Notes: The Lodge sleeps 7 people comfortably with the use of a double sofa bed in the living area. Although the Lodge is self-catering there are two restaurants on the park which are open for breakfast, lunch, dinner and bar snacks, as well as a shop and fast food takeaway. All bed linen is provided and beds will be made up on arrival. NO SMOKING in the lodge please. Please remember to extinguish smoking materials safely outside on the decking as it is of course timber and is surrounded by trees and grass areas! The lodge is in an envious spot on the holiday park - quiet and peaceful away from the main bar/restaurant areas giving it an 'away from it all' feel, but the facilities are all nearby should you need them!. The best of both worlds we think! Outside there is a large split level decked area with plenty of outside seating and two tables and BBQ. A weekly pass for a family of 4 for the leisure facilities costs £50 and is payable at White Cross Bay. Daily passes also available.

Just wanted to say thank you for a wonderful weekend in the lodge.
It was just what we wanted - a great location, beautifully decorated
and very well equipped - a really relaxing time was had by all! We
were also extremely lucky with the weather and had a great walk from
Hawkshead out of the book of walks in the cabin (a very thoughtful
touch). K Borthwick, Manchester
Brilliant location, recommend the restaurant on site, superb meal. The Bellamys, Shipley, W Yorks
A real home from home, beautiful views of the lake. J Jackson, Lincolnshire

Lakeside Lodge

Bad smells Hartlepool
Review Submitted: September 3, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Just spent break here with family. It was a very pretty site in a brilliant location. Children loved riding around on their bikes and playing in the river. However we were disappointed with the lodge. When entering the twin bedded room there was a horrible smell, after investigating we found a pair of smelly socks under one of the beds. The smell was that strong that I don't know how the cleaner could not have smelt it. The on-suite in the main bedroom smelt really damp and this over flowed into the bedroom. There was no bedding for the pull out bed in the lounge and we had to phone up and wait for someone to bring some (this bed was very uncomfortable to sleep on).The microwave did not work and when the lady came with the bedding she said the last people had burnt the motor out and she would have to report it. On the top of the letter we received when booking, it says, Luxury Lodge so we were expecting something special. Although we enjoyed our holiday we feel that this lodge needs some extra care and attention to bring it up to the standards of what we would expect a luxury lodge to be.

Feed the ducks!

4 adults,2 kids Northallerton
Review Submitted: August 26, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We have just spent an excellent week in the cabin. Lots of space for 2 children, 8 and 6, to play in and out of the cabin.
Internal quibbles - not much storage space in small bedrooms, spotlights not working in dining area and the under cabinet lights in kitchen were a bit dodgy.
Plus points: the proximity to the lake even if this summer there are lots of leaves around and not much sunshine, lots of ducks and swans to feed, a place for hardy souls to paddle safely in the lake.
Minus points: Very little to do on site. The play area is really for young children and the cost for using the pool was a shock. Consequently we didn't use it. We could have done with a few more cooking pots for the 6 of us.
All in all this was a beautiful place to spend a holiday. Lots of tourist hotspots very near(although the roads can be a bit hairy) and a warm,clean welcoming cabin to which to return.

A very pleasant week.

Mum, Dad + 2 teenage lads Hertfordshire
Review Submitted: August 11, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Stayed in this lodge for a week and had a very relaxing time. Other reviews mention the uncomfortable matresses but can confirm that this has been put right - brand new, extremely deep and comfortable matresses arrived half way through our stay and my tall, teenage boys said they were excellent. Reviews also mention the lodge being under shady trees which is true, and unfortunately with the leaves on the trees at this time of year the view of the lake is not as good as it might be. However, I think you'd be hard pushed to find accommodation much closer to the lake and my husband who loves to sail was delighted with the close proximity of a launch point so close to the lodge. Really loved the sound of the stream which runs close by. The evening shade did not stop us enjoying several bbqs on the ample decking and given we were out most days the shade was not that much of a problem. Only very minor gripe was that there were no hooks to hang anything on - this would make life much easier in the bathrooms and bedrooms!
Site facilities were good - swimming pool, shop, bar etc.
All in all a good stay and would use again.

Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Just to say this is a lovely lodge which was clean and equipped with all you need. The only downside was that from the picture of the lodge it looked as though it had a bright outlook and that the sun shone onto the lodge, however, the lodge is completely covered to the front with a huge oak tree that keeps the outside dull at all times with only streams of light coming in. The decking area and furniture could do with a good clean too.
