“Holiday makers should be aware that the shower is situated over the bath and may be difficult for some .”

For those able to use it , an excellent shower.

“Pine lodge is not a character cottage.”

It’s a little loud inside and the beds are small. It would have been nice to be aware of this in advance.

- Mr Bracey, September 2019
“Lovely location with amazing views from the private jetty.”

Very well equipped cottage that had fascinating decor. Roomy interior that was both comfortable and clean. Reasonably close to Windermere and Ambleside where there are lots of restaurants, pubs, boat trips and sports to enjoy.

- Mr Sales, September 2019
“Lovely cottage great base location and handy for Windermere and eating out.”

Jetty use an added bonus and great to take in Lake Windermere and relax. Would recommend.

- Mrs Atherton, July 2019
“Contrary to other reviews I have read, this is a most clean, comfortable cottage.”

We very much enjoyed our stay here and would book again except that dogs are no longer allowed. We left early in the morning and I forgot to write in the visitors book but we would recommend this cottage.

- Mrs Cooper, April 2019
“The cottage was very dirty - bathroom was disgusting - cottage was very cold and we had to leave a day early.”

- Mrs Llewellyn, January 2019

We are very sorry to read this. Our standards of cleanliness are consistently very high as our reviews show and are stringently checked by our team of cleaners. Had we been made aware of any issues during your stay we would have addressed these immediately. Our guests experience is of the utmost importance to us. Sykes owner relations
“Lovely cottage set in the heart of the Lake District, beautiful location would recommend this cottage.”

- Mrs Winder, December 2018
“Great position felt at home”

- Ms Hooper, November 2018
“Clean, comfortable and spacious.”

A very enjoyable stay. Highly recommended.

- Mr Stoker, October 2018
“The property was as expected and advertised in the brochure, the carpets had been hovered and the bedding was clean but the non carpeted floors had not been hovered or washed.”

They were dirty with crumbs, grit and even hairgrips especially in the kitchen. We only stayed one night for personal reasons not the cleanliness so had no time to put this in the visitors book.

- Ms Hawkes, September 2018
“Pine lodge didn’t come up to our expectations this time,we stayed from 13th to 20th April.”

2018 This place was a bit different from our last stay in 2015 with the good addition of a conservatory. On arrival we found the place a little untidy as upstairs looked like it had not been cleaned or tidied from the last guests and there was bedding still in the washing machine downstairs,there was also water on the kitchen floor which was coming from a leak in the waste pipe under kitchen sink that I repaired myself, On Wednesday the boiler broke down resulting in no hot water or heating so we had to boil water in the kettle to wash dishes etc,we found it difficult to contact the right person to get the heating sorted resulting in a few phone calls to the boiler maintenance and Sykes. Meanwhile the kettle stopped working and that evening we couldn’t shower and resorted to boiling pans to get washed and cleaned up.On Thursday we couldn’t shower so left early to get breakfast in Bowness, while there I received a phone call from Sykes asking if we could go back and wait for the gas man to come which you can imagine I declined. I later got a phone call that afternoon to say boiler was fixed and a new kettle was on its way. The kettle arrived at around 7.30pm so at least we were able to have a cup of tea and a shower on Friday morning before being a little pleased to be going home

“Absolutely perfect and would love to go again if it would still accept pets Regarding the information section of the booking: An actual address would be useful as opposed to a postal address which, from the road, was unrecognisable.”

Also, location of the key safe would have saved a number of calls prior to the trip.

We were stunned with how beautiful this property was ,the kitchen is huge and well equipped,love the lay out of the property with the living room up on a mezzanine floor just above kitchen , unlimited use of the private jetty is great ,15 minute stroll to Bowness an the same to windermere town centre,we definitely would recommend booking this property ,and we definitely would and have booked this cottage again

- Mr Knight, November 2017
“Our 3rd visit to this Lodge which is very well situated for the Southern Lakes.”

The lodge has been vastly improved with the addition of the conservatory, from which you can see Lake Windermere - very bright & airy. The lodge & Conservatory are very well decorated, really comfortable & we would definitely visit again

- Mr Holbrook, October 2017
“Perfection (well it was for me anyway ...)”

Fantastic week in this unbelievably beautiful area of the country and Pine Lodge was just perfect. Just me and my dog (and he had a whale of a time.) Lodge was a delight to stay in, cosy, warm, very homely. Everything there you could need ... just wish I could have spent another week there. BUT ... I will be back. :-) Highly recommended for up to 4 adults, not really suitable for kiddies.

The property

Windermere 0.5 miles.

A superb detached cottage half a mile from the town of Windermere, ideally located just a few minutes' walk from Lake Windermere and with the benefit of a private jetty.

Carefully appointed throughout to provide spacious accommodation, this cottage is ideal for couples or small families who wish to enjoy time in one of the most beautiful parts of England.

The cottage has two bedrooms and a large kitchen/diner, with a first floor galleried sitting room offering a cosy space to relax.

French doors out of the double bedroom lead to a small enclosed patio which is completely secluded and is perfect for enjoying a quiet moment in the sun.

Just a gentle stroll is stunning Lake Windermere, with views across the bay to the Lake District fells.

Guests at the cottage have access to a private jetty to either launch boats and kayaks, fish or simply to enjoy the peaceful romantic setting.

Bustling Bowness-on-Windermere is less than two miles away and has a host of cafés, restaurants, specialist shops and galleries.

The area around the lakeshore is known as The Glebe, and is where the steamer boats collect passengers to carry them up to Ambleside or down to Lakeside.

There is also a nine-hole pitch-and-putt course and plenty of parkland to explore.

A wonderful Windermere cottage, and one to be enjoyed all-year-round.
