  Great facility to get away for a few days.

  Maintenance: Only thing I would suggest sorting out is adding some clear or white silicone sealant to the back of the sink to prevent water damage to the back of the cupboard. Suggestion: One additional toilet roll might be worth adding in the storage cupboard especially as Sunday was a "no go" day with the high winds and rain plus that unexpected "time of month". Travel: There were no shops nearby to get those essential supplies baring in mind we did not have transport. It took an hour and fifty minutes to walk to the BP station on A69, the first day, and one hour to Hayton village on our way home where there may have been some essentials on offer. It was closed on the Monday so we didnt find out. By car, a doddle so don't be put off. For information: the route to Hayton takes you to the A69 and a bus stop to get to Brampton or Carlisle via the 635 bus. This is closer than to the BP garage where the Spar is. Hot tub a must. With dressing gowns and slippers provided, an evening outside is even more relaxing. Unless you have transport, this holiday is for the keen walker. We related to both. Owners were exceptionally helpful and provided some excellent help and advice. Thank you Claire. I rarely return to places as I love travelling but I would return here. It is slightly on the pricey side but with the place to yourself in the middle of nowhere it's worth it. Overall a very cosy place with great outlook. Well equipped for such a small space but used effectively there is plenty of space.

  It was a bit of a gamble booking this lodge as I've never done one before and not knowing what to expect.

  However, the previous reviews gave a very good account and they were right. The lodge was well appointed, clean and well equipped. Having an ensuite bathroom was bonus. Also having a hot tub was fantastic especially after doing a lot of fell walking. My only gripe was that there was an odd smell that from the hot tub area - vegetation and chlorine mix. This came into the lodge near the cupboard by the back door. It was quite noticeable when first entering the lodge. Also the dogs didn't think much of it either. I've made Lake District Lodge park aware of this in another feedback form and they will look into it. The lodge is in a nice location and we didn't hear much noise when staying there. A walk down to the Marina is well worth it and the view is stunning early in the morning especially as the fells had snow on them. There's also a woodland walk that it good for walking dogs in the morning and plenty of dog poo bins. Ambleside is only a few miles away and most areas like Hawkshead, Coniston are not too far away by car. The whole holiday exceeded my expectations and I would recommend staying at the lodge park and the lodge I had. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Love the hot tub and great lodge What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? If you are fit and like walking then do the Old Man at Coniston. The views are well worth the climb up.

  The lodge was ok however the cleaning staff have let you down.

  I have taken pictures if you require them. I understand the lodge accepts dogs, we took ours, french bulldog. When we arrived we had to sweep the floor, it was full of long black dog hair. We swept up three times, all long black dog hair. There was cobwebs in the bedrooms and kitchen, lots of dust on the skirting board in the bathroom. Black mould around the windows in the bedroom, black mould on the back of the bedroom curtains, the bathroom door in the ensuite is filthy and water damaged, the ensuite drain needs looking at as it overflows. If I wanted to be really picky the blinds need cleaning. Had we known it was park of Park Dean we probably would not have booked as there was just two adults and no children. The restaurant was not very clean, the carpet hadn't been hooved the whole time we were there, 6 nights, we left a night early. The tables were sticky however three members of staff, Malcolm, Connor and Ellie were very nice and helpful. The ladies toilets had no hand soap in them for days, the gentleman's toilets were disgusting. We booked this as a chilled weekend because I have been through a year and a half of chemotherapy and my immune system is compromised, Park dean did not help in any way by being dirty!

  I stayed at this property recently for a week with my parents and partner.

  Upon arriving it seemed like a nice little lodge and quite homely. However, the property had not been cleaned very well at all. There were pringles under the coffee table. The bathroom was full of dust around the skirting boards as well as behind the basin. There was dust on both headboards of the bed as well as alot of dust, food packaging and the odd biscuit under the sofa. The lights in the living area also had not been dusted. The filter for the fridge was red so had not been changed as well as it being dirty. When having a shower in the ensuite, the water leaked through the shower screen meaning we had to put towels on the floor all around it to try and stop the floor from flooding. The left hand door on the main does was also faulty, meaning it did not lock at the bottom so was not fully secure. We were all looking forward to our stay here as the photos and description sounded just what we wanted, however, we were rather disappointed considering checking in was 4pm so there was plenty of time to sort the property before we arrived. For the money we spent for this property we do feel we are out of pocket as this had alot of potential, yet due to the points above, let it down immensely.

  Overall the property was really nice and homely.

  The hot tub was a really great too. The whole property was really nice and clean and in a great location. We only had two issues with the property. One was the main bedroom. The mattress was unsuitable and really uncomfortable. You could actually feel the bed base through the mattress. Also the bedding, pillows and duvet should be much better quality for it been a rental. There was also loads of dust and cobwebs behind the headboard (only part on the cabin that wasn’t clean!). The en-suite was done out really lovely but the vent wasn’t working properly so was causing mould in the room. The other issue was the wifi only worked the first night but we now know wifi is to do with the site not the property. Would of been nice to know that while we was there so we could of gone and sorted it. Overall we had a really lovely stay. If the changes where made to the bedroom we would defiantly recommend and stay again. We think a welcome pack would of been a nice personal touch too. Just with some info about the cabin and how everything works. Also maybe some info on the local area and the site. Thank you for a lovely stay.
