  Overall an excellent stay.

  Some absolutely fantastic views from the veranda. Makes you feel you are in the heart of the Lakes. Cleanliness was very good generally. The only thing that let it down was some food residues left on cooking utensils, cutlery, etc. This meant we felt we needed to run everything through the dishwasher before using, just to be safe. But other than that, the cleanliness was superb. Maybe if the cleaner had been paid for just 15 minutes more, they'd have had the time to sort out this one issue? The cabin had excellent facilities and was nice and warm, even during the cold and blustery storms we had. 15-minute walk into central Keswick, so fairly well situated. Note that facilities on the site were a little lacking. No recycling at all, which is pretty much unacceptable, these days in our opinion. so we ended up bringing all of our plastic, tins, and glass back home with us, as it didn't feel right to just bin it. Also, be aware that no shop or other facilities on site. If you are after a property that is comfortable, warm, well equipped, with great views, you will not be disappointed.

  We had a fab stay at Rivendell Lodge.

  It certainly was home from home. Very cosy on cold days with the most amazing views to Lattrigg and Skiddaw. We were sad to leave, but will definately return for another visit. Just a short walk into Keswick, and with The Pheasant pub just down the road, we had a delicious meal there. The only negative point I would make is having to vacate the property at 9:30 am. The property listing actually states 10:am. On that note we decided to pack up and leave the previous afternoon, as didn't want to rush on the morning of departure. But thankyou to the owners, this is a lovely, well equipped property, and our dog had a great time too.

  Well equipped cottage.

  Very good washing machine/dryer and dishwasher and excellent range of dishes, glasses etc. Loved the view from the raised decking area. Main issue was the fairly thin mattress in the main bedroom. As a result, my husband could feel the join in the base through the mattress. We did manage to overcome the problem by using some extra cushioning between the mattress and base but something to be aware of. There was also a bit of dust on the towel rail and on some of the glasses. I did have to wipe down the front of the fridge on arrival, as this had been missed. Overall, a very enjoyable holiday.

  We enjoyed our stay very much.

  Sadly the freezer part of the fridge had not been defrosted, for weeks I would say, as that was my first task as we had a small amount of frozen products and needed to use it. The owners emailed to say it was faulty, once I had cleaned it, no problem. A heavier tog duvet would have been nice as it was a bit chilly, and as we found the instructions for the heaters very confusing, but then we are both well into our 80's so no surprise there !! Overall a lovely week and would recommend and would love to return. Would have been very smiley faces but for the above mentioned hiccups.

  We loved the location of the lodge - it is in a very private and quiet part of the site.

  The hot tub was lovely and we enjoyed the wine and chocolates. The lodge itself is very comfortable and spacious for the two of us. There were a couple of minor things that would make the stay perfect. We needed a wooden spoon and some serving spoons while cooking. Also, a dustpan and brush and some cleaning products would be great. Instructions would be helpful, especially for where to put rubbish and recycling as there do not seem to be any communal bins on the site. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this lodge to friends and family. Thank you.
