  This is an honest review of our stay: The lodge is lovely, overlooking onto the small lake, although lodges are quite close together on the lakeside so lack privacy.

  Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was nice and big with useable space, plenty of crockery, utensils etc but only 5 mugs. I recommend plastic glasses be provided for outside drinking (I took my own) Living area nice, comfortable and spacious. Parking for 2 cars. Outdoor sitting area. Had to walk up to the lodge to collect keys then back down to open barrier to allow us to enter. Only one key and fob supplied, we had two cars so asked for an additional fob the following day and this was refused bluntly by the manager at reception (no explanation as to why) so this prevented us from asking anything again. Note - the restaurant is only open Wed-Sun (so check website for accurate information). Spiders! There were cobwebs and spiders inside the living area and on the outside of lodge above external doors/windows (we saw other lodges being cleaned with a brush to get rid of them). The veranda didn’t look like it had been swept so one of our party swept it and brushed the cobwebs from the glass around the veranda inside and outside as the glass was dirty. Could I recommend you put an external light near steps as two of us tripped going up and down. Hot tub is not very private, it also didn’t have a handle to open/close the lid so unfortunately it was only used three times in as it was too heavy/awkward (everywhere we’ve been it’s used at least one a day). Hot tub hours 10:00-22:00 I would have an expected earlier start like 08:00. The hot tub was not maintained once while we were there for chlorine/safety levels (everywhere else we’ve stayed it’s checked daily). TV remotes had batteries missing and in one bedroom the back of remote and one battery was found at the back of lower shelf in cabinet - obviously lack of attention to detail). Toilet paper was found under a bed (was there when we got there as my dog found it). Unfortunately because lack of external cleanliness (lack of attention to detail) non maintenance of hot tub, no external lighting and lack of privacy we won’t be returning to this lodge.

  We felt for the value we paid for the 2 nights that such a late check in and such an early check out doesn't merit the value of the cost.

  There was only one other small pod in use and the housekeeping had completed the cleaning of that by 10.30am. Especially in the off peak week day season these could be adjusted slightly. Going by that example we could've had more time in our pod on our entry and exit days. It was very nice to have the cookies, coffee and tea etc however there was no milk so these were somewhat unusable until we had to travel back to Ingleton to get milk. We had a short power cut which was resolved very quickly by the owners which was appreciated. Overall a beautiful location, pods were modern, clean and well set up. I would put these in the 4 star bracket but little things such as milk or even small toiletries would have made the difference to make it a 5 star to us. Highly recommend for a quiet staycation with plenty of walks and a great pub 3/4 mile walk under Ribblehead Viaduct. Great video of pods on Instagram under Sykescottages

  Having just returned from a two week break at Boavista, what can I say other than the pictures do not do it justice.

  This is an absolutely stunning property and one of the best that we have stayed in which is high praise indeed as we have been staying in rental properties for the past 12 years and have stayed in over 20 properties. The view is excellent across the quarry and many a happy hour was spent in the hot tub on the lower balcony and sitting on the upper balcony, taking in the view. The kitchen equipment was of good quality and there was plenty of it, I would highly recommend this property for anybody wantiing a quiet area and a wind down, Morecambe Bay is within 7 miles if there was more life needed or for a walk along the seafront, there is also Hest Bank on the way to Morecombe, which is quiet and a haven for dog walkers. we hope to go back to Boavista at some point in the future.

  We have just return from an amazing break in this lodge it was absolutely stunning from the moment we stepped in to the lodge and was greeted with a bottle of Prosecco and chocolates.

  The lodge is brand new and has everything you need in it for your break away. Lexi our cockerpoo settled in straight away. There was a washing machine and dishwasher also an en-suite with shower and a main bathroom with shower, the decking is well situated with sun all day. It is situated about a 10 min walk from the pub and reception. The best part of our break we did get to meet the owner who was such a lovely man made sure we were all ok and even told us the best places to go too also pubs and restaurants. This lodge has everything it’s says on the page and the pictures are exactly what it looks like. Amazing find would highly recommend this too anyone we will definitely 100% stay here again thank you Mark Andrea Lexi
