These bespoke and elegant cottages, new for 2021, are part of Hoseason’s Daisy Door Collection. Situated in a lush green site in rural Orby, near Skegness, this park offers an idyllic and peaceful atmosphere which is perfect for a couple wanting a relaxing getaway in nature.
With the coast so close, the site is ideally located for easy access to the incredible beaches at Skegness and Mablethorpe. A holiday here is guaranteed to help you recharge your batteries, with the park boasting its status being one of the most tranquil settings along the Lincolnshire Coast.
On site there are eight acres of beautiful woodland to explore. Look out for the abundant wildlife in this diverse natural habitat, including rare birds and the occasional badger and fox. There are two well stocked fishing lakes for guests to try out some coarse fishing, where there are a range of species of fish, including carp and roach.
Down by the lake makes for a wonderfully serene spot for a picnic, where you can take in the lakeside views and watch the dragonfly flitting around. It’s not hard to see why the site was awarded the prestigious David Bellamy award for wildlife when seeing just how plentiful it is across the whole park. The park also prides itself on being an eco-friendly site, meaning they give back to nature and ensure that your visit has no negative impact on the wildlife which is so rich here.
The new cottages are the ideal accommodation for a couple wanting a high-end and tailored experience that is guaranteed to add a real luxurious aspect to their getaway. From the outside, it is clear how stunning these cottages are, and how they have been created with comfort and indulgence in mind. The interior is open plan and airy, where the living area and kitchen/dining area rolls into one.
The kitchen is fully equipped for all you need to cater for yourself. The bedroom has a generously spacious king-size double bed, and these will be ready for you on arrival. Outside, there is garden furniture available for some al fresco dining on a warm evening. Your own private hot tub is situated out at the back as well, which is ideal for a relaxing soak in the evening. There’s also a flatscreen TV with Freeview in the living area for a lazy day in front of a film.
The Lincolnshire Coast is conveniently accessible from the site, meaning there are some fantastic locations right on the doorstep that guests should make the time to visit. As well as a golden sandy beach, Mablethorpe is home to some incredible eateries, for brunch, lunch, and dinner. Explore the beach in a unique way via the famous Mablethorpe Sand Train. Skegness is only a 15-minute drive away from the park, and this thriving seaside town is a great place for an outing.
There’s an aquarium and seal sanctuary in which guests can see and learn about the fascinating marine life, and there’s an amusement park with lots of traditional beachside amusements and rides. The Lincolnshire Wolds are also near to the site, so more active holidaymakers can explore this beautifully vast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty via the various walking and hiking routes.

"We loved the lodge! It was spotless and felt really fresh. The private spot was perfect, especially with the gated decking for the dogs. The welcome pack with treats was a lovely touch."
"Really enjoyed our stay here, the views over the fields are stunning!"
"Great for couples, spacious hot tub, comfy furniture and a big walk-in shower too!"
"Really enjoyed it, didnt want to go!"
"Our Herons Mead Lodges review: We booked one of the new lodges for a peaceful escape and it was just what we needed. The place is super quiet, perfect for relaxing and doing nothing much. All the facilities we wanted were in the lodge, which was handy. We also took a short drive to Loch, a lovely town with some nice eateries. Breakfast at The was fantastic and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Thanks for a great stay!"
"We had a really lovely stay. The place was spotless and the facilities were top-notch. Definitely coming back and telling friends about it too!"
"We had a really lovely stay here. The peaceful surroundings and gorgeous views made it feel like a proper escape. The lodge was super well-equipped, basically like a home from home, although we did think a bigger frying pan would have been handy - the one provided was a bit on the small side. The welcome pack and little touches were a nice touch and we appreciated that its dog-friendly - our pup was made to feel just as welcome as we were. There were a couple of minor issues, like a broken glass left in a cupboard, but nothing that really affected our trip. Unfortunately, the hot tub wasnt ready until the next morning, even though wed been told it would be available by 8pm, so we missed out on that first evening, which was a shame since we only had a short stay. Wed definitely recommend dining at the on-site restaurant rather than bringing takeaways back - the chef seemed a bit overwhelmed and our food arrived cold, but the reviews for the place are still good overall. Out of season, Skegnesss front is lovely and perfect for exploring with dogs on the beach. Thanks again for a great break - wed love to come back!"
"Nice spot, peaceful vibe, lodge was well decorated too."
