Ruperts Retreat Reviews

Ronald
Wow... Ruperts Retreat is fantastic. This lodge is one of three overlooking the pond. The large terrace has lovely views over the countryside. The open plan has a fully equipped kitchen and breakfast bar plus a circular dining table. The lounge area provides comfortable seating opposite the feature fireplace and a huge television. The bathroom has a large bathtub for relaxing, plus a nice shower room. Very peaceful and quiet. We will definitely return to Ruperts Retreat...
It was a beautiful lodge and the scenery and quietness was first class Everything was there for you the only thing we couldn't work out was the Bluetooth system? ... we saw speakers in the ceiling...we just gave up in the end and had a drink...
Firstly you get there and no reception or anyone to help? ??then there is no frying pan or whisk or potato masher but the most annoying is there is no information about how to setup about WiFi. From getting there to going home not one person came to see if everything was ok??? What a shame
Graham
The lodge was excellent and exactly like described on Skyes Cottages. We had a very enjoyable week here, and the hot tub was a bonus. The lodge is fitted wall to wall with smart equipment, I do believe that a basic written instruction guide would prove helpful to those not as tech savvy as others. I would have no hesitation to recommend Ruperts Retreat and hopefully will return at a future date.
Lovely place, immaculate, quiet and relaxing, hot tub a brilliant bonus, as was the patio directly overlooking the lake, close to cities and villages, missing roxy the dog who came to visit us every day, the website pictures show it as it is, you won't be dissapointed if you book this place.
Wifi couldn't connect to internet that's all. Very minor so not a big issue. Overall great stay.
Steven
Had a lovely weekend away at Ruperts Retreat. Lovely location very rural yet so close to cities if you want them Preston, Blackpool 40 minutes to Lake district which was beautiful. Lodge is set overlooking 2 ponds enjoyed watching the ducks. Lodge itself is stunning massive TV and finer furnishings which give it that extra special touch. Hot tub was great! Highly recommend and we will be back.
Beautiful lodge, furnished to a very high standard. Lodge has everything you need and very quiet with lovely views.

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 10 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.
Happy Mount Park - LA4 5AQ
about 12 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.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 20 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.
South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 23 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.
