Guests that stayed at this property said

The lodge received mixed reviews on cleanliness. Some guests found it spotless upon arrival, while others reported superficial cleaning and housekeeping issues. The cleanliness was generally satisfactory, but there is room for improvement.

The location is highly praised for being quiet, private, and close to local amenities and attractions. Its position at the end of a row and proximity to the lake and an activity centre add to its appeal.

Guests find the lodge comfortable, with nice and comfy beds and a quiet setting. However, some guests mentioned that the mattresses could be renewed, indicating a slight room for improvement in comfort.

Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and good on-site amenities. However, persistent Wi-Fi issues and occasional maintenance problems with appliances like the dishwasher have been noted.

There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews provided, so it is not possible to assess this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

About this property

This fabulous lodge sits in a secluded setting, on an award-winning holiday park on the shores of Lake Windermere. Set in an elevated position with distant lake views, and boasting a beautiful, large decked terrace, this excellent Windermere cottage presents a high standard of holiday accommodation with modern furnishings throughout. Families and friends will adore their break at this fantastic Lake District lodge, with its three bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, a separate luxury bathroom, and a well-equipped open plan living area with French doors in the dining and sitting areas, which open out to the secluded decking. The spacious outdoor area at this Windermere lodge is complete with patio furniture and overlooks the quiet, adjacent woodlands, providing a tranquil place to sit together and prepare holiday plans, or gather your thoughts over a glass of wine on a peaceful, summers evening. There are many excellent facilities on site, including an indoor swimming pool, sauna, Jacuzzi and gym available, as well as a restaurant with takeaway service, bar, children's play park and multi-use games area. There are woodland walks from the doorstep of this superb Windermere lodge, while the shores of Lake Windermere are merely a two-minute stroll away, where you will discover sweeping sights across the water to the beautiful fells of the Lake District. Slightly further down the lakeside is Brockhole, the National Park’s visitor centre, with a nature reserve and outdoor adventure playground plus a tree top course; ideal for keeping the younger members of the group happy. With excellent shops, cafes and restaurants available to enjoy in Bowness-on-Windermere, just five minutes’ drive away, this superb Lake District lodge provides a perfect base for every group.

    Unfortunately no views of the lake some of the pictures portray due to additional lodges and trees in the way. However this lodge is not on ground floor so does give some sense of privacy and better views. The kitchen was well equipped and heating was available to use should you need it. Unfortunately the kitchen handles were sticky and therefore needed a wipe down but overall very clean place. You get access to one car parking space right outside your lodge but take note you do have 20 steps to climb (as stated in the description as advertised) The bathrooms unfortunately had a horrible smell coming from the drains, was quite unbearable and we had no way of directly contacting management to get this fixed immediately. The mattresses & pillows in the bedroom are non existent, you just sink into it. The mattresses are well overdue a replacement. We did not sleep well at all. There is little to no wifi so i wouldnt come with the expectation of having access to the wifi. EE network worked quite well O2 was hit and miss. You only get one toilet roll for the stay per bathroom so make sure you bring your own or alternatively you can buy locally. Its a shame there were no recycling facilities for your rubbish, this should be a must for all lodges/accommodation in this day and age. Overall we had a pleasant stay its just unfortunate the bathroom and bedroom mattresses let us down.
