“Stayed at the Buttermere Lodge for the 2nd year running and this time we stayed on dates 16th September 2019 until 23rd September 2019 and we couldn't have picked a better week for the weather.”
The location of the Buttermere Lodge is a stones throw away from the Centre of Bowness which is ideal. When we arrived the lodge was as we remembered but on settling in to the lodge on our first day we noticed it wasn't as clean as we thought. We found a stain on the carpet near the bathroom door, toe-nail clippings in the sitting room, splash marks up the main doors and the kitchen cupboard doors and it was very dusty around the beds and this was only noticed when we nudged the bed slightly and it appeared to have loads of fluff. I would say though, that once we noticed this, we contacted Lake District Lodge Holidays and within an hour, the cleaner was there to give it a thorough clean and we were very happy with the lodge moving forward so the service was second to none. I think the lodge is starting to see small signs of wear and tear wit ha lot of spiders webs which I think should be cleaned for the arrival of each customer and the lodge is expensive having paid nearly

Thanks for writing a review of your latest stay at Buttermere Lodge, Gary. We were sorry you had a couple of cleanliness issues and we were pleased to get these attended to promptly. The cleaners who prepare the lodge have been reminded of their responsibilities relating to this. The owners take great pride in the lodge and are always improving it's standard where they are able. There has been a new bathroom installed recently and the lodge has had the outside rails and spindles stained. As a returning guest you got a significant discount which reduced the price to well below what you have suggested above. Buttermere Lodge is very popular with guests all year round and a lovely place to stay especially with it's relaxing outside hot tub.
