"We have just returned from an absolutely wonderful stay at this really beautiful lodge."
Fantastic location, spotlessly clean and fully equipped with everything you need, a true home from home. The owner has thought of absolutely everything you need and more. Very much appreciated the little welcome pack of tea, coffee biscuits etc... as well. We loved it so much that we didn't want to leave and will definitely be returning next year for certain. We were also blessed with fantastic weather which made our holiday that bit more special. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this lodge to all our family and friends. Thank you. Mr and Mrs Furniss.

"What a beautiful lodge."
Spotlessly clean and equipped with everything you could need. Within walking distance of Bowness and everything this charming town has to offer. No need to use the car as could use boat or bus if needed. I would recommend Mountain Goat tours who will pick up ftom Fallbarrow Park. So much to do there so will need to come back. I did notice in previous reviews a few people mentioned the low corner sofa and I'd have to agree that it could prove awkward on the neck to watch tv. I would suggest perhaps the tv has a bracket that allows it to tilt forward. Besides that I couldn't fault a thing and had a lovely time.
Thank You for your review. We will take into consideration your comments for the TV. Much appreciated and hope you book with us again . Property Owner

"Beautiful lodge."
Loved the little welcome pack. Really thoughtful. We've Booked again it's so nice. Highly recommend. Apart from being a great lodge the location was superb. Handy to everywhere. Plus a new spar has been built right next door which is a plus.
Thank You for your positive review and for booking with us again! It is much appreciated. Thanks for highlighting the opening of the new Spar at the gates of Fallbarrow. It is a super addition for our guests ,with the in house butchers. lots of fresh local produce and groceries. Fresh coffee and takeaway meals. Property Owner

"Wow we were blown away by this stunning lodge ."
Everything about it inside and out was perfect . Classy, comfortable ,clean , toys , games , great location everything you could possibly want or need was included. It feels private with a hedge at front . The owners had left a welcome pack of tea coffee biscuits, a lovely touch which made us feel very welcome. Just a heads up that both fridge and freezer were turned off so we turned them on and key code hadn’t been scrambled when we arrived. We cannot wait to return ☺️
Thank you for booking with us at Broad Larch and leaving us with a great review. It's always good to hear that our guests have enjoyed their stay and hope you return. Property Owner

"This was the third year in a row at Broadlarch."
Always clean and tidy. I hope we left it in a good clean state for the cleaning crew. Park is very quiet as I think the neighbours respect each others privacy. No issues with the lodge, although I think a couple of deck chairs would make a difference to sitting out on the veranda. The chairs at the table, although they have seat pads, can get a bit uncomfortable. This is just a personal preference, not to detract from the lodge at all.
-
"The property was clean and well appointed, with comfortable beds."
The only slight disadvantage was the height of the television on the wall, which made for uncomfortable viewing. The lodge is well situated within the park and very handy for walking into the town.
-
"This was our second visit to the property and is very well presented and is a great place to base yourself in Boness on Windemere."
Certainly our intention to revisit in the future.

-
"Superb lodge in private location tastefully decorated and furnished."
Immaculately presented and clean. Thanks for the very generous welcome pack and the complimentary toiletries. My only issue is that the beds and corner sofa are very low so anyone 6’ tall or elderly may have difficulty getting out of them.
-
"The family have stayed in a large number of different lodges at Fallbarrow over the years, this is up there with one of the best in the park."
The living space is very homely, the kitchen is fully stocked with all items you would find at home. Spotless. Perfect for us travelling with a young family.
-
"2nd time staying at Broad larch Lodge and hopefully it will be an annual break away."
The lodge is in idea location, so close to everything Bowness has to offer. The Lodge is very clean, comfortable beds and sofas and well stocked with everything you might need. A nice little touch is the basket with coffees, hot chocolate etc. And a small milk in the fridge. Little toiletries in the bathrooms. Lots of games available, an Alexa speaker to play music and decent wifi. A perfect place to stay!
Thank you for your positive review,I t is always a pleasure to hear guests are returning to Broad Larch. Property Owner

"We loved how the lodge was in a quiet area of the park and liked the layout and overall appearance of the internal decoration."
We were suprised at how well equipped it was, having such items as toys for younger families and board games and books. The kitchen was very well equipped, and it was a nice touch to find milk in the fridge and the tray of goodies. Our only problem comfort wise, was having to look up at the tv and the corner settee was not very comfortable, but that could be as we are a bit older, younger guest may not have a problem with this. Thank you for a lovely stay.

"Amazing Stay!"
Broadlarch as like a home from home. Beautiful welcome tray with Tea, Coffee, Biscuits and a family favourite Lemon curd :-). Lounge area was extremely comfortable, spacious and little extras, like Sky sports which my husband was very happy with! Kitchen had everything you could need to cook if you didnt want to visit the many restaurants in Bowness. Bedrooms were also spacious and beautifully decorated with stylish bedding and cushions. Beds very comfy, however they are on the low side if you have difficulty with low furniture. Bathrooms well maintained and lovely fluffy towels. The entire Cabin was spotlessly clean. Close to all amenities and only 5-10 minutes walk to the centre of the town. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable stay in Bowness. Will definitely be back
Thank you for your fabulous review, It is much appreciated. and we look forward to your return to Broad Larch. Property Owner

"Absolutely lovely property, was exactly what we needed for our family holiday and it was in an amazing location - literally minutes walk to Bowness."
The park was very clean. The chalet was excellent - the WiFi was incredible (kept the children very happy), the fixtures were very modern and all the little touches just added to the overall excellent experience.

"We were lucky enough to stay at Broad Larch Lodge for a week, from 4th August 2023."
With children aged 11,15 & 17, we weren’t sure where to go for our Summer break. Broad Larch was the perfect base as it’s only a two minute walk in to the centre of Bowness. The lodge itself was spotless, homely and modern. The decking area is lovely and quite private too, due to hedging around the plot. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, so much so, the children have already said they’d love to go back to Broad Larch next Summer! Thank you from all of us x
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It is much appreciated. It's always a pleasure to hear guests have enjoyed their stay and hopefully will return in the future. Property Owner

Great lodge.

"The lodge was lovely and warm when we arrived and as it had been raining heavily all day it was most welcome."
The lodge is beautifully decorated, very well laid out and very spacious, including the bedrooms which were all beautifully presented. There was everything you could possibly need in the lodge and we really enjoyed our stay. We did find the corner sofa a little low for us, but appreciate that's just an age thing! The other sofa was very comfortable, and we certainly hope to visit again.
Thank You for your positive review. It is always a pleasure to welcome back previous guests, We hope to see you again at Broad Larch. Property Owner

I had a lovely stay, I have a mobility problem and the matting on the decking was brilliant for me, please could I have a contact for the supplier of this for mine at home
Hello John. Thank You for your positive review. The outdoor matting was purchased from Amazon. The seller was Casa Pura Outdoor UV resistant waterproof non slip mat. Property Owner

"Very enjoyable stay with an excellent welcome pack."
Nice lodge and very comfortable. There is no view from the lodge ( which we knew before from the description )but, it is a fantastic location. If I want to be extremely picky the cutlery were a little disappointing and would have liked a little more as only snacking at the lodge, eating out so therefore not using the dishwasher and outside lighting of the PARK was not very good bearing in mind it was December with an elderly father. Many thanks for the lodge and I am sure we will be returning.
-
"Perfect location, easy stroll into Bowness."
We have two young children 2&6 and it was perfect! Plenty room and space and there was even toys for the little one which was a lifesaver on a rainy day. Would definitely recommend and hoping to rebook soon.
-
"This is now our second time staying at Broad Larch lodge and our ninth year at Fallbarrow."
This is an exceptionally well kept well equipped lodge with lots of home comforts.The welcome pack with milk/wine etc. was very much appreciated.A great credit to the owners Thank you so much. The Riley family

"This is our second stay at the Lodge."
It is spacious, well equipped, very clean, a great position in the park, lovely decoration. In fact, it is the best Lodge we have stayed in over the years.

Thank you for a top class holiday experience.

"Great place in a a quiet spot in the park."
Very clean and comfortable and large enough for the whole family. We have already booked our holiday in the lodge for next summer.
-
"Very clean and tidy lodge."
Excellent position within the park and very near to the town centre. Very quiet. Personal opinion, but could do with firmer mattress and deck chairs. Would definitely return.
-
"Lovely cottage, really enjoyed our stay."
Incredibly well equipped with everything needed. Lovely touches such as ‘Herdy’ cups, selection of glasses etc Lodge is in a really nice position in the park, really clean and perfect for a week long stay. Prompt response about the sky tv code was really appreciated. Ongoing issues with wifi, as noted in others reviews (which there is little the owners can do about as it’s a park wide issue with the ongoing upgrade) which is the only reason I marked 4 for overall stay, however 4.75 would be more accurate overall as the only one bothered about the wifi was the teenager! Booked again for later in the year
Thank You for your positive review of Broad Larch. We have now installed Unlimited Internet Access through a Dongle.to overcome the problems Fallbarrow Park is experiencing at present.. Apologies this was not available in time for your teenager!. We much appreciate your return booking.. Property Owner
-
"Biggest problem at Fallbarrow is the wi-fi connection, although reception said it was going to be upgraded!"
even though the lodge was supposed to have its own dedicated wi-fi it still wouldn’t connect!! To be fair only there a short Time we didn’t ring support. This is the 7th time at fallbarrow, Lovely lodge great location, few minutes walk into Bowness our youngest grandson loved playing with the toys, especially dominoes. Maybe a box or cover to put the outside furniture cushions in before it rained & couldn’t sit on them! Would recommend Trattorias Italian restaurant , great food & Not too expensive . The willows bar on site is also good & our 2 grandsons Loved the games room. Would certainly return.
Thank You for your review of Broad Larch. Great to hear you enjoyed your stay in the lodge. We are hoping the problem with the WIFI upgrade on the Park will be resolved shortly. Property Owner

Yeah really enjoyed our stay lodge lovely and clean overall good mod cons and easy to use lodge in good spot for us on the level for walking [OAPs] 200yds into town Only thing spoiled our stay Wifi was down on the Park we all had our Tablets
-
"AMAZING set up for kids!"
Clean, well equipped and perfect location. Reasonable price too. Only draw back was that the wifi wasn’t working whilst we were there. Will definitely be back in the future!
-
"I wouldn't go again."
I was so looking forward this break not having a holiday for a couple of years due to covid. Myself and my kids have come back with severe neck pain due to the pillows that were in the bedroom. We changed them around as there were several in the bedrooms but they were all the same. I'm now off work trying to recover including the kids. This has put me going again as I paid nearly £900 for 3 nights stay which is alot of money and you expect the best.
Thank you for your review of Broad Larch. We are sorry to hear you found the pillows uncomfortable, we do find comfort to be a personal preference and having not received similar feedback previously, we were slightly taken aback by this. Had you made us aware during your stay, we may have been able to assist. Whilst we note you will not return to Broad Larch, we hope this does not affect you returning to another one of our properties. Property Owner

"Broad Larch can only be described as a most clean,comfortable and homely base to explore a beautiful county."
The location and setting of the lodge is perfect. A stones throw away from the lakeside and the village of Bowness. Thankyou to the owners who provided so many extras often not provided by other rentals. We appreciated that even though we came pre prepared for a lesser provision. Thankyou to the cleaners who clearly are the best of the best. We enjoyed a fantastic week
-
"We have stayed on Fallbarrow for many years, however, this year we booked with Sykes and found Broad Larch Lodge."
It is the best lodge we have ever stayed in. Cleaning was of the utmost high standard, the lodge itself is beautiful with every little thing catered for to the highest standard. The rooms are beautifully dressed with the smallest of detail right up to making your stay as comfortable as possible. We were able to check in earlier with the ok from the owners and we thank you very much for that. We had a wonderful break in this stunning lodge.. The owners should feel very proud of what they have achieved for the comfort of all guests. We will definitely be returning, and again Thank uou.

"An exceptional property in a lovely location - just a two minute walk to Lake Windermere and with other walks quite literally on your doorstep."
Quiet, secluded and with first class facilities - including Satellite TV with all sports channels accessible if you currently subscribe to NOW TV and/or BT Sports. Great having access to Netflix as well. Bedrooms are lovely, peaceful and immaculately maintained. Living room/kitchen has a wonderful homely feel. Tranquility personified. Would highly recommend and cannot wait to stay here again.
Thank You for booking with us and your great review. Hope you will return to Broad Larch in the future, or to our sister lodge, Broad Oak on Limefitt Park, Troutbeck, Windermere. Property Owner

"The lodge was perfect for us, 4 adults and our grandson who celebrated his 2nd birthday over the weekend."
Ideal for anybody travelling with a baby/toddler as there is a travel cot and high chair available also cutlery and plastic plates, very thoughtful of the homeowner to have these, also a toy box. This lodge also ideal for couples as well as lots of space and two bathrooms. Ideally located only 5 min walk into Bowness for all the facilities there. The lodge was spotless and a credit to the owners very tastefully renovated.
-
"The property is superb and has all the facilities you would need, nicely decorated and in a great position on the Park."
We had to cut short our stay due to a power failure in the area so did not benefit from the lodges facilities but I would return in the future.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your brief stay in the lodge. Unfortunately Storm Arwen hit many areas that weekend and caused lots of damage. We apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. We look forward to welcoming you bank in the future and hopefully there will be better weather Property Owner

-
"What a great cabin!"
We had a great week away - relaxing, everything on our doorstep, lots to do.
-
"Very nice lodge, clean and tidy and very well situated."
Only problem is you have gone greedy because of COVID 19. Your prices have gone from £2400 up to £4000 for next year which is disgraceful. Not much chance of you keeping repeat customers when you do things like that.
Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to hear of how much you enjoyed the lodge. It is a shame to see you have given such a low score considering how much you enjoyed your stay and everything Broad Larch had to offer. We are constantly reviewing our prices and we would be more than happy to discuss these with you. We do hope you will return in the future. Property Owner

"This was our first visit to the Lakes and we all enjoyed it very much."
lodge was beautiful, the best of many we have stayed in. Had all the equipment and home comforts that you could need and very tastefully decorated with good quality fittings.

"Fallbarrow Glade was just perfect for us."
The lodge itself is in an ideal position within Fallbarrow Park - we were not overlooked and it felt peaceful and private. The lodge itself was wonderful. It was decorated to a high standard and quality. Extremely clean throughout. Very well equipped and we really appreciated the welcome pack with fresh milk on arrival. At one point during the week there was four adults and two children and the lodge still felt large with plenty of space for all of us - we were lucky with the weather and enjoyed sitting in the sun on the lodge's terrace. A wonderful week in a fab lodge! What did you enjoy most about your stay? The lodge was a wonderful base. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? As a family with two boys aged 8 and 4 we really enjoyed Brockhole. Lots of fun activities.

"Firstly a huge thank you to the owners who are sharing their wonderful lodge with us."
On arrival we were amazed at the quality Fallbarrow Galde offered. The welcome pack was truly welcomed, thank you! Quality bedding, furnishings, decor and the technology offered, wow!!! We have stayed in a number of lodges across White Cross Bay and this particular weekend we had rented two lodges between our family for the first time at Fallbarrow, none of the others compare. The weather was beautiful and the lodge takes in full vantage, with sun from morning through until night. However even if it rained the comfort offered surpasses any other accommodation in a lodge we have experienced. This lodge is something quite special, in a way I was loathed to leave a review as I don't want others to find out about this magnificent lodge, however that would be purely selfish and the owners deserve to succeed, they have gone above and beyond and their pride in their lodge shines through. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Level of luxury offered What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Enjoying the lodge location - close to all facilities
Thank you for the fantastic review, Emma and we are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Fallbarrow Glade. There isn't much more we can add other than to agree how beautiful the lodge is! A beautiful place to stay. The owners take great pride in looking after this amazing lodge so that everyone who visits has a fabulous time. With many added little touches (and it's own dedicated wifi connection) this lodge is sure to become a firm favourite with everyone who stays. We are delighted you have already booked again for next year! Property Owner
