Cedar Lodge Reviews

Really great lodge, looks like its been modernised, kitchen well equipped, good location. The thing letting this down is the smell looking at previous reviews from as far back as 2017 this has been an issue and lies within the main bedroom ensuite. This lodge would be absolutely fantastic if that issue was sorted.
We had a great holiday, the only downside was the mouldy smell in the onsuite bathroom and main bedroom, there is mould on the ceiling in a lot of areas and bathroom had a very bad smell probably from drainage. This isn't a criticism just an observation as the chalet was perfect apart from that, bigger than expected, well stocked with plates, glasses etc. The ironing board was broken and no mop and bucket to clean the floors especially when it rained. We would certainly book again and would recommend to family and friends.
Elizabeth
Cedar Lodge was spacious and clean. Kitchen is well equipped and really appreciated the added touch of clean oven glove, teatowel, scourer and cloth left for us
Katherine
Thank you for a great stay at Cedar lodge. The lodge was clean and very comfortable. It is in a quiet area in the park at the end of a cul de sac which was great for the children to play. The hot tub is a great feature and it felt very private due to the location of the lodge. Good sized bedrooms and a very comfortable lounge and dining area. Only slight niggle, is that the bar which holds the shower in the main bathroom is broken at the bottom and comes out when changing height of the shower. It could do with getting fixed so it doesnt come out and potentially hurt someone. I would recommend this lodge to anyone looking to stay at Whitecross bay. Access to the pool at Troutbeck was a great bonus.
The accommodation was very good. Aside from some minor maintenance issues like broken freezer handle, broken freezer drawers small drip from bath tap, the property is very well maintained. Facilities such a dishwasher, excellent oven and full size fridgefreezer make the stay more relaxing and was very much appreciated. The hot tub was excellent and checked every morning by maintenance. The double bed was extremely comfortable and the singles were comfortable. The 3 steps at the front of the property were larger than expectedsuggested which made it difficult for our disabled guest however upon getting over that everything was easily accessible. It is very clear that a lot has been put into this property and it was very comfortable to stay in. I would recommend this to others however the cost for 3 days could be reviewed as it seems slightly overpriced.

Decking was freshly varnished with no warning our dog slipped and crashed into the furniture and our daughter slipped, smashing her face against the decking and spending most of her holiday with a fat lip and bruised forehead. We also felt as though we were then treading varnish through the property as the bottom of our feet felt tacky. The top step of the decking was loose and another trip hazard. The carpet divider between the door bedroom and it's en suite wasn't screwed down properly, meaning screws would pop up and the door wouldn't shut properly. The freezer needed deicing as a build up of ice was preventing the door from shutting properly, and the handle on the freezer was broken. We only saw the hot tub maintenance man once, early in our stay and by the end of the week the water level was so low, the water was so cloudy and there was a build up of grime meaning we were unable to use the hot tub for the last two days of our stay. We were also disappointed to find no hand soap, which is quite a basic thing we've always been left on other lodge holidays. In addition, Parkdean did very little to manage kids running riot late at night passed 11pm chasing eachother and dogs with sticks, screaming and swearing as they did so. A real shame as the lodge was otherwise very homely and has a lot of potential if looked after properly. White Cross Bay is a great location, with decent access to the lake, as well as nearby towns. Would be happy to be contacted regarding our issues with the property and can provide photographic evidence if required.
Beautiful lodge! The hot tub was spectacular! Would definitely book again. The place was throughly clean and had all the main necessities
Sukhvir
Great place to stay , very clean and modern and the location was absolutely amazing everything close by
Suzanne
Radiator in one of small bedrooms wasnt working and aerial wouldnt allow us to watch tv as no service. Other than that a lovely clean lodge and very comfortable
Lovely lodge and very well equipped, will definitely book again
Beautiful lodge , very clean and everything we needed . perfect location thankyou
The lodge was really nice and cosy, bedrooms were adequate size and comfortable. Kitchen and living space was really nice, enjoyed the fire in the living room which made the space cosy. Kitchen facilities were spot on, everthing we needed was available.
Tracey
Some mould in the ensuite and double bedroom beading around the ceiling. . Water dripping out of the fan above the toilet in ensuite. Kitchen taps loose. Otherwise Cedar lodge was lovely. Excellent hot tub which we all enjoyed. Club house and pool where excellent on site .
Fantastic stay in this beautiful lodge. Will definitely book again.
Excellent cabin had everythink you could need for a nice relaxing stay. .the cabin was spottless and very comfortable. We unfortunatly picked a week when the tree cutters were out in force so it was very noisey but other than that cannot complain about anythink with the cabin.great value for money. Ps.A knife sharpener would be a great addition to help with cooking.
This was our second visit to Cedar Lodge and the WiFi is now great last year it did not work at all. The lodge is in a great spot, quiet and peaceful. The ensuite bathroom has a smell which doesn't leave which could do with some attention. Everything else great .
Ceddar Lodge was the perfect lodge for us. It was situated in a culdesac on the park so that meant alot more privacy. The property had everything you needed from cutlery,plates,pans,bedding,towels. It felt cosy the moment you walked in.
Danielle
Really enjoyed our stay. The 3 bedrooms are of a good size and all the beds have toppers which mean they are super comfy. The en suite to the master was a bonus. The kitchenliving area is large enough to accommodate 6 people...just. All the items provided worked well and the hot tub was maintained daily. The site itself has a barrestaurantswimming pool and entertainment which was okay but wasn't well advised as to what the acts actually did and staff didn't seem to have a clue either. The kids clubs are not well advertised either and they need booking and paying for, which isn't clear. The only downside I found was that doing a private booking meant I couldn't prebook the activities on site which I would have liked to have done.
We had a great stay at the lodge. Great location if you want to go exploring or a nice park and lovely lodge to simply relax. Would certainly recommend and intend to re book in a year or two for another stay. I left some clothes at the lodge but the aftercare in posting them on was a really nice touch. If we were to highlight anything for future improvement it would be renewall of the mattress. But certainly clean, cosy and everything you need is there.

Samantha
This place an absolute dream, and perfect in every way except it could use like a fire stick an its own Internet in the property other than that it was a great relaxing stay! ! Ps I think I may have left something how do I get it back thank you
We had a very enjoyable stay on the whole and have rebooked as the spot is great and the lodge has pretty much everything needed for a comfortable stay. The one real problem which did cause me stress was the fact that the lodge lists that it has wifi and this was absolutely not the case! As a result, I missed two important meetings which had been scheduled because of the WiFi listing In the info emailed it clearly states that there is Wifi, saying that you can log into the White Water Bay site, this was not the case and we did visit reception to check. We were concerned too thst there was no Welcome pack on arrival and therefore no practicsl instructions regarding how to leave bedding towels etc. Really hoping this will be sorted when we visit again. Otherwise, the lodge is a great place to relax and be based.
Great lodge, well stocked with every thing you would need, clean and tidy, great position in park, and to top it all of an excellent week of good weather. Nothing to do with the lodge which was fantastic, but the park itself looked a bit tired ,the club house was a big let down with lack of staff, the bar running out of drinks and long queues at busy times. A bit of entertainment in the clubhouse wouldnt have gone amiss either.
Darren
This is a lovely, well equipped lodge. Its a cul de sac plot. So not lots of foot traffic. The lodge is lovely and spacious with all the essentials you will need. It is a good location to reach various parts of the Lake District. Its nicely decorated and was clean on arrival. We would happily stay here again. The site has black spots for the WiFi but to be expected and wasnt a problem for us. We didnt use the facilities on site but they seemed what you expect from a holiday park. The onsite shop is limited and open random hours, but there are local stores near by to get your essentials. The hot tub was an added bonus and checked daily by the maintenance person. Family of 2 adults 2 teenagers and 2 dogs had a lovely stay and would recommend as a comfortable stay to access the Lakes.
Cabin was large and very well equipped. Double bed mattress worn, large square of foam placed on top. Listing warns of patchy wifi, we had none for the week Site issue. Smart TV could do with retuning for more channels. Largely unusable Netflix etc. due to nonexistent wifi. No parasol. Strange smell of drains? Some noise from busy main A591road.
Elaine
Cedar Lodge exceeded our expectations! It was such a comfortable lodge with everything we needed. Just like home from home! It was one of the cleanest lodges we have ever stayed in. We will definitely be returning
Christina
Lodge is clean and incredibly well equipped. Beds were very comfortable and rooms were a good size. Hot tub was a super treat to. Only comments with a negative ish slant would be there is a stain on the main bedroom carpet which is noticeable as soon as you walk in the room, some of the hand rails on the decking are very loose, one of the pans is not suitable for an induction hob. And other than the lack of a welcome pack, to explain how some of the kitchen appliances worked etc. We had a lovely stay. Hot tub guy was super friendly and I would certainly recommend and return.
We enjoyed our stay at Cedar Lodge. the lodge was clean and comfortable. a washing machine would have been handy specially for gusts who stay more than a couple of days. the complimentary Wifi wasnt working. at night time the noise from the hot tub was too loud effecting our sleep. Additionally the duvet in master bedroom was too hot and there was no alternative and lighter option available to be used.
We were delighted to find the property completely refurbished. Everywhere was extremely clean and well equipped. The hot tub was really warm and a great addition. The property is in an excellent location on the park close to everything. Would definitely recommend. Will definitely stay again. Just so you know, the site restaurant was terrible, poor service, expensive and food arrived cold with half of it missing we only tried twice!
Claire
We really enjoyed our stay in the cedar Lodge. I was presently surprised at how clean the lodge was considering it is a pet friendly one. It had everything we needed and more in the kitchen. Plus tv's in all the bedrooms, which was great for the kids. The hottub was amazing and a good temperature, when compared to others I have used. Overall, a great place to stay and great location! 1010!!
Lindsay
This was our second stay in the lodge, nice new kitchen, flooring in living area and sofas. The lodge has everything you need. We use the lodge as a base and visit local places. Hot tub is a nice touch.
Great upgrade, was a pleasant surprise on arrival. We have stayed on 2 occasions now and hoping to return again. Great spot for children with play areafootball.

Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU

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 10 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.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 15 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 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.

Happy Mount Park - LA4 5AQ
about 22 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.
Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD
about 23 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...
