29 reviews from guests who stayed at Hawthorn Glen Lodges
"We Had lovely time here, the lodge was very spacious and very clean. We loved that the hot tub was private (on the side) rather than being at front where everyone could see. The lodge is tucked away on beautiful golf course, with a little shop which gives you so much more quality family time. Its so peaceful especially at night. For families staying we recommend the following days out : ROARR (about hour away) Skylark (about half hour away) Train to kings Lyn (station is 5/10 mins away in car, and cost £13 for family of four return) Bircham windmill - (50 mins away) climb to the top, make own bread, play stuff for children, horse, lovely cafe!"
"Good size lodge"

"Really pleased with the lodge, everything felt quite homely and comfy."
"No complaints for the lodge fixtures and fittings, very comfortable.."
"Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge had everything we needed and more."
"Weve been to Cloud Lodge twice now and loved it so much, weve already booked for next year! Everythings just lovely."
"We had a lovely stay here! Perfect for unwinding and relaxing, especially in the winter. Just a heads up - if you're planning to use the hot tub in cold weather, definitely bring a dressing gown. The hot tub itself is fantastic, with colourful lights and the option to turn the bubbles on or off. The water temperature was just right, even when it was freezing outside, which was a big plus. Wed definitely come back!"
"The lodge was really airy and comfy, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Staff were super friendly too!"
"We had an amazing weekend away here! The place was spotless and really well equipped, making it easy to cook and relax. The environment was super chilled, perfect for a girls trip or even a romantic escape. We were a bit delayed because of traffic, but the manager was brilliant-left the key safely, turned on the hot tub and heating so everything was ready when we arrived. Truly top-notch service. Definitely coming back and recommending to friends!"
"The cottage was absolutely lovely, with a cosy log burner and hot tub that made our stay extra special. Hosts were warm and welcoming too! Hope to come back soon for a longer visit."
"Great experience, definitely returning"
"Really enjoyed it, would definitely go again"
"Very happy with the service"
"Apart from the RAF fighter jets taking off once in a while some distance away this is a very quiet getaway. This is THE perfect place to unwind and relax. Tecos's is 6 mins by car so you do not have to travel far for your shopping. There is also a hot tub that is checked regularly by the staff so it is always clean. This is a great stress relief if you have been on a long drive, or again you want to simply unwind. With the choice of paying and playing a round of golf there is no better way to just simply chill. It is also a great place to base yourself to visit some of the great tourist attractions nearby. As a recommendation goes. we can not wait to return to this site again"

"Fantastic Holiday,totally relaxing ?"
"Lovely stay really quiet and nice location"
"Very nice lodge. Only two lodges currently. Situated on a golf course and was very quiet. Lodge was very clean and spacious. Would advise however to take your own hairdryer as could not locate one. Also, if you like fresh coffee, take your own cafetière. Hot tub was lovely and was located in a private, secluded area outside the front door. About 50 minutes from Cambridge park and ride and about 30 minutes from Kings Lynn. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Wifi was excellent and TV has access to Netflix, iPlayer, Prime for streaming."
"Great location to explore Norfolk. The lodge has everything you would expect for an enjoyable break. The bonus is the spa pool….even when it’s raining!!!"
"A lovely spotlessly clean lodge. Minor points would be hooks on bedroom doors, decent shelf in bathroom, outdoor loungers."
"A perfect place to stay for a short break, so quiet and peaceful. The lodge was immaculate, hot tub lovely and warm and hidden away down the side of the lodge. We will definitely return."

A vast Fenland cathedral with a unique octagonal lantern tower and a tower climb for far-reaching views.
Ely Cathedral stands above the flat Fenland landscape, which is why locals call it "the ship of the Fens". The earliest parts of the present building date to 1083, and it is one of the largest Norman churches built in its day. Its nave is among the longest in Britain, and the central Octagon, with its lantern above, creates a remarkable space inside.
Tip: Book tickets and tours in advance, as tour places are limited, and check opening times first because it is a busy working cathedral.
