Riverside Lodge Reviews

Howard

As stated when we first arrived and were shown around Riverside Lodge wonderful accommodation in an ideal location.

Laura

We have a girlie weekend away every year and have been really impressed by our venue choice this time. We were only 30 minutes from home but felt like we could have been miles away. The lodge is beautiful. For a group of 6 of us we all felt comfortable and had plenty of space. We loved the open plan kitchen/dining/seating area all looking out on a Read morefabulous view. We had great weather for October so were even able to eat outside. Will look forward to hopefully coming again. Hide

Stuart

Location, location, location. Perfectly set on the River Ribble which is spectacular. In the middle of nowhere but at the same time only six miles to Tesco and the Deepdale centre. Lots of small roads to wander down from the property, even better if you like cycling on country roads with little traffic. Lots to do in the area, we went to Gisburn FoRead morerest for a walk and it also boasted a MTB centre. Had an amazing meal in the Bowland Beer Hall (an old cotton mill) at Holmes Mill in Clitheroe.

Fabulous holiday accommodation in such a beautiful and relaxing spot. The hot tub was very pleasant and having the pool table was fun too.

This was the perfect getaway for us for the weekend. We were greeted on arrival and shown around the property and the pictures dont do it justice.

We enjoyed our stay, the lodge is comfortable and spacious and set in beautiful surroundings, perfect to sit back and relax

Roy

What can we say, it is a stunning , well equipped property in a private and beautiful riverside location. The owners Marilyn and Geoff were very friendly and helpful but without being intrusive. It is a place where you could just stay all day and relax whilst watching the river and other wonderful wildlife or go and explore an incredible area, know ing that on your return to the lodge you can unwind in the sunken hot tub and enjoy the lovely scenery and a barbecue.

Jane

Riverside Lodge is a well designed, luxurious house on the bank of the river Ribble with lovely views from the deck and lounge. Comfortable beds, good-quality bed linen, comfortable sofas - the owners have thought of everything. The kids loved the pool room! This was our second holiday here, and we had a great time. Thank you!

Jonathan

We really enjoyed our stay at Easter time. The property has everything you could need and is in such a beautiful, quiet location by the river. It was very cosy, warm (particularly the under floor heating) and everything worked very well. The owners have provided everything you could need just turn up with some food an swimwear and you are away. We had a walk in the nearby field at dusk and were lucky enough to spot a barn owl.

Lucy

Absolutely stunning lodge! The photos do not do it justice it is truly a beautiful space. The host was amazing and could not do more for us and had thought of everything ahead of our stay. Including dressing gowns to use the hot tubs and a gorgeous cake! We felt really welcomed. Check-in and out was also very easy. Excellent value for money. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area

Carol

Amazing,everything catered for and thought of. Will be returning

Lisa

Riverside Lodge is beyond perfect. If you are looking at this review you had better press the confirm button quickly, before someone else does! We stayed for Christmas 2022 and went to book for Christmas 2023 whilst we were there, sadly for us it was already booked. We have a great stay at this amazing luxurious and spacious property. The main room was very toasty and cosy, bedrooms were beautifully decorated, outside space was a delight, sipping champagne in hot tub listening to the river, ah

Jane

Fantastic property. Hight specification...thoughtfully equipped..spotlessly clean. Special touches like fizz choccies and cakes on arrival. Stunning peaceful location.

Michael

What a great stay, we took time to kick back and just chill out for a few days. I could have spent hours just looking out at the views. All in perfect silence from the beautiful main reception room, or while enjoying a nice glass of wine from the hot tub. I will definitely recommend it to our friends and we hope to get back ourselves one day. Thank s again Marilyn & Geoff, great hosts.

Abraham

We had an amazing week. The owners were always available for all we needed and more.... The lodge is beautiful, comfortable, clean and spacious, including a very good games room. The views from the lodge are stunning!! We really enjoyed relaxing and watching the views and the wildlife in the nearby fields and river whilst relaxing on the deck or in the amazing hot tub. This was the perfect place for a secluded, relaxing, peaceful & comfortable getaway. We would love to come back! Thank you

A beautiful lodge in a stunning location with views to die for! The wildlife was amazing. Roe deer swimming across the river, Herons, Little Egrets, Canada geese, Woodpeckers - Green and Great Spotted and a Nuthatch to name a few! The welcome gifts were lovely and much appreciated!
