Fabulous lodge stay

Lovely lodge with all mod cons and everything you could possibly need for your stay. In a great position with a good view of Bassentwaite Lake. Brilliant hosts who were so easy to communicate with and who left us chocolate biscuits and a bottle of bubbly in the fridge. They were much appreciated . There is a large field just yards up the road where we were able to exercise our dog, she loved it!We visited Keswick which is just a few miles away and also did a walking trail at Dodd Hill which is just about on the doorstep. We also visited Windermere and Grasmere which again are a fairly short distance away. All in all we had a fabulous time and wouldn’t hesitate to book this lodge again

Excellent Place

The lodge was in an excellent location and probably had the best setting on the park, with amazing views. It is a very spacious and well kept lodge and we felt very much at home and comfortable. It was a perfect place to stay for a holiday in the Lakes.

Absolutely beautiful!.

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay in this beautiful lodge. The location is idyllic every morning we would wander the very short distance to the jetty on the lake and then over to see the sheep and lambs. The view from the lodge was something you could never tire of. The lodge itself was super clean, modern and had everything you needed to make for a perfect stay. A quiet location but a short drive to the shops and restaurants in Keswick.The owners were fab, all details and contacts were with me well before the stay and the bottle of bubbly was a lovely touch. I couldn’t recommend this property and owners enough, our first but not our last visit.
