  Lovely lodge in a nice quiet location.

  Our dog loved watching the rabbits and hens playing near the pond, with the occasional red squirrel making a visit. The lodge was nice and clean. The kitchen was stocked with everything you'd need for self catering, more than usual for other lodges, which was a nice touch. We were welcomed with a couple of complementary drinks in the fridge. Only downside is there are what we think to be mice venturing into the roof or wall cavities. Every night between 11-3am we were woken up to loud scratching and gnawing noises in the ceiling above the bed. One night in particular it continued for about an hour, it sounded as if something was attempting to gnaw its way into the room, I had to resort to knocking the ceiling with the sweeping brush in the hopes of scaring it off, I even popped outside to to make sure there was nothing on the roof, whatever it is sounds determined to get in, as it kept coming back.

  This place should be available on prescription as a cure for the stresses of life.

  The location was perfect for exploring the Lakes from the coast to the top of the highest mountain in England. There is quite literally everything you need in the lodge which was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully organised. The welcome pack of milk, but juice, wine and beers was a nice gesture too, t The lodge is situated at the end of the site, so no cars are passing, ensuring plenty of privacy too. In addition, there is the pleasure of watching the cheeky red squirrels that turn up throughout the day to feed and scamper about just outside the doorway. Although the weather was not great when we stayed, the lodge is well located to explore other attractions and near local shopping for food or for dining out. We are already planning to return as we felt so at home there.

  What can I say….

  This lodge was an amazing home from home, comfortable there was absolutely everything you could need well equipped, high quality and clean. We personally have had a few difficult weeks after loosing a parent suddenly, this was just what we needed to help. We visited and had walked a few places, so much was close by, as a base this was perfect would definitely come again. Ambleside was our favourite place to see, walked from the site up past the Mortal man (stopped in on way back) to the top of Wansfell, did Rydal caves and High Sweden bridge walk such a beautiful area and the Hardknock pass. Could have stayed much longer. Thank you to the owners for making our Christmas 24 a little bit special at tough time. Definitely a 10/10

  This is a lovely cottage which is full of character and located in a beautiful setting. The cottage is equipped with everything you could wish for including very good wifi and there was even a Tassimo coffee machine. Louise, the owner has thought of everything whilst retaining the essence of a stone built cottage and was the perfect host with great communication, help and advice. The log burner and plentiful supply of logs made our winter stay even cosy and very homely. This cottage is ideal for those with dogs in terms of location for walks, the secure garden and flag stone floors which are easy to clean from muddy paws. We cannot recommend this cottage enough. We will definitely return.

  Just returned from a fabulous girls weekend at this lodge.

  Lovely location and well-kept site. The beds were super comfy, and the bathrooms look brand new. After a day exploring, we decided to relax and have a night in. The kitchen was well stocked with ample cutlery, crockery and utensils. Plenty of glasses for the fizz and gin! Nice dining table and comfortable sofas so we could relax and watch a film afterwards. The decor is classy and modern and in the warmer weather it would be lovely to sit outside on the decking to eat and enjoy the views. As frequent visitors to The Lakes this is one of the more upmarket lodges that we have stayed in and we would definitely return.
