  • "Overall is satisify."

    However, the dishes, oven and cooking utilities were not clean. We need to wash it once before use.

    Thank you for highlighting the problem with the dishes. I can only assume some previous guests did not use the dishwasher (or did not leave the dishes out for cleaner to see) and put the items away after briefly washing them in the sink. We don’t have many notices for guests as we think a lot of things are common sense such as avoiding putting unclean dishes in a cupboard. Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience. Best regards Ian Property Owner

  • "Beautiful lodge, well set out, enjoyed our stay."

    A note for the site, there should be more lighting, because you cannot access the property till 5pm, it is dark at this time of the year, difficult to find your way around.

  • "The lodge was beautifully decorated and in very close proximity to Windermere."

    We didn't have a chance to use the site facilities as we only stayed for 3 nights but 9 Coniston was very spacious, clean and the beds were all really comfortable. There is absolutely nothing to improve on, but perhaps a darker carpet or a carpet clean every so often. I will not hesitate to come back in the future, and get the impression we were lucky to find a free weekend on 29th July with 5 days notice. Thank you.

  • "An excellent lodge & centrally positioned base for touring the Lake District."

    The site is well maintained & gives a lovely feeling of being amongst the trees. Lodges are well spaced out. This lodge had everything we needed and was well equipped. The welcome pack and tea/coffee were much appreciated. Just to note 2 minor things to be mindful of: if you like a large bath towel, bring your own; it can get quite loud when the cabaret act is on in the club. Otherwise I would highly recommend this lodge.

  • "It was a lovely place to stay."

    The lodge was very open and the interior was simple and cute. Really enjoyed our stay, the check-in, and check-out process was quick and easy with no hassle. The only downside to the stay was the cleanliness of certain parts of the lodge. On arrival, there was an open half-eaten crisp packet left in the hallway, and the plates and bowls in the cabinets had bits of food stuck to them we went to use them. Other than that, everything else was lovely.

    Coniston No 9 is an exceptionally well equipped Lodge, clean and VERY comfortable.

It was our first Lodge experience which we intend to repeat, hopefully at No9.

  • "The lodge was larger than it looked in images i."

    E. patio doors both out from living area and dining area to decking, Whole lodge was very clean and tidy. Location wise the site was perfectly situated for travelling around the area. Only a ten minute walk up to the visitor centre where we did the high tree top ropes, and you could hire kayaks etc for on the water. Only 15 mins in car to central Windermere and same other direction for Ambleside. We ended up just using the bus to get around as parking was very busy at all the car parks. With bus stops just outside the holiday park this was ideal, however the cost of the buses was expensive. Only discovered on last day that you could buy a weekly ticket that would have saved us money. We couldn't fault the lodge or site. Was not too busy and even strolling up to the club on site was nice. Or in the evening walking down to the water front of the park to sit was very relaxing. Would definitely book again and recommend.

  • "Arrived to find a beautifully equipped lodged that was immaculately cleaned and well positioned within the site."

    The staff were extremely polite and helpful. The facilities were good, however, some were unavailable, like the small gym for example, due to Coronavirus restrictions, but this was not totally unexpected. The location of the park was perfect for visiting all the best places in the Lake District and we were incredibly lucky with the weather during the period of our holiday. Only gripe was the poor WiFi and weak mobile signal, which made it difficult to plan things, or make bookings during our stay. Would definitely recommend the site and would use White Cross Bay again for any future stay in the area.

    The lodge was well equipped and comfortable. Where it is situated on the site is quiet and peaceful but close to reception where there is a pub, convenience store, swimming pool and small gym. We had three sunny days when we opened the doors onto the terrace and enjoyed the sunshine. On the less sunny days (!) it was still nice to sit inside the living area as it is very light and bright. The site is a short drive from Bowness where there are shops, ferries and the Beatrix potter attraction. It is also close to Windermere and you can walk to Brockhole. A great place for family holidays.

The property

This delightful detached ground floor lodge is situated on White Cross Bay holiday park, which is set on the shores of Lake Windermere, close to the small village of Troutbeck Bridge within the stunning Lake District National Park.

This lovely lodge is a great base for families with a number of facilities on-site, such as a swimming pool and gym, along with plenty of places to visit within reach.

Upon arrival at your log cabin at White Cross Bay you will see a large, raised decked area with furniture and gas barbecue and then it's into the light and airy open plan living area.

The living area is modern in style with a well-equipped kitchen, comfy sofas and a dining area, along with a TV and the property has WiFi.

There are three bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes and chest of drawers, with the master king-size double boasting an en-suite shower room, with the other two bedrooms being a twin and a bunk room.

Completing the accommodation is a family bathroom.

Via two sets of patio doors you will be able to reach the decked area, so why not open the doors and let the outside in.

The decked area is the perfect place to enjoy a drink in the sunshine, perhaps after a day enjoying the facilities on-site.

If you can tear yourself aware from White Cross Bay, you will be able to take a ride on the lake cruises across Lake Windermere that can take you from Bowness to Ambleside and then onto Lakeside, where you will find the Aquarium of the Lakes.

There are a number of other family attractions in the area, such as the National Trust owned Hill Top, once the home of Beatrix Potter, and of course being in the middle of a National Park walks and cycle routes are in abundance.
