Maple Lodge at Bridge Lake Farm & Fishery Reviews

Brendan and James were lovely the whole trip very welcoming and helpful. The lodge was absolutely amazing and the hot tub was just perfect. Loved the fishing as well such a lovely place.
We have just come back from a fantastic 3 night stay at maple lodge, what a beautiful place to stay at this time of the year so I can just imagine how beautiful it is in the summer, Brendan text us before arriving to see if we wanted the hot tub heating up for our arrival, Brendan was there to meet us on our arrival and took us down to the lodge, really nice bloke, would recommend to anyone and hopefully be back in the summer.

My partner and I was looking for a relaxing getaway for Christmas. We stayed in Maple lodge, when we arrived it was dark and Brendan said we could drive down to the lodge to unload. It was very well lit up and even Christmas tres lit up around the lake. Which I thought was a lovely touch. The lodge was very comfortable, warm with underfloor heating. Brendan had got the hot tub ready for us we was straight in it. Brendan was always available if you needed anything and a very friendly guy. What Brendan and his family have created at the lake is perfect for a back to nature relaxing getaway. If you are thinking of booking please do as you will not be disappointed. Thank you to all at Bridge Lake Farm keep doing what your doing.
It was a beautiful vacation. The place was comfortable, and the owner of the place was very nice and helpful. Everything was better than expected
My partner and i very much enjoyed our stay here. Clean with most of the essentials. Very cozy, although we wished there were smarter storage built in. A minor issue especially staying for a few days! the hot tub was piping hot when we arrived thanks brendon. we absolutely loved the hot tub with the wonderful view of the lake! Brendon was very helpful and accommodating. we really loved staying here and we will be back! thanks again!! D
My partner and I have just returned home from a 5 night stay in maple lodge, we had a brilliant time. On the morning of our arrival Brendan sent a message offering to heat up the hot tub for us ready to use on our arrival of course we accepted. Brendan was lovely and so helpful, always available if we needed anything and happy to help even when my car battery died one evening he was happy to get the jump cables out and help me. The lake is beautiful and peaceful, we even managed to catch a little common carp in our fishing attempts. The llamas on the farm were lovely and let us pet them with the bribe of feeding them some long grass wed picked. We didnt want to come home and already want to return. Highly recommend.

We stayed at bridge Lake farm for our mini moon it was lovely so peaceful everything is well looked after, greeted from the gate by brendon. He was very friendly and welcoming helped us with our bags from the car to the lodge. We stayed in maple lodge and the view of the lake whilst we ate breakfast etc was just lovely
I booked Maple lodge to celebrate my partners birthday and it truly was an amazing relaxing weekend. The lodge itself had everything you needed. Brendan was a fabulous host very polite and helpful. We loved everything the lake, the lodge and the hot tub. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you I have already recommended to my friends.
Very clean and well maintained property with excellent outdoor space and good fishing. The owner, Brendan, was very helpful and takes a pride in the small complex of lodges. We stayed for a week with mixed weather and felt that the lodge was a little too cramped when the weather prevented use of the outdoor space.
An absolutely beautiful and tranquil holiday lodge, thank you for your hospitality, it was really nice to be welcomed and taken to the lodge and have everything explained to us. Nice friendly family run business
Cassie
We had an amazing stay at Maple lodge and we would love to return one day again in the future. Brendan was very friendly and showed us to our lodge, picking us up in his golf buggy and taking us and our bags to our lodge. Everything was as advertised and just wonderful and relaxing. The hot tub was ready for us on arrival and lovely to relax in whilst looking at the lake. We had a very relaxing stay and I loved having breakfast on our porch in the early morning overlooking at the lake and watching the dragonflies. Any queries we had were resolved straight away by Brendan. We enjoyed walking to the surrounding villages too, all very easy and enjoyable. Would 100 recommend staying here and we hope to return one day soon. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Deanna
The property is equipped with everything you could possibly need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Loved that the hot tub is heated and ready for our arrival. Enjoyed cooking dinner on the bbq and lighting up the fire pit in the evening. Lovely local restaurants. Such beautiful surroundings, So peaceful. Very clean. Owner is very helpful and friendly. Im sure we will visit for a third time at some point in the future. Love this place.
For us this was an excellent holiday choice as it was a beautiful location on a lake and very restful. A big bonus was a cycle path of approximately 3 miles that led to a very famous and popular food hall! The hot tub was also a great asset, after a day of cycling, it was most restorative. It is a very good base for visitng many popular tourist attractions. We would definitely return to the lodge.
Just been on a short break with my girlfriend, couldn't have asked for anything better! Lovely little lodge with all the facilities you need. Beautiful location & we were well looked after by Brendan our host. Will be returning!
What a fantastic getaway we had, everything was ready for our arrival and explanation how to work everything. Such a beautiful location and amazing hosts made our few days for our anniversary perfect!
Just returned from 5 night stay Maple lodge , Bridge lake farm and fishery. What an amazing and relaxing experience the lodge was comfortable with everything you need, from a nice long soak in the hot tub, sitting around the fire pit BBQ or just relaxing on the decking listening to the birds sing, Brendan his family and team have done a great job and are available at any time for any questions Highly recommend
Lesley
Maple lodge was really lovely. Excellent facilities in the lodge with decking , hot tub and fire pit outside to enjoy. Private and romantic. Quite secluded but there are walks to enjoy plus restaurants and pubs also. All details supplied in a handy booklet in the lodge. Very clean. Well maintained site. Would highly recommend for a romantic break.
We had an amazing 2 days , so peaceful and quiet just the relaxing time we needed , the owners were so accommodating and couldn't do enough for us . Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get away and reset and we will definitely be visiting again soon .
What a lovely place! great for wildlife & quiet for getting away from the busy outside world & relaxing with the view over the lake. Brendan keeps the site in perfect order & is always on hand to make your stay comfortable. The cabin was well designed with quality equipment & perfect for two while the hot tub was great in the evenings. Fishing was lively with loads of smaller tench, carp & roach but didn't manage to catch the larger carp. A short walk over the fields to the pretty village led to a good pub with friendly owners while 10min away is the pretty canal village of cropready & 40 min gaydon historic motor museum. Would definitely recommend this property & not hesitate to return.
Fantastic short break. Meeted and greeted on arrival. 'Brendan' was very helpful, knowledgeable and even chauffeured us from the car park to the lodge. The accommodation was spotless and the hot tub was amazing. Would highly recommend, will definitely be returning. Thanks again 'Brendan' Lee

We had a super 5 night stay at Maple Lodge for my husband's 60th Birthday. Everything was just as advertised, the lodge was spotlessly clean and well equipped, down to lovely thick white robes for the hot tub. The setting is stunning and the hot tub and fire pit were a definite asset, enjoyed every evening. My husband fished every day and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, finally catching an elusive carp on his last day! Though you don't need to fish to enjoy your time at Bridge Lake Farm. If you are looking for a calm, chilled, relaxing break away from it all, this is the place to go!
We had the most wonderful stay at Maple Lodge, the setting is beautiful and so tranquil. Our lodge was spotless and had everything we needed during our stay. The bath robes and teacoffeebiscuits were a nice touch too. The fire pit and hot tub were fantastic in such a beautiful setting. Brendan was a great host and was always nearby should you need anything. We wish we could have stayed longer but we will definitely be back. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Weve just got home from the most fantastic 4 days in Maple Lodge! I cannot thank them enough for the extra mile they went to help me get my husbands birthday weekend off to the best start! The lodge was stunning and had everything we needed. Other than an evening to the pub for a birthday dinner we had everything we needed at the lodge and spent everyday in the hot tub. Theres something truly magical about Bridge Lakw, especially sitting in the hot tub watching the rain on the lake or watching the sun rise with a cup of coffee when everything is silent. We had such a fantastic time weve recommended to family and currently looking at a winter weekend stay as we can only imagine how stunning it is in the winter!
Amazing place for a relaxing weekend away. High spec accommodation, friendly and helpful owner who fis everything possible to make our stay fabulous. The hot tub was fantastic and stayed warm for hours. A beautiful part of the world too, would highly recommend.
A very enjoyable and relaxing place to stay the peace and quiet made the break ... A very enjoyable and relaxing place to stay the peace and quiet made the break even better from arrival to departure Brendan was extremely helpful and nothing was to much trouble Keith &terri 28423
Had such a wonderful stay at Maple Lodge! The most relaxing and peaceful couple of days. Would definitely stay again! Definitely recommend
We have just returned from a 5 night stay at Maple Lodge at Bridge Farm and it was truly a 5 star stay. Brendan is an amazing host who could not be more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and he goes over and above to ensure guests have a good stay. The accommodation is well maintained and has everything you need down to your own bath robes. The location is stunning and the perfect peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. We have no hesitation in giving this 1010 and cant wait to go back. Thank you Brendan
We will be back absolutely perfect
Ten reasons to choose Bridge Lake Farm 1. The host faciliated an early check in and preheated the hot tub ready for our arrival. 2. The host provdied a warm greeting on arrival and helped with parking and taking our luggage to the lodge. 3. The lodge had suitable underfloor heating which we could regulate, and that kept us warm when outside temperature was below freezzing. 4. The lake provides a beautiful and relaxing view from the ldoge. 5. Privacy is repspected suitable blides on windows, a curtained gazebo outside and significant space between other lodges. 6. The lodge is close to picturesque local towns. We took advantage of the location and went on day trips to Oxford, Cotswold towns and Bicester shopping villiage. 7. The welcom folder contains infromation about local restaurants, pubs and village walks. We did the 11km pub walk. Please note, if you choose to do this walk not all pubs are open on Mondays and the Plough is no longer a pub and has been converted to a house. 8. The lodge itself is modern. We had access to wifi, Netflix and Prime this meant we didnt struggle with any first world problems. 9. The host was quick to respond to texts, always answered the phone and its clear he loves to make guests feel welcome, and, like us, want to come again. 10. Perfect stay for a romantic getaway or anniversaries.

We really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was beautiful and well set out leading onto the lake. We enjoyed fishing and relaxing we will definitely be returning to stay again.
The whole experience through booking and payement and instructions on arrivaldeparture procedures was excellent. The property was fantastic and extremely clean and well equipped and the setting was delightful and peaceful. On arrival we were met by Brendan who was welcoming,friendly and so efficient. Thanks for a memorable few days. John
Absolutely perfect place to stay exactly as advertised and Brendan is the ideal host no matter what you ask for additional fuel, fire lighters and even down to running us back to car with luggage whilst it was raining nothing is too much . Also the pub in the village has good choice of ales meals and good Sunday roast .Clive&Denise.
Lovely lodge a little on small side but adequate for needs
Wonderful stay at Maple Lodge the place is stunning, relaxing and peaceful. The lake views are breathtaking especially when your relaxing in the Hot Tub. I think this place takes away the stresses of every day life. Maple Lodge was decorated to a high standard. Brendan the owner makes sure your well cared for as soon as you arrive and until you leave.
Absolutely fantastic stay! We have had a really tough couple of months and needed to get away from everything... This was perfect and just what we needed to recharge! A cute hideaway from the rest of the world. The cabin was comfy, clean and modern. The hot tub was huge and easy to use. The setting was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble and you were all so friendly and helpful! Thankyou so very much for such a wonderful stay! We will definitely be coming back again... Hopefully in the winter!

Had an absolutely lovely 4 night break here. Brendan was extremely helpful and attentive if we had any questions, even met us at the car park in his golf cart on our arrival to drive us and our luggage down to the accommodation. Lodge felt very private despite multiple lodges on site we rarely sawheard a soul and being set on the lake had picturesque views. Surrounded by lovely walks around Chacombe, and a short drive to Banbury town although the 30 degree weather prevented as much adventuring as we would've liked. Gorgeous hot tub for evenings when it got a little chilly and the lodge had underfloorheating which although we didn't utilise I imagine it would be very cosy in winter. Really can't complain about anything. The whole stay was magical and we will surely be returning. Thank you Brendan for everything Tamzin and Ellis

Catanger Llama Trekking - NN12 8LJ
about 7 Miles
This is a really unique attraction and certainly worth a visit in our opinion.  Established in 1995 and situated in the heart of the Northamptonshire countryside this attraction will appeal to those looking for something a little different.  You can't ride the animals but you can trek alongside them and enjoy the fantastic scenery.  From farm tracks to country lanes the gentle animals will carry your rucksack for you along the way.  There are personally guided treks available all year round and you will have your own Llama for the trek.
Old Dairy Farm Centre - PO30 2NB
about 12 Miles
Suited to families with children of all ages this is a fantastic attraction in Northamptonshire.  There are many special events held throughout the year so don't forget to check what's happening while you are staying in the region.  Some highlights include the lambing weekends and the monthly local food fayres.
Old Dairy Farm Country Shopping and Craft Centre - LE14 3PF
about 12 Miles
From shopping to home cooked refreshments this is a wonderful day out in the pretty village of Upper Stowe.  You can enjoy amazing views over the Northamptonshire countryside and wander around the complex of stone built farm buildings.  Each building houses something different such as the Occasions Florist, Itsy Bitsy Gifts, Hayrack Gallery and Sheer Delights Lingerie.  When it's time for a rest the Barn Restaurant and Tea Room is the place to go.  There is a small selection of animals at the centre too which younger children will love.  They currently have two Kune Kune pigs, sheep, hens and ducks.  If you are looking for upmarket holiday accommodation in the Northamptonshire area then the luxury lodges at Wicksteed Park are sure to impress.
