Stayed in Lodge 3 and views fantastic, Hot tub absolutely great but did have some issues with a few things, Pot holes in roads leading to Lodges although not great to look at they could cause car issues if arriving in dark as getting quite deep, no shelves in shower for shampoos etc and needing to keep bending down. WIFI great but absolutely no pho ne signal at all, and as a business woman this did cause problems and couldn't receive text messages either. Lovely lodge though and peaceful.

We also recommend a visit to Castle Douglas and the Treasure Hunt Treasure Trails. These treasure hunts are great fun for the whole family and are an entertaining way to explore a new town or village.

Ideal for families with younger children ,this family oriented farm park has lots of animals to meet and also offers Donkey Rides, Paddle Boats and Slides as well as Trampolines and Bouncy Castles. Kids can run around on the Soft Play Area while mum and dad relax in the Tea Room. There is also a Farm Shop onsite selling toys, gifts and fresh local produce including cakes and jams.

Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD

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...
