About this property
Robin View Lodge is a modern holiday lodge situated in the Beckside area of Limefitt Park. The lodge is beautifully designed to offer a welcoming and relaxing break from the moment you arrive. The bright and airy open plan means guests can all get involved in the cooking or planning of activities for their stay. Robin View Lodge benefits from a secluded hot tub so you can relax and take in the surrounding views after a long day walking on the fells. There is also a seating area out on the deck so you can enjoy a glass of wine on warmer evenings. Many guests return year after year to this lovely lodge. Limefitt Park is in a stunningly secluded location in the Troutbeck Valley, on the A592 out of Windermere, but only four miles away from the busy village. Here you’ll enjoy nature and lovely views, and the Trout Beck running through the park. There’s a dog-friendly pub on site, a small shop and children’s playground. From here you can walk through the fields to the fabulous pub The Queens Head, and round the corner to the Mortal Man, both traditional old pubs with log fires and a warm welcome. The Lake District is all about making special memories with your loved ones.
The twin towns of Bowness and Windermere are both vibrant, fun-filled places set within the splendid scenery of the Lake District. Both towns provide a range of amenities, shops and restaurants to suit all tastes whilst Ambleside offers the additional attraction of a boat ride to Bowness, the Lakeside Aquarium and Beatrix Potter's 'Hill Top House' at Sawrey. Grizedale Forest Park is within easy driving distance and is home to a range of activities including many good walks, mountain biking and the 'Go Ape' adventure park. The region also boasts many National Trust properties as well as a variety of water sports for those who prefer a more adrenaline-fuelled trip. Children will enjoy a trip to the 'World of Beatrix Potter' in Bowness whilst the villages of Grasmere, Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains are all within easy reach.

Having the hot tub was great and this was well maintained. Had a lovely stay here and would recommend this to anyone thinking of a holiday here. The park grounds were also well looked after.

Scrapes everywhere, chipped cups, door handle in bathroom broken, mould in bath around the nonslip stickers.

A sofa with no legs for instances isnât really acceptable. Kitchen units all show wear and tear no grill shelf for the oven, a broken cheese grater, no light in the fridge, bathroom door handle in need of a permanent repair, bathroom sink with an almost blocked drain, signs of mould, marked bath from removed antislip mats. Wardrobe doors that donât slide. Individually all are understandable but collectively were a little disappointing.
