  It was lovely and quiet and peaceful during our stay at the lodge.

  It was Modern and very well presented and spacious. The lodge is situated in such beautiful surroundings. It has a well equipped kitchen with everything you need and an ample size fridge and freezer where we cooked some lovely evening meals. There is a large Tesco not far away for anything you may need. We had an evening meal in the on-site restaurant which was excellent. You need to book in advance. If you like a takeaway they're available locally too. The site is an ideal base for seeing what the area has to offer. We had beautiful weather for September and we found so much to do during our stay. Ingleton waterfalls trail was a wonderful day out and definitely worthy of a visit but be prepared for a lot of walking to get round one of the routes, but it's so worth it. The waterfalls are stunning. Crazy golf at Greenlands was fun and less than 5 mins drive from the site. Warton Crag Local Nature Reserve is less than 10 mins away. Rspb Leighton moss is less than 15 mins drive. Lakeland Wildlife Oasis is just over 5 mins drive away and is a fabulous place to visit. There is so much to see both inside and outside. There are organised talks throughout the day and the staff were very knowledgeable. The snow leopards were a real treat to see. Lancaster Castle is around 20 minutes drive. We booked onto a tour which was very good. Morecambe Bay is just 20 mins drive also. We also took a boat ride tour from Windemere Lake visiting Ambleside and stopped off at the Windermere Jetty Museum which has a cafe and was lovely to sit outside taking in the glorious views. We also booked an extra small boat trip at the jetty museum, with personal guides which was excellent. The Lakeland motor museum was fabulous. There was so much to see, with gorgeous homecooked food and treats in the cafe too! We had a wonderful time at the lodge and have booked our next visit!

  We enjoyed a wonderful week at Gressingham 7.

  If, like me, you struggle to find the key safe on arrival, it is attached to the wooden fencing, a short way along from the door. The glass balcony gave us fabulous views of the birds on the lake. We spotted coots, grebes and a heron besides the more common (but very entertaining) ducks, swans and geese. The outdoor furniture was a little different (better I’d say) than the photos - still the sofa in the background but the table had 6 chairs for enjoying outdoor meals and the 2 loungers had been replaced with comfy chairs. The weather was unusually hot and the lodge did get rather warm, even with lots of doors and windows open. Maybe a fan could be added to the already extensive array of equipment provided to help with this (admittedly rare) occurrence. The kitchen is well equipped with good, sharp knives - always a bonus. The TV sound is activated by pressing the top left hand corner of the controller on the wall to the right of the TV. The bedrooms have comfy beds and the whole lodge has lots of storage. We’d love to stay again!

  We spent 6 wonderful nights with our family at Waternook Lodge, and the experience was unforgettable!

  Everything was perfect, from start to finish. The lodge is extremely welcoming, warm, and beautifully decorated, offering a sense of comfort and relaxation. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook delicious meals every day – from utensils to modern and high-quality appliances. The rooms are very clean, spacious, and thoughtfully decorated, which greatly contributed to our overall comfort. The entire location has a pleasant and inviting atmosphere, and the area where the lodge is situated is absolutely stunning – perfect for disconnecting from the daily hustle and enjoying nature. We had an amazing time and a dream vacation! I wholeheartedly recommend Waternook Lodge to anyone looking for a peaceful and high-quality holiday. We will definitely return!

  We had a lovely time here - good to be away from busy life.

  The place is brand new and we were the first occupants - a real treat. Everything is beautiful and the design touches subtle enough to keep making discoveries. The log burner was a wonderful part of our stay. Wi-fi unexpectedly superb. The views from the front are spectacular and hold the entire Lake District - so good to see at sunset and clear air first thing in the morning. To the back, views are less good but we learned to focus on the strong positives rather than the negatives. It's located on a working farm and we saw the birth of 2 lambs about 50 feet away. Great access to areas we have never explored before. We would love to return. The owner is super-helpful.

  As a family this was our 2nd stay we loved the lodge can't fault the scenery, and the layout, plus comfort of the beds.

  However this time round we found was lacking on the cleanliness. Leftover mess under the sofa (understand somethings are missed), unstable dining chairs which had to be unused. Broken wireless headphone in oven which caused massive concern as oven was used that could have been a fire waiting to happen, luckily spotted before use, cob webs everywhere inside. I understand that it could be from previous people who stayed who miss treated the property but I imagined cleaners or the owner should have spotted these issues and rectified before another stay. But overall we still managed to have a great stay.
