About this property

Fir Tree is a delightful 2 bedroom holiday lodge situated in a quiet, woodland location at White Cross Bay with private, gated decking and its own hot tub for the ultimate relaxing break. Sleeping four, plus room for an infant in a travel cot, it’s a delightful base from which to explore the beautiful Lake District. When you get back after your busy day out what better than to relax in the hot tub and simply chill out on the deck, enjoying the countryside all around you. The large open plan indoor space has plenty of room for all your gear and space to watch TV together, prepare food and chat. White Cross Bay is in one of the most lovely settings on the shores of lake Windermere, with jetties and a marina and views of the magnificent fells all around. On the Park itself, there is a bar and restaurant with outdoor seating area for dogs, picnic area and children’ play zone. Note: Some facilities on the park are subject to extra cost such as use of the pool, entertainment, bar and restaurant. 500 yards up the main A591 is Brockhole Lake District Visitor Centre, with a great way to spend a day with gardens, house, café, restaurant, walks, boats, adventure playground and Tree Top Trek: there’s lots to do! You’re also just two miles from bustling Windermere village with shops, cafes and pubs, and three miles from Bowness boat landings, where the elegant cruisers come in and you can hop on a boat trip. Bowness is a cosmopolitan village with award-winning restaurants and pubs and quirky shops, a cinema and the ever- popular World of Beatrix Potter attraction. Three miles in the other direction, head to Ambleside, another bustling town with shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants and of course, fabulous walks in every direction. Two miles north on the A592 is the pretty village of Troutbeck, home to two traditional pubs with log fires, great food and ales: The Queens Head and the Mortal Man. You’ll also discover beautiful Holehird Gardens, and the National Trust’s fascinating Townend House. Further on you climb up to the magnificent Kirkstone Pass, then drop down to Brotherswater & Ullswater. Make some lasting memories on your holiday in the beautiful Lake District.

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.

    The wine on arrival was a nice little touch and the lodge had everything we could have wanted and needed.The place was very clean,comfortable, and cosy. The hot tub was a big hit and the decking area was very safe for our dog. We will hopefully be returning soon.

    The lovely touch of wine and fudge was much appreciated. We have booked this lodge multiple more times and I would not hesitate to book for next year. Thanks again to the host for allowing us to share this special lodge. See you in July :)

  • Jason

    Fir Tree Lodge was ideal, beautiful location, easy to drive to other villages and even with the rain the hot tub was a delight. We will definitely be booking again to stay there.
