Five Star Lodge

The directions to Chesters Lodge were easy to follow. The property is in a beautiful setting and the interior of this upside down house is of high quality. Lots of space for 2 adults and 5 grandkids to relax and play with the lake nearby and Coniston, Ambleside and Windermere a short car journey away. Highly recommend a stay here.

Stunning Lake District Lodge

Four adults stayed at Chester’s Lodge for a week aged from late 50’s to late 60’s. The Lodge is very luxurious with every amenity that you are likely to need, situated in a peaceful setting relatively close to Lake Coniston. The host Sarah is very quick to respond to queries and questions. This was our second visit and I am sure we will return again.

Beautiful lodge, tranquil area

We really enjoyed our peaceful days here. The host was superbly responsive and gracious. The lodging was clean, spacious, comfortable. The only critique we had was that the upstairs floors creak very loudly when someone is walking on them. Not an issue for most, but consider if you have early risers + late / light sleepers within your group (creak is loud in downstairs bedrooms). Absolutely would stay here again.

Chester Lodge is fantastic, in fact the pictures don’t do it justice. Showers are excellent, with good water pressure. Lots of tech features, lighting, sound speakers etc. Good base for exploring, with lovely walks and views. We had glorious weather, the wet gear did not come out once :) Sarah was very responsive to any questions we had. Would highly recommend, we hope to return at some point.

Superb house stay

Amazing house nestling in a small development. It’s upside down, with bedrooms below and a large open plan area above. Very well equipped kitchen and enough televisions to prevent any arguments about what to watch. Ideal location for exploring the southern lakes. Would recommend boat tour of the lake on the National Trust boat Gondola and the walks around Grizedale Forest (weather permitting!). Swimming in the lake (a short walk away) is a treat for those who like cold water and there is also the possibility of a canoe trip to the Swallows and Amazons island. All in all a memorable stay in a great house in a wonderful location. Highly recommended.

Wow, what a lovely, private and elegant place to stay, right on top of Lake Coniston.

We had a change of plans at the last minute, Antigua will have to wait until another time! We couldn't have chosen a better place, a very spacious, private large cabin, right on top of Lake Coniston. The cabin itself was five star, everything you would want and more. From booking to leaving was effortless. You would wake up to see the sheep, pheasants and the open countryside. It was a delight coming back after a days walking, driving. I would defiantly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a first class experience. Total relaxation. Thank you for the experience.

Wish it had wheels!

Amazing lodge that we would like to put on wheels and take with us on future adventures. Beautiful location. We had daily sheep visits and even an owl made an appearance on our last evening. All the mod cons. Drying room very useful. Showers were lovely. We had a slight issue with the internet connection (network provider) and Sarah and Steven responded extremely quickly and were on the case sorting it out, which was very much appreciated. We had an amazing week. The weather wasn’t great but didn’t stop us. At the end of the day it was comforting to know we were going back to the lovely lodge.
