Middle Longlands Reviews

We had an excellent stay and thoroughly enjoyed the cosy feel of the lovely decorated lodge. It was a perfect getaway and tbe location was great
We had a great stay at Middle Longlands. Louise was a brilliant host really friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It's an ideal location for walks and the cabin itself is really peaceful. We had a wonderful stay and can't wait to come back.
This was the most amazing place to stay & would recommend it 100 to anyone seeking a beautiful spot for respite & peace. The host was so accommodating & lovely. No query was too much trouble thank you!!
Beautiful place to stay, very friendly and helpful. Information left inside for places to visit and nearby take aways. Very clean and everything you need inside. Would definitely recommend to others.
We had a great few days, lovely location for biking and not too far from the high fells for walking. Cartmel village is just a short walk for good pubs.
Richard
Very impressed with the cleanliness and overall condition of the property, felt like it was brand new and we were the first people to stay there. Settled in straight away, well stocked with everything we needed, everything worked as expected and was super cosy, felt like a home from home apart from the shower there was.better than the shower at my real home! Lovely views from the cabin and we lucked out with the weather, so enjoyed sitting out on the deckin the hot tub in the sun. Definitely recommended!!
Lovely property and holiday Could do with a vacuum to hand . And towel change half way through week holiday . No instructions given on hob
Maurice
This is a lovely pod to stay in I would recommend this holiday stay to anyone, where its situated its beautiful the host is very friendly, and if you like no noise and privacy. ., this is the one for you .. and also the hottub is quite different, and unusual best holiday im Britain Ive ever had. A. Guyatt
Our stay was amazing, we absolutely loved everything about it. The beautiful views, hot tub amazing, clean and tidy, beautiful lodges. Louise was great and friendly, we loved having a chat! Would absolutely come back again. Also, Trev the taxi driver was great, if you stay he is fantastic to help get you around if youre going into Cartmel etc. Thanks for a lovely stay.
Joseph
We had a brilliant week staying at Middle Longlands. The location is perfect for exploring the Lake District and far enough away for some lovely early morning and evening peace and quiet. Louise was great and very attentive. The pod was great. Well equipped and very clean and well looked after. Glass of wine on the decking with a dip in the hot tub afterwards followed by a relaxing log fire was the perfect end to great days out. We didnt want to leave and will be back for sure.
Christine
Absolutely stunning part of England, gorgeous view from pod, very comfortable with added extra of hot tub to relax and chill at the end of an excellent day's fishing and walking. Close to the Lakes and premier shop minutes drive away to Cartmel, home of sticky toffee pudding an absolute must. We will definitely be booking another stay in the not too distant future. Highly recommended. 1010
Well looked after pods with lots of lovely little local touches. Great views from the hot tub and the BBQ was excellent. Hosts very friendly.
We had the most incredible stay at Middle Longlands it truly turned into a home from home for the week. The pod was exceptionally clean and had everything we could have needed for a comfortable stay. The location was brilliant being just a short drive from Windermere, Ambleside, Grasmere etc but quiet and away from the summer bustle of the Lake District, and Cartmel is a lovely little town full of nice pubs and coffee shops. Loads to do and explore, but also it was so nice to come back to a cosy pod, fire up the BBQ and relax in the hot tub after a busy day. Would definitely recommend, and will certainly be making a return trip, thank you!
Really enjoyed our stay. Location amazing and reassuring to have the owners nearby. Lovely little touches to the stay, like the milk in fridge etc. Definitely will rebook
Gorgeous place with beautiful surroundings. Just a mile from the village of Carmel, which is surprisingly lively for such a small place. Great food and live music in the square. Highly recommended for anyone wanting total relaxation, with access to scenic walks and lovely pubs and restaurants near by
Darren
Fantastic place, amazing views, relaxing and would fully recommend
Kayleigh
I would highly recommend these cabins, we stayed for 4 nights in the Middle Longlands cabin with a hot tub and BBQ on the decking area. The inside is clean, cosy and has everything you need from a little kitchen with fridge and freezer section, oven and hobs to make meals, fully stocked tea and coffee, biscuits alongside a complimentary bottle of Prosecco and a sticky toffee pudding. The location was perfect for us, 10 minute drive to Lake Windermere as we enjoy paddleboarding aswell as other lovely local walks and towns. Petrol station and local shop were a few minutes down the road. Louise was a fantastic host, left our keys and gate fob to come and go as we please, you park up next to the cabin you stay in and can contact Louise via message if needed or when she checks the hot tubs every morning. Overall very friendly and accommodating. Our only thing was the cabins can get quite hot when the weather is nice however the bifold doors were a gods send and I recommend closing all the blinds when you go out for the day. For colder days there is a log fire and blankets aswell as heating. The views are exceptional and very peaceful, would definitely stay again.
We stayed at middle long lands for our honeymoon and everything was perfect. It was very clean, had everything we needed, was in the perfect position and Louise was an amazing host. The location itself was fantastic, very private and secluded but within walking distance of Cartmel. Would definitely visit again
Louise the owner was very friendly and gave the impression that nothing was too much ch trouble. All the little finishing touches I. Drinks were n the fridge, biscuits etc made us feel welcome. The views from the photos d were amazing
We had an absolutely fantastic stay. So quiet and peaceful. The pod we stayed in was spotless, well stocked with tea, coffee, sugar biscuits. There was even a small glass bottle of milk, a small bottle of prosecco and a bottle of beer in the fridge on arrival. Very comfortable bed. WiFi was strong and reliable. TV had the options of netflix, amazon video, iplayer etc even though we didnt spend much time watching the tv. Most of the time at the lodge we spent on the decked area either in the hot tub or sat with a bottle of bubbly and some nibbles. Louise was fantastic and very helpful, even reccomended some places to visit and a way to get to cartmel village without walking on the road too much. Given the fairly remote location don't expect to be able to get a quick fix meal on an evening unless you book at one of the local pubs in Cartmel village but if you go prepared there is everything you need to be able to cook a lovely meal yourself, even a fancy gas BBQ with temperature guage. All round the pod was clean, spacious and extremely comfortable. Perfect if you just want to get away from it all and relax. The farm is only 2030 min drive away from Kendal and Windermere. Good access to main roads to the whole southern peninsula and cartmel is a 5 min drive away, Grange 1015 mins away. There is also some wonderful walks around but that's a given when you are in Cumbria. Thank you for a wonderful stay Louise and see you again.
Olivia
Me and my partner just stayed here Friday to Wednesday and we cant believe it. Such a stunning place, very very clean and comfy. The hot tub was absolutely amazing. Owners were so friendly as were their dog the view was beautiful and so peaceful. We were very sad to be leaving but cant wait to come again already looking at booking our next trip.
We have stayed in many cabinstree housesshepherds huts over the years and without a doubt this has been one of the very best. The cabin is in an idealic setting in the grounds of the farm, with views to die for. Cartmel village is beautiful and walking distanceshort drive to, with a variety of places to eat and drink and to take plenty of photo's as very picturesque village and the home of sticky toffee pudding. Windermere only 20 mins away and Keswick less than an hour, making this a prime spot to venture from. The cabin itself ticked every box and cannot be faulted and the owners, Will & Louise, there if you need them and more than happy to stop and chat and help to make the stay memorable. We will come back and considering booking all 4 cabins and possibly the cottage too for a family vacation it was that good!
Bikram
I had booked this for my brother and sister in law as an anniversary gift. They were so happy when they came back. It was so clean and tidy my brother thought he was given a brand new cabin. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a break. They said the owners live close by so if you ever have any issues you can contact them at any time. Very friendly people, will be planning another trip soon. Thank you so much
We loved are stay. Fact it only had 4 cabins . Peaceful area . We were watching the lambs play in the fields . This place was everything we were looking for . We will be back .
Caroline
We loved everything about our stay at Middle Longlands. The cottage was lovely, really well appointed and spotlessly clean, and the decking, hot tub and BBQ outdoors made the space seem even larger. Louise sent us a great welcome email with details of local attractions and we really felt that nothing was too much trouble during our visit. We will definitely come back again.
Absolutely stunning location, Cartmel was just down the road it had a few lovely pubs and shops. The pod was so cosy and it was pure relaxation in the hot tub. I would definitely recommend to stay here it was fab.
What a fantastic place, was everything that was advertised and more Such a relaxing place.
Charlotte
Beautiful little pod in a lovely part of the world. I cant recommend it highly enough. Although, I would add a cheese grater to the kitchen!! It certainly worth a stay if youre heading to the South Lakes. And the couple running it are really nice with a fabulous pair of dogs!
Steven
WOW.What can I say. .myself and my wife stopped here and what an amazing beautiful little place it was!! Amazing views really hot hot tub clean quite and the owners very very friendly the hills that are in veiw are a lovely walk and definitely passes the day away and the ullswater lakes are definitely a must absolutely outstanding. Definitely worth stopping here you wont regret it
Darran
Had a lovely relaxed weekend, the pod was very cosy and had everything that you needed and a nice touch by the owner, would highly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to return.
Michelle
We loved our stay! The pod was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Beautiful views and perfect setting for a stroll into Cartmel and onto Grange. Hot tub was bliss!
Thank you for a perfect stay! ! Cabin was gorgeous & first class cleanhad everything we needed for our visit, with some surprise lovely extras!! Beautiful view to wake up to & only a small drive to some fantastic places!! Thank you to Louise owner this was the stress free break we needed!!
Shannon
Absolutely wonderful stay me and my boyfriend wanted a peaceful quiet week away to relax in the hot tub and we got exactly that and the place was cute and clean and tidy even had bathe robes which was lovely we had the best time! !
Me and my boyfriend enjoyed every minute of our stay in the middle Longlands. We can not fault the place in any way. It was just as the pictures shown. Very clean, comfy bed, log burner was great, hot tub was consistently hot. The owners were very welcoming and accommodating. Very nice people and place. Would recommend anyone to visit and we will be booking again in the future. Our minor recommendation would be not having a rail to put clothes on. It was absolutely fine for ourselves however if you were going for longer than a few nights you may want to possibly hang clothes up. Overall so pleased with everything. Amazing place.
Just had the most amazing weekend away, the place was absolutely spotless and had everything you could ask for including some extra goodies. Louise and her family are lovely and made us feel welcome, the Hot tub was brilliant and has a beautiful view. Will definitely be back next year, thanks for having us!
The accomodation was exactly as we expected it. Super clean, hot tub was running all day and night so you could go in whenever you wanted to. Host came and met us as we got to the property and helped us with how to work certain things in the property. The email of recommendations for things to do and places to eat was also really helpful. We would definitely go back.
Magdalene
Booked for my husbands 60th he was over the moon will definitely be booking again thankyou Mr and Mrs haley from Manchester. ..
Amazing stay. The cabins are great, the hot tub and log burner are two highlights of the cabin. Location is excellent and couldn't recommend the host Louise anymore. Would come back if we return to Cartmel.

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals.  Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area.  Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos.  At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed.  Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.

This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.

Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
