The lodge is described as cosy and comfortable, with plush furnishings and a warm atmosphere, although a few guests noted the bedrooms were quite small.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable living spaces. However, there were some reports of maintenance issues such as boiler problems and mildew in the bathroom.

While many reviews highlight the lodge's amenities and comfort, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts, thus a score cannot be provided.

  • Linda

    What a beautiful view, don’t think there could be a better spot in the Lake District, and lodge was very comfortable and well kept

  • Paul

    It was not fixed until 24 hours later. The temperature in the lodge was freezing and this was coupled with no hot water etc. The boiler then went again on Thursday but at least this time it was fixed within a few hours of it being reported

  • Neville

    Our visit was good but was marred by the electricity cut caused by the toaster and it took over 4 hours for somebody to fix it which was an external breaker switch apparently, while we were cold trying to keep warm with blankets
