Super lodge, clean, comfortable and well equipped including good showers, with the essentials included, e.g. hand soap, kitchen paper, loo rolls, dishwasher tablets, and sharp knives- these can sometimes be lacking in other properties. It had excellent outdoor areas and an enclosed deck which was perfect for our dog: a 16 year old beagle who still thinks she is two.
It is in the middle of no where, but that adds to the charm, So relaxing, and a wildlife haven. We last saw red squirrels in the Lake District about 15 years ago, and chose this lodge because of the mention of them in the reviews. We were not disappointed and kept entertained by the numerous daily visits these adorable creatures made. We also experienced many varieties of birds, some we have rarely seen before; including woodpeckers, jays and siskens. The plentiful supply of food for the squirrels and birds supplied by the owners meant we were able to top up the many feeders surrounding the lodge so ensuring frequent visits.
