Kingfisher Lodge, South View Lodges

Every now and then, it's time to escape somewhere special with the kids and the dog – and Kingfisher Lodge is the perfect rural retreat. With open plan living and a spacious feel, this contemporary home from home has the kind of features that'll make you want to stay for a lifetime.

Just imagine a starting your day with a long soak in your very own hot tub, before serving up an al fresco breakfast on the decking. This is a place that's about listening to the birds sing while the children chatter…and those lakeside views are beautiful.

What's a family escape without your pet in tow? Well we're thrilled to say that Kingfisher Lodge welcome one dog along, so you'll be able to enjoy the woodland setting with some walkies. Speaking of a woodland setting, Kingfisher Lodge sits on the tranquil South View Lodges resort. Built around three fishing lakes, the woodland resort covers six sleepy acres of unspoilt woodland, so you can switch off the phones and enjoy those views.

Back inside, and you'll find a luxurious kitchen waiting to welcome the family foodie. You'll be able to show off your culinary skills in style and serve it up on the balcony, before gathering the family back in the living space for a film while the log burner flickers. When it's time for bed, that king size slice of Heaven in the master bedroom tops off every day, and the bedrooms are as beautifully decorated as the rest of the lodge.

The setting may be idyllic, but there's plenty to do on those family days out too. The city of Exeter's just a few miles from South View, and that means plenty of choice when it comes to dining, events and ways to keep the kids entertained. You'll find the historic cathedral, the bustling quay and more shops than you can cover in a day, all waiting to welcome you.
