  • "We had a wonderful week at Sunny Brow Lodge!"

    All the facilities you could reasonably want, comfortable bedrooms, no issues with hot water always a big thing for me, the hot tub perfect and uninterrupted views over the lake were bliss! Very minor and hopefully constructive criticism issues which shoukd be easily addressed. The black mould in the main bedroom ensuite shower is a little off putting and certainly needs addressing in any end of season maintenance (hopefully before). The key to the main door is sticky and could definitely benefit from some lock lubrication. Could one kitchen drawer or cupboard be left empty for some food? Ended up leaving it on the counter top which wasn't optimal. These are very very minor issues in what was a great week!

    Thanks for valuable feedback -I was hoping the mold issue had been sorted as I have previously instructed maintenance-will look into it -if you ever want to stay again email me on jbowker1@hotmail.co.uk and I will arrange a discount Thanks Jack Property Owner

  • "Our grandchildren just loved the lodge’s hot tub, but disappointingly, the view of the lake was somewhat obscured by the overgrown foliage around it."

    Also, other park visitors could walk by a path and be overlooking those in the lodge’s hot tub, only by about two feet! (See review Sept ‘23) Inside, the lodge is in need of some TLC, especially some kitchen refurbishment. Various examples of black mould in both bathrooms could be easily addressed by everyday cleaning products, and the suedette armchairs in the lounge require cleaning. Storage in the lodge was plentiful, with bedrooms and bedding comfy and attractive. Sadly, we won’t be booking this lodge again.

  • "Poor Cleanliness and faulty Boiler!"

    ! On arrival, the cleanliness of the Lodge was poor. I hoovered prior to moving in!! There was a dirty towel hanging on the back. On the first night, we had problems with hot water and the boiler going off. I reported this at 9.14am on the second day. I was told this was a priority. I rang again at 12.13pm and was told it would be dealt with that day. I have still heard nothing. During the stay, the hot water came back on intermittently and the heating became permanent. We could not switch it off so had to keep the windows open!! I did not report again as I was not prepared to waste another day of our short holiday waiting on for a service engineer. We showered elsewhere!! To add insult to injury, on the last day, we received an email stating that the problem had been resolved because we had not contacted them again!! Extremely poor service.....

  • "Lovely lodge in the most amazing position!"

    ! Bedrooms and storage were so much bigger than other lodges we have stayed in, so that was a treat! Even the small room wasn’t that small! Lovely bedding and beds (which makes a difference!), having plenty of seats in the living room and being dog friendly was a big plus for us! The hot tub was beautiful and hot, and the view was so lovely, we all felt really relaxed. Completely recommend this lodge! I think it has a new boiler too so it was nice and warm as it was quite cold and wet the week we visited - enough hot water for all 6 of us and hot tub occasions! Someone came out whilst we were there to check the hot tub which gives you peace of mind too. I did leave a note to the cleaners before we left to say the hoover wasn’t picking up very well - might need a service or a new one - especially when you welcome dogs, it’s nice for the visitors to keep on top of it.

  • "The lodge was beautiful with an amazing view to look at in the morning."

    Was very clean and lovely decor. Just one real negative that was put on the holiday was, there wasn’t consistent running hot water for 6 of us. We managed two showers then the water went freezing. Had someone to come out twice to look at it and it still did the same thing. Wasn’t ideal when there was 6 of us wanting to shower and clean ourselves after using the hot tub.

    Thank you for providing this feedback. We are sorry for the problems you encountered with the hot water. We can confirm that this has been looked into and a new boiler has been arranged. We are glad that you did enjoy the property and it's location. Lake District Lodge Owner Team Property Owner

    Lodge had everything we needed and beds were comfy. We arrived at 5pm to find nobody on reception and nobody answered the out of hours mobile number so we had real difficulty getting the gate code, luckily we saw somebody walking by who could give us this so do be aware of that if checking in after 5pm.

  • "This Cabin is lovely and the views of the lake are amazing, but no privacy at all as there is a few steps next to the cabin where other people kept using to get to their cabins."

    Sitting in the hot tub and having men walking past just a couple of feet away isn't very nice for young female girls. And both of our cars were badly scratched because of people squeezing passed with paddle boards etc, even though there is a sign saying Private on the Cabin. Maybe replace the Privacy sign at the steps to try stop people getting through or even put a gate up. We stayed here from the 1st Sept for 1 week and the weather was gorgeous, just to hot to sit outside on the decking and enjoy the views because there is no Parasol with this Cabin, and it was just far to hot to sit out in the sun without one, Reception said they don't hire out Parasols and didn't supply there guests with one either, if we had known this we would have taken one ourself. Also a clothes airer would be good too, using the dryer in hot weather just makes the cabin even hotter, which would be brilliant for the cold weather but not when its hot. The decking could do with repainting and a few boards fixing back into place, but nothing major. The hot tub is checked daily and is big enough for 5 Adults but probably better for 4. I tried every single day to speak to someone about a Parasol, using the contact info I was given when I booked, but never got to speak to anyone, I left voice messages and also text messages but no one replied. Apart from the lack of privacy due to some people squeezing passed our cars and staring at us in the hot tub, and the lack of an clothes airer or parasol, this as a really lovely clean Cabin & the beds are also really comfortable. The only reason we won't book this one again is because of the little issues we had, mainly the damage to our cars and the lack or privacy as stated above. The Wi-Fi on the park is terrible so don't expect much from it. It's free for a reason, you never seem to get any signal. The ark itself needs to sort this out though.

    Unfortunately there is a huge bush now grown in front, covering the see through fence and around 2 feet above the fence and the width completely blocking the view. We sent the listed picture and how it looks now, but got a message saying it was out of our control and would be passed to the owner. Such a shame as the lodge is in an amazing spot. Needs a deep clean. Having said that we had an amazing time, out and about visiting all around the area. Trim the bush right back and the views would be amazing!

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your holiday and the beautiful views from your accommodation window. We are also pleased to hear that you were satisfied with the cleanliness of the property, overall. It is most unfortunate that you found items in the wardrobe, this has clearly been an oversight when cleaning was carried out for which we apologise. We would recommend, if you wish to stay in the same accommodation next year that you continue to monitor prices quite regularly. Our prices are calculated in such a way that they can fluctuate and you may see the current prices reduce at certain times which would be an ideal time to book.

  • "We have been to the lakes several times and go every year in fact."

    I would have loved to have rebooked this lodge again and again due to its stunning views and hot tub position and recommend to friends/family/business associates who we know that stay at the lakes like us and are use to staying in nice/expensive accommodation but unfortunately just couldn’t recommend in its current state. It’s such a shame as the position to the lake with those views are truly lovely and it wouldn’t take a lot to restore the lodge to its former beauty. The lodge is ‘fine’ and is just really tired with certain things needing to be replaced to continue its current pricing level and wanting good reviews. I had read reviews about the cleanliness and was worried as this is something that’s a high priority on my list but to be honest I think the cleaners do the best they can in the circumstance, I didn’t feel that it was a cleanliness issue, in fact somethings just now need to be replaced as they have gone too far, such as the oven. The walls, skirting and door frames are marked quite a lot, especially in the master bedroom and so I think this gives the impression of it not being as clean as it could be and so it looks a bit knocked about. It needs repainting/glossing basically. The whole kitchen area needs replacing as the cupboard fronts have blown next to the oven and again it looks just at the end of its life and looking worse for wear. The coffee table needs replacing in the lounge as it has blistered in places and again just gives the impression of no-one really checking on the lodge and replacing things when needed and that such things being broken or not being replaced is okay for the paying guest. The headboard in the master bedroom is all frayed down the one side which gives a terrible impression when you walk into the room. The sofas and chairs in the lounge (and cushions) all need replacing as they don’t look that clean but again I think they are just very well used and over due for replacement now. I have stayed in a few luxury lodges and in my experience because everything is so nice and you are use to having nice things at home, you look after things the way you would at home and keep them to the standard they are at. But even when I got the vacuum out, it didn’t pick anything up and it also needed replacing/fixing and so it felt like I wouldn’t really make a difference and that you are lowering your standards to just keep things at the level they are at in the lodge. I could see that there have been things that have been done more recently and you can tell, the curtains, dinning room chairs and bathrooms all look to have not been long done. The bedding was lovely and clean and the beds very comfortable. Like I say such a shame because a super little business that a moderate investment to update the above and it would be back on track to get its previous comments/reviews. We would go back if it was to be refurbished in the areas I mentioned but not in it current condition unfortunately.

    Thank you for your valued feedback.

    It was let down by the cleanliness. To be paying a premium for a “luxury” lodge we would expect the lodge to be spotless. Especially during times like these with covid still being an issue. A welcome pack would be another little touch which would be expected in luxury accommodation. That said, the lodge was nice and at a stunning location. The hot tub was huge, worked fine and perfectly clean. We would return but not for a premium price.

  • "The lodge was lovely - glad we chose one by the lake - nice and light and great having the hot tub with the view of the lake."

    We had quite a few issues with White Cross Bay park though. Nobody ever picked up the phone or responded to messages at reception and we got stuck unable to leave the park on our second day because we didn't know the code (the barrier was open when we arrived and we followed the instructions to not to go to reception, but then it was up the next day). Lake District Lodge Holidays were helpful and responsive and we got the code from them and by eventually going to reception (face masks not compulsory!). However I couldn't find a phone number for them anywhere and had to wait a while for them to respond to my email. Second issue was cleanliness - some of the plates were totally filthy - lots of food stuck on. Didn't reassure me that they were following whatever covid cleaning protocols are in place. Finally, the internet was terrible. Often we'd get back late afternoon and they'd be no internet until the next morning. Thankfully there was a mobile signal, if not a great one, so we could tether via our phones. Lake District Lodge Holidays said this was a perennial issue at the park and was unlikely to be sorted out until next year, so I don't think we were just unlucky.

    Well done on the new and improved decking and hottub. Was too hot to use the hottub so we took advantage of the Lake (along with half the guests on the park) lol, which was lovely. Never thought i would be swimming in Lake Windermere. Only fault that i need to mention is the fridge. It just doesnt work properly. Took 2 days to freeze the ice cubes and that was on the highest setting also the fridge just wasnt cold enough or big enough for all the food and drinks. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

    Good location - easy to get around to places of interest, we visited Beatrix Potters Hill Top Farm, and Grasmere and Keswick - some of our favourite places. The site was bigger than we thought, and at peak times would probably be quite noisy and busy, this was not a problem for our break, but in future we would probably look for a smaller quieter site. On the whole we had a lovely relaxing family break. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lodge was very spacious and the hot tub was great to relax in.

    We stayed hers mon-fri 4 adults and 2 infants. The lodge is in a fantastic location. And very clean with everything you need. Comfortable beds and very cosy. The only thing i would say qas the hot tub could do with being made more private maybe some bamboo put on the decking to make it more private, as people walk past and can see straight through the fence whilst getting in.

    Miss Leanne RichardsonMay 2018

  • "After staying in Sunny Brow lodge last year with friends, we decided to return again this year."

    The lodge is in a fantastic location, with a great view of the lake. The hot tub/decking area of the lodge is fairly exposed due to it's location right beside the slipway, however it's good for people watching, so I don't feel that this is necessarily a negative!. The decking area to the front of the lodge has been extended with the hot tub nicely located at the edge to maximise the lake views. The lodge itself is nicely appointed, with 3 decent sized rooms, and 2 bathrooms. Beds are comfortable, and plenty of space to hang clothes etc. The main bedroom has a large walk in wardrobe which is ideal for extra storage. The lounge is well designed to enjoy the lake view, and there's plenty of seating for 6 adults which is a bonus. The waste bins are ideally suited just opposite the lodge, along with additional parking spaces, which is very handy. Would not hesitate to book this lodge again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lake View, and overall location of the lodge. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk around Bowness.

    Miss Amanda RowellMay 2018

  • "Really enjoyed our stay."

    Lovely place to stay. And a fantastic view. All the staff were lovely and helpful. A few things could be improved on the cabin itself. All the pots were filthy and had to be washed before we could use them. Couldn't use any pans or trays as they were that old and used everything burnt and stuck to it. A brolly or gazebo over the hot tub would be a really good idea so even though it rains you can still use it. Apart from those little things we had a fantastic time at sunny brow.

    My daughter just loved the hot tub and the lodge was very warm and comfortable. The lodge did seem a bit tired in places, but this certainly did not distract from our holiday by any means.The whole experience of booking through Lake District Lodge holidays was brilliant, if you had any queries or problems the staff dealt with it straight away, and were all very friendly.

  • "The lodge is in a very very good location in the site, right next to the lake and just down the road from the club, enough space to park 4 cars outside the lodge comfortably too."

    The lodge inside is bigger than expected, well presented and laid out and provides everything that you need. The walk in wardrobe in the master bedroom is massive and a great storage space. The views from the hot tub is clearly the best thing about the lodge and you can easily spend all day in there watching the world go by. The only thing that would improve it is a cover or umberella for when it's raining and you still want to be in the hot tub. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

    Upon arrival the cabin looked very clean and smelt fresh. Hot tub was already done for us ready to jump in. Beds were really comfy, had great nights sleep. kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possible need. Only problem was there was nowhere to store any food at all. We only have one complaint and that was the overgrown bush at the front of the cabin which blocks the lovely veiw of the lake when your sat down on the patio. This was the main reason why we booked this cabin because of the view. Hopefully this will be dealt with by the manager before our next visit.

    Miss Marrilyn TaylorJun 2017

  • "An amazing week stay!"

    The view was breath taking waking up and having breakfast with the view of the lake was amazing and after a long day out sitting in the hot tub watching the little boats go past was really relaxing. We was worried for space as we was a family of 5 adults, a kid and our big dog but we had so much room in the lodge. We will be booking again soon with a couple of friends. The lounge had enough sofas for us all to sit down and we found games which my nephew really enjoyed. There was a few things that we didn't like: there was no coat hangers in none of the waredrobes and wasn't enough space to fold away clothes, was looking forward to using the walk in wardrobe but ended up just putting the suitcases in there as couldn't hang anything up. In the master and double room there should of been a TV but the master didn't have one. My husband and I ended up leaving a night early due to our bed being very uncomfortable it would be ok for two nights but no longer, the master and twin room beds felt lovely but this will not stop us from booking again will just take hanger and sleep in the master room next time. What did you enjoy most about your stay? the view from our lodge What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? to visit the surprise view

    Mrs Kerry AdderleyJun 2017

  • "Stayed here the beginning of June 17 with a group of friends."

    The lodge is well laid out with 3 decent sized bedrooms. The master bedroom has a large walk in wardrobe which is very useful for storage, and an en-suite with shower. The Living area has plenty of seating and opens right out to the front decked area. The location of the hot tub is excellent, making full use of the lake view, with good access back into the Lodge. The location is good for people watching! Negative aspects were that some of the fixtures and fittings were a little 'tired' and there did seem to be a lack of storage space in the kitchen cupboards. Overall this is a great lodge, having stayed in a couple of other lodges at White Cross Bay, I would be most likely to consider booking Sunny Brow again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Fantastic views over the Lake, in the hot tub. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Meal in Bowness at 'Bodega' Tapas bar.

    The lodge is spacious and well decorated and has all the facilities you'd need for a pleasant, relaxing and enjoyable stay. A particularly good design feature is the entrance hallway and adjacent storage cupboard. So important when you're coming in on a wet weather day. A hot tub on the decking area is clean and warm, making it ideal in almost any weather. Overall a very nice lodge to stay in with a view to die for! What did you enjoy most about your stay?

  • "We had a most fabulous stay at this lovely lodge on the shores of lake Windermere."

    We were delighted with the standard of the property. Loads of room for 5 adults, very cosy and ideally located. The hot tub was the highlight of our stay and the experience of sitting in the tub overlooking the lake with a glass of champagne was awesome. A couple of issues were that we had spent time in the tub in New Year's Eve and were looking forward to a nice soak after our walk over Loughrigg on New Year's Day and were disappointed to find it cold. There was a notice to say if the water level dropped significantly it may need topping up but it had hardly dropped at all. It still cut out so we weren't able to use it again during our stay as although we filled it up as soon as we realised, it wasn't in time for it to warm up enough to use it again before we left. The other issue was that the kitchen area was not that clean when we arrived- the bin under the sink hadn't been cleaned at all and the fridge and hob were not fully clean. The rest of the property appearded to have been well cleansed, it was just the kitchen. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

    The lodge was lovely and in a fantastic location overlooking lake Windermere. The hot tub was great and we enjoyed chillaxin of an evening with a drink or two. The lodge had everything we needed to enjoy our 4 night break. The only issue we had was when I cut my hand quite badly on a knife & the lodge had no first aid kit. My husband tried the site shop & reception, but neither had any first aid supplies. He had to drive to the local village to buy a medical kit. Apart from that little blip, we had a fantastic time and will definitely return. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The fantastic location.

    Good base for our long weekend. Plenty of room in the lodge and it was comfortable for the six of us. We would have liked more clothes hangers between us all and a sharp knife for preparing food in the utensils. Maybe a hairdryer would be good to save packing and taking your own. There were some dusty and cob webs bits around Windows and corners but generally still ok overall for cleanliness. Eating out was good but need to plan and book ahead at busy times.

    The view is exceptional being close to the edge of Lake Windermere. Children can feed the ducks, geese and swans and with their fishing nets can catch little tidler fish. There are picnic tables where you can watch the activities on the lake and if the weather is inclement there are plenty of other attractions in the lake district. The lodge itself has its own hot tub which was a magnet for our 9 year old grandson and has a supply of dvd's and board games if you don't want to venture out if it's raining. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?

    We wanted a handy base for walking around Windermere and found Sunny Brow to be in a great location. The reviews were favourable, so we booked our stay and so happy that we did. The arrangements could not have been easier, all done by email and all very easy. Questions answered fully and directions very clear. We found the lodge to be easily accessible, very clean and tidy upon arrival and perfect for our stay; 2 double bedrooms (1 with en-suite bathroom, walk-in wardrobe and dressing table, and 1 twin bedroom. Cutlery and crockery covers everything you could need and excellent kitchen equipment and facilities. The view out onto Windermere was lovely, really good position. We LOVED the hot tub and it was so easy to use. After a long walk, it was blissful to sit in a warm hot tub facing out over Windermere! The Boathouse pub and restaurant on-site is also to be recommended, with a good choice of food and friendly staff. Sunny Brow is a winner and I would whole-heartedly recommend it to anyone. Thank you :) What did you enjoy most about your stay? The hot tub was a highlight, but the whole experience was great. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? We enjoyed wandering around Bowness and Ambleside.

  • "We choose here as the location for our first break with our 4 month old daughter, the lodge was excellent, clean and well equipped for all our needs."

    We very much enjoyed the hot tub and views from the decking after our daughter went off to bed. We would definitely love to return at some point! What did you enjoy most about your stay? We had a lovely relaxing time on our first family holiday with our 4 month old daughter.

    Mrs Tracy WatkinsJun 2016

  • "We had the most amazing break here - the lodge is spotless throughout with all the mod cons you could ever wish for."

    We were blessed with good weather mainly so sitting in the hot tub watching the sun twinkling off the lake was the one of many highlights of our holiday. We will come back and would highly recommend the lodge to anyone wanting a lovely relaxing break in superior accommodation and breathtaking views. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

    Mr Tony ChallengerMay 2016

  • "Myself and 5 friends had a 3 night break at Sunny Brow lodge and can't recommend it enough."

    The lodge is beautiful, in a fantastic location and even with full occupancy there was plenty of space to relax. The hot tub did stop heating on day 2 due to the water level dropping too much (something to do with us all getting in and out no doubt!) and it may be worth including in the written instructions to keep an eye on the water level. As soon as we reported it to the Lodge Hire company they came straight out to fix it, despite it being Saturday teatime. The site is in a great location with many places within walking distance (if you like a good walk) the facilities onsite looked fine too but we didn't use them on this occasion apart from the shop. The only small criticism would be that the site reception staff were a bit unfriendly but they were efficient enough and gave me all the information I needed. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lovely long walks, relaxing on the deck and in the hot tub overlooking the lake. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Lovely Sunday lunch in the Mortal Man in Troutbeck Bridge, nice walk there and back and fab food.

    Mrs Sharon ClishamMay 2016

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Sunny Brow."

    The site has undergone a massive cleanup and our lodge had a new hot tub and balustrade. It is situated in an amazing position with views of Lake Windermere We had a fabulous stay.

  • "As soon as we arrived into the resort we were pleased."

    The reception service was quick and efficient. The lodge was AMAZING. Modern clean and spacious. The decking area had amazing views of Windermere and the hot tub was FANTASTIC. The ensuite room had so much space with a fab walk in wardrobe. The other rooms were also fab. The kitchen had all essentials even plastic glasses for around the hot tub. I have nothing negative to say about the lodge. Booked again for October as soon as we got home. We loved it.

    With the weather being so bad we couldn't do the things we wanted but can't speak highly enough for the staff and am looking forward to returning in April

    Mr Ian WilliamsonDec 2015

  • "A comfortable spot to cope with some of the worst weather the Lakes could throw at us."

    Still a nice view of the Lake and lovely hot tub for the moments it stopped raining were very welcome.facilities at site were also good and it being a quiet time of the year were virtually for our own private use.

    Mrs Valerie HockeyDec 2015

  • "The position of Sunny Brow is good and well equipped."

    I do feel that it is a little tired and requires redecorating and a little modernising, as water damage on walls and some of curtains and bedding a little dated. Saying that we had a vet enjoyable stay. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location between Ambleside and Windermere What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Hawkshead a lovely place to visit

    Mr David HughesOct 2015

  • "We had a wonderful stay at White Cross Bay in Sunny Brow lodge which has an amazing location."

    The park itself was lovely, extremely well kept and maintained. It was very useful having the pub on site if we didn't want to wander far on an evening and the food was really good. Would definitely look at coming back, same accommodation, and hope that we managed the to get the glorious weather we did last week. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location was superb and the lodge was great What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? A boat trip on the lake up to Ambleside.

    Ms Julie HirlamOct 2015

  • "Loved our stay in Sunny Brow."

    The lodge overlooked the lake and the views where amazing. The lodge itself was really nice, but there where just a couple of things that would of made our stay even better. The curtains in the main bedroom smelled of damp, but to the extent that you could smell it on the other side of the room. They definitely need cleaning more (if they've ever been cleaned before). Some of the plates and bowls where not clean so had to clean them all before using them, also the oven tray was not clean and still had bits of food on from the previous guests. These are tiny things that can be resolved quickly and it certainly wouldn't stop me from staying again (as long as those curtains get cleaned!). I would definitely recommend staying in one of the lodges. Gorgeous place! What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Lincoln Horseshoe - excellent walk

    Mrs Louise DerbyshireOct 2015

  • "We book the accommodation without reading a great deal about it."

    The park location is fantastic. Very close to Windermere and Ambelside. The lodge its self is lovely. Great views across the lake as you are only 100m from the shore. We found the accommodation very spacious and well equipped. All three bedroom are very spacious and the master suite with ensuite and walk in wardrobe are amazing. We had a great week and managed to not get wet for 6 day and even saw some sun. Must be the lodge that helped. My only slightly negative comment is that the decking and hot tub are showing there age and need little TLC. This in know way detracted from the holiday. Great place to stay. I'd happily recommend it. We'll be back for more sun! What did you enjoy most about your stay? Hot Tub What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Wray Castle

    Mr Peter EneverSep 2015

  • "Was quiet and lovely with plenty of wildlife at hand."

    Ambleside was good for shopping and eating. The leisure centre was good, however tje the restaurant looked tired as we're the staff with little choice of drinks. Only went there once. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Country air, traquil What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Ambleside

    Mr Christopher BellSep 2015

  • "From the initial booking process with Lake District lodge holidays through to the last day of our stay we have been so impressed."

    excellent communication and superb lodge. we reported that some lights were off and a canny fella was round to sort them. the lodge itself was beautiful and the view was great. the privacy was maintained by a rather large tree, some might take issue with this as it somewhat blocks the view - you can't have it both ways! I honestly would t hesitate in using this company again and in hiring the same lodge. we will most certainly be back for more! What did you enjoy most about your stay? lovely location of the the lodge and the hot tub! What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? a ride on the steamer from bowness

    Mr Simon HadwinSep 2015

  • "The lodge as lovely, clean, tidy."

    A few years old but in very good condition. The club house on site was not & the food was awful, worst meal We have had a any site, would book the lodge again but would give the facilities a miss What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lodge & the lake views What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Bowness was lovely

  • "Had an amazing week end celebrating our daughter's 18th birthday."

    Lovely lodge..in need of a little TLC. Excellent service after reporting problems, kept well informed + things resolved quickly. Loved the hot tub! Would of been a lovely view from decking if bush was trimmed! What did you enjoy most about your stay? Hot tub! What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Low Wood watersports centre

    Mrs Linda MoffatAug 2015

  • "A first class lodge for our party of six; Mum who is 84yrs, myself & hubby, my daughter & hubby, and our grandson 8yrs old."

    Bedrooms and sizes of beds were excellent, especially the twin beds, as we have experienced narrower ones in other self-catering units. There is plenty of comfortable seating in the lounge area, and a large accommodating dining table. The location of the lodge is good, near to the lake, and the only thing stopping it from being an excellent view at the moment, is a spreading tree growing in front of the lodge. This was the only major downfall of our stay, but not enough to stop us from re-booking the same lodge for next year! What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location and comfort of the lodge. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? We love Ambleside, just 4 miles away, perfect for a boat cruise if the weather is kind, which it was for us.

    Mrs Jan HallAug 2015

  • "It was all really really good, location, quality of the lodge, standard of fixtures and fittings and provided things in the lodge was also great and appreciated, facilities in the park were great."

    On the whole definitely a good spot. Only a few minor things which are easily fixed. 1. The shower in the ensuite bathroom to the master bedroom - the head of the shower came off the first time we used it. We managed to push it back on / re-assemble it but then the flow was some what of a trickle and we were very wary in case it flew off again. 2. The TV in the bedroom we couldn't get actual TV channels on it, said no signal 3. Given the size with 3 bedrooms for 6 people and parking for two cars having one barrier fob was insufficient and only one could be obtained form reception. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location, and family/child friendliness. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? The river Rothay between Grasmere and Rydal water is perfect for children under 4 to paddle in. Also high/upper Sweden Bridge welcome after the walk up.

    Mr David MorrisJul 2015

  • "Sunny Brow is a spacious clean lodge with good facilities, very comfortable, good sized beds, walk in wardrobe in main bedroom, easy parking next to lodge."

    It has a nice outlook onto the lake but this is spoilt somewhat by the lodge being right next to the boat launching/ walking access to the lake- there are constant passers by so its not very private and not very quiet ,especially if you like a lie in on holiday ! It would be helpful if this was made clearer on the advert. The kitchen is well equipped and easy to cook in, and everything was nicely presented. Great bathroom and shower . En-suite in main bedroom could do with some tlc and updating. Hot tub was lovely ,but showing its age, and again ,not very private .Also no base for the parasol,so couldn't put it up. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Easy access to Windemere and surrounding area What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Brockhole

    Mrs Elizabeth WilliamsJul 2015

  • "Well located lodge for those who want to watch the goings on at the lake."

    All of the party enjoyed the hot tub .Not the newest but in good condition.Some areas of the lodge are looking a bit worn but the bathrooms have been updated and are fine.Sofas etc very comfortable and seat all the the lodge can take.Beds great and full size singles are a boon. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Sitting on the deck in the sunshine What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Aira falls walk

    Mrs Valerie HockeyJul 2015

  • "After staying at Sunny Brow last year I did a review as requested."

    The sink in the main bedroom on suite, I reported that the plug needed attention as it allowed water to drain quickly from the sink when it was filled, on our stay this time it was still the same, even after I was told it would be rectified. This year the shower heads were faulty, some of the plates and cups were chipped and not nice to use. Plus there are two very smelly damp patches, one in the second bedroom, behind the bedside table nearest the window, the wall and skirting board was black with damp, the second in the walk in wardrobe near the electric supply. The venetian blinds in the lodge were broken and in a very dirty condition. I was also told last year that the decking was going to be repainted, it hadn't and looked a mess. The lodge is looking rather tired and in need of an upgrade. I'm sorry to say we won't be booking this lodge again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The weather and scenery. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Wray Castle

    Mr Alan BewleyJun 2015

  • "I first of all have to say we had a wonderful relaxing holiday at Sunny Brow."

    The site is kept in an immaculate condition throughout, a credit to your grounds staff. The lodge was superb, the hot tub even better, but couldn't get the tv in the bedroom working. The view was fantastic, perhaps fitting a perspex window in the railing would make it even better. Staff round site were approachable and helpful and there were no problems with noise or disturbance. We had a very, very nice stay and we will be back for our third visit. I would hope you would share our thanks with all of your staff, THEY DESERVE IT. THANK YOU. Mrs Pauline Dargue. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The relaxation What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? A small tea shop up an allyway at Bowness, it has a wonderjul selection of teas which are made in a teapot and comes with a tea strainer, marvellous

    Mrs Pauline DargueJun 2015

  • "On arrival we were very impressed with the layout of the lodge which was clean, comfortable and well equipped with wonderful views across the lake."

    Would definitely go back. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? The Beatrix Potter attraction at Bowness and Bridge House at Ambleside.

    Mr Andrew HarringtonMay 2015

  • "This was our second visit to sunny brow."

    The first time was fantastic because the weather was wonderful. This time we had torrential rain for two out of the four days so not as good, however the accommodation was very comfortable, the location with the lake view was as beautiful and we would be happy to recommend sunny brow to our friends. The availability of wheelchair hire would be helpful. We had to get one from the visitor centre in Bowness. Also you only get one fob to open the barrier per accommodation. There was six of us in two cars and both parties wanted to go out at different times so only having one fob was a bit inconvenient.

    There is ample parking for 2 cars (or even 3 if they are small!) It is a well furnished lodge with everything you could need and any problems are swiftly dealt with. The location on White Cross Bay is fantastic as you can use the leisure facilities (pool and gym) and there's a pub on site with very reasonably priced food (we didn't eat there but the food looked good with good sized portions) It's just a shame you can't book the weather too!

  • "Have spent a lovely week at sunny brow in the lake district."

    The lodge was situated right next to the waters edge which is very nice indeed. My one concern is that a tree is planted right in front of the lodge and obscures some of the amazing views available. The lodge is very nice and comfortable but it does need a little bit of a make over just to put it back on top again. The area of white cross bay is beautiful and the views amazing. Overall I would recommend sunny brow to anyone who wants a nice relaxing place to stay whilst in the lakes. We will be going back for sure.

    Lodge was perfectly set out, immaculate & the hot tub was amazing. We took our own bbq as we weren't sure if there would be one provided, there was one there but unfortunately whoever used it last left it filthy so shame on them! The location of lodge was perfect for the kids as there was no traffic there and we were right on the lakeside. I would say it would benefit from a new outside table & chairs as a couple of chairs were broken, having said that we just brought a couple of dining chairs outside. I would recommend this lodge to everyone & we will definitely be returning next year. The indoor pool & facilities were spot on & very clean too :) What did you enjoy most about your stay?

    Mrs Lorna AtkinsonJun 2014

  • "The outside of the lodge is in serious need of renovation and was quite scruffy."

    The lodge (particularly the bathrooms) were not as clean as they could have been - lots of black build up in the showers which needed cleaning away. Damp smell in the living room by the verandah door (coming from the sofa I think) and a very dirty oven. Other than that it was a good location and the standard of accommodation was ok. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lakeside location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Trip to fell foot park and trip to National Trust - Ullswater water falls.

Pam P.S If you want me to do another review and leave out the 2 small issues I have no problem with that at all. What did you enjoy most about your stay? the cabin and views across the lake. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? to stay longer than a weekend as we found it wasnt long enough.

  • "The lodge was spacious and comfortable with lovely views of the lake."

    The only thing that lets it down is the condition of the outside decking and broken fencing around the bottom. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The hot tub and lake views What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Cruise on Lake Windermere

    Mrs Catherine BrunnockMay 2014

  • "We booked Sunny Brow for a family holiday for my husband's 50th birthday."

    The location is superb and could not be faulted. However, we were quite disappointed with a few aspects of the accommodation. It seemed somewhat neglected and in need of some updating. The patio furniture was broken - the table had previously been repaired, but was still broken and we were unable to have any meals on it. The hot tub area was in need of modernisation and the deck cleaning and restaining. The hot tub itself was old and not all of the jets worked. Inside the lodge the walls all needed decorating and the carpets were dirty, particularly around the radiators and corners were there was a clear build up of dirt. Also the bathrooms were tired and all had mould around all the seals. The complimentary milk that was left for us to use was out of date. The fridge was in need of repair as we couldn't put anything heavy, like milk in the door as the tray was coming away from the door. The freezer was in desperate need of defrosting. There was dust in many areas of the lodge, and the bedrooms were tired. The pillows for decoration on the bed were dirty and needing washing. However, we did have a great stay, the weather was fantastic and we had the perfect location, but it was sad to see that this had been a once loved lodge, and I got the impression it was up for sale and the love had gone. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The weather and location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk from WCB to Ambleside for lunch and back

    Mrs Heather SmithApr 2014

  • "Accommodation was very comfortable and plenty big enough for 4 adults and 2 children."

    Lodge provided everything we needed for a pleasant holiday. Although the accommodation was cleaned on arrival, the attention to detail could have been a little more thorough - hoovering of the carpets (rectified by us emptying the hoover cylinder and doing it ourselves) / general dusting - but overall the accommodation was good, warm and comfortable. Location of lodge was excellent and park facilities as good as on previous visits - will be returning to the park in the future as suits our needs well. Overall a pleasant stay with good level of service received from Lake District Lodge Holidays who offered a simple and straightforward booking procedure. Many thanks What did you enjoy most about your stay? location & park facilities What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Brockhole Visitor Center / Tree Top Trek

    Mrs Laura CharltonApr 2014

  • "+ view, hot tub, en-suite bedroom with walk in wardrobe, facilities - not enough seating in lounge, will be noisy in summer due to location by marina."

    What did you enjoy most about your stay? Hot tub What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walking (anywhere, it's all beautiful)

Commercial vehicles, caravans, camper vans, Hen or Stag parties are not permitted onsite. Dogs must be kept on leads at all times and are not be left alone in the lodges at any point during your stay.

You will be staying on an operational holiday park, which means work may be undertaken from time to time by the park owners during your stay.

For the comfort of other holidays guests we request that noise is kept to a minimum. Usage of the hot tub is between 10am and 10pm only. If you are found to breach these timings then you may be asked to vacate the park with no call for a refund.

All hot tubs are maintained to strict industry standards and HSE guidelines by separate qualified independent contractors on behalf of the property owners. This includes changing the water between guest stays and checking the water condition on a regular basis.

Whilst every effort is made to have a hot tub ready for immediate use by the arrival time stated, this may not always be possible. In such cases the hot tub will usually be ready to use later that day unless otherwise advised. In such cases no compensation or refund is payable unless the hot tub is faulty.

Information about using a hot tub safely is provided at all lodges with a hot tub and on a prominent notice near the tub. All hot tub users should wear an appropriate bathing suit.
