    Good location very comfortable perfect for what we wanted The owner was very accommodating and helpful as we managed to check in earlier than expected

    Andy was great with his communication about the lodge which made for an easy start and arrival. The lodge was in a great location and the park felt peaceful and relaxed and in a great spot for exploring. We enjoyed paddle boarding, canoeing and a trip on the steamer boats as well as plenty of walking and exploring. The lodge itself was lovely, comfortable and spacious with great facilities. The hot tub and decked area was a lovely addition for a relaxing evening. We had a minor issue which Andy responded to immediately- so reassuring when you are just wanting to relax on holiday. Thank you for a great experience!

    Enjoyed days out at Brockhole, hired a boat, Lakeland Maze Farm + Honister Slate Mine. But mostly enjoyed a wee paddle in the lakes, have for BBQ and sit on the decking before relaxing in the hot tub. Thank you
