“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.

“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.

“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

“Very cosy and comfortable cottage with everything we needed.”

Good touring base for southern lakes and great to come back to after a cold wet February walk.

“Few minor issues.”

Shower head exploded first time we turned the shower on . And light fitting in main bedroom looked unsafe being held on by just connecting wires. Slightly disappointing to find just the one toilet roll. But overall a lovely little place great location very cost. Would recommend.

“Excellent location, quiet but within easy reach of everywhere, key collection simple, property exceeded expectations, our dog loved the short stroll down to lake where we had a couple of picnics on the jetty.”

We enjoyed it so much we have already booked again for next year.

“Contacted Sykes Office in Windermere on Sat 17th to tell them about the T.”

V. could only get BBC Channels (i..e BBC 1,2,4 & CBBC) and also a lack of Light Bulb on stairs up to Lounge also about Extraction Fan in Bathroom was not working. Also two holes in Laminate Floor in Kitchen covered by a rug. The write up on line stated that it was Freesat we could not get any at all there was no Freesat Box or Dish outside. My Husband managed to re-set the Channels but still did not get all programmes.

“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 2 miles away and has a host of cafes, 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 9-hole pitch-and-putt course and plenty of parkland to explore.

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