"We stayed in this property before a few years back."
It needed a refresh and that’s what it has had. New carpets. Kitchen and decking. Very stay.
-
"Lovely property but it needs a bit of tlc."
Bath panel cracked,curtain frill torn,a bit of a touch up on the bathroom decor. The outside decking needs a blow and a good staining as it's very shabby. Also a big branch on the roof. Overall though I will go back this year sometime

"Unfortunately this holiday cottage is getting tired and in need of updating."
Not worth the high price we paid to stay there to be honest. Leaking radiators and showers. Cupboard doors with peeling areas etc. As mentioned in a previous review the en-suite bathroom has a drainage smell. Both bathrooms had mould patches on ceilings. Also main bedroom has an old mattress that sags in the middle. As I said, needs a bit of TLC. Just don’t look too closely at anything. On the positive side it is a good sized lodge and has a clothes washer/dryer and dishwasher. Also there is a heated walk in wardrobe area in the main bedroom which is handy. Way to expensive for the quality.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback following your stay at Forest Pines. We are sorry to learn that your stay did not meet your expectations.

"Lovely position with space for two cars."
We had a couple of issues regarding a rusty microwave/bowl and they were replaced very quickly after a phone call. We had to clean a few cupboards as some crumbs had not been cleaned up from previous guests. The lodge was well equipped and spacious. There was water damage on skirting in lounge but didn’t affect our stay. The main bedroom was spacious but the mattress could do with replacing as it wasn’t very comfortable. I would book again as overall it was a pleasant stay.
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We are sorry to hear of the issues that you found with the cleanliness . We were pleased to be able to resolve the issue with the mircowave. We do find that mattresses are down to personal preference. We hope to welcome you back to the Lakes again.

"This is a nice property in a good location."
Now that the Lodge name plate (Forest Pines) is nowhere to be seen - but finding the Lodge is OK if you follow the directions. The Lodge is showing some signs of age - some significant cosmetic damage (heat / water) in kitchen, double mattress needs replacing (it's just about okay the moment), water leaks around shower over bath etc Most significant issue was the ensuite shower drain smells - it needs a really good clean and disinfect. This all sounds a bit negative - but overall it's a nice Lodge - it just needs some money spending on it! Would we rush back - No. Was it okay for the money - Yes.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your comments. We take all comments on board, and we believe that our Maintenance Team attended also. Thank you The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Team Property Owner

"I luv the location of this lodge, the size, and the secludedness."
You can see some of the lake through the trees. I have stayed here 3 times and booked for next year. I have emailed some things that need looking at. This accommodation is far superior to some that have no character, trees or privacy. I would recommend this property as anything I've mentioned in the past has always been rectified. The decking is safe and well maintained. Walk in wardrobe is great size and you can keep everything tidy in your room.

"Lovely spacious property in a fantastic position on the park."
Lodge was clean upon arrival however on closer inspection the lodge needed some tlc to bring it up to standard. The dining room chair was broken (unable to use). The tap in the kitchen was loose and could be moved in every direction(this was fixed during our stay).The bath had clearly leaked or was still leaking as the flooring was marked , the bath panel was broken in several places. The kitchen cupboards had bits missing off it so was down to the bare wood as well as the skirting board in the lounge.The main bedroom was a good size with a Walk in wardrobe, and ensuite but once again little things need looking at (the electric box held shut with a plaster and in the en suite the spotlight was missing from the overhead unit above the sink leaving a wire hanging down.There is only 1 bedroom that allows a travel cot to fit in which was fine and even with it in the 2 twin beds either side were still accessible however it is positioned directly under a skylight which had no window covering so the child was awake early as the light and sun were shining down on them and woke them up. With a few tweeks and some time spent sorting all the little issues out this lodge would be perfect. We just felt a little under whelmed and disappointed as we had booked 2 lodges along from each other as it was a special occasion and the the other was a much better standard and looked after.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We do take all comments on board, and they have been passed on to the relevant teams. We hope that you will return to the Lakes soon. The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Team Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay and the lodge is beautiful."
Thank you for letting us stay there.

"We had a lovely stay in the lodge."
The park is the perfect location to enjoy Bowness on Windermere with plenty to do. The lodge itself was spacious, well maintained and had everything we could ask for. I couldn't recommend staying at Fallbarrow park enough!
-
"The Lodge was clean and comfortable."
A couple of the kitchen doors need attention and, from a personal point of view, a curtain on the front door to afford more privacy might be worth considering.This did not stop us having a most enjoyable stay in the Lodge.
-
"This is our second stay at this lodge."
I luv the walk-in wardrobe and the size and windows. The balcony is huge and the accommodation is perfect for us. The lodge is in the perfect area for privacy and character rather than just a lodge with no trees etc., and no character. You can also see the a part of the lake through the trees on part of the balcony. I have already booked this lodge again for next year for the third time.

"A very late check in due to the lodge not being ready."
A manager told me that as way of compensation I could eat on them and I would be reimbursed to the value of £50 as long as I showed my receipt. I took my receipt into Sykes office to have it photocopied to be told I had to send it by email, which I did. Sykes then followed up with an email asking for drinks receipt to which I replied, still with the receipt attached, we had take away and supplied our own drinks. Sykes then informed me that as they haven't received my receipt the complaint was now closed, so they didn't honour their offer. As it was less than an hour before we were due to get into the lodge and looking at how much work was still to do before we could get in it was me who contacted Sykes in the first place as I thought my booking had been overlooked. We stay at Fallbarrow Park at least twice a year and is a beautiful place. However, I have always booked through Parkdene and never had any issues. I will stick to Parkdenen in the future and avoid Sykes cottages.

"Shower needed attention drain was corroded, no kitchen scissors !"
Kitchen cupboards need attention, enjoyed our stay despite a few niggles .
Thank you for your feedback, we have asked our maintenance team to access the issues. We are glad that you still enjoyed your stay with us. Property Owner

"On arrival dishwasher was broken, however this was promptly replaced."
Lodge is very comfortable and spacious. The only issue was there was no empty kitchen cupboard to put holidaymakers food in.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your time at Forest Pines. We were glad to be able to resolve the issue with the dishwasher. We hope to welcome you back. Property Owner

"Third time in the lodge, definitely will be back."
Few maintenance issues to sort, some skirting board and kitchen doors need replacing and some areas of decking have rotted and you can put your foot through it.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your 3rd visit to Forest Pines. We will pass on your comments regarding the issues that you mentioned to our Maintenance team to look into. We hope to welcome you back again. Property Owner

"What a clean cottage we had."
Everything was provided by the host. Easy access to the cottage and almost 5 min walk to the lake. Highly recommended.

"The lodge was comfortable."
Good location. There were a few issues that needed some attention. One of the kitchen cupboards was practically falling off when trying to open it. The television was a bit dodgy as well, losing its picture now and again. The blind in the smaller twin bedroom wouldn’t go up. Standard of cleaning wasn’t great, a lot of the surfaces felt sticky, bathrooms were okay and appeared clean.
We are delighted that you found Forest Pines to be comfortable and in a good location. We also appreciate you taking the time to submit your valued feedback. It is unfortunate that you experienced a few issues during your stay, had you reported these at the time we would have attended to these straight away. We will, of course, now deal with the issues raised as necessary. If you should decide to visit the area again in the future, we look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

"As a previous owner of a lodge on Fallbarrow it did everything we asked for."
It is in need of a few attentions such as a blind on the roof window, some of the kitchen drawers were a bit loose. We did have a leak on the en suite radiator but couldn’t get through on any numbers provided to report this so we ended up going to park reception and it was sorted quickly. But we will go again.
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you had a radiator leaking and that you were unable to get through to us. We will pass your comments onto Maintenance so that the leak can be checked and dealt with. We are glad to hear that you would return. Property Owner

"Lodge in great location, comfortable and clean but not spotless."
En-suite sink plug broke and radiator leaked. Water very slow in both bathrooms. Think iPod docking stations bit outdated and would have been better to have Bluetooth. Although we expect outside to be a bit messy from all trees the lodge itself was covered in cobwebs which was a shame as it is nicely cladded.
Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear you had a few issues during your stay. Had these been brought to our attention on arrival, we would have been happy to arrange the return of the cleaner and maintenance team to address these for you. We hope this will not deter you from returning and we look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

"Overall the facilities were fine."
Some of the cupboards in the kitchen needed a tweak (eg the top one near the glasses needed tightening ) but it did not really interfere with our stay
Thank you for your valued feedback We have passed this issue on to our maintenance manager to look into. We do apologise for any inconvenience caused. We do hope that you will return to enjoy another stay in the English Lake District Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay in Forest Pines Lodge."
Lake Windermere is just a short walk away and we enjoyed lovely boat rides there. The park and lodge are up a hill from the lake, so please be aware of this when booking if you have members of your party with limited mobility. The lodge was beautiful and clean, and was kept at a nice comfortable temperature so it was lovely to come back to after a chilly day on the lake. I will definitely be booking Forest Pines Lodge again in the future when I visit the lakes. Thank you for a lovely stay.

"Lovely property and location but both toilets could do with some TLC to improve the presentation."

"The lodge is excellent and the area But there is a few issues regarding maintenance There was a few issues regarding the bath which I reported and was dealt promptly There should be a window blind for the entrance door for privacy Both extractor fans in the bathroom and e suit did not open when switched on."
and there is a crack in the bath panel The kitchen window blind needs repair When paying so much money these problems should be sorted
Thank you for your feedback and the maintenance comments, these have been passed to our team who will look into these.

It is a wonderful property in a lovely area, perfect for a relaxing break away! Property Owner

"Prior to our stay a check on light fittings to be carried out, or spare light bulbs."
Also toilet flush not working correctly on one toilet
Thank you for your feedback and we have passed on your comments to the owner of the lodge for their information. As the owners manage the lodge themselves, we are sure they will take this onboard. We do hope you will return and enjoy another stay with us soon. Property Owner

"Perfect lodge for us and all the facilities at the park were superb."
-
"The Lodge is lovely and comfortable enough."
There was two couples and we had plenty of room. Very clean. Nice quiet area of the park. Close to Lake. Nothing to complain about at all. Wildlife was abundant. Will take a bag of bird seed next time. Everything you need in a kitchen was there kettle toaster etc. The only two small criticisms is not having sufficient storage space for food in kitchen. We had to self cater due to pubs only having outdoor space. We took a lot of dried food biscuits crisps tins and had nowhere to store them. There is s dishwasher which in my personal opinion is a waste of space. And we all felt very uncomfortable in the beds. The mattresses did seem a little old and were spring. We are all used to now sleeping on memory foam. So this could be our issue. In no way did these small things spoil our holiday. We would like to say thank you and we will be back at Forest Pines in the future.

"We have visited this lodge on a few occasions and following our recent visit we are of the opinion that now is the time for the lodge to receive various renovations by the owners, The kitchen and large kitchen electrical appliances need replacing as the wall cabinets are chipped and one folding wall cupboard is falling off and has to be lifted to close."
Both bathrooms look tired and need replacing. Mold on wall of 2nd bedroom requires attention. Although the dining chairs have been replaced since our last visit the dining table is in a poor condition. The appearance of the exterior of the lodge is looking quite tatty in comparison to neighbouring lodges as the wooden decking areas are without wood stain. Forest Pine is a beautiful lodge in a prime position reaching out for some much needed TLC

"Wonderful lodge in a fantastic location."
Really enjoyed our stay (even though it rained most of the week!) the lodge was more than adequate, very clean and in a quiet spot. 3 minute walk into Bowness centre, plenty of good restaurants. The location is perfect for exploring the lakes. The outside area of the lodge is also very nice, we didn What did you enjoy most about your stay?

"Ideal setting so close to the town."
Because of current restrictions we were happy with the 3 bedrooms for our bubble of 2 as we each had our own facilities. Very cosy at night after a day out doing what we could. Very enjoyable stay.

"The lodge was a bit tired but we were spoilt as we had been in one of your prestige ones in the Glade last year."
The bedding was stained but not cleaners fault just how it came from laundry. Bath panel and bottom of shower tray ingrained dirt which I couldn What did you enjoy most about your stay?

"Dampness(foist) on ceiling of small twin bedroom, Kitchen blind does not work properly,En-suite shower was going hot and cold, had to use the shower in the Main bathroom, Main bathroom bath was cracked here and there, the fire in the lounge did not work properly ( No Flame effect), Parts of kitchen units were in need of repair."
Had to replace a lamp in the kitchen hood myself. Wi fi was non existent, TV channels were very limited to access. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Walking into Bowness What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walking in to Bowness
Thank you for your review, James. We are naturally disappointed at what you have to say. We have of course checked the repair issues you raised and we found, we have to say, that the kitchen blind worked for us, the ensuite shower also worked as it should do (it may be your experience was caused by the hot water being used in the kitchen at the same time as the shower was used). We could not find any cracks in the bathroom bath and the flame effect fire, a bulb needed replacing. Thank you for replacing the bulb in the kitchen hood. Unfortunately we have no control whatsoever over the power of the Wifi onsite and the only TV channels are free ones on freeview, which is very limited in the Lake District because the transmission from near Carlisle is then retransmitted from Kendal with reduced power and reduced number of channels. We are quite sure that your experience would be so much better on a second visit and we look forward to seeing you in the near future. Property Owner

"As a young boy we used to come here every year when it was more a traditional caravan park."
This is my first visit in 25 years and it has obviously changed a lot but still had a good chilled out feeling to it and it was as nice as I had remembered it all those years ago. The cabins are very nice and provide quite a homely feel to allow me to spend some time with my family (I only come back tot he UK once every year or two). The area is still beautiful although there is a huge amount of tourism now even after the schools had returned. We never go the chance to eat in the restaurant in the park although the food did look very nice. Will definitely come back again at some point in the near future. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Family time innice peaceful surroundings. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Boat trip to Ambleside.

"We stayed as a party of 5 ladies and found the lodge clean and comfy."
The location is excelllent. We did report a couple of small issues to reception regarding damage to cupboard doors and wash basin.

"This was a lovely lodge."
Very clean which was important to us. Bed was very comfortable and good quality bed linen.we enjoyed our stay very much. Would definitely come again and recommend. The lodge is under trees which is lovely and kept us cool particularly at night as it was very warm. It is quite private. However on arrival the outside of the lodge was a bit disappointing. There was cobwebs all over the lodge and it hadn't been swept what looked like never. I know it's under a lot of trees but it was really bad and a soft brush to brush them away wouldn't take ten mins and would be better for first impressions. The decking needed attention and als needed a good sweep Parking was excellent. Fallbarrow is a beautiful place and we are planing our next holiday there soon. The views are to die for. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Fallbarrow and how close it is to bowness What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Keswick
