Esk Pike Lodge Reviews

I had a lovely stay at Esk Pike lodge, i stayed 3 nights. it is very homely especially at this time of year with the christmas tree and decorations up! me and my partner absolutely loved it no faults everything was just perfect. Very clean lodge with everything you need for your stay. I have stayed at white cross before in different lodges but this one is just everything and more. The owners provide you with a variety of games, internet and a smart tv. I would 100 recommend and i will definitely be staying again!

We couldnt get WiFi as the password provided did not work. The kitchen could do with a few more utensils such as a colander, wine glasses maybe a small folding table to eat at. Especially when the weather isnt good enough to sit on decking.

This was a lovely, comfy, cosy lodge, which was just the right size for a family of 34. The hot tub is an added bonus. We enjoyed out stay and will book again. However the WIFI is terrible, we could not access the private WIFI account at all and the park one drops out constantly, the TV had no signal whatsoever!! I know you do not go on holiday to watch TV but with a teenager and a rainy day there was not much else to do!! The only other things worth a mention, there is no dining table again not an issue if you plan on eating out every night and no clothes horse which made it a bit difficult to dry swimming costumes and towels after the hot tub when the weather was bad! As stated these are minor things we loved our stay and the lodge and have already recommended it to friends and family and are planning a return visit.

Parinya

Everything is perfect Perfect perfect! Beautiful location and the property is beautiful. You can see the sunset from the hot tub. The bed so cosy and very comfy bed make you dont want to leave the bed

I stayed at Esk Pike Lodge with my partner and it was a lovely, cosy space for the two of us. A lovely secluded spot, felt like we were high up in the trees looking out the windows. Very quiet and peaceful, beautiful spot. We travelled by trainbus and there are very convenient bus stops right outside the park. We couldn't figure out how to get the fire on, my partner and I followed the instructions provided but nothing happened. But it was still warm once the radiators heated up. The little village nearby was lovely to walk through and plenty of nice places for coffee or to shop. Not far from the lake front either. The hot tub hut was lovely, we were thankful for the shelter over the hot tub with the torrential rain during our stay. Only thing to mention would be the hairdryer was covered in something sticky and looked like it could break off. It still worked but I couldn't remove or clean whatever was stuck to it. But everything else was clean and we really enjoyed our stay.

Colette

This lodge was lovely and cosy. In the perfect position. Brilliant hot tub.

Lovely lodge, well placed for privacy. Hot tub was excellent and clearly well maintained, we really enjoyed making the most of it during the evenings. Lovely lounge and fire which made for cosy nights. Double bedroom was very comfortable. A few minor adjustments would make the lodge perfect. For example, there was not adequate glassware. Dining space inside was tight and there were only 2 of us. The shower room could do with some love and attention. All in all we had a great stay and would return.

Robert

Really nice lodge, great hot tub, in a good location. Well placed for exploring the lakes.

We loved are stay at esk pike lodge soon as we walked through the door we realised that we had picked a good one the hot tub was amazing the lodge was cosy had everything you need and most of all was on a lovely part of the park very private. . the kids loved it and have already asked if we can go back next year so will definitely be returning..thanks for an amazing stay xx

Victoria

We loved our week stay at Esk Pike. The cabin was cosy and clean and the hot tub was a big win. A couple of extras would give it a 10 however. There was no clothes maiden...it was difficult to dry clothes and towels, especially if using the hot tub and swimming everyday. Secondly, out of 3 phones...non of us could connect to the WiFi at all. Two of us couldn't even get phone reception and the third had to buy extra data. I know it is advertised as not being strong and ran by the resort, but the log on details were not parkdean so very confusing. All in all, a great stay...a good base for exploring Windermere and surrounding areas, just a couple of small things would have made it 100.

Fantastic holiday at Esk Pike, clean and comfortable accommodation in a peaceful location on the park. Loved relaxing in the very private hot tub after days out exploring the lakes. Would recommend the lodge to family and friends, definitely hope to return in the future.

Absolutely brilliant! Such a lovely lodge with loads of privacy! Will definitely be back! Would recommend to anyone!

Absolutely loved our mini break away. Small slight disappointment but also quite nice was the lack of signal and unconnectable Wifi. Required to leave the site to obtain signal to contact friends who was looking after our house while we were away, causing a slight hinderance

A basic but comfy and warm lodge. We had a great few days here. If I was to ask or request one addition, would be a clothes airerdryer. We had torrential rain, so consent wet coats, socks, clothing and also for the towels after hot tub use.

The site the lodge was located on was great and overall the accommodation was amazing. The only negative was unfortunately we couldn't stay in the main double room due to the extremely strong musty smell that persisted despite leaving the windows open. This was disappointing. We still enjoyed the lodge.

What can I say about Esk Pike Lodge, the living room or lounge if your posh is very cosy, nice setteesofabed, big t. V not a lot of channels about 20 on freeview., lovely fireplace, nice carpet. The kitchen has all the usual items you would need, kettle, microwave ,toaster, oven, hob, fridge freezer, crockery etc. The bedrooms both have t.vs and drawers for your clothes, the main bedroom has an overbed wardrobe although the middle cupboard was padlocked for whatever reason. The bathroom was nice with a decent shower in it, towels were provided. Oh yeah and a hot tub which we used every day we were there. Now the downsides of Esk pike lodge. there isn't many. 1. the mattress in the main bedroom was not good for me or my wife it was too soft and springy, so I ended up sleeping on the settee and my wife on the single bed, who's mattress was also no good for me. 2. no place for a BBQ, not that we could have had one as it rained all the time we were there. 3. the wifi, its not brilliant, we had 2 days with no internet service at all, so basically used up all our data allowances on the mobiles, I mean I wasn't expecting superfast fibre broadband, but some internet connection would have been nice. now in conclusion would I stay at Esk pike lodge again, simple answer YES,we're already looking for next year would I recommend this lodge to other people, again simple answer YES I WOULD, its a lovely cosy lodge in a quiet part of the park. one last thing, on the morning we were leaving I was sat outside when a DEER came walking past, which was quite a nice ending to our weekend break

Lovely little lodge, great facilities on site

Mr Phillip Brooks

Ms Kelly Jones

Me and my daughter had a lovely relaxing stay at EskPike. The location was secluded and peaceful and the Hot Tub was fantastic, especially as it was in its own enclosed section for privacy. We found it very welcoming and homely but I did struggle for comfort in the beds and this resulted in a poor sleep pattern through our stay. The cabin was clean and tidy, but I feel the outside could have been cleaned down and freed from all the cobwebs etc. As a whole we really enjoyed our stay and definitely returned home relaxed and refreshed as planned.

Mr Anthony Hankin

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our short break in Esk Pike Lodge. The lodge is very wellequipped and had everything we needed during our stay. With commanding views over the park, the lodge is nestled into a small wooded area. We found the lodge to be very clean and tidy, as well as being extremely cosy on the colder evenings. The position of the hot tub is fantastic, as we were able to listen to birdsong while watching the sun go down on several occasions, which was extremely relaxing. It really is the perfect place to stay in the lakes and we wouldn't hesitate to book again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location of the lodge and the hot tub.

Enjoyed a fabulous weekend at Esk Pike Lodge. The lodge was very cosy and comfortable, the hot tub was great and liked the fact that it was secluded. Ideal location as a short bus ride to Windamere or Ambleside, bus stop just outside the park. The amenities on the park were great we didn't use the pool but did have a drink in the bar clubhouse.

Mr Chris Allen

We stayed here for our honeymoon as we've always wanted to stay in a traditional log cabin and this did not disappoint. On first arrival the reception was so friendly clean and looked so picturesque. As we were approaching our cabin we were amazed at how private and spacious it was with lovely views through all the trees it just felt cozy before we got through the door. The inside of the cabin was very well kept clean tidy and again every room was cozy with nice little finishing touches. We didn't expect board games and a selection of dvds in the livingroom this was a nice little touch for family's. The hot tub was amazing, clean and a lovely experience to sit under the little hut which made the hot tub private even though nobody was over looking it anyway but it was a nice finishing touch. We loved every minute of it and are that impressed we are thinging of bringing our girls back in the future. Thank you for a lovely stay. What did you enjoy most about your stay?
