"We had looked at a couple of properties on this site and opted for 43 Pony Meadow and so glad that we did."
It's quite a spacious place and it is in a lovely position. Quite close to the Marina.
The sight itself was also lovely too and in very close proximity to where the Great North Swim was being held in which I was taking part on Friday 7th June (My Birthday)
The only real downside was that there was no food availability on site after 9pm, (which isn't the fault of Sykes cottages) as after Swimming 2 miles in the Great North Swim in Windermere, neither myself nor any of my supporters were up to cooking that evening.
I would consider 43 Pony Meadow again if I'm ever in the area with family/friends in the future.
Thank You
Thanks for the lovely comments

"Enjoyed our stay at 43 pony meadow ,the only issues were the fact that the was no wi fi, I did ask at the site reception but was told because the accommodation wasn’t booked through park dean."
I would have to contact Sykes, which I did, they contacted the owner who informed them to inform me to try resetting the router of which I did, but it made no difference there was still no wi fi signal. I have photos taken of the no connection of wi fi taken over several days.The others issue was the vacuum cleaner,I like to look after other people’s property and it was impossible with the vacuum in the property.
Happy you enjoyed your stay, Wi-Fi has been a problem and parkdean are fitting an external aerial this week, I apologise profusely about the vacuum cleaner not now in good working order we will address this immediately, could you explain to Sykes your low comfort score please.

"Enjoyed a lovely week at 43 Pony Meadow."
Lovely modern lodge, great location, well equiped, beds comfortable. However, on arrival, there wasn't any bedding on the super king bed, just the quilt and a blanket in a heap in the middle of the bed. Telephoned the the owner twice, who advised she would get it sorted. 45 minutes later a young man appeared with some bedding and handed it to me (no offer to actually make the bed though. Good job I had my daughter and son in law with me to do it, as I'm disabled and wouldn't have been able to manage).
We are regular visitors to the Lakes. However, as not all people know their way around, a welcome book would be a nice addition to the accommodation, with some local information/places of interest/location of nearest supermarkets etc. We have always had one at the many previous Sykes properties we have stayed at, and find them an invaluable tool.
WiFi non-existent. The lodge was super clean, however, a bit of attention from the cleaners is required under the couch on a regular basis. Our dogs ball rolled under there, and when retrieving it, my son in law found large clumps of dust, a crushed alcohol can, and chips.
Glad you enjoyed your stay,will look into a guide, I will take your points up with the cleaning company, mortified about the bed and I’m extremely sorry,again I will bring this to the attention of the cleaning company and the cleaning under the sofa. Wi-Fi unfortunately is Parkdean and we have raised this before.

"43 Pony Meadow is a beautiful lodge."
Good location on white cross bay, near to the lake.
Decor is beautiful and lodge amenities are good.
The WiFi for the lodge is the Park Dean site wifi which is terrible/non-existant so if you have teens who live for connection then I’d have to say ensure you book a lodge here that provides its own wifi and not the one provided by Park Dean.
The water pressure was also a little low at times, again a site issue I think.
The lodge itself is really beautiful. Beds are extremely comfortable. Sofa very comfortable and cosy with the fire burner. We enjoyed our stay.
Thank you for your great feedback,we will look into our own Wi-Fi but what we pay parkdean on site fees Wi-Fi should be first class.Hope you’ll come back soon

"The lodge was stunning decorated to a very high standard we loved everything about it !"
! It had all the facilities and more we really enjoyed staying here and will be back soon
My only issue was the wifi the park dean wifi wasn’t strong enough so would suggest maybe a router of some sort privately thanks
Thank you very much for you kind words and 5 star review,we hope to see you back soon thanks again.The Wi-Fi is poor and we are looking into the problem,but getting a phone signal is also difficult I think it’s because of where it’s situated.

"Absolutely lovely lodge with lovely furnishings."
Very comfortable to stay in. Beds are comfortable the only downside was beds were not made up on arrival and the duvets were not folded neatly on the bed just thrown on the bed in a heap which I would at least expect. We did not have enough bedding when we arrived trying to get hold of someone was not easy. My signal was awful in the area and did notice when I got home I did have a voicemail from them but was too late as I had to go out and buy some bedding for my daughter to use.
I am so sorry to hear of the problems you had and will address this with the management team,I am willing to refund you for the bedding,I am also willing to offer you a free weekend,thanks for your other lovely comments please accept our sincere apologies

"Absolutely beautiful, we loved our stay at 43 Pony Meadow."
It’s in a great spot and we really liked White Cross Bay Holiday Park. The lodge was well equipped but there was no hairdryer, this meant I had to sit in front of the fire to dry my hair! Please could you consider adding a hairdryer? There was also no accommodation guide so we had to work out everything for ourselves, which was relatively easy, but it would have been nice to have it all there to read.
Some feedback for Whitecross Bay, it would be great to install some sensor lights along the paths for night time, it was difficult walking back in the dark with my elderly disabled Mum.
Thanks for your feedback we will have an hairdryer put in the caravan,all the operations books are in the bottom kitchen drawer,I hope you will come back.I will mention to the park about the lighting. Thanks

"It needs more lighting around the campsite and just in general on the front of the lodge of 43 Pony Meadow as at night, it was pitch black."
Unfortunately we are not in control of park lighting but will mention to the park management about it, there are lights on the decking and the caravan.

"The caravan was (new) great with many thoughtful features."
Nice touch providing games for kids to play with. Shame there was no view to speak of, was initially, a bit awkward to find.
