This is a a really lovely lodge and we had a fantastic time despite the poor weather we had most of our holiday. The view and location of the accommodation is the big selling point for us! It was also very clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!

Great accommodation with incredible views, located in a decent area just a short drive from Keswick. The accommodation was not the cleanest upon our arrival with a number of cobwebs and dead flies inside. The cottage management team was not overly helpful during our stay which was disappointing - lacking good customer service. Lots of privacy, occaRead moresional traffic but mostly quiet in the area. Sadly let down by the team that is supposed to be guests point of contact during stays. Hide
