Eden Lodge

We stayed here with a group of 22 friends, including a toddler, and two dogs for 3 nights. It was ideal for our stay and we had everything we could need. The kitchen has everything you need and ample facilities to cater for the large party. Rooms were comfortable and clean with many rooms with great views. Our main reason for booking was the slightly more secluded apartment which was fantastic for the pregnant parents and their toddler but still close enough to feel part of the party. The grounds are well kept and access to the beach is very easy. The support we received was great as well when we called looking for a few items. Couldnt recommend this property enough!

We had a fantastic weekend at Eden Lodge celebrating a 60th birthday. All of the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean & very well presented. There was ample living space and the outside area was the same with the hottub & sauna being a nice treat. The BBQ was a good size to feed a large group. The kitchen was well equipped but the only negative was that there wasn't enough trays that fit in the ovens. Alot of them supplied were too big. The surrounding area has nice walks and a beach was very close. Would recommend & would book again.

An impressive home, with ample space, located in the beautiful Lake District. The host is very accommodating and communication is easy. I highly recommend this home and our group will definitely return.

At first glance on arrival I was impressed with the property and the amount of rooms bathrooms and thought our week with our whole family will be an enjoyable one. I have been to many properties and had large family gatherings and never had to write a poor review but I feel I need to let other potential guests know what they are paying for as it is incredibly expensive. Firstly the garden was not enclosed as stated and our small dogs could get out, we tried to barricade the area so they were able to enjoy the garden but this did not work and when one escaped and we were trying to find her we came across the owner who was rude and told me they should be on a lead at all times, even in the garden. I think it is important to notify future guests that the owner spends 3 days a week near the property and regularly turns up being rude and intrusive. There are cameras everywhere which makes you have feel that you are being watched constantly. The other properties are very close together which is misleading on the website. The animals are all very lovely however the area is rat infested and the young children were mortified when they went to pet a goat and it was covered in blood from fighting the other animals. There is a laundry room which we were told we could use and every time someone went in there the owner turned up so clearly watching on the cameras being rude and saying we should have bought more clothes with us, in our defence we only had to use the washing facilities for swimwear as the hot tub was a swamp and made everything smell horrendous. Speaking of the hot tub on our return from a day out which the kids were all excited for the hot tub we came back to a note on the hot tub saying it was being cleaned and could not be used, yes it desperately needed a clean however it would have been nice if this was done for our arrival instead of during our stay. I would not recommend staying here unless you love being watched, would like a pet rat, enjoy being spoken to rudely and made to feel like you are encroaching on someones property and not wanted there. It is a shame because it could be a lovely place to get together with family, if only the owner actually wanted you there and the site wasnt misleading.

Fabulous property, ideal for large families. A few teething problems, with hot water & hot tub but having the caretaker on site was an absolute godsend, Fabrio sorted any issues we raised immediately. Would recommend this property for those that need to cater for elderly parents and less able members of your family. The games room and large picnic barbecue area was perfect. We will be coming back soon, so much to explore in the area and a great base to do it from. Perfect place thank you for opportunity to rent Eden lodge

Had a lovely relaxing stay with family and 3 well behaved dogs to celebrate our sons 30th birthday. Very spacious accommodation in beautiful surroundings. Would definitely stay there again.

Absolutely beautiful property in stunning grounds! We will be back! My only grievance is that the sauna didn't work properly, there was no lighting that worked outside and some of the showers had no hot water. Aside from that, just stunning! The animals now on the property make it even more special!

An amazing property for our parents Golden Wedding celebrations. There was something for everything in the house .. plenty of space, so we could escape one another if we wanted to! The farm, hot tub and games room were a lovely additions. We didnt used the sauna but it liked v clean. The kitchen was brilliant as was the caretaker that walked us through how everything worked. Couple of comments but didnt effect our enjoyability. 1. We rescued two birds from the fire place .. the chimney needs a wire cover. 2. The top floor there was a fly infestation and where it has not been used for a while the kettle had mould in it and the place smelt musty. The shower didnt work properly, needs attention. All other rooms were perfect and there were plenty of them for our group of 20 people. We had a fabulous time and would definitely use the property again.

We had a fabulous stay at Eden Lodge with our extended family. The house was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. The games room and hot tub were also a huge hit with everyone. We had an issue with the single room in the mezzanine as there was a strong smell of drains, we did alert the housekeeper and followed the advice but unfortunately it didnt resolve. However it wasnt significant enough to spoil our stay. We hope to be back in the future!

The games room was disappointing for 20 people , only a half length table tennis table . We would suggest a pool table and dart board for the future The cooking trays did not fit the ovens and there was only 6 teaspoons. Otherwise the facility was excellent

Eden lodge is a lovely holiday home. All rooms were clean, kitchen was well stocked. However, as we were a large group we found that most days we were experiencing cold showers .. even when it was early morning and no one had used the hot water. It seems to be the downstairs rooms that suffer . Those in upstairs rooms seemed to have no issues. We also noticed that the hot tub wasnt as clean as it should have been. As we all regularly use hot tubs on holidays we made sure to shower before going in the hot tub , but the water certainly was more merky than it should have been. Because of this we took note of what the maintenance man did on the Thursday and Friday before we left, and were abit disturbed to see that the water wasnt changed but just filled with more chemical. In other accommodation the water has always been drained and replaced with fresh water. If the owners are not aware of this then I suggest they take note as 20 people using a hot tub for a week really warrants a complete water change.

Fantastic accomodation for our family birthday celebration . Online information was spot on house was clean tidy kitchen well organised and equipped it had everything we needed . Bedrooms all spotless and clean Communal areas perfect for family to all be together . Hot tub was a fab extra .the only thing we would recommend is that extra outdoor lighting to be added at the barbecue area . We had amazing weather and would of loved to of stayed outside later but was far too dark . We had an amazing time and would defiantly recommend this house and we also will definitely be returning .

A lovely spacious house with lots of private rooms, and a fantastic big kitchen. Great Hot Tub, Sauna could do with an overall and a temperature gauge. There are a lot of artifacts around the house, which may not be to everyone's liking. However, we found the following issues The floors in some of the rooms had not been swept, bathroom floors had not been mopped, bedding had visible stains, which could not have been missed, showers on the ground floor were cold, some of the rooms did not have hand wash soap, the room at the top of the house only had a lamp on one side of the bed, and the dining tables were sticky even when wiped. I feel more attention to detail is required, as it's these things that count.

Lovely large house in extensive grounds. Bedrooms all ensuite really comfortable and clean. Helpfully numbered guessing previously a hotel which helped with allocating rooms and remembering who was where. Great to have the bedrooms on ground floor extention plus the flat on the top floor, which meant everyone had their own space and sound didn't carry.. The kitchen was well equipped no scissors that we could find, you need to bring all food including salt and pepper. Communal areas could be cleaner, dining room tables sticky and kitchen needed a clean too. Cobwebs to be expected in old house. Loads of comfortable room for being together, to eat in the conservatory dining room or relax in the 2 adjoining sitting rooms. The little bar and reception are cute. Outside areas great! A mini farm, sheep, pigs which were let out to eat the grass, so sweet and friendly sheep and peacocks too. The kids and adults in our family loved them! Lots of sitting areas outside plus the games room with a small table tennis which we used a lot, and hot tub and sauna. The hot tub got a bit dirty in spite of everyone showering pre use, I think with so many people it could do with a mid week clean. We did message Sykes but no response til after we were home. Lovely area with lots to do locally, we loved the Shack, just up the road driving or walking away from Ulverston, for ice cream and food including good vegan options overlooking the beach. The Bardsea llama and Alpaca experience was fab too. We had problems with our Barrow tesco delivery as they couldn't find us, recommend click and collect instead if you're using them. Fabulous family holiday. Everyone really enjoyed the house thank you.

We had a lovely stay and this house is great for a catch up with friends and family. Few negative points the freezer contained food cutlery was not clean 2 bedroom had LOTS of ladybugs inside single bedroom and the top floor some of the matras protectors were heavily stained.

Great house for our family getaway. Animals were a welcome surprise and kept the kids entertained pigs, sheep, peacocks and chickens in the garden! Hot tub, sauna and separate games room outside, with well proportioned living spaces inside. Close to several nice walks, the Buddhist temple and beach. Didn't really have to think about booking anything with the kids as they were happy playing in the house garden!

Fantastic break away for a 40th birthday gathering of friends and family. The house was exactly as described and spotless. Amenities were brilliant in the hot tub and the sauna. It's huge plenty of space to be together but also escape each other!

This property exceeded our expectations. The website pictures dont do it justice. Very large comfortable rooms, virtually an ensuite in every bedroom. Great big kitchen for that enabled us to cook for everyone. Lovely grounds with goats, pigs and sheep. Children and adults had an amazing time

We had a family break which included 3 sets of OAPs which the ground floor bedrooms accommodated perfectly. The whole ground floor was amazing and the hot tub, sauna and games room were all used and loved. The first floor bedrooms were all lovely and very comfortable. We put a young family in the apartment on the second floor and the only problem we encountered was here. We opened the velux windows to let some air in and were immediately inundated with hundreds of blue bottles. Maybe these just need checking before the next guests come in. Overall an amazing house which we hope to return too.

Great house! The rooms are all of a good size with en suite. Communal living areas were a really good size. Facilities were great hot tub, sauna, table tennis & a cute little farm. Kitchen was large & very well equipped with plenty of storage. We had several small children & did have you move some items as they would have been dangerous with little fingers around. There were a couple of things needing fixing but the maintenance staff were around & fixed them straight away. Overall, a brilliant weekend in a great house!

The rooms were lovely and clean, however the kitchen and dining areas were not as we would have expected. The refrigerators were not cleaned properly with dried milk in the vegetable containers. Table tops and floors were not really clean. We had a cleaner come in to clean all surfaces before we could use them. The owner found us a lady to help out in the kitchen and she made our holiday experience wonderful. Without Caroline, we would have spent most of our time filling and emptying dishwashers! Thank you for finding her. The owner promptly send us a plumber to fix a problem in one of the bathrooms. Bedroom number 1 gets only lukewarm water. I suggest this be looked into for future guests

We had a fabulous week at this house. As a group of 23 it had everything and more for us all to enjoy. Every room is big enough to accommodate a large group and the kitchen was stocked to the highest of standards. The hot tub, sauna and games room were very well utilised and enjoyed by us all. The surrounding area of Bardsea is picturesque with some stunning walks along the coast and in the hills. All in all we had a wonderful stay and we will definitely return.

The property was perfect we had 24 Adults staying at the property and never felt on top of each other. It was clean and comfortable. Extremely well equipped, warm and spacious. Would definitely book again.

Well equipt, spotlessly clean, well equipped, warm, comfortable, stylish and spacious. Perfect accomodation for a big party plenty of places for people to have their own space, ensuites in each room, plenty of room for everyone to sit, cook, relax and not get under each others feet. We all really enjoyed our stay!

Fabulous place to stay, we were a large family gathering. It was warm and cosy, well equipped, clean and comfortable, with everything we needed. 22 people in the party and there was plenty of space for us all. We all had a great weekend from the youngest 4 to the oldest 83 and we would definitely recommend the property and would certainly book again.

On of the Nicest place I've been with my family , beautiful spot, amazing landscape also house had excellent design . Shops wasn't so far from place we stay . Massive kitchen with perfect facility. Definitely I would recommend for group of family or friends.

Beautiful house, spotlessly clean really good equipped. Grounds are gorgeous Fantastic location. Nicola and Kevin are great and manage the house perfectly not that we had any issues on arrival or during our stay but they came and introduced themselves are are really lovely. Can't wait to book again

The cottage was lovely however one of the bedrooms was full of fruit flies and cob webs in the corners of the room showing it clearly hadnt been properly cleaned. Bar that the facilities were lovely in the kitchen and lounge areas.

We went for a family holiday 18 of us both adults, children and 1 infant, Monday Friday. It was one of our best holidays so relaxing and absolutely spotless clean. The kitchen had everything you would need and more

Just returned from a brilliant weekend at Eden Lodge. This accommodation is perfect for a large group. There was plenty of space in the house and the outside space was fantastic too. Beds were so comfortable but rooms can get very warm. Wifi connection isn't the best but wasn't a huge problem for us. Ulverston is a lovely town and about a 2 mile walk away. I would definitely go back again.

We had such a brilliant stay at Eden Lodge, the place has everything you need for the perfect weekend away. This exceeded my expectations hugely & we will 100 be returning next year!

There are a few radiator leaks and cold radiators. The bed in Room 5 needs changing. The light at the top of the stairs on right next to the window flashes all night. Could do with more mugs.There was only one extra key, not three. Otherwise it was great and we will be back again sometime

Facilities and cleanliness

Great stay. Everything was awesome and the house was very clean. One improvement would be the WiFi. Almost nonexistent in most of the property, especially when all guests are connected. Apart from that, its a great place.

The bedrooms were very comfortable. The lounge and dining room allowed my family to meet together in comfortable surroundings. The large garden was great for the children to play. The large kitchen made catering for a large number of people very easy.

Eden Lodge is located in a strategically great part of the Lakes with lots to do in the area whatever the weather. The Lodge itself is set in delightful grounds, with a large car park, external sauna and hot tub facilities which were incidentally were checked during our stay by their efficient and friendly staff. The games room was very popular with my grand children! The owners have gone to a lot of trouble to make sure that the facilities are ideal and can cope with large numbers of occupants. The kitchen is excellent and well provided with an extensive cooker range, large capacity fridges and two dish washers all of which worked very well for us. The bedrooms are well appointed, bright and airy with excellent en suite showers. I booked Eden Lodge as a surprise birthday present for my wife and had 14 adults, 4 children and a baby staying. It worked perfectly with plenty of space for all. My guests very much enjoyed their stay and I would return at the first opportunity.

Such a great venue for a big celebration. So relaxing and comfortable and plenty of space. We did several walks straight from the house, played games in the grounds and having the coast so close was lovely. Wed love to go again. Only minor concern for the group that there seemed no facilities for recycling being a big group we had plenty! Some advice on supporting this would have been helpful. Otherwise perfect!

Lovely venue for a large family gathering. Lovely weather! Smaller points are 1 window in the conservatory is broken and nearly impossible to shut note left about these things for cleaners The dishwashers are nearly impossible to work, they were not responding to buttons when we arrived and needed a factory reset, then with a large number of people it took most of the way through the week before people stopped opening them partway though as is OK for most dishwashers Not enough spoons for soup and dessert for each person, not enough forks for each person not enough teaspoons, not enough mixing bowls, not enough chopping boards, not enough cafetieres, the bath in room 8 would not empty without the plug being held up. The carpet behind the reception desk is stopping the door there being opened and that is damaging the carpet. The particulars say there is a lockable bike shed but when we rang we were told there is not. There was good support when we rang about a fault with the fire alarm. Please correct these small details No need to publish the little details re spoons etc.
