  One of our best family UK stays yet!

  We ended up being moved to Millstream Ridge due to an issue with the Beeches. We we're informed ahead of time and got the key code before we even left our home. Sarah was great at sorting us out. It's the same layout and just a few cabins up so this review will cover the original lodge too. On arrival there were some lovely touches with fresh milk and local produce provided. The cabins are away from the hustle and bustle, and with little traffic made a safe space for us to explore (we have a 4 year old). Also great to retreat back to in the evenings after a full day out. The lodge itself was modern, clean and well layed out, and had a lovely patio overlooking the wildflowers.Out of all the lodge style homes we've stayed in, this was by far the most equipped and homely feel lodge. The washing machine came in handy especially after a trip to Go Ape. Location wise we were 20 mins by car from Windermere, Grizedale and Ulveston and the steam train station was 4 mins in the car. Perfect for a rainy day with little ones. It did get busy so get there a good 20-30 mins before the train departs. We really got to explore all parts of the local area which was fab as there was lots to keep all entertained. We did a quick shop at m&s about 15 mins away, they picked up a few bits from the local towns when we were out and about. Overall we had a fab time and we're looking forward to booking again next year!

  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 other than perfect.

  This lodge was perfect in every way. Immaculate throughout. Everything looked brand new from the kitchen, the shower, through to the soft furnishings. The park itself was a tranquil haven away from the bustling towns of Ambleside, and Bowness. Yet both within a short drive away. The lodge was situated in what we considered to be the best plot on the park. Light and airy, with fabulous views from every window. We didn't want to leave. Contrary to some other reviews, the sofas and beds were very comfortable, and the outside furniture also. We ate once in the onsite pub, food was delicious, and reasonably priced. Plenty walks straight from the door, including several Wainrights. Thankyou for a lovely stay, we'll be booking again for next year.

  It’s important to note that this is my sixth stay at this site in Haverthwaite since the beginning of the year (2024), therefore I knew what to expect before I arrived.

  But I was staying in a different lodge this time that faced the woods rather than the river Leven. It was lovely to open the curtains on Saturday morning and see that a small area had been given over to re-wilding. A carpet of flowers greeted me blowing gently in the breeze. This is, like all the other lodges on the site, a serene haven and outstanding in every respect. Fixtures and fittings - you will not sleep in a more comfortable bed anywhere, a Smart TV, two delightful en-suite bedrooms and fluffy towels. You know from the moment you arrive you have stepped into a classy get away from it all, home from home, environment. This is as good as it gets and every lodge is outstanding. I’ll be back as soon as possible.
