Bridlington Lodge Types: Choose Your Perfect Yorkshire Coastal Retreat

Lakeside Secret Gardens sits just a mile from the Yorkshire coast, offering luxury lodge ownership in one of England's most treasured holiday destinations. But choosing the right lodge type matters—it shapes how you'll use the space, who you'll welcome, and the experience you'll create.

We offer two distinct lodge types at Lakeside, each designed for different visions of coastal escape.

The Lodge Types at Lakeside Secret Gardens

Natures

2 Bedrooms · 1 Bathroom

Nature XL

£149,995

2 Bedrooms · 1 Bathroom

Perfect for: Couples who want premium Secret Garden

Natures Lodge: Simple, Calm, and Entirely Yours

The Natures lodge is Lakeside's classic offering—perfectly sized for couples or small families who want privacy without excess. At £124,995, it's an accessible entry point to luxury lodge ownership on the Yorkshire coast.

With two double bedrooms, you're sleeping four in comfort. The bright open living space and fully equipped kitchen make intimate entertaining feel effortless. But the real magic happens outside: your personal Secret Garden, completely private and personalised to your vision, with a hot tub and day bed for those slow coastal mornings.

Natures suits couples seeking their own woodland sanctuary, or small families who prioritise intimacy and simplicity over sprawling space. Owners report that Natures feels like a genuine escape—not because it's grand, but because it's perfectly calibrated for genuine rest and connection.

Nature XL: The Premium Secret Garden Experience

Nature XL shares the same beautiful 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom interior as Natures—but the difference is dramatic when you step outside. At £149,995, Nature XL is about expanding your Secret Garden into a full outdoor sanctuary.

Where Natures gives you a compact Secret Garden with essentials (hot tub, dining table, day bed), Nature XL's spacious Secret Garden becomes your outdoor oasis. You get a private sauna alongside your hot tub—two wellness sanctuaries for different moods. You get a proper bar area, not just a dining table. Your day bed sits in a garden with room to breathe, to entertain, to truly retreat.

Nature XL suits couples who want to maximise their outdoor living, who entertain guests and want space for a bar and lounge area, who value wellness amenities (hot tub and sauna), and who want their Secret Garden to feel like a destination in itself—not just a patio extension.

Key Comparisons: Finding Your Fit

What Every Lakeside Lodge Includes

Regardless which lodge type you choose, you're getting access to the same Lakeside experience. Each comes with your private enclosed Secret Garden (personalised entirely to your vision), your own parking space, a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, and Smart TV connectivity. Beyond the physical lodge, you're also securing access to the entire Lakeside environment: less than a mile from Bridlington's golden beaches, close to local attractions, woodland walks, and everything the Yorkshire coast offers.

All Lakeside owners benefit from optional professionally managed rental income if they choose to generate earnings when the lodge sits empty. Your annual costs are predictable and fixed: £7,500 ground rent covers everything from maintenance to park amenities. No surprise repairs. No logistical headaches.

Annual Costs & Financial Reality

Here's the investment summary: you own your lodge outright. Annual ground rent is £7,500 for both lodge types. No upgrade fees, no seasonal surcharges, no surprise maintenance costs. Compare that to the typical holiday rental traveller spending £250–£400 per night for 40 weekends a year—that's £10,000–£16,000 annually just for temporary access with zero ownership equity.

With Lakeside ownership, your lodge is yours from day one: a private retreat to enjoy whenever you like, with the option of managed rental income when you're away. Your annual costs are transparent and controlled.

Making Your Choice

Both Natures and Nature XL have identical interiors: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV, and the same comfort level. The difference lies entirely in your Secret Garden vision.

Choose Natures if: You want a perfectly appointed outdoor space with the essentials—hot tub, dining table, day bed—without needing extensive garden amenities. It's ideal for couples who entertain occasionally and value simplicity at an accessible price point (£124,995).

Choose Nature XL if: You want your Secret Garden to be the star. You value a spacious outdoor sanctuary with a sauna, a bar area for entertaining, and room to truly spread out. You see your garden as a destination in itself. The £149,995 investment reflects the premium outdoor experience.

Both options offer genuine luxury lodge ownership in one of Yorkshire's most prized locations. Both come with identical interior comfort, the same coastal access, and the same opportunity to build equity instead of burning money on hotel stays. The choice is simply: compact garden (Natures) or premium garden (Nature XL)?
