Enjoyed a fantastic 3 nights stay at Lama Lodge. Directions and check-in easy. Accommodation situated in a fantastic location, just a short walk from the centre of Hawkshead. Accommodation very private, cosy, and practical. Would most certainly stay again.

We stayed here for a little Xmas break between Christmas and new year. It was last minute and relativity cheap for the Lake District. As soon as we booked at had key safe instructions and were given the directions for how to get there. Tucked away behind some bungalows we arrived at the cottage. The key was in the door waiting for us. Upon arriving we went in and found some chips in the microwave which had obviously not been cleaned. This did put doubt in our minds as to the cleanliness of the property. However over all the property was really warm and the bed was very comfty. All of the cooking utensils were there that we needed to cook and save that little extra money rather than eating out. The tv worked great and the internet was good for what we needed it for. The shower was hot and very lovely after a long wainwright walk. The walk into hawk head was a prefect distance and brilliant for a quick drink before heading back and staying in for the night. I would 100% stay there again when we want to return.
