Overview

Occupying a south-facing plot on the sought-after Roadford Lake Lodges Estate, this stylish two-bedroom holiday home enjoys lovely views over open fields and offers a fantastic balance of indoor comfort and outdoor living.

Bright and welcoming, the open-plan living space flows effortlessly onto the sun-drenched patio through French doors, while thoughtful design touches like a wine fridge in the kitchen and an electric wood-effect stove in the lounge, add an extra layer of comfort. Perfect for families or couples looking to unwind, the lodge features a spacious master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, a twin bedroom, a well-equipped kitchen and a light-filled living room. Outside, a bubbling hot tub and peaceful field views invite lazy afternoons or long evenings beneath the stars.

Set in Devon’s beautiful Wolf Valley, Roadford Lake is the largest inland water in the Southwest—an idyllic spot for walking, cycling, picnics and water sports. Surrounded by peaceful countryside with Dartmoor’s tors on the horizon, it’s a wonderful place to relax or explore the outdoors. Just minutes from the A30, Roadford Lake makes an ideal base for visiting both Devon and Cornwall, with coast, moorland, and local attractions all within easy reach.

Beautiful lodge on lovely quiet site
5/5

We had a lovely stay in Poppy Lodge and it was just as described and in the photos, everything was spotless. A lovely outlook from the deck and hot tub over the sheep field. We would definitely stay here again.

Short break away in great location
4.5/5

Perfect location with access to Roadford lake and for exploring the area. Well presented lodge with amazing hot tub looking onto field. Plenty of storage however could do with more kitchen dishes for cooking. The layout of the sofas made it awkward to watch tv, not very practical.

Guest, 10 May 2026

Thank you so much for leaving such a review its so nice to hear your feedback, we really appreciate your time. We are so happy to hear that you found the lodge in a good standard and you enjoyed some beautiful views from the hot tub. We apologize that you didn't feel fully equipped in the kitchen space and that the layout was not the most practical. We will pass this concerns onto the local property manager and allow them to make the changes needed. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Beautiful and great for small families
4.8/5

Loved this place - we've just scaled our Midlands organisation, so I'll be required to spend more time in the SW. Broadwoodwidger, was perfectly located for me in terms of getting into Exeter and Tavistock. I brought my partner, 3 year old and little frenchie & we had a fab time. Very peaceful, tranquil and we managed to get an enclosed garden for the dog, which was ideal. Really clean, everything you need is there, making it easier for next time - we dont need to pack as much. 10/10 would strongly recommend and we will be back in January :)

Aaron, 18 Nov 2025

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted you and your family (including your little frenchie!) had such a peaceful and enjoyable stay. It’s great to hear the location worked perfectly for your needs, and that the enclosed garden and well equipped space made things easier for you. Your kind words will be really helpful for other guests looking for a tranquil getaway. We look forward to welcoming you back in January! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team.

Great little break
4.8/5

Fantastic location and the accommodation was brilliant. Well equipped and very clean and tidy. Close to dog walks around the lakes and only a 2 minute walk to the cafe by the lakes which served great food.

Family lodge holiday
4.3/5

We loved the location of Poppy Lodge. The site was well maintained and the lake was great for walks straight from the door. It was good to have the cafe so close by too. The lodge itself was clean and comfortable with a lovely outside area overlooking fields. We were able to visit lots of places within about 30 minutes so location was good. We did have an issue with the oven so couldnt use it for several days. Our main problem was the hot tub. The hot tub was not kept as clean as we would have hoped and we were unable to use it for 5 days. We have stayed in many lodges with hot tubs where they are checked daily or even twice a day. Although we did speak to the onsite team and luxury coastal direct it wasnt rectified to our satisfaction so it did have an impact on our holiday. We also did not appreciate the strong smell of cannabis from the lodge next door which went on all day and night. Overall the site is great, the lodges are lovely the hot tub just needs to be properly cleaned & maintained.

Guest, 30 Aug 2025

Hi Lisa, We were very sorry to hear that there was a problem with the grill element in the oven at the start of your stay. We can understand that this would be frustrating, however we were glad we were able to get it sorted just as quickly when the electrician was able to attend and source a replacement part. The hot tub is inspected and dip tested every day by the on-site technician, and no issue was found with it upon the daily inspection. We gather that you were reassured by him on day 3 of your holiday as to the correct standards being maintained. As such, we must emphasise the importance of showering before us in order to remove suntan oils, perfumes, deodorants etc from the skin. Failure to do this will affect the water condition. We do apologise that you encountered a few problems during your stay, but we're also glad that we could get them either clarified or sorted quickly. We hope to offer you a smoother stay should you choose to book with us again. Kind regards, Luxury Coastal

Amazing lodge some drawbacks!
4/5

Overall we cant fault the stay, the place looked like it had barely been used - if at all! The layout worked well for a family of 4 with a dog, the kitchen was well equipped (needs a grater!). Bathrooms and bedrooms were great size and comfy. Living area sofas were so uncomfortable but imagine its a certain type of sofa as its dog friendly. Had to use two chairs to secure the outside so the dog couldnt get out as there was no gate to the patio area, would really make sense to gate this as a dog friendly property. Massive storage shed was really handy to keep our bits in for paddle boarding and camping that we were going on to, the right hand lock was difficult to get on at times. Instructions for how to use the hot tub jets/lights would be handy. Pre arrival text said 11th lodge on the right, luckily I knew we were in 5 poppy and went to that one instead. Location is quite far from a lot of things, worth researching prior to! Unless youre happy to stay at the lodge/activity lake, its a good hour to get to a lot of places in Devon/Cornwall.

Alex, 22 Aug 2025

Hi Alex, Thank you for leaving us a review! We are so pleased that you felt as if the Lodge had barely been used and that you couldn't fault your stay, this is truly great news! The bathrooms and bedrooms are all great sized we do agree- having a great bed is needed, so we are pleased that this was the case for your stay. The storage area is large which is really helpful to store everything, especially water sports equipment. We have passed your comments over to the Owner about the sofa, we are sorry that it was uncomfortable for you. We have also shared your feedback about a gate for the property, and the text message has now been amended to the correct Lodge. I am pleased that you were able to have a lovely stay and I hope that we can welcome you back to stay with us again! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team.
