"Furniture in the lodge was a bit dated and tired."
Perfectly functional but looks ready for a bit of a refresh.

"Troutbeck 5 at Whitbarrow Holiday Village."
Will start with the positives; Great location, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen, everything you need for def catering, pool booking system works well, clean and tidy pool changing rooms, decent bar and restaurant, the view from the jacuzzi is amazing, close to Penrith and Keswick (10-15mins) with lots to see and do within a reasonable drive. Negatives; Cleanliness of the cottage was somewhat to be desired. Ashtray full of fag butts on the balcony, fag butt on the floor under the sofa, light fittings don’t look like they’ve been cleaned this year, upstairs carpets didn’t look like they had been vacuumed before we arrived, despite a 2 floored carpeted cottage there’s no hoover and despite asking for one housekeeping didn’t bring it over. The upside down figuration isn’t required, there’s no benefit as there aren’t any views from the windows. The wi-fi is hit and miss, wasn’t working at all for 24hrs of our stay and when it was available it kept dropping out and isn’t very strong. Needs a smart TV in this day and age. Cleanliness of the cottages seemed to be a common theme with other guests we spoke to. Overall though, we thought the village was ideal for our requirements and a great base for local activities. A new sofa and a bigger smart TV and it would be fantastic, but I guess there’s a reason that it’s cheaper than the neighbouring cottages. We will be back, but with a hoover!

"Thank you. We had a very nice holiday."

"We really enjoyed our stay in Troutbeck 5 at Whitbarrow Village."
Property was welcoming & very clean upon arrival and equipped with all we needed during our 1 week stay. Only disappointment I feel necessary to mention in my honest review is that the double bed was rather uncomfortable/ hard. However this would not put us off returning to the property in the future.

"Very clean and well furbished property."
Could find no faults with the property and the site was very clean as well

"A good location for a base to travel to places of interest each day, lovely accommodation with good cooking facilities."
Would recommend and plan to return in the future.

"Cottage was clean and well equipped, Upside down configuration in a housing estate was weird and unnecessary ."
Pillows need renewing and quilts too heavy for summer use.Outdoor and indoor facilities on site were good, especially for children, as was the pool. The restaurant/bar and food were good BUT the takeaway service was ridiculous, charging the same price for Fish and Chips £13.50, as in the restaurant, for a polystyrene box instead of a plate, served by a waitress instead of fetching it yourself. Our fault for not finding out first I suppose, but , that is a definite problem that will never be repeated.

"My family, friend and her 7yr old daughter really enjoyed our stay."
The cottage was a good size for all of us, giving us plenty of room not to be in each others way. We all loved the facilities at Whitbarrow Holiday Village. We will be back to visit the Lake District again. Thank you
