    “We spent 6 wonderful nights at Greengarth Lodge over Xmas.”

    The property had recently been completely renovated with an ensuite walk-in shower room to the main bedroom and a separate bathroom with overhead shower for the 2 other generous sized bedrooms. As I like to cook, the fitted kitchen was a bonus! It was well-stocked with everything you would need in terms of glassware, dinnerware, cutlery and cooking equipment, plus some basic staple foodstuff. I loved the Bora induction hob and the split level Neff oven. Being Xmas week it was to nice to find ...

    The property had recently been completely renovated with an ensuite walk-in shower room to the main bedroom and a separate bathroom with overhead shower for the 2 other generous sized bedrooms. As I like to cook, the fitted kitchen was a bonus! It was well-stocked with everything you would need in terms of glassware, dinnerware, cutlery and cooking equipment, plus some basic staple foodstuff. I loved the Bora induction hob and the split level Neff oven. Being Xmas week it was to nice to find a substantial sized fridge/freezer as well as a wine fridge. The area was open plan, bright, and felt very sociable. There was even a well-equipped utility room with an extra sink, individual washer and dryer. Every single room and space was so well thought out with no shortage of storage space. The property was powered by an air source heat pump for the underfloor heating and solar panels on the roof. It had also been refurbished with porcelain tiling through-out, and being a lodge we were concerned it may have not been warm enough. Far from it, the lodge was exceedingly cosy. We walked around in bare or stocking feet the whole time. My only request to the owner would be brighter lighting in the rear 'quarry' bedroom! The views from the large picture windows across Glendowlin valley were a delight. We'd definitely recommend Greengarth Lodge to our friends and family. A nice touch was the sparkling wine left for us by the owners.

    - Glenis, December 2024

    Dear Glenis, Thank you for your feedback which we appreciate greatly. We will consider how to improve lighting in the quarry bedroom and will update when we have done so. Prior to renovation, this lodge had a 0.5m air gap under the floor, which is standard design but made the lodge cold and drafty in winter. Our renovation replaced the air gap with a solid floor including 30-40 cm insulation and underfloor heating. The heating system is on 24/7 and has been designed to accommodate the most extreme Cumbrian winters. Each room has its own thermostat and guests can set each room to whatever temperature they wish. Thank you, Ian and Alison. Property Owner

About the location

PENRITH

Keswick 17 miles; Carlisle 20 miles.

The bustling market town of Penrith, once the capital of Cumbria, enjoys a central position between the Lake District, the Westmoorland Dales and North Pennines and is ideally placed for taking in all that the region has to offer. Renowned for its wealth of specialist shops, the sandstone buildings of Penrith hide intriguing yards, lanes and alleyways, with a myriad of attractive cottages, gardens and little shops. With a wide choice of excellent pubs, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, Penrith also offers a museum, and Millennium Trails round the historic city streets. Within easy reach of the town is Rheged – an innovative visitor centre with shops, restaurants, exhibitions and a giant cinema screen showing educational and informative films. Brougham Castle, Brougham Hall (The Windsor of the North), Lowther Castle and Gardens, Long Meg and her daughters (the 3rd largest stone circle in England) and the historic city of Carlisle are all a short drive away, as is the stunning scenery of both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
