“Absolutely beautiful lodge!”

Interior is very modern & styled with great taste. The location is great (right in the middle of Ambleside & Windermere) which was ideal for our walking holiday as we spent a day in each. The lodge owners checked in with us a few days before our arrival with a reminder of the barrier code & key collection. They also kindly text us on the day of arrival to check we arrived safely & managed to get in ok, & again on departure, which was a lovely touch. The lodge felt extremely homely & my family ...

They also kindly text us on the day of arrival to check we arrived safely & managed to get in ok, & again on departure, which was a lovely touch. The lodge felt extremely homely & my family was really impressed. We took two toddler age puppies with us for their first UK holiday and they also settled well & really benefitted from the enclosed balcony surrounding the lodge as this meant we could let them out without having to leash them all the time (there is a grass patch opposite the lodge which came in handy for our pups who will only go toilet on grass!). Overall an amazing holiday - so much so we are looking to book again for next year as no other lodges we’ve looked at come anywhere close!

“The owner was always quick to respond to any question and extremely helpful.”

The property was incredible, the best of the best in every room. The main bedroom had an ensuite with a shower to die for. The entire property was high end and highly desirable. Nothing was left out in the amenities even down to the cooking utensils and equipment. The property was huge and well cared for and a stream ran just at the front with a field opposite that we saw deer there every day. The Lake was just a short walk away and there was ample areas to walk the dog or just go for a stroll in the wooded area surrounding the park. I can highly recommend Waterside Wood and look forward to a return holiday there to unwind and relax in high end comfort.

“Can’t wait to come back here next year.”

We had a fabulous time, this is a true home from home. It had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean and so warm and cosy. Owner was very helpful and made sure we arrived ok. We have stayed all over the U.K. and this is one of the best property’s we have stayed at, perfect for the dogs.

“When entering the lodge I was initially very impressed with the appearance and facilities available.”

After a few hours I could smell very strong urine in the living area and investigated to find urine soaked kitchen roll beneath the rug in the living area. I decided to lift the rug to clean the area and it was very clear that the area had not been cleaned before our stay. Similarly in the master bedroom there was a used tissue under one of the bedside cabinets. Showing again that cleaning had not been thorough. Unfortunately this made my stay less enjoyable as I began to worry about what had and had not been cleaned, this is important during any stay but especially during a global pandemic. We had a small spillage on the sofa so I cleaned this leaving a patch on the sofa which again showed how dirty the sofa was. We were unable to use the internet in the lodge throughout our stay also. I believe that for the rate we paid we should not have had to contend with such things.

- Mrs Bradley, August 2020

I am very sorry you found the cleanliness of the lodge lacking. I can assure you I am investigating the incident with my cleaning company. My friends were staying in the lodge prior to your holiday and there were no children or pets in that party. I was in the lodge attending to maintenance on the day you arrived and I didn't detect a smell at all. In my introductory email to guests I do ask that if they have any queries, questions or issues to contact me. Had I been aware there was a problem I would have arranged a re-clean immediately. It's a pity I was not given the opportunity to do this for you to enable you to enjoy the rest of your stay. I also make guests fully aware in my email that internet connection is poor, but we have no control over this. We invested a substantial amount of money to improve coverage to our lodge but unfortunately it is not always successful, particularly when demand is high. Owner relations

“The lodge was absolutely wonderful and in a great position on the site.”

There are fees of open fields opposite where we saw deer whilst having breakfast.The lodge interior is very modern which we loved and spacious bedrooms all very new.For us it was worth every penny spent as it’s very luxurious compared to some other very basic lodges on the site.Five minutes away is the centre of Bowness to the right and five minutes left out of the resort is Ambleside.The wrap around decking proved great for our dog as well .
