Previous visitors' comments about Meadowbank Lodge:
Staverly Village had great facilities, especially the pub, The Eagle and Child.
Great view to the hills and set off the main road. Close to Windermere. Owners were very friendly.
Mrs Wilde, Newcastle upon Tyne, December 2011
The cottage is very cosy with lots of original features and a lovely garden with views. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing holiday. The location is very good for access to all parts of The Lakes, and Staveley has some great places to eat within a five minute walk. The Eagle and Child is excellent for pub food and Starly's at Staveley has wonderful curries on offer. We can't wait to go back.
Mrs Howell, Buxton, September 2011
Cosy cottage to come back to and watch sunsets from the garden. The village had good amenities, friendly people and a great pub for food. Beautiful walks from the cottage and within easy reach to places of interest by car or train.
Mr Staley, Warwick, August 2011
The garden was lovely with a good choice of garden furniture. We were very lucky with the weather and enjoyed eating outside with the beautiful views.
