Waterfront Lodge for 8 | Roof Terrace | Covered Hot Tub | Jetty | Pool Table

44 Summer Lake sits in a prime corner position, with uninterrupted views across the lake and bay from the moment you walk through the door. Step away from the pace of everyday life. Escape, slow down and recharge. Outside, your own hot tub awaits, heated and ready to soak.

THE ROOF TERRACE

Accessed directly from the living area and kitchen, this spacious terrace looks out over the water on both sides. Seating for around ten: an L-shaped sofa, two armchairs and stools, plus two sun loungers and a gas barbecue, with gas provided. Watch the sunset, drink in hand, under skies uncompromised by city lights.

THE HEART OF THE LODGE

The first floor is open plan, with plenty of space for everyone to spend time together.

A fully fitted kitchen built around a large island with a breakfast bar, so whoever is cooking can still join in the conversation. Pull up a stool for a morning coffee, or a glass of wine while dinner is being prepared.

Sofas face tall windows overlooking the lake, with binoculars to hand. Folding doors open onto the roof terrace.

The dining table seats eight and converts into a pool table once the plates are cleared.

THE HOT TUB DECK

On the lower deck, the hot tub sits under a state-of-the-art gazebo. Turn the key and the roof rises, then the buttons do the rest: bubbles, heat and LED mood lighting. Sit back and let the massage jets do the work. Retractable shades give all weather protection and extra privacy. Steps lead down to the jetty beyond.

THE BEDROOMS

All four bedrooms are on the ground floor, along with a darts room where the rivalry usually starts and a utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer.

Bedroom One. The master bedroom which is the largest of the four, with a king size bed and direct access to the lower deck and hot tub. The en suite has twin basins and a large rainfall shower.

Bedroom Two. On the corner of the lodge, with frameless glass around the deck, looking out where the lake meets the bay. Waking up here feels as though you are floating on the water. A king size bed, a small walk-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room.

Bedrooms Three and Four. Located at the front of the lodge, one with a king size bed and one with a double. Both share the nearby family bathroom, with bath and shower over.

GAMES AND ENTERTAINMENT

Table football on the deck is ideal for a friendly tournament. Croquet and boules sets, tennis rackets and balls are all provided.

Smart TVs in the living area and three of the bedrooms, ready to sign in to Netflix.

A Sonos sound system is built into the high ceilings, so you can enjoy your favourite music while cooking or relaxing.

There’s plenty of room to spread out. Enjoy a game of darts or pool, settle down with a film or unwind in the hot tub.
