Lovely lodge in a scenic area. A lot to like about this place but some things not so good. This lodge is advertised as having 2 bathrooms, but in fact only has one. Not a huge issue for us, as there was only two of us, but I can see it being a problem if a group of 4 friends stayed.The kitchen is not that well equiped. It has a lovely open plan area and lots of cupboard space.....Too much to be honest for the quantity of people who can stay! A very smart built in Fridge/Freezer and Washer/Dryer. There were no serving dishes or spoons, no egg cups and the selection of drinking glasses were poor. Not a great choice of cooking pans either. The dishwasher wasn't working (a note had been left to this effect), which isn't a major issue but when you pay a reasonably high price to stay, you do expect everything to work. There was no information about how anything electrical worked and it was trial and error for a couple of days to figure it all out. The clock on the wall didn't work either.There is no information about things to do or see in the area either which would be really helpful as we were here for a week and wanted to see as much as we could.The hot tub was lovely and it was very enjoyable to sit in it after a days sight seeing. However this wasn't working effectively either. Some of the jets in the tub are not working properly or at all. The double bed was comfortable and we defintely slept well. The bulbs in the lamps on the bedside cabinets though were dreadful. They gave off very little light and as we like to read when we go to bed, we had to go and buy brighter bulbs in Ulverston. The standard of cleanliness was very good and we had been left spare towels and coffee pods for the coffee machine towards the end of our stay. We didn't use any of the pods though.All in all a lovely spot that has been well thought out and the fact there are only 5 lodges here, you aren't overrun with other guests. If you aren't a fan of Peacocks or Hens, then not the place for you! There are quite a lot of them wandering about. The peacocks in particular liked to come and sit on the seating area and beside the hot tub most days, but they did move if you came out onto the decking. The hens were quiet friendly and we made the mistake of leaving the door open from the sitting room one morning and they were quite happy to wander in!!
