Messingham Lakes, set in the heart of the Lincolnshire countryside is a truly distinctive lodge resort where exceptional facilities and a genuine sense of community come together to create something special. With an outstanding range of on-site amenities and some of the most unique lodge plots available anywhere in the country, ownership here offers a lifestyle that is difficult to find elsewhere.

A Lifestyle Like No Other

What sets Messingham Lakes apart from other lodge resorts is the opportunity to own a property with a fully enclosed private garden! A selection of lodges at the park benefit from beautifully landscaped, completely private outdoor spaces where children can play freely and dogs can roam safely. Six brand new private gardens have recently been completed. Each garden comes with the option to add a pergola and hot tub, creating an all-weather outdoor sanctuary to enjoy throughout every season.

For those drawn to the water, a number of premium lodge plots overlook the lake directly, offering stunning views from your decking, hot tub, or garden. Waking up to reflections on the water and dining al fresco as the sun sets over the lake is the kind of everyday experience that ownership at Messingham Lakes can bring.

On the social side, The Lounge by the Lake sits at the heart of the resort. This stylish lakeside restaurant and bar serves carefully crafted seasonal dishes and a full menu of drinks, and also operates as a wedding and events venue — ideal for milestone celebrations, private functions, and corporate away days.

Messingham Lakes is exceptionally well equipped for those who enjoy an active lifestyle. The park is home to an 18-hole parkland golf course that winds through mature trees and alongside the lakes, suitable for players of all abilities. Annual golf membership for two people is included within the lodge site fees, which represents outstanding value. A driving range sits just across from the resort and is open to owners and guests, with multiple practice bays, equipment hire, and a pro shop on site. PGA professional tuition is also available for those looking to improve their game.

Tennis courts are available within the resort grounds, well-maintained and suitable for all abilities, with racquet and ball hire on hand. Looking ahead, padel tennis courts are planned for 2027, bringing one of the fastest-growing racquet sports in the world to the estate. Open water swimming in the resort's natural lake is also planned for 2026, with supervised sessions, wetsuits, and buoyancy aids available for all experience levels.

Messingham Lakes benefits from a peaceful rural setting while remaining well connected. The village of Messingham is close by, and the town of Scunthorpe is within easy reach for everyday shopping, dining, and services.
