Westwood Lakes

Westwood Lakes is a peaceful wooden lodge retreat in Lincolnshire.

Surrounding three man made lakes, each lodge has a decking area overlooking the water, which is beautiful at night with the lodge lights flickering off the lake.  We especially enjoyed sitting in our hot tub (available in the VIP lodges) looking out at the stars.

We were greeted, shown into our lodge and given a full tour.  There was a small mix up with the patio door keys, first the lady showing us around thought the previous visitors had taken the keys home with them, but as she called to ask them my boyfriend found them on a hook behind the curtain.  The woman was certain that the same key should unlock both doors, however one refused to open, so she called a maintenance man.  He arrived within five minutes but was unfortunately unable to solve the problem, so he called the window men.  Within an hour they arrived and replaced the lock.  The minute we were alone, we found another key behind the other curtain, where no-one had thought to check.

The lodge was well equipped and reasonably large, with ample size for two people. There were two bathrooms, one with a shower and one with a bath.  The water pressure was rather low, and as such the shower was more of a trickle than a blast of water. The kitchen had all the utensils and pans you could need, however it would have been nice to have had washing up liquid, salt, and pepper provided along with the welcome tray of tea, coffee and biscuits.

This is the perfect place to relax and escape from busy every day life.  If you like to fish (which I don't) you will fit in well, but even if you don't this is a lovely place to visit.
