This cabin is in a lovely peaceful spot on the site. We had a lovely stay. Cannot recommend it highly enough. We booked as last minute break, make booking on Sunday for arrival on Tuesday (2 days later). Received a message to state needed to check a few things before booking could be confirmed. Nothing by mid morning following day so phonecall was Read moreneeded. Booking was then accepted. But no checking in details forwarded. Another call on route to property to access this info.

Ivan

The location itself was fantastic and I can only respect the brilliance of the environment. The cabin was super clean and setup for us to crash as soon as we arrived. The welcoming gifts were lovely with chocolate, cookies and much needed coffee!

Rhian

A great little place to stay and very central in the lakes. We felt very comfortable in the lodge and it had everything we needed. We would definitely stay at the property again.

Raymond

Disappointing and need of updating. Lodge smells of wet dog and shower tray mouldy. Not the home comforts one would expect for 600+ we paid for 3 night stay. However the views and location are beautiful for walks and exploring

Gillian

Perfect lovely start to our Christmas .chalet warm welcoming and comfortable .thank you to owner for welcome pack .ambleside so beautiful with all the lights .thank you .

Samantha

A lovey place to stay with a dog, with everything we needed. The view was lovely. We visited in the winter when the pool was shut which was a shame but it is a small pool more suited to children having a splash about. It was easy to get to the local villages and lots of lovely walks near by. Although we didnt visit the nearby pub it is within walkiRead moreng distance. Hide

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.

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.

Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD

about 19 Miles

We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look". Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project. The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish! Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...

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.

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.
