"We have really enjoyed our stay at Alfresco Lodge."
The open plan kitchen and lounge was a great comfortable space. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need. The site itself was quiet and very well located. We used the bus several times, and it was great to have the bus stop just outside the park. Good size bedrooms, allowed us to put up our travel cot in the double bedroom. The lodge was spotless and exactly as described. We would definitely book this lodge again.
Hi Emily, we are delighted to note that you had enjoyed your stay at Alfresco lodge. Many thanks for your positive feedback. Gary & Sue Property Owner

"Great lodge, clean and comfortable."
Some good close walks and a bus stop nearby by for a trip to Ambleside or Windermere for a variety of pubs and restaurants. Only small gripe was when we had a night in the TV wouldn't connect to Internet for apps like Netfilix etc other than that it was spot on and would definitely come back.
Thanks Matt, glad you enjoyed your stay in the area. Taking your feedback onboard Gary & Sue Property Owner

"Good lodge, great location."
Literally 3min walk from kids park and sports court. Restaurant/bar great food, not silly prices (but not cheap). Entertainment good for young kids. Sports court great for older kids. Lodge very modern. Recently renovated I would think. All necessary facilities. Clean. Good beds. Separate toilet as well as toilet in bathroom. Would definitely stay again. Only suggestion- possible plug in air fresheners in main living area.
Many thanks Adam, delighted you enjoyed your break. We will take your feedback forward. TY. Gary & Sue Property Owner

"Really lovely comfortable lodge."
It was really nicely decorated and the beds and living area were very comfortable. The lodge was super clean and fresh and had everything we needed for our stay. The outside veranda was quite big as well which our children loved playing on of an evening.
Delighted that you enjoyed your stay Nicola, many thanks for your kind words Property Owner

"Really enjoyed our stay."
Alfresco Lodge is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. The decor is lovely and the beds are very comfortable as is the living room furniture. The kitchen equipment is really good quality and the fridge freezer is enormous. The Lodge is just a short walk to the lake and a short drive to everything Lake Windermere has to offer. We didn't use the buses, but there seemed to be a very good service with a bus stop right at the gate to the park. We would have no hesitation in recommending it to our friends or indeed using it again ourselves.
Many thanks Joyce, we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay. TY. Sue & Gary Property Owner

"Alfresco Lodge was absolutely perfect!"
Like a home away from home. Having all of the same luxuries as home made our stay really comfortable. Really comfortable beds and furniture, great shower, good heating, lovely decor and immaculately clean - everything we needed! Fantastic location too! Would definitely recommend, and hope to stay again in the future!
Thanks Kerry, we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again Property Owner

"This was our seventh and final stay after touring Scotland and heading home."
Just the two of us so the lodge was spacious, clean, warm, and comfortable, nice beds and bedding. Price was discounted. Quiet site when we stayed, just before main season. Saw pool, football and play park for youngsters, bar and terrace. So all plus points. Little downside was: would have helped to have been made aware Kirkstone Pass was closed, meant we had a long detour after an already long and tiring journey south with limited diversion signs. On arrival realised we hadn’t been given barrier code, took a while to sort out and gain access with out-of-hours security. Also no advance map of the site. So we slowly found our lodge, No tea towels, No oven cloth (tells you to pack one in arrivals info!). Three dishwasher tablets. No hand wash or toiletries. Parkdean Customer WiFi is not secure, so found a code on the router and used that (secure). But the WiFi dropped out for a day and then intermittent. This may matter for some guests. Our last day the site changed as it was the start of a bank holiday weekend. Lots more people, dog walkers, children, bikes, cars, more noise. Whilst this is not our scene any more, the site is safe and well equipped for families. Would stay again, but out of season.
Hi Ian, many thanks for your feedback, it is invaluable. I’m disappointed to note Sykes had not provided the barrier code for you (literally had that conversation with the business contact last weekend) and was promised they had this in hand. Other points noted & will be addressed. Thank You Gary & Sue Property Owner
