Description

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.

The lodge itself was fine.

Comfy and clean. The location is fantastic. However, the wifi doesn't work and although the tv is smart you can't use the smart functions without Internet. If we knew this in advance we would have been more prepared with entertainment for the kids.

We have been coming here twice a year some times three in a year since 2022 and we work very hard even on our days of we are busy looking after our family members so when we found this lodge with the views it was are dream getterway we don't drive but that doesn't matter becouse we just want to either stay in to watch the TV or go down to the lake.

We hadn't had normal TV or Wi-Fi for seven days and its not exceptable especially the prices you are both charging its evident throughout the guest book and reviews that the owner and skykes cottages just want the money becouse nothing is being done about it We have booked again because my husband is 60 if it hasn't changed by then am not coming back this had been copied and pasted an going on to trust pilot

The property was spotless on arrival and we loved the location of the property.

There is bus stop outside the park, so you can get to Ambleside, Windermere, or further afield very easily. Great access to the lake, and the views were lovely from the picnic benches near the marina. We will certainly come back. The only thing to mention is the sofa in the lounge is uncomfortable. If the seats were repadded, this may resolve the problem. However, this did not spoil our holiday in any way. 5 out of 5 stars
