“Loads of potential.”

Was really looking forward to our holiday and was impressed with the site, facilities and the lodge. Our holiday was ruined by the boiler breaking on Saturday afternoon and no communication until Sunday afternoon. We ended up leaving a day earlier as no hot water or heating. Holiday was ruined. However the lodge is stunning. Just a shame the boiler breaking ruined it for us personally

“First of all, the lodge was lovely the position was good, hot tub was amazing.”

The downside, dirty cutlery, plates, cups, glasses, one was chipped and cracked, cigarette burns on sofa, cigarette stubs in plants pots on decking, cigarette ash on decking, pizza tray needs putting in the bin it was disgusting, the drains absolutely stunk to high heaven. The hoover was full and had not been emptied, which we had to do as well as wash everything, the oven was filthy.

“Beautiful property in the perfect location.”

Showing signs of wear and tear Not the cleanest on arrival - kitchen area. Facilities great would have liked to sit by the open fire as alot quieter room than boathouse but unfortunately just for owners. Hot tub was lovely and hot - decking very slippy. This lodge needs its own WIFI the on-site wifi was terrible. Overall we had a lovely stay - visited zip world took a bus to grassmere - Ambleside- and dungeon gryll. We took are own Kyak and made the most of the lake!

- Amy, October 2024
Rachel October 2024

“Overall it was a good lodge.”

Plenty of space for a family of 6, the beds are very comfy. The location is nice, tucked away. The hot tub is very private. It is a tad run down, with a few areas of showing wear and age, particularly in the bathrooms, around the windows, these could do with being dealt with. On the whole these signs of wear didn’t detract of the lodge being very comfortable and cosy. We had a great stay there.

“Great lodge.”

Comfortable and really well equipped. Lovely sun trap on the decking and the hot tub is amazing

Diane July 2024

“We had a wonderful week in Easdale Lodge for the 2nd year in a row.”

Great Location in a quiet cul de sac. The lodge has everything you could need plenty of cups, plates, glasses etc. Hot tub was fabulous and checked every day. Would highly recommend this lodge we are gutted that it is already booked for next year.

Andy June 2024

“Easedale Lodge was a lovely property, well furnished and a good size.”

We had a great time staying there, which could have been enhanced by two points. The directions to the lodge itself were poor and it took a long time to find, a site map would have helped, and there was no where to BBQ. Although a gas BBQ was there, there was no gas canister. If w had know we would have bought our own small canister.

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to see that you enjoyed your stay at Easedale. We take all suggestions and comments on board. Thank you The Lake District Lodge Owner Relations Team Property Owner

“Beautiful lodge which has the perfect location .”

Just a couple of issues which have been shared in previous reviews , but unfortunately not been resolved . Doors in bathroom and en suite need attention , don’t close properly and stick Kitchen tap is dripping and the drains smell from the sink Apart from the above , we loved our stay and would recommend to anyone

- Julie, June 2024
Susan June 2024

“The property was clean and well presented and we had a lovely time there.”

My only criticism was the leaky cold tap on the kitchen sink and the door to the en-suite did not open and close properly but other than that it was very good

“Having stayed at white Cross with family over 5 times and being very familiar with this particular lodge, I can honestly say it must be one of the best pitches on the site.”

The sun, when it shines, shines on this lodge 12 hours a day on a large decking. It’s located in a very quiet cul de sac and isn’t overlooked. The interior has been modernised since our last stay, and is lovely. Very spacious, very clean and everything you could need is there. We’ll definitely be back.

- Wendy, May 2024
Angela May 2024

“Easedale is a lovely lodge and everything you need for a comfortable stay.”

Very clean and everything in good working order. Would definitely recommend. As others have mentioned, the ensuite bathroom door sticks midway opening, so I reported that for attention after we left. Hopefully that will now get sorted out.

- Angela, May 2024
Sonya May 2024

“This is the second time I have stayed In this lodge with friends, and again we have had the most fantastic time and made amazing memories.”

The lodge was spotless and clean, very very comfy with lots of amenities. The hot tub was lovely and warm and again very clean. Location is perfect for everything, swimming pool etc and surrounding area very clean and tranquil. Perfect holiday home.

“Beautiful and resembles the listing perfectly.”

Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Having stayed at many different lodges on this park, Easedale is now one of my favourites! Comfy beds, large well maintained hot tub, lodge is spacious and roomy. Outdoor areas are large too with big comfortable seating area and privacy screening round the tub. Well appointed with all kitchen utensils and towels, TV in master bedroom and lots of wardrobe space. Very aesthetically pleasing too! Felt right at home! Only minor considerations- As another guest has mentioned, both bathroom doors need looking at. One doesn’t lock well and one needs shaving at the bottom as it gets stuck mid way. Freezer door doesn’t close properly which causes the drawers to either defrost or freeze up altogether. All cooker settings have rubbed off. Had to find instruction manual and guess which was which. No dishwasher instructions. These didn’t take away at all from the lovely stay we had however and will not put us off becoming a returning guest!!! Thank you!

Tina March 2024

“We’ve just had a lovely 3 night stay at the lodge.”

It’s in a lovely setting and was very clean, tidy and spacious. The hot tub was great and was checked by staff each day, and as we were leaving it was emptied and refilled which was good to see. We had a very nice meal at the club house ,( a bit pricey but lovely food.) we would definitely stay at the lodge again. The only thing that was not very good was both the bathroom doors were not a good fit, (the en-suite door wouldn’t open properly and the other bathroom door didn’t shut easily), also the radiator in the en-suite had a slight leak. Non of this was a problem though, we had a great time thanks.

- Tina, March 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We will take a look at the doors and the radiator, appreciate you letting us know. Glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

“To start; 1.”

I was informed by email to contact you with regards the code for the barrier!!! The email contained 3 different phone numbers, one for for the Reception which was an automated service and gave no option to speak to anyone. Another was for the out of hours team, no answer on that number. The third was to Lake District Lodge Holidays, who didn't have a clue what I was talking about. The young lady Jessica, informed me that she would contact the Park and then get back to me, well I am still waiting for that call back, even though I rang LDLH twice!! and promised a call back on both occasions, and speaking to the same person, still no call back! Only to find that when we arrived at the Park, the barriers where up and no code was needed, so what a carry on for no reason. 2. Upon arrival the lodge seemed immaculate, but upon going to use the freezer, we found the freezer to require defrosting, only one drawer out of 3 could be opened, and all three drawers had something in them from previous occupants, including 2 bags of opened ice cubes. 3. There is no information about the lodge held within the lodge, local information or anything else, which would have been useful. 4. There is a Wifi code displayed in the lodge in a picture frame, but once connected there is no Wifi/Broadband what so ever, it does not connect to the internet. Yes the Signal is bad there for mobile, but to to have absolutely no Wifi/broadband when advertised as having it is terrible these days. 5. On Saturday morning the Electricity went off at 9:20am, which meant breakfast couldn't be cooked as we couldn't use the cooker, we couldn't wash or shower as there was no hot water. We couldn't use the hot tub, no TV etc etc.... We had a meal planned for my wife as it was her birthday at Lunchtime, which we couldn't go to as we couldn't get ready to go. The electricity came back on at 2:30pm. The lodge itself is very nice, but could do with the utensils and frying pans renewing. There was a fast era of knives and fork...and only 2 Tea Spoons!! which we found pretty bizarre. This was supposed to be a surprise weekend away for my wife and friends to celebrate her birthday, instead it was a bit of a nightmare. We are not the sort of people to complain but if you don't know how can you provide a service to the standards you are advertising. It states in the terms and conditions that a complaint should be directed to the lodge owner!! Who is the lodge owner? Where are there contact details?

“An absolute pleasure to have stayed in this luxurious lodge.”

So close to everything.

Sharon December 2023

“I’d like to start by saying we’ve had a great time at the site despite the weather, the kids enjoyed the swimming and the hot tub was a great bonus to relax in the evening and the rain didn’t affect the experience.”

There are some defects with the cabin and it wasn’t left as clean as one would have hoped but, nothing too bad. The biggest disappointment was the attitude of some of the staff in the club and the fact that there was a limited amount of stock on both food & beverages and the excuse given was due to closing in a few days which I find unacceptable given we had paid for the full experience? In summary, despite the minor negative points, we would recommend this site and would hope to experience the facilities again in the summer.

- Sharon, December 2023
Helen December 2023

“Great position close to everything, the lodge it's self could do with a deep clean dirty under sofas and shower room had hair in the sink windows on patio doors dirty.”

clean towels and bedding. We had a issue with the oven on xmas day plug starting to get really hot and turning black so had to send xmas meat to be cooked at my son's lodge reported it on boxing day and was fixed the same day .

- Helen, December 2023
Tracey November 2023

“We've just returned from another wonderful weekend stay at this lodge.”

The lodge is incredibly comfortable and well equipped the only thing that lets it down is the very poor wifi, leading to frustrated kids but I would still recommend the lodge to anyone wanting a relaxing holiday in perfect surroundings. Maybe it could be looked into to see if there is any way to improve the wifi but all in all another great stay at Easdale Lodge

- Tracey, November 2023
Susan November 2023

Reema September 2023

“Master bed room's mattress was sooooooooo hard.”

It felt like I was sleeping on the floor they were spider webs everywhere. In one of the room wardrobe door was hanging. In the family bathroom sink plug was broken. I paid over £600 for the 4 nights and I am not happy with state of stuff, specially if I can't use them.

“Property location is perfect right near the water front and the outside are with ...”

Property location is perfect right near the water front and the outside are with the hot tub and seating area is generous in size Apartment is fairly modern and has everything you need, overall it’s clean however for the amount it costs to hire the accommodation I do feel it could do with a deeper clean in between guests staying, for example underneath the sofas weren’t hoovered the oven trays on the bottom shelf need cleaning and the sofas need some stains removing etc, however I would come back but I would of recommended to friends had the apartment had more of a deep clean but overall our stay was comfortable and I would go back

- Natalie, August 2023
Tom August 2023

“Lovely lodge very cosy and comfortable, could have been cleaner, cobwebs, food splattered up the blinds in kitchen, food left in freezer and top draw frozen shut, dirty cutlery and dish in cupboard.”

Would have liked a welcome pack just an added touch to start your holiday. Overall a lovely lodge but would have been perfect if cleanliness was better.

Kerry June 2023

“We had a great stay at this lodge, it has all modern home comforts, tastefully decorated and is spacious inside and out, with a large furnished decking area, where we spent our meal times in the lovely sunshine and in the evenings.”

(We were lucky enough to have warm sunny weather!) It is a 5 minute stroll to the lake shore marina through the site and there is a wooded area for dog walking. The location is between Bowness and Ambleside and we were able to kayak to both as well as across the lake to the West shore. The following comment is a negative for the site (not the lodge itself) but it did impact our stay at times… The reason we didn’t give full marks is due to the construction noise going on directly behind the lodge, which was unexpected and spoilt the beautiful surroundings. It was so peaceful when they weren’t working and so it has not put us off returning as everything else was perfect and hopefully next time we come, that particular plot will have been finished. Oh and of course, the hot tub is a wonderful addition, to relax in after a day of walking or paddling :-)

- Kerry, June 2023
Andrew May 2023

“The location of the lodge was perfect in a private cul-de-sac within the holiday park.”

The sun shone down on the decking throughout the entire day. Close to amenities and Lake side. The maintenance of the lodge was poor, and with more care and attention to detail, or a few tightened screws it could have been much better, and the issues we found wouldn't have been noticed. The back door was off centre and difficult to lock, on arrival one of the bathroom lights was continuously flickering, no wash bowl or plug for the kitchen sink, unclean dishwasher on arrival, cupboard doors not securely fitted, broken kettle. As I stated a tightened screw and a little more attention to detail and the bulk of these issues would not have been evident. The main concern in regards to the maintenance and comfort was the the drainage issue that caused the entire lodge to smell profoundly of drain water/sewage, which you can imagine made our stay uncomfortable and unbearable at points especially on an evening after using the bath and shower. I used the Sykes customer service messaging system to report the issue on 28.05.23, got no reply, messaged again on 30.5.23 receiving a reply on 1.6.23 (6 days into or 7 day holiday). This left me disappointed for the seriousness of the issue I had reported not being made a priority or even acknowledged. To top things off there was a bees/wasps nest directly above the side door and entrance to the lodge. My father in law was stung on his forehead when exiting the building to access his car. This was reported to reception but again nothing was done about it. Another issue that made our time uncomfortable and on edge especially with three young children who wanted to enjoy the outside space. Sadly not the review that I hoped to be posting, but hopefully it can help improve what should be a very popular and pleasant place to stay in the Lake District.

“Perfect holiday home.”

We stayed with 2 teenagers, 1 child, 2 adults and 1 dog and had plenty of room. Lovely, welcoming home with everything you need. Perfectly located to explore with plenty of walks close by. Hot tub was a huge hit after long walks. Definitely would return for another holiday, we didn’t want to leave.

“We really enjoyed staying at this gorgeous Lodge it was well stocked with everything we needed.”

The rooms were lovely and cosy and the hot tub was great! The only 1 negative we had was that the tv channels didn't work and the itv player / bbc player were very temperamental due to the Internet

- Nicole, November 2022

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear you had an issues with the TV channels. Had this been brought to our attention we would have been happy to attend the lodge and address this for you. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

Debbie September 2022

“The lodge is lovely & has everything you need.”

The beds are very comfortable too. Just a few problems though. Internet signal for the TV was really bad, due to the poor park Wi-Fi. The washing machine was full of water and wouldn't drain. The freezer needed defrosting & was dirty. The bath plug wouldn't stay in to hold the water for a bath. The hot tub had loads of dirt at the bottom of it & also the floor around the hot tub was really dirty too. and very Slippy. The parking at the back is awkward due to a huge rock next to the allocated parking for easier access via the ramp. This is more of a fault of the park though. Also, the location of the lodge felt very cramped, like too many lodges had been squeezed into a small space. Wi-Fi on the park is a problem, it is hit & miss if you get a signal. This is something I discovered a lot of guests at this park had no matter where you stayed on the park. Really needs looking into. The restaurant is expensive for what you get. The shop doesn't have that much & was without milk for the last 2 days of our 4-night break. So, you're best going to the local spar for what you need. This is a dog friendly park but there isn't many pet waste bins around the park.

- Debbie, September 2022
Lynn September 2022

“We had a really nice weekend the only criticism we had was the hot tub wasn't very good the jets weren't very powerful so there wasn't many bubbles and the hot tub was the main reason for booking the lodge.”

The lodge itself is very nice and well equipped very near to the reception area and carpark and a short walk to the marina. We got taxi into Bowness on Windermere which reception booked for us but there are also regular buses with the bus stop very nearby

Location was perfect, as for clean it was ok, we had to wipe everything down due to all the figure marks on all kitchen cupboards and tables obviously not cleaned between checkout and checkin

Paula August 2022

“We had a fantastic stay at the lodge.”

It was a perfect setting and the weather was great so we made good use of the hot tub and decking area. We will definitely be back to stay in this lodge we had a fantastic time. The only down fall was the neighbours children were awake at 7am noisily outside playing every morning

Cheryl June 2022

“Lovely property , hot tub is gorgeous and outdoor furniture very comfortable .”

Property itself is homely and comfortable with everything you need for a relaxing break. We loved our short break, and really enjoyed taking a picnic on the electric boats you can hire on the lake. We only had a couple of minor issues, I had to clean under the bunk bed ( there were tissues and dirty socks left behind by previous visitors) my niece insisted we remove these) and there was no gas in the bbq, but perhaps this is not something that is included in the rental ? All in all a lovely stay and we would definitely recommend it .

Jonathan March 2022

“Lovely lodge!”

we had a great stay at white cross bay celebrating my wife's birthday. All the staff at the park were brilliant, we took a boat with us which we paid to keep on the Marina for the weekend, had a battery issue and Ian the Marina warden was brilliant at getting us going again. The only thing I would say is the travel cot provided was a little too big to fit in any of the bedrooms, a slightly smaller one would have been ideal although not an issue for most and it's just something to be aware of but Overall we had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend ☺️

“Beautiful lodge.”

A real home from home. The reason I scored facilities low is because on Wednesday night the app to order food and drinks went down in the restaurant and we were very poorly treated for around 3 hours.

Katie July 2021

“Due to the pandemic we expected a high level of cleanliness and unfortunately this was not met.”

We found that there was multiple areas in the property that were failed to be cleaned before arrival. During the course of the stay we had issues with the drains- the smell coming both the kitchen drains and the master bedroom drains was very upsetting as this was difficult to have a pleasurable stay due to the smell that was emitting from the drains. The stay was all in all a decent stay however due to previous stays on white cross bay this property did not live up the previous stays due to the errors found.

- Katie, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear you had some cleanliness issues. Had you made us aware of this on your arrival, we would have asked the cleaner to return to put this right for you. It is a shame you did not let us know and for that we can only apologise and please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. We are sorry to hear of the issue with the drains, unfortunately, this is something outside of our control as it is the drains on the park, we are sorry it impacted your stay. Having said that, we do hope you will return and maybe visit some of our other lodges on the other parks. Property Owner

Miss Lindsay Carter Nov 2020

“We've stayed in a few lodges now with LDLH and having recently been renovated, the standard of Easedale lodge was amazing in comparison.”

3 good sized comfortable rooms, modern clean bathrooms and kitchen and tastefully decorated throughout. Amazing built in blue tooth speakers in the ceiling which was a great touch. Really good sized hot tub which was perfect for us after miles of walking in the rain everyday. My only constructive criticism(s) would be; the kitchen is really well equipped, but so well equipped that when we arrived there was no empty cupboard for our shopping so we had to do a bit of shifting around before we could unpack. Also whilst there are signs warning that the decking is slippery when wet I do think that it would benefit from some sort of slip mat outside of summer as we all fell on it at some point, myself quite badly to the point 3 weeks on im pretty sure I've cracked a rib :-( no biggie as I'm mid 30s but could have been nasty for an older person. Overall fantastic stay over a stormy half term week and would definitely return to this lodge, the park itself have adapted the restaurant really well to fit in with current restrictions, limited tables and all food and drink ordered on an app and once you have the app you can order food to collect too! They even still managed to have entertainment on which was brill. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Beautiful lodge and the park is perfectly situated to explore the lake district What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Muncaster castle, bit of a trek but what a stunning place.

- Miss Lindsay Carter, Nov 2020

Thank you for reviewing your stay at Easedale Lodge, Lindsay and we are delighted you had a great time. With that in mind and to improve on your lodge experience we shall certainly pass on your feedback to the Owners and we are sure they will do all they can to address any niggles. Thank you for letting us know of your lodge experience and for the great comments. Easedale is a superb place to stay, despite the weather! and it pleasing to hear you thought so too.

“Excellent Location.”

Lodge was nice and comfortable. Investment on new fixtures and fittings was evident and it was modern and a really nice space. I would recommend staying here. Issue with cleanliness is some (not all areas) which was a bit disappointing given the focus on Covid and measures that had been put in place to ensure our safety as advertised by the company. I raised this with Lodge Holidays, more as an information exercise so they could ensure it doesn What did you enjoy most about your stay?

- Mr Jamie Fox, Aug 2020

Thank you for you review Jamie and we apologise you needed to report a couple of minor cleanliness issues on arrival. It is most unusual to get such comments. The cleaning is undertaken by an independent cleaner and the owner was also present on this occasion. We looked into your concerns and did advise that both cleaner and owner were happy with how the lodge was presented. Unfortunately we didn't get anything to substantiate your concerns so weren't able to resolve things to your satisfaction.

“This is a beautiful lodge in a lovely position!”

Providing everything you need to enjoy a staycation in the beautiful Lake District. There are a couple of reasons I haven't given it excellent ratings. We weren't allowed to use the Bbq! But that was left in a very dirty condition with a greasy frying pan and tools in it! We weren't informed of this! The mattress in the 2nd bedroom was too soft. But overall very good! What did you enjoy most about your stay? It was comfortable.The Hot tub was lovely. Especially after a very wet couple of days! What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? We have holidayed in the Lakes for many years but never been to Rydal Caves. Highly recommend! many years but never been to Rydal Caves!

- Mrs Linda Thomson, Aug 2020

Thank you for the review, Linda and to let us know you enjoyed your stay. With that said noting a couple of things were not quite right, we are sorry; The BBQ is for lodge owners use only although we have advised that it is removed to avoid confusion. Guests that would like a BBQ are reminded? in the pre stay email - to bring a disposable to use on the slab provided. Noting one of the beds was too soft for your liking, we do find that comfort is a personal preference although we shall certainly monitor feedback over the coming weeks and advise the lodge owners accordingly. On a more positive note, we are pleased to hear that overall your stay was very good. Easedale is a newly refurbished three bedroom lodge with hot tub, and offers excellent accommodation for families or couples looking for a relaxing break in the Lakes. We do hope to welcome you again soon. Property Owner

We couldn't fault the accommodation at all, it was absolutely amazing. So clean and tidy, everything you could possibly want was included. The rooms we're all good sizes, the decor was very modern and fresh, the hot tub was lovely, the furniture on the decking was incredible, so sturdy and lots of seats, there was a huge gas BBQ too, and a washer/dryer etc. There was lots to do, we had a fabulous holiday and will definitely be returning, this lodge was perfect for us :) Thanks for a lovely stay.

“Excellent for someone with a disability although not huge amounts of room if you needed to remain in a wheelchair.”

There is a wonderful carpet but again the hinders wheelchair use in the lodge as I would have been concerned about ruining the carpet with a dirty chair - and it was wet during our stay! Very well equipped with the general stuff. A modestly priced lodge which was perfectly acceptable. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“We have stayed in this lodge previously and had a great experience so we were happy to rebook.”

The shower in the bathroom seems to work better now, not an extreme jump from very hot to very cold quickly, which is good. The beds are comfy and the hot tub is excellent. The location of the lodge in the park is ideal, very central. My only gripe would be there has been additional outdoor couch seating added since last year on the decking at the front and the table which we sat at every day has been shoved round the side of the decking near the main door, which doesn What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“The lodge itself was in a perfect location and sitting on the decking was excellent when the sun came out.”

The bathroom was perfect for my needs. We loved the lodge itself and technically it is fully accessible it's just unfortunate that the owners have put a very thick carpet throughout the lodge!! Apart from in kitchen and bathroom areas. I went from being independent to totally dependent on my partner for everything as I couldn't push myself as the carpet was too thick!! Why would anyone install a thick carpet in a wheelchair accessible lodge is beyond me. If it was the carpet as you go in the front door of the lodge that would have been manageable but you would think flooring would have been more practical as I can't take my wheels off if they get dirty the way people can take their shoes off!! So the day we got caught in the rain I was worried about going into the lodge Incase I got the carpet dirty. I do have a picture but there isn't anywhere that I can upload it on this form. If the carpet issue was addressed then we would love to return as the lodge itself is brilliant!!! We would probably book lodge most years if i could push myself about the way that I can at home.

“On arrival at the park found the staff at reception to be very helpful, when we finally was aloud in enter the lodge at 15:00 was very impressed of what i booked.”

......... But the more I was looking round the more issues we found, we couldn't believe that the dyson hoover was left full to the rim.... that my seam petty but it rings alarm bells to me as that such an basic thing to do..... the bath room is in need of modernising or some work doing, as when you finally get the bath run what take 20 mins as water from boiler would run cold with hot tap fully open so you have to nearly close the hot tap to slow the water to gain hot water... when the bath is nearly half full there is a big gap around the bath and even more when you in the bath..... so on that note we started to use the en suite shower room........ this room has a very strong smell of drains and not very pleasant when your only sleeping next to the door...... As an British Approvals for Fire Equipment inspector (BAFE ) I found that the Powder Extinguisher (stored pressure) hasn't changed....... the Extinguising went out of test in 2013 and was new in 2003.......... so this means this would make any insurance to be void on the lodge, but the main point is putting peoples life at risk if this unit was needed to be used, and this is the same for the fire blanket. So to some it all up this lodge isn't valve for money.................... What did you enjoy most about your stay? We loved our days out around the lake What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? we loved the town in Bowness

It was spacious and had a very homely feel. The weather was kind while we were there and I loved being able to eat all our meals out on the decking. It was very peaceful at nights and I slept well. The hot tub was a very welcome addition and was kept very clean and checked daily.

The lodge itself is fine, it is very well equipped for those who may have a disability, but not sot well equipped if you are able bodied. I have used Lake view lodges on several occasions to book lodges and they are great, the site White Cross Bay is a Park Dean Resort, but its not your standard holiday park.

It was extremely well appointed and very comfortable. All our needs were catered for and it provided an excellent base to enjoy the lake district. After our stay we decided that hiring a lodge was infinitely preferable to a hotel room, which we had done in the past, so we will definitely return to White Cross Bay. The hot tub was a particularly nice addition to the lodge's amenities and added to the enjoyment of our stay. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“Stayed in the lodge Monday - Friday.”

Lodge was lovely, location was nice; but not one person appeared during our stay to check chemical and water levels in the hot tub. I've stayed at many lodges before, and each one had someone who came round, daily, to check the hot tub. By day two our hot tub had lost water (due to four of us being in it) and, by the end of the week, the hot tub was very frothy and smelled a bit like algae. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“On returning to a site and lodge we have previously stayed in ,in this beautiful part of the lake district we were disappointed that after a long drive on a hot day , due to a miscommunication our property had not received its pre arrival clean, however this was soon remedied by the efficient staff on reception and the cleaning staff they contacted.”

being seasoned travellers to this area we did not let this detract from our stay and quickly put it behind us ,and carried on as usual enjoying a lovely stay in our favourite part of the country, and this wont put us off returning to the same site and lodge in future as it appeared to be a genuine oversight which was speedily dealt with.

“We were impressed with how accessible the lodge was for a wheelchair user - we knew the hot tub wasn't accessible but that wasn't a problem as my husband wouldn't have used it anyway.”

The lodge was lovely and modern with everything you needed & helpful touches such as a radar key. The information folder was very useful recommending places to eat, shop etc. The park is beautiful & well maintained. The staff on reception & in the restaurant were all very friendly & helpful. We didn't want to leave & hopefully will visit again one day. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Just how relaxing it was.

“The lodge was great.”

Had full wheelchair access to all areas apart from hot tub, but I was able to use it. Access to bathroom was good as was a wet room. Lodge was clean and tidy with nice towels and bed linen. Only disappointment was that the owner's have de-comissioned the fireplace, as this would have been nice to have used. Parking at front although did discover space at back next to ramp to lodge.

The food in the complex was disgusting and I could not eat my frozen to microwave lasagne. We took it back to our Lodge as we had the dog with us but it was like a piece of plastic thrown in a plastic box (actually looked like a blob of sick it was so bad). The Lodge was very clean and well equipped and we loved the relaxing hot tub. An enjoyable stay after a busy year, recharged batteries ready for next year.

Thank you for your review, Mike and great to hear you all had an enjoyable stay at Easedale Lodge. A pre-Christmas break is a lovely way to unwind before the big day, and delighted you were here for the weekend of the Windermere Christmas markets. The lodge is very popular with families or couples and it has all the comforts of home plus a private hot tub - very relaxing! Thank you for recommending this lodge to others. We would be delighted to have you stay again in the near future. Property Owner
Mr Pete Rowley Sep 2016

“Easedale Lodge is a comfortable well equipped holiday venue.”

It was immaculate on arrival and everything we might have needed was there. It is spacious, more than enough room for our party of three and one our party was in a wheelchair. The park throughout is very quiet and considering the size and the amount of people that were there we didn't hear any unwanted noise. On a downside, and this quite minor, at the bottom of the ramp to the front door there is some gravel which made it a little awkward for our wheelchair guest to negotiate and in the main bedroom we couldn't get the wheelchair round the end of the bed to get to the wardrobe. Apart from that, fabulous. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location and the comfort. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? If you haven't been to the Lakes before, don't spend all your time around Windermere, there are stunning places to visit just a little further north.

“We arrived at the cabin, it was very clean and spacious, great location to explore the lake district.”

The only fault we had was the drainage system we cut our holiday short due to the awful smell that engulfed the cabin on the Saturday night, we found it to be coming from the wet room.we had to move both our sons mattress and our mattress into the living room to sleep. The smell was that of sewage both myself and my husband vomited due to the smell.I did e mail the site to say we had a problem with the drains, they sent someone out the next morning, he said it was due to the cabin being in a low position in park and that it sometimes happens. The man poured half a bottle of flash down the drain. We decided we could not sleep in there for another night incase the smell came back. So we left a day early. For the amount of money we paid we were a little disheartened that the holiday had to be cut short. The lodge was beautiful but due to the incident we would not book this particular lodge again, but would return to white cross bay as we have holidayed there for many years now in different lodges.

The lodge was lovely but the new breakfast bar made it a little tight for my wheelchair. Everything else spacious and clean. Lovely location handy to everything in the Lake District. Hot tub not suitable for wheelchair users as down some steps. I usually get to and from my car myself but the surface of loose stones round base of ramp and car-parking area made it impossible without someone to help me. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“This lodge is beautiful, modern with NEXT accessories but very cosy.”

It has new carpets and a lovely new kitchen containing everything you need. There is a tv with some free view channels plus two sky sports channels. It has a very large deck to sunbathe or sit with an 8 seater table with separate bbq area. It is situated in a little cul de sac to make it a bit more private and is a 2 min walk to the lake. You can take an open top bus to visit bowness but it's probably cheaper to drive and pay and display. Great location to explore the lakes. I would like to go back weather permitting. If you are taking children take bikes or other outside toys there is a picnics area next to the lake where they can play or there is room to play near the lodge. There is a children's play area which is small but ok. There is a pub onsite where meals can be purchased with a shop that sells very basic items. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

Very good value for the money way paid. We had the sunshine from the morning until it went down in the evening which was lovely when sat on the decking area having a bbq. Only five lodges in the little cul-de-sac. So very quiet on a night. Club house serves lovely reasonably priced food and big enough not to feel crowded. Shop is basic but good choice of things to buy. Very good position to visit windermere town centre and other attractions aren't that far to travel so overall great location. Try this lodge you won't be disappointed. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The whole experience in the lake district.

The facilities for the wheelchair user were perfect, wheel-in shower, space to get to bed, ramp to front door. and a lovely rise and recline chair.

All hot tubs are maintained to strict industry standards and HSE guidelines by separate qualified independent contractors on behalf of the property owners. This includes changing the water between guest stays and checking the water condition on a regular basis.

Whilst every effort is made to have a hot tub ready for immediate use by the arrival time stated, this may not always be possible. In such cases the hot tub will usually be ready to use later that day unless otherwise advised. In such cases no compensation or refund is payable unless the hot tub is faulty.

Information about using a hot tub safely is provided at all lodges with a hot tub and on a prominent notice near the tub. All hot tub users should wear an appropriate bathing suit.
