Guests say
Guests consistently praise this Kendal cottage for its beautiful views, peaceful setting, and well-equipped, clean interiors. The private hot tub is a highlight, adding a touch of luxury to the stay. The location is ideal for exploring the Lake District, with easy access to walks and local attractions. While the lodge is compact, it is thoughtfully designed and comfortable for small groups or couples. Some guests noted limited privacy during busy periods due to its position on a campsite, and a few mentioned minor maintenance suggestions. Overall, the property offers a charming and relaxing retreat.
Cleanliness is frequently highlighted, with guests describing the lodge as spotless, extremely clean, and well presented. Only one review mentioned a cold hot tub possibly due to late cleaning, but this was a rare exception.
The location is widely appreciated for its scenic views, tranquillity, and proximity to Kendal and the Lake District. Some guests noted the need for a car to access amenities, and a few mentioned reduced privacy when the campsite is busy.
Most guests found the lodge comfortable and cosy, with good storage and warmth. However, a few reviews mentioned issues with mattress comfort and creakiness, and some noted the compact size, though this did not detract significantly from their stay.
Facilities such as the hot tub, kitchen appliances, and storage are praised. Suggestions for improvement included more hooks, a mop or brush, and better outdoor storage. The hot tub was occasionally cold on arrival, but overall amenities met or exceeded expectations.
There are no specific mentions of welcome gifts or extra thoughtful touches beyond standard amenities, so a score cannot be provided for this category.
