following few issues we found , 1)the drip tray and the oven door was full of grease. 2) the bottom of the recycling bins we dirty, one bin even had a pair of slippers left in the bottom.3) The little bin outside the front door hasn't been emptied. 4)The hot tub didn't seem to be working properly. Even though we could still used it. 5)We thought that some of leaflets information were a bit out of date These issues don't ruin our stay. We found the 2 maintenance guys on site were very helpful, freindy, approachable and very polite. We would book again.

  The welcome gifts were much appreciated. It has everything you need. It is a home from home. We are back again in November and July 2025. Our dogs really enjoyed it and the guts loved the fishing. Perfect location close to shops and great walks.

• "We chose this lodge because of the reclining armchair."

  My wife has health and mobility issues and needs to keep her legs elevated. Unfortunately it wasn't working due to the mains adapter not being present in the lodge. Also one of the frying pans needs replacing as the handle is loose. Other than that the lodge is perfect and ticks every box for us and we will return.

• "Loved the lodge and the site."

  Liked the kitchen, but wasn't tall enough to reach the cooker hood. Think a new toaster would be a good idea as only one side lifts up. Minor points, but would certainly book again.

• "Had a lovely stay."

  Property was lovely and homely. Husband enjoyed the fishing and the ground keeper, Paul, was friendly and helpful. Very peaceful and relaxing. Only a suggestion but not a real issue was the oven was requesting a cleaning cycle and some sharp knives would be helpful. But it didn't affect our stay and we will definitely go back. Would definitely recommend.

  Had absolutely everything you needed. I would 100% return. What would of been useful was some little pots of shampoo and conditioner as we did forget those so maybe something on the wall in the showers would be helpful. Could not find the wifi password so signal was a pain sometimes (but again it would not stop be coming back) The photos of this property do not do it justice i would definitely put better photos online to draw people in

• "Butterfly Lodge is absolutely lovely."

  Very comfortable, has everything you need for your stay, although could have done with some nice plastic wine glasses for the hot tub. Didn't give full marks for cleanliness as there was a dirty glass left down the side of the settee. No other issues though. Plenty of pubs close by to eat out. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the fishing, was in double figures every day. Biggest carp caught was 10lb 9oz.

• "I can highly recommend this beautiful lodge."

  It is well equipped and spacious. The fishing was most enjoyable. Great dog walking at Wisby nature reserve. Shops, pubs and everything you need is near by. There are a few things which need attention. The double bed leg supports need repairing, the extraction fan in the twin ensuite doesn't work. We had issues with the shower thermostat but I know this is being sorted out. Due to the above I had to give 4 stars but once these are done it would definitely be 5 stars. Overall a wonderful lodge, home from home. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have already booked for 2024.

  Thanks for your feedback, we take all feedback seriously. The bed supports have now been repaired and the extractor fan in the second bedroom has been replaced. The shower has also been repaired. Great to hear you have booked again for next year and hopefully you won’t have any issues on your next stay. Property Owner

  Very dissapoonted.

  Thanks for your feedback, we take all feedback seriously. We’re sorry to hear that you feel the lodge was overpriced and you had issues with the bed. If you’d reached out to us during your stay then we could have addressed these issues and improved your stay whilst you were there. We have now visited the lodge and there was an issue with the leg supports on the bed, this issue has now been rectified. The BBQ has now been removed and the hoover has been serviced. Hopefully the changes we have made will help future guests have an enjoyable stay. Property Owner

• "The lodge was very comfortable, but we downgraded to 4 stars due to a collection of small issues."

  For instance the cutlery wasn't very clean on arrival. The crockery has a number of chips in plates and rims of beakers. The hot tub is showing its age and the jets either wouldn't work or would start and then couldn't be switched off, despite attention from the on-site chap. The vacuum cleaners hadn't been emptied in ages and are totally clogged. The lounge rug was very dirty and a mass of white dog hairs, so we didn't feel that the lodge had been well prepared.

  Thanks for your feedback, we take all feedback seriously and have now visited the lodge and addressed the above issues. We have replaced all of the chipped crockery and will try to ensure any newly chipped crockery is replaced as soon as possible. The cleaners have been spoken to about the above issues and they will be taking extra care to ensure this doesn't happen in the future. The vacuum cleaner has been serviced and will be checked by the cleaners in the future. We are looking to replace the broken jets on the hot tub and give it a service. We hope the above didn't effect your stay too much and hopefully the changes we have made will improve things for future guests. Property Owner

• "We enjoyed our stay very much, was a beautiful lodge and lovely surroundings."

  The only thing we would like to suggest is the nearest pub which was 0.4 miles away as advertised was not really accessible across the carriageway for walking. We did find the local pub in the village "The Railway Inn" 25 mins walk and was very accommodating. Also just a tiny, tiny thing both our toilets were not really working that well, the buttons seem to have disconnected slightly but overall we loved it and so did our dogs - the lodge was very well equipped for dogs and families including all accessories - would recommend highly A*

  There is lots of walks in near by Wispy Park and my dog enjoyed swimming in the lake, also loads of places to visit with Lincoln on your doorstep.

• "We enjoyed our stay at butterfly Lodge."

  Everything we needed was their a real home from home. Lovely comfy sofa and soft furnishings with an added hot tub.( we would recommend a further willow fence for privacy when using it as next door if using thier decking makes it not private for either loges) but we did not have this issue while we stayed. Great place to visit lincoln from and we recommend the castle , cathedral and the cities independent shops. Doddington Hall and farm shop also great place and is 5 minutes away, local produce is top notch. We loved the location and the lodge and would certainly recommend it and return again. Thank you to the owners for sharing their place and allowing dogs into the home which is always a big plus for us.

• "Lovely lodge well appointed and comfortable, we had a very pleasant stay with the exception of the weather."

  Lovely position over looking the lake, especially liked the bird feeding station outside the window attracting a plethora of wild birds. Couple of observations that may be of interest to the owners (These are not complaints) 1. Decking where subject to rain is covered with green slime which is like an ice skating rink when wet (which it was for 5 of the days we were there) really really needs a good power wash to avoid possible falls and slips. 2. Flush mechanism in twin bedroom toilet needs attention as does not work well and extractor fan in ceiling has a hard time starting and extracting air probably needs a clean! Will definitely like to return for another stay during summer time.

  Everything has been very well thought out, for a truly memorable experience, I can see that a lot of hard work has gone into making sure that the guests stay in a home from home.

• "Excellent holiday property in a great location."

  The downside is the property is advertised with fishing included. But there is nowhere provided to store fishing tackle and bait. Also required is a proper information pack in one folder with all the relevant information required inside. Existing information is one folder containing oven hob and microwave instructions, plus one half of a note pad sheet with address and wi-fi password written very lightly in pencil. We found another folder hidden away in the cleaning cupboard with the hot tub instructions in that.
