A wonderful lodge in a quiet, picturesque setting. Enjoyed the loveliest midweek break in comfortable, clean and welcoming surroundings. Such a peaceful location which was a good base to explore the lakes. The hot tub was great and the lodge well equipped with great showers in both bathrooms. The alpacas and peacocks were lovely company! Would certainly recommend.

Love Pine Lodge, lost count of how many times we have stayed here, love the animals, the hot tub, the view and the peace! Ulverston is close by for walks and shops this time we walked the Ulverston Canal Walk, got some amazing meat from Irvings Butchers and had Sunday Lunch at the Farmers. It is our happy place and cant wait to return!
