Rampsbeck Lodge offers a stunning location with direct lake access and beautiful gardens. Guests appreciate the peaceful surroundings and the property's proximity to local attractions. While the lodge provides a comfortable stay with a friendly host, there are several mentions of a damp smell in the bedroom, which lacks a window, and some dated furnishings.
The lodge is generally considered clean, but the persistent damp smell in the bedroom has affected the perception of cleanliness for some guests.
The location is highly praised for its beauty, tranquility, and easy access to the lake and local sights, making it a prime spot for relaxation and exploration.
The lodge is found to be comfortable with a cosy bed and sufficient space. However, the lack of a window in the bedroom and the damp issue have compromised comfort for some visitors.
Facilities are adequate for a break away, but concerns about the reliability of amenities and maintenance issues, such as a broken key and difficulty locking the door, have been raised.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches from the host that would indicate thoughtfulness. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

This little flat was in an amazing location. The gardens were stunning which lead down to the jetty on Ullswater itself.The views were spectacular rain or shine. Rabbits running freely was a delight.Fab location to Pooley Bridge which is a delightful little place with lovely little shops and plenty of places to eat! The flat was comfortable although dated but the only issue was the damp smell in the bedroom. It was very strong to the point I had to wash all my clothes when I got home due to the smell! There is no window in the bedroom and with the bath/shower been in the room I suspect the dampness comes from everyone showering and bathing!

A great place to stay and enjoy all the Lake District has to offer. Patricia is a lovely host. The lodge has everything you need for a break away. Comfy bed, cooking space and plenty of space to relax. The location is amazing! Beautiful grounds that lead directly onto the lake.

We were never confident that the facilities at the property would function properly at the end of a long day's walking. The property is dated and has damp issues. This was not the home from home I expected.
