Guests say
Birch Lodge offers a peaceful and relaxing retreat in a beautiful rural setting, with guests consistently praising its immaculate cleanliness, modern comforts, and well-equipped facilities. The hot tub and visits from friendly animals such as peacocks, chickens, and alpacas are particular highlights. The hosts are noted for their responsiveness and warm hospitality, making guests feel welcome and well cared for. The location is tranquil yet conveniently close to Ulverston and the Lake District’s attractions. Minor issues, such as a worn TV remote and kitchen flooring, are mentioned but do not detract from the overwhelmingly positive experience.
Cleanliness is repeatedly described as outstanding, with many guests noting the lodge was spotless and met very high standards. The hot tub is also mentioned as being cleaned daily. Only one minor mention of worn kitchen flooring, but this did not affect overall impressions.
The location is praised for its peacefulness and proximity to Ulverston and the Lake District. Guests appreciate the tranquil setting with countryside views and easy access to local attractions, though a few note that walking directly from the lodge can be challenging due to narrow roads.
Guests consistently describe the lodge as cosy, comfortable, and homely, with comfortable beds and a warm atmosphere. The peaceful environment and private hot tub add to the sense of relaxation.
Facilities are highly rated, with guests enjoying the well-equipped kitchen, hot tub, and amenities such as a dishwasher and washer/dryer. Minor issues include a worn TV remote and kitchen flooring, but these are outweighed by the overall quality and maintenance.
The hosts are frequently described as responsive, helpful, and welcoming. A complimentary meal was mentioned due to on-site work, but such gifts are not guaranteed. The provision of an information packet and attention to guest needs further reflect thoughtful hosting.

Enjoyed a fabulous 4-night family break at Birch Lodge. Impeccably clean, everything you could need and more! Peaceful, private and wonderfully relaxing. Not much within short walking distance but everything you could ask for within a short drive. Definitely recommend!

Had an amazing stay, unbelievable the photos don't do it justice. The views are amazing. loved waking up to chickens and peacocks and a short walk to see the llamas and if you have carrots you can feed them. lodge was so clean, everything you need, shopping are a small drive away. hot tub was spacious for four people. Jules was on hand to help and her whole family were lovely, even sky and poppy the dogs. we definitely be back soon.
