10 Duck Lagoon, Tattershall

A lovely lodge, the welcome hamper on arrival was a nice touch and put a smile on all of our faces. Beautiful view onto the lake from our lodge. The owner was very helpful when we had an issue with the heating which was quickly resolved by Tattershall staff. We would definitely book again.

We had a lovely early Christmas family break at 10 Duck Lagoon. Very clean and welcoming, we were left a lovely welcome hamper there was even treats for the dog. There was a problem with the boiler, which was out of the owners control but we reported this and despite it being Christmas Eve they were very responsive and it was resolved straight away. Thank you for a lovely stay. Would love to come back in the summer.

I would just like to say how much myself & my family enjoyed our stay at 10 Duck Lagoon lodge this weekend, we loved every minute enjoying the lovely views relaxing outside watching all the wildlife. The hot tub was lovely & hot too. Kind regards Colette

There were absolutely no negatives about 10 Duck Lagoon, the beds were super comfy, the sofa was big enough for us all, it was lovely being able to sit and eat at a table, the added extras of dishwasher and washing machine was great. It was a fab experience watching the RAF jets whilst having breakfast out on the balcony. The hot tub on an evening was lovely. The only thing missing is some sort of full length mirror 19 & 24yr olds request

We had an absolutely fantastic little break away in 10 Duck Lagoon. Great Fishing Perfect Hot tub Just a perfect peaceful time away. 4 Generations and something for everybody.

My issue is not with Sykes cottages, but having decided to take our granddaughter on a last minute holiday we booked 10 Duck Lagoon as it looked just the job for a weeks break, however following our hortened stay we would not recomend this particular lodge to anyone. The facilitites at the lodge were ok but very dated compared with other surrounding lodges on the site and there was a foul smell of drains every time the washer, dishwasher, toilet's or showers were used, that would stay for around 30 mins until vented out. The hot tub outside had a horrible stagnant smell to the water and was green in colour, the filter in the bottom had hair and other items stuck in the grill. On the fourth day of us being there a subcontractor came and just put 2 chlorine tablets in the filter but did not clean it out. We didn't let our granddaughter in the hot tub due to the state of the water as I felt it not safe and could have contained legionella bacteria. We paid 1561 for a 5 night stay and then found out at the last minute to access the main facilities on the site of Tattershall that we would have to get guest passes from the owner at a futher cost of 240 paid direct to the owner to be allowed to access the bars, restaurant's, arcade and children's play park, then on top of this the activities for our granddaughter i.e swimming, crazy golf and lake aqua park had to be booked at further cost. Then on our last day being Saturday as we were due to leave Sunday morning the 1st Sept our access to the site facilties were blocked by security as the guest passes we paid 240 to the owner of 10 Duck Lagoon for expired at midday on Saturday the 31st Aug. Therefore we decided enough was enough and we packed our bags and went home on Saturday afternoon, one night early. We were very upset that we were forced to leave early due to the cost spent on the rental of the lodge, the guest passes and the futher cost of swimming, golf, and aqua park which came to around 1921 for a 4 night stay and not a 5 night stay as planned and booked. We are very dissapointed with this experience.

1010 Really impressed with this property at Tattershall Lakes. The owner, Mike, has been helpful regarding leisure passes and property queries from the minute we booked the customer service was brilliant. The property was extremely well equipped from family games, DVDs to cutlery, toiletries and even baby friendly softener for the washing machine. We stayed as a party of 5 adults and 2 babies under 1 and couldnt have asked for much more in terms of products ready to meet us on arrival. The property was lovely and clean and very spacious. The outdoor decking area was great and the lodge location is very peaceful without being too far of a walk away from the entertainment on the Park. We would definitely stay in this lodge again and 100 recommend to anyone looking to stay at Tattershall Lakes.

Our second visit to 10 Duck Lagoon was equally wonderful. The quirkiness of creaking floor boards and an upside down property with idyllic lake views was atmospheric. Even the jets flying over makes it a special place. The improvements since our last visit made a big difference and hats off to the cleaner for great presentation. One request more hooks in the bathrooms please. See you next year John

We were so disappointed, to have to come home Our week was so relaxing, breakfast on the decking, whilst feeding the ducks and watching the wildlife. The lodge is in a peaceful location, felt miles away from anywhere, even though all facilities are just 5 minutes walk. Everything you need in the lodge, so we were able to have some lovely evenings in. Great location, with lovely pubs & tea rooms a short car drive away. We all had a lovely time. Owner was fantastic at communicating. Thank you for a lovely time, highly recommend.

Had a fantastic stay at 10 duck lagoon. everything was as described and was nice and clean. great location if you like fishing with its own peg. im not a fisherman so not sure how good it is. the log cabin is about a 10 minute walk to the facilities or a 5 minite walk up the gully to the pub. my only complaint is the cost of the passes just to get access to the pool and clubhouse as everything else seems to be chargable once your in there. price of passes are nothing to do with the lodge owner, these are dictated by away resorts. i would imagine it be very busy in main season also and it is a small pool. jacuzzi was small compared to others but i personly found it better and more comfortable to sit in than the big square ones. will hopefully be back sometime soon. ps. this is a proper log cabin not like others that claim to be, and then look like a caravan inside.

There are many issues with this lodge before its safe to rent out again . The front door is a struggle to lock unlock The decking is full of uneven flooring, with nails sticking out making it very dangerous . The decking is not finished causing splinters . There is a terrible smell coming from the fridge end of the kitchen , its smells like sour milk and is very unpleasant on a warm day . The rest of the lodge is beautiful with lovely bedrooms and ensuite , but sadly let down by the outside area being un safe , un finished and very uninviting .

Had a wonderful stay, very clean lodge and had absolutely everything we needed except WiFi. That would be the only thing I think needs adding.

What a beautiful log cabin. Everything provided, it was truely like a home from home holiday. When arrived and opened the door our first reaction was wow this is beautiful. Spacious, clean apart from the odd cobweb and bugs bare in mind you are next to the lake so bugs to be expected mainly when doors are open. Comfortable beds, clean towels, washer, a fan which came in handy with the hot weather . Internal doors don't all fully shut, however they did push to, not an issue for my family. No WiFi in the cabin. However, could connect to the sites WiFi. Also, I got 5g, so again, it's not a problem. Owner absolutely fantastic at responding and acting if anything is required. I asked for the hot tub to be cleaned due to leaves from trees falling into it. The next morning it was cleaned. I definitely recommend this log cabin I will be looking to book again. Thanks again to the owner Mike who was so helpful before and during our stay.

Nice accommodation but sadly, let down by the over whelming need for a deep clean and investment in a full maintenance plan or even the basic inspection and repair. On arrival I texted the owner to advise him that it as though there had been an attempted break in, door hinges were in a poor state as were the doors and locks at ground level. The reply was that new doors were enroute but the same problem had been commented on in August 2021in other reviews, we could only use the main door to access or leave the property and even then was a struggle to lock and unlock. I could go on as there was so much that needed doing in the property and also on the fishing peg outside the property with overhanging branches and lost tackle of floats, hooks and leadshot. I also asked about internet access and was told it had been removed due to poor signal quality yet both properties either side appeared to have no issues. All in all the accommodation was disappointing and with a measure of investment of time and TLC, and not just the surface clean and minimal effort to prepare the property following occupation of holiday families. Would we come again? To the park yes but sadly not to Duck Lodge, even the BBQ needed emptying and cleaning before it could be used and the information folder of little help other than for a takeaway listing. Furnishings could also do with updating or some TLC, enough said I think

The best place to stay with family and friends pet friendly . We all loved our stay! We felt very comfortable, safe, and it was very clean. The location was more beautiful than pictures show. Communication FANTASTIC Host was AMAZING! Highly recommended

Brilliant lodge and great scenery would highly recommend

We had a lovely stay at 10 Duck Lake, the property itself sits on a lovely tranquil lake that has geese on which come up to your door. The lodge itself is upside down, so we spent many mornings waking up and opening our doors and sitting out on the decking watching the Typhoons take off from RAF Conningsby. There are three bedrooms at 10 Duck Lake, one double bedroom with an ensuite and two twin rooms, one is attached to a Jack and Jill bathroom. There was a slight sour milk smell in the kitchen and no cleaning products but it was fine as we bought some with us. There's a BBQ at the property, but you need to bring your own charcoal etc to light it. The park has some lovely facilities for all the family and the main complex is a 10 minute walk away. We played mini golf and went to the outdoor lido and had spa treatments by the indoor pool. We also visited the Spitfire bar for lunch and Bar Forty Nine overlooks the Water Ski lake and would have cocktails of an evening and they do small breakfasts in the morning. The Propeller restaurant does nice food with a good choice for vegans and vegetarians. There's lots to do on the park if you purchase an entertainment pass via the owner, they're 25pp but worth it for the amount of activities you can do. Some activities are extra on top of your pass, such as mini golf, pedalo, bikes etc. Skegness is a 40 minute drive away and has lots to do for all the family. We went to the beach and had fish and chips, but there's a few fairs, mini golf a seal sanctuary there too. We can't wait to book again as the park and property is lovely and although we stayed a week, it wasn't enough time to do all the activities we wanted to!

Amazing lodge loved it. Great views of the lake, lovely rooms and all the facilities you need. Will definitely rebook and cant wait

The cabin was absolutely perfect for my 50th birthday celebration with the girls, we total chilled out sitting in the hot tub looking out over the little lake. The cabin was really comfortable and clean with all the mod cons. The owner was very helpful when we contacted him with regards to a few things we weren't sure of. The whole park was very clean and tidy and we'll maintained.Would highly recommend and would love to visit again.

We had a fabulous time at 10 duck lake , the fishing was a little disappointing ... We had a fabulous time at 10 duck lake , the fishing was a little disappointing but the lodge was wonderful , a few more pots and pans would have been helpful but we managed , the site has all you could want although a little expensive especially after having to purchase the passes but all in all a great week and was a wonderful base to celebrate my 50th birthday , great times with great friends and family , thank you x

Well where do I start,not enough space here to write hoe disgusting and tatty the lodge was. Very very disappointed and came home 3 days earlier.

Very supportive owner. ..prompt at answering and solving problems... location was excellent and the property was well maintained and clean. The only downside was locating the property as there wasn't much help from the staff however it was dark. But overall an excellent stay and will return without a doubt!

Amazing stay , very clean and enjoyable! !! Will definitely be returning.

Where do I start? Sykes contacted us to inform us that the owner had contacted them to inform us that the previous guests had broken bed legs, tv stand and the tv remote but confirmed the tv stand would be fixed prior to our arrival, it wasnt, not only this but the remote didnt work either resulting in the owner telling us we had to download an app to our phones to control the tv which wasnt possible due to the non existant wifi. The property was filthy on arrival, previous guests dirty sponges and tea towels had been left. The fridge was vile and smelt like dog food had been stored in there, we had to go out and buy cleaning products to clean the property. Dust and cobwebs everywhere, hair in shower trap, windows filthy, chairs and boxes broken with nails and sharp wood sticking out. No amount of bleach could get rid of the smell of the fridge. We couldnt use the hot tub for first two days as it was not up to temperature and the engineer came out and confirmed it had a fault and went into sleep mode so would need another 8 hours to reach temperature. The doors do not open or close properly as they are in such disrepair, the maintenace chap did come out straight away and said that he had countless complaints about it and they are nackered. The oven was filthy and bath mat had someones dirty foot print on it. The property is in very poor state, boards outside split with nails causing health and safety hazard, rotting wood supports, the doors and windows do not open or close properly. Saturday morning at 3am the smoke alarm went off for no reason, it is in an unreachable position so had to hit it with a tea towel and it fell, then couldnt be fixed. I apologised to the owner who was fine but said he wouldnt replace it until friday when we left. Not very happy sleeping in a log wooden cabin with no smoke detector??!! My son ended up in hospital for 2 days after injurying his neck on the aqua park thankfully he is ok but a very sad end to a holiday and property from hell. I contacted Sykes to air our dissapointment who then advised that owner blamed us for the broken items which he admitted where caused by the previous guests and that we had left the hot tub filty, considering we used it for 10 mins twice and that was the cleanest thing in the place is extreamley disresepctful. I contacted the owner myself who then denied all knowledge that it was us who broke things and offered a mere 50 compensation for the diabolicle state of the lodge, if anyone thinks that this place is clean then maybe i am from another planet!! To make matters worse he then said that we had never informed him that the place was unclean, i have text messages to that effect. This owner doesnt care about the property, nor its guests, just happy to charge an extortinate amount of money for a accident waiting to happen, Our advice, chose a cardboard box, you would have a much better stay!!

A lot of things in the cabin still need fixing and the whole place is in need of a deep clean inside and out.

The property is in the need of a deep clean inside and out. Fishing peg broken, no TV aerial in master bedroom, cooker broken the list is endless. After having contact with yourselves it was agreed the owner would ask maintenance team to rectify issues. No maintenance appeared all week. I emailed you numerous times to update you on situation. You never had the courtesy to reply after promising you would keep me informed. Total disgrace!!

This is a lovely lodge and the owner was really helpful with any questions we had.
