A homely lodge in a tranquil setting with lake view
Set on the shores of the beautiful Bassenthwaite Lake in the Lake District National Park, this small tranquil park, nestled at the foot of the dramatic Skiddaw mountain range, is the perfect relaxing getaway. Enjoy the amazing lake and mountain views, the peaceful surroundings and the extensive birdlife from our homely and cosy lodge.
This spacious lodge offers guests a variety of home comforts, so expect to find comfy beds, modern bathrooms, a cosy fire, a really well-equipped kitchen with a wide range of kitchen equipment and basic larder items, a washer-dryer and dishwasher.
Bird seed is provided so you can enjoy the birdlife; blankets are too, so you can keep warm on a chilly evening while you star gaze from the deck. There are games, DVDS and an X-Box with a variety of games for those rainy evenings in the lodge.
Guests are welcome to bring kayaks, paddle boards and non-motorised boats to explore the clear lake waters or alternatively you can stick to a swim or paddle!
There are endless walks to enjoy in the area, ranging from flatter walks round the lake and through the woods to long days out high up on the fells, many of which are easily accessible from the lodge. There are maps and walking books to help you plan your day out.
There are a great variety of eating and drinking options in the local area, with a lovely old pub in Bassenthwaite serving good food and restaurant bistro at the Manor House, both close to the lodge.
Please note we cannot accept cats or large dogs that shed (due to owners allergies). Please contact the owner if unsure.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and an electric kettle.
