Fantastic accomodation, great location

We would definitley reccomend this accomodation, and would happily stay here again.The lodge has a great layout, and lots of useful info was sent to us by the owner before we arrived.Staying at the lodge is like staying in someones home, much better than staying a sparse rental, and this really added to our holiday.

Heart of Lake District

The property had everything we needed, including a deck and BBQ. The resort had a shop, pool, bar and restaurant but we tended to walk and tour all day and eat at the house which had a fully equipped kitchen.

Well Equiped Lodge on a Very Well Managed Site

We have enjoyed a very comfortable short stay at this very well equiped and well presented lodge. As others have said it is on a very large site but the lodge is in a quiet location. We particularly enjoyed the woodland walk to the small marina and the lake frontage which was beautiful. We had good communication with the hosts who responded to any questions we had very quickly.

Family break

Overall we really enjoyed our stay, lodge had everything that we needed and more, the only downside was the cleaners need to be a little bit more thorough,as we found someone else medication in the bedside draws and wouldn’t take long to get rid of cobwebs on bedroom ceiling,but this wouldn’t put us off rebooking
