  • "No dvd player as listed, also lists swimming pool but no mention you have to pay for passes and even with passes you can't pre book you just have to stand in line and hope you get it."

    Accommodation was clean altho dinning table chairs need deep clean and no spqre cupboard to store food. We had a wet week so accommodation became very damp and windows leaked. Would of been nice to have email address to contact owner and ask questions before trip. Great location with bus route right outside sight, weather would of made such a difference but you can't help that in the Lakes.

  • "Our stay was perfect."

    We enjoyed it very much. The cottage was very clean and spacious. Everything you need was there. However, the presence of a parasol would be very nice. The bed is on the short side for tall people. But this didn't spoil the fun.

    Thank you for your kind comments. We are pleased that you had an enjoyable stay. We take all comments on board. Thank you The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

  • "I would not recommend this property."

    Very dirty property. Black long hair on floors, in bedding and in shower. Arrived to boiler not working and no heating. When reporting this, this was not rectified. Single beds were wobbly, wifi,kept going off. I feel this property is run down. Its obvious an ongoing problem with boiler after reading guests feedback and seeing marks on carpet off radiators. Sykes cottages have been appalling and very difficult to get in contact with. I have been told no compensation as owner is refusing. Well if you reading this under the Consumer Rights Act requires the property owner or holiday company to provide the accommodation with reasonable care and skill, therefore you should expect the accommodation to be clean and safe. This was not clean or we felt safe due to boiler. Even the fire did not sound good. I was informed maintenance had fixed it... no they did not as not one person rang me or entered cabin. I had to speak to an independent heating engineer since my daughter really needed a shower on the second night after completing the great North Swim. Mind after having to go and buy cleaning products. I don't expect toilet roll half rolls to be at the property either.

    Thank you for leaving your feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues that you experienced with the cleanliness of the lodge. We understand that our Customer Relations Team have been in contact with you regarding your stay. We will pass on your comments to the relevant teams.

    Outside area great for a sunny rest. Great location for driving to walks. The downside is the terrible WiFi. The lodge wouldn't be suitable for anyone needing it.

    We vame early this year and once again had a lovely peacefull time at this lodge very clean and tidy bed linen very clean we noticed that the rabbit statues ear had been broken off on the wooden table on the decking we would have fixed it but we couldn't find it we absolutely love coming to this lodge it's like are second home we're back in May thankyou

  • "The holiday home was brilliant!"

    It was exactly as described. The only downside I could find was the sofa sits in front of the radiator so the living room tends to stay cold while the rooms heat up really quickly. There was a guide folder but it had basic information and no details about how best to work the heating or how to switch on the boiler. It was guess work but we got there eventually and it didn’t effect us at all. I would highly recommend! Everything was clean and comfortable.

  • "Facilities overall are good."

    Fully equipped kitchen. Great! Lodge was clean. Small bedrooms. Bed linin and towels all good. Facilities to clean should you wish. However: NO WIFI! NO WIFI! NO WIFI! I wouldn't have booked had I known. Made my son very unhappy. The listing stated WIFI therefore I feel it was miss-sold. Dreadful! I have visited campsites with wifi. Added to that no streaming service. I will visit this site again due to its great location by the lake but definitely not this lodge.

    Thank you for taking the time to send your feedback after your recent stay at Lancashire Rose. We are sorry to hear of the issue with the wifi at the lodge. We have updated the description to advise guests that the wifi can be intermittent as its uses White Cross Bay Park wifi. We will contact the owner to ensure a better solution moving forward. Thank you once again for bringing this to our attention. We hope to see you again in the near future. Property Owner

    The Wifi was awful, it was just a disaster.

    Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately the park WiFi had been damaged due to Storm Arwen on 26th November which brought down a lot of trees within and around the park. I'm sorry the lack of WiFi made your stay a disaster and hope the beautiful views from the lodge were something of a compromise. Property Owner

    Following this arriving to the cabin, there was no wifi I was advised that there is a hub which needs to be turned on and that I will be contacted with where to find it, all I received was a text message with the name of the wifi and password. I called again to ask where the hub is as nothing was coming up, I was then told there is no hub and I advised that I was just told there is one and that I would be contacted, I was then told I would be contacted again and was then told there is no hub and it's the main wifi that covers the whole park and that it is intermittent but keep trying, there was no wifi for the entire weekend. The towels had stains on them.

  • "The property is nice and sufficient."

    However, we came with the requirement to work and trust that wifi is sufficient as advertised. However when we were there, no wifi was detected at all. We called customer service many times and was promised to be resolved but nobody got back to us. We were told to go the centre but wifi is also very weak and kept cutting out. We could not get the work required done so was in a fair bit of unnecessary stress. We were not impressed by customer services.

The property

With its superb location just one minute from the shores of Lake Windermere, this well-appointed Lakeland lodge is perfect for a family with up to two younger children.

The lodge is well-presented throughout and offers an excellent outdoor sitting area and access to all the benefits of White Cross Bay with its bar, restaurant, shop and leisure club.

From the private parking space, steps lead up to the raised decking and into the lodge itself.

The open plan sitting room is tastefully furnished with welcoming sofas and chairs arranged around the delightful flame effect fire.

A family dining table is a wonderful spot for sharing delicious meals, chatting and perhaps enjoying a board game or two.

Doors open from here onto the decking outside with patio furniture perfectly positioned for soaking up the sun.

The lodge’s kitchen is modern and well-equipped, with a breakfast bar and array of contemporary appliances including a wine fridge, all important dishwasher and washing machine.

The bedrooms are at the rear of the property with one double bedroom with TV and en-suite cloakroom, and a twin room with children’s twin beds.

A large family shower room comes with powerful shower, basin and a second wc.

White Cross Bay is highly regarded with its range of 5 star facilities including a children’s play area, amusement arcade, indoor heated swimming pool, sauna and gym.

It also has a useful shop, although with the villages of Ambleside and Windermere being just down the road, there is plenty of choice when it comes to stocking up on groceries, browsing the shops and enjoying the many cafés, bars and cosy pubs on offer.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
