Seven Scandinavian-inspired lodges nestled beside two private lakes offer a peaceful retreat in the heart of the Kent countryside. Whether you're planning a fishing holiday, a quiet family break, or using the lodges as a base to explore Kent and East Sussex, the Fisherman’s Lodges provide the perfect balance of seclusion, comfort, and outdoor access.

Tucked away in private woodland, just a few steps from the lakeshore, these timber-built cabins are a haven for nature lovers, walkers, and keen anglers. Each lodge sleeps up to six guests, making them ideal for couples, families, or groups: larger bookings can reserve multiple lodges together.

🐶 1 pet per Lodge

One well-behaved dog is welcome per lodge for a small additional charge. If you are bringing more than one dog, please consider our other properties.
