    “The lodge was perfectly located and well equipped.”

    Hot tub was clean and ready for use and size of lodge was perfect for our stay. Club house and facilities were small but perfect for what was needed and staff were super helpful. WiFi is terrible but that didn’t bother us too much. The one major thing that let it down was the cleanliness, there was a damp, dirty towel in the wardrobe, the towels that were provided smelt of damp, cobwebs in all corners of the rooms with spiders in them.

    Hot tub was clean and ready for use and size of lodge was perfect for our stay. Club house and facilities were small but perfect for what was needed and staff were super helpful. WiFi is terrible but that didn’t bother us too much. The one major thing that let it down was the cleanliness, there was a damp, dirty towel in the wardrobe, the towels that were provided smelt of damp, cobwebs in all corners of the rooms with spiders in them. Pots, pans and crockery were dirty and the frying pans were literally full of grease and in the cupboard. We washed every single item before using. The floor was sticky, hoover hadn’t been emptied and inside the blinds was so filthy you could scrape the muck out. The place was cleaner when we left than it was when we got there. It’s really a shame that such a lovely lodge is not being cared for and maintained properly. Overall we rated it a 4 star because of the size of the lodge and the location, the park Dean resort is small but perfect and the kids absolutely loved it. However we should not have had to clean the whole place and all the pots and pans to feel safe for use with small children and a baby.

Park Rules and Operations – White Cross Bay

All holiday parks are owned and managed by a separate company to ourselves. Lake District Lodge Holidays has no association with the owners of these parks or responsibility for the provision of services they offer. At certain times of year, there maybe a reduction in those services, which is outside of our control.

Commercial vehicles, caravans, camper vans, Hen or Stag parties are not permitted onsite.

You will be staying on an operational holiday park, which means work may be undertaken from time to time by the park owners during your stay. Although Lake District Lodge Holidays will always try to inform guests in advance if something may impact on a stay and if we have prior knowledge. We cannot be held responsible or accept any liability for park operations of which are outside of our control and which we have no knowledge of.

Any issues relating to a stay at a privately owned lodge should be reported back through Lake District Lodge Holidays as the park are not responsible for managing the lodge or booking for private sublet guests during their stay.


Hot Tubs

For the comfort of other holidays guests we request that noise is kept to a minimum. Usage of the hot tub is between 10am and 10pm only. If you are found to breach these timings then you may be asked to vacate the park with no call for a refund.

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. Usage of a hot tub is at a guests own risk and Lake District Lodge Holidays accepts no liability for anything which may happen to a guest as a direct result of using a hot tub.
