About Us

 

 

Upton Farm

  Set in 180 acres of beautiful unspoilt countryside. 

It has been in our family for over 70 years. Formerly a dairy farm, in recent times, has evolved into organic farmland. A natural area for diversification for Upton farm was to introduce the oldest of it's lakes as a fishing attraction, being over 100 years old, with established reed beds, shrubs and plants it attracts a range of wildlife, in turn helping sustain the Bream, Carp and Perch that breed naturally in the lakes. A second lake was introduced over 10 years ago. The healthy fish stock and the tranquil setting of Upton Lakes have been a favourite for coarse anglers for more than 20 years. Holiday acccomodation seemed the next natural step for us to take in this ever evolving business. We have developed a good working relationship with the leading tour operator Hoseasons, working together we are in a position to enable others to stay with us at Upton Lakes and enjoy the natural wildlife, peace and tranquility that this rural retreat offers. Maintaining our land and the environment will always remain our single most vested responsibility and we continue to develop and maintain habitats that attract a wide range of wildlife to Upton.

 

We are proud of our rural heritage and welcome all to share it with us.

 

 

What Hoseasons say about us 

 

We have been working with Richard and Claire at Upton Lakes since 2008 and over this time we have sent hundreds of satisfied customers to this small and successful family run development of boutique lodges.

We have been consistently impressed with the passion and dedication shown by the team at Upton Lakes and the hard work and effort that goes in to ensuring that our customers are well looked after and leave having thoroughly enjoyed their stay. This is reflected in the outstanding customer feedback we receive and the impressive ratings on our website. These exceptional scores are testament to hard work and a passion for customer service so clearly evident at Upton Lakes; so much so that these ratings are some of the highest in our entire portfolio.

Given the superb location and easy access to major routes, the lodge development benefits massively from the recent surge in short breaks and the increasing popularity of UK holidays. It is for this reason that we have seen continued growth in occupancy over the last 3 years. For a new and growing business, consistently achieving 95% occupancy has been a great achievement and clearly demonstrates the strong demand for these lodges in the current consumer market place.

In short we are delighted to be working with such quality operators who add great value to the Hoseasons portfolio and who are constantly raising the bar in quality and service. We are committed to a long standing and successful partnership and fully support both Richard and Claire in their continuing expansion at Upton Lakes.
