About this property

Resting at the heart of the quiet village of Troutbeck on Limefitt Park, is this lovely holiday home, Highfield Lodge. Perfect for families, this charming lodge boasts terrific positioning to nearby attractions and is nestled between two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Welcoming six guests and one well-behaved dog, this property makes an excellent base for exploring the Lake District National Park and surrounding Cumbrian countryside.

Inside, make full use of the open-plan living space, where the well-equipped kitchen is brilliant for making your favourite family meals, whilst a well-thought out sitting area invites the whole family to unwind as you enjoy a film. The electric fire is fantastic on those winter nights after a long day exploring the Lake District. As the evening grows darker, retreat to one of three bedrooms, including a plush king-size with en-suite shower room, where you can relax and get a good night sleep ready for the next day. Explore your local surroundings by taking a short stroll to your nearest pub, the Mortal Man, The Queens in troutbeck and the Haybarn Inn, a perfect stop for a pint or even some pub grub if you fancy a break from cooking one evening.

Be sure to stop off at the National Trust landmark of Townend farmhouse on your journey into nearby Windermere and Bowness where The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction provides hours of entertainment for the whole family, whilst the eponymous Lake Windermere serves up some of the region’s most breathtaking scenery. Further afield is Brockhole Visitors Centre providing an afternoon worth of fun. The town of Ambleside is accessible by car, home to the historic Roman Fort, as well as the stunning Stock Ghyll Force, an impressive seventy-foot waterfall. Enjoy all of this and more by booking a stay at Highfield Lodge.

In close proximity to the Kirkstone Pass, the sleepy Lakeland community of Troutbeck may be located between its more well-known neighbours Windermere and Ambleside. The settlement, which is made up of a variety of homes, cottages, and farms, is dispersed along a curvy road that is enclosed by a drystone wall. Most of these structures are from the 17th century and have characteristics like mullioned windows and large cylindrical chimneys; the northern end also has a 17th-century inn. The thriving towns of Windermere and Ambleside nearby are well-liked by tourists and offer a variety of amenities to suit all preferences. Boat excursions are available on Lake Windermere, including the lakeside ferry to Grizedale Forest Park and the Lakeside Aquarium. Children will love the "World of Beatrix Potter" in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life.

    Never lack in anything well worth the money park well run very nice quiet holiday we would really consider coming back

  • Julie

    The site isn’t as nice as Whitecross Bay or Fallbarrow and we found the lodges crammed in almost on top of each other so no privacy when sitting out on the decking. We were also not impressed with parking for one car only.

  • Jane

    The lodge has everything you should need and was very clean from a personal view we would prefer a washing machine instead of a dishwasher however cannot fault it still and we will be back again. Thank you
