Center Parcs has released detailed designs for the new style of accommodation being introduced at its Elveden Forest resort next year (2018).

Aimed at families, the new Waterside Lodges are positioned at a prime location in the heart of the 400-acre forest and offer direct views over the Elveden Forest’s lake.

Inspired by Scandinavian and nautical themes, the lodges have been designed to “connect families with surrounding nature”.

Housing three en-suite bedrooms (two double and one single) upstairs, the lodges also feature rustic balconies overlooking the water.

Sleeping up to six guests, the lodges offer free WiFi and a hot tub on an outside deck.

Martin Dalby, CEO of Center Parcs said: “We’re very excited about the new accommodation, which will be right in the heart of the Elveden resort.

“Being surrounded by trees, next to a lake is the perfect spot to access the best of Center Parcs.

“I believe the combination of the forest environment, coupled with the lake view, will help families switch off from the busy pace of everyday life, to connect with each other, nature and the wildlife around them.”
