Robin's Nest in Windermere is highly praised for its cleanliness, stunning location, and comfort. Guests appreciate the well-maintained lodge with its homely feel and proximity to the lake. The added extras such as games, DVDs, and toys are a hit with families, contributing to a delightful stay.

Guests consistently note the lodge's cleanliness, with many reviews highlighting it as spotless and well-maintained. One mention of confetti on the floor suggests a minor oversight, but overall, the standard of cleanliness is very high.

The lodge's location is frequently applauded, with its proximity to the lake and local attractions being a major draw. The scenic views and easy access to Windermere make it an ideal spot for visitors.

Comfort is a recurring theme, with guests finding the beds comfy and the lodge spacious. The presence of en-suite facilities and a large decking area for relaxation contribute to the overall comfort.

The lodge is well-equipped with games, toys, and entertainment options, though there are isolated reports of Wi-Fi issues and a non-functioning oven. These are minor compared to the overall positive feedback on the lodge's amenities.

The owners' thoughtfulness is evident through the provision of games, toys, and local information. While these personal touches are highly appreciated, it is noted that such extras are subject to change and not guaranteed.

    Clean and comfortable, I will definitely look to book the lodge again if I am in the area. 2 minor pointers ... Small waste bins in bathrooms and maybe a nest of coffee tables in the lounge would be advantageous as the lounge is spacious and the one large coffee table doesn't serve both sofas adequately for comfort. However these minor points didn't affect our stay. Would recommend

  • Lee

    Me and my to girls loved the place. It’s large very clean and very comfortable. The girls even asked if they could take the beds home ha. The perfect stay. The only negative is that we didn’t book to stay longer but will definitely be back

  • Sarah
