Fourth time weve stayed here - perfect base for a holiday in the Lakes. Waking up looking out down the valley is so great and easy access to the best bits of the Lakes and nearby Keswick.

Great location with fantastic views. Basic kitchen equipment, ok for breakfast & quick lunch but dinner is a challenge.

Beautiful location with stunning views. The bed was really comfortable, the shower was great. Just not super practical to spend much time in or cook properly. I feel like its a little over priced.

The lodge was more than adequately equipped for my needs, bed was very comfy and I really appreciated the shower after a day on the fells. Loved being able to sit on the porch and look across to Skiddaw and watch the sheep and chickens doing their thing. My only niggle was the cleaning wasn't as attentive to detail as it perhaps should have been. ORead morether than that I really enjoyed my stay. Hide

Compact lodge with everything you need for a comfortable holiday. There is a combi oven but no instructions for use but thankfully we were able find these on the internet. Delightful location to explore the northern fells.
