Higher Clearwater Reviews

Martin
Absolutely beautiful lodge the best we have all stayed in .
Karen
We've had a lovely week in a comfortable, clean and brilliantly equipped lodge. Fantastic views, from the outdoor decking, super comfortable beds. Kids happy with smart TVs in each room and excellent wifi (and board games too!) , dogs happy with enclosed garden. Great location for lakes, nearby supermarkets. We could have stayed for another week anRead mored would love to come back. Also recommend visit to Kirkby Lonsdale a pretty village with riverside walks. Hide
J
Beautiful lodge set in an idyllic area, very well thought out, furnished with everything you need to guarantee a lovely relaxing break away. The location is very peaceful and beautiful. Only gave 4 stars for the location due to the need for a car. There some lovely walks but you do have to walk down a country road with no path. It's about 15-20 minRead mores drive to Kirkby Lonsdale which is lovely and Windermere is about 30 mins drive. Would highly recommend and will definitely return if we can. Hide
Cheryl
We booked a weekday break with Higher Clearwater because of 5-star reviews and pics, so were hoping the house lived up to reviews. To say the house exceeded expectations is an understatement. A beautiful, comfortable home, with everything well thought out: from crockery & utensils, laundry facilities, to PlayStation for the kids, extra games and ofRead more course the jacuzzi! Graeme was an incredible host, sending loads of info an immediately responsive to questions. Already planning our return visit Hide
Denise
I would recommend this property to anyone, the host was so helpful, cleanliness and comfort was brilliant and the views are amazing.
Joanne
Wow, commendation very high standard everything you could possibly want is in the house. The garden through security for your dogs. views from the balconies are absolutely spectacular very peaceful cannot recommend this highly enough
Elaine
The cottage was really beautiful, the beds so comfortable and facilities/equipment excellent. The outside terrace overlooking the quarry lake was really gorgeous, very peaceful. Felt at home immediately and will be booking again.
Tracey
This lodge is amazing! It is extremely well equipped, very clean and comfortable. The welcome basket is the best we have ever received and is the perfect start to the holiday. The outdoor furniture and bbq truly make this outdoor living in the summer months and if its raining there is a comfortable sofa and a TV with sky and Netflix! The views are beautiful over the diving lake and as well as watching the wild life you can watch the very brave swimmers. Great lodge in a great location!
Caroline
Lovely generously proportioned space, lovely comfy, super king beds and fabulous showers. I loved the open glassed windows that pull right back, making the outdoor space link with the indoors space. The deck area was wonderful and where we hung out most weekend between the lounge furniture and hot tub. We didn't need to go out we had wonderful view s and a very comfortable spot - Fabulous for a lovely relaxing break. Would definitely book again.
Tony
No. 8 Higher Clearwater is one of eight cottages at the site. This cottage is exceptional regarding location and comfort; walk in and it has a warm and welcoming feel. The description on the Cottages website is accurate, but also there is a dog cage if needed plus a box of extras for the dog, such as towels blankets and toys and the site is secure. The best recommendation I can make is: it is like house sitting in a very upmarket family home.
Karen
Beautiful house and has everything you could think of. Bedrooms are a great size and beds are very comfortable. There was 4 of us and we had a fantastic week and would definitely recommend

Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 3 Miles
Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction.  With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun.  You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money.  There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.
Happy Mount Park - LA4 5AQ
about 7 Miles
Happy Mount Park has attractions for the whole family including several play areas, a miniature railway, crazy golf, putting green and trampolines, there is also a paddling pool where the little ones can splash around in the summer and a café where the adults can relax with a drink. During the summer months and especially during school holidays live music can often be enjoyed.
Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 17 Miles
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.
South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 18 Miles

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.

Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 23 Miles
Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 29 Miles
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.
