North Devon
View on Google MapsPhoto: JackPlays243
The Lodge is a two-storey cottage sleeping four, set within grounds that centre on two well-stocked coarse fishing lakes. Both lakes are free to use during your stay. The property sits on a 14-acre landscaped site near Barnstaple, with direct access to the fishing facilities and shared grounds that include sitting-out areas.
Downstairs has a living and dining room with Freeview TV and DVD player, plus a kitchen equipped for proper cooking—electric oven, dishwasher, microwave, and a washer dryer. Upstairs are two bedrooms: one with a double bed, one with two single beds. There is one shower room. Bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi are included. The property has its own enclosed garden with patio, garden furniture and a barbecue. Private parking for two cars is on site.
The location works well for fishing holidays, but the beaches at Instow, Woolacombe and Saunton are within reach for days away from the lakes. Barnstaple town is a short drive, and the North Devon coastline offers walking, swimming and eating out. One dog can stay free of charge. No smoking inside the cottage.

Our family of four are just about to finish our weeks stay. We've been to Devon and Cornwall a few times over the years for holidays, and I can hand on heart say this is the best we've had. The fishing is brilliant if you're coming for that (not to mention lakes to yourself when the day tickets start and finish 7-7) but I want to say the owners are super lovely, accomodating and friendly. The cottage we stayed in was perfect and all you can need, even with a private garden and a huge back garden for the kids to play. The surroundings for evening walks are lovely (wish we had brought the dog!). So much to do within half hour of driving. Croyde bay, westward ho, tarka trail, combe Martin, Ilfracombe. The list goes on. Great local pubs too. The biggest positive was the price. Seriously, they could charge another 20% and it would be worth it. We spoke to people fishing on the lake who spent 3x as much locally (albeit on the beach and modern apartment) and they couldn't believe what we paid. Such value for money and free fishing included which meant my teenage son loved his 6am starts each day! We will be back and thank you so much for having us.

Beautiful surroundings and great fishing. The cottages are really homely and well equipped for a good holiday. Dog friendly and lovely to walk around the lakes with your dog.

Just returned from our second stay at Riverton lakes. Last time we stayed in Mole cottage and this time in the Lodge. Absolutely love staying here. It's quite and peaceful but near enough to local amenities . The cottages are very well equipped and very clean. My husband loves the fishing in the beautiful and well kept lakes while I enjoy exploring the local area.Jackie the owner is lovely and very friendly. Will be back next year.
