"Our 14th. rented lodge on this site, over a lot of years."
This now our favourite.
The "Goodie Bag" always appreciated, thank you. One negative - half a bread loaf and packet of bagels left in cupboard.
Owner response! Thank you for your kind review we are very happy that Westbrook has become your favourite lodge! Apologies for the food that had been left by the previous guest and not removed.

"Wow! 5* Highly recommended!"
Westbrook Lodge was immaculate, only two minutes from the lake and had everything you could possibly need for a self catering staycation. The welcome pack was a wonderful surprise thank you so much! The owners obviously take a great pride in providing a high quality experience for guests.
The site was lovely too and only a 5 to 10 minute walk into the centre of Bowness. A great little shop on site and The Willow Bar was fab for a drink on the way back after a nice day out. Staff were very friendly and service was good.
We would love to return to Westbrook Lodge again!
Owner response: thank you so much for your very kind review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back soon.

"We have gone to Westbrooke Lodge for the last 3yrs, but what concerned me this time was the state of the pillows in our bedroom, I never realised until I stripped the bed before leaving, they were all stained and not good pillows, if I had seen the state of them before we left I would have had to go out to shop for new ones, they didn't even have pillow protectors on?"
??
God knows what we could have picked up lying on those filthy pillows. I still cringe thinking about it.
We are so sorry to read this review, particularly from a returning guest. We have provided pillow protectors which have obviously gone missing and we were unaware of the condition of the pillows as we have been unable to visit the lodge this year. We have got a free day today and we will drive up this afternoon with new pillows and protectors. We realise that this doesn’t change your experience and we can only apologise sincerely, we pride ourselves on the condition and the cleanliness of the lodge.

"This property was immaculate."
Beautifully sited in the park. This is situated on a 5 star site and is very quiet and tranquil. 1 min from the lakes edge! We had a lovely welcome pack left for us of tea, coffee milk etc, which was highly appreciated. If I had any little thing to say about comfort it was that there were no extra pillows or blankets for the beds. The sofas are very low so be aware if you have problems getting up and down.
I have to say that I would not hesitate to go back again and recommend it to anyone. We had a wonderful time. The park is in walking distance from the Windermere cruise

"Westbrook Lodge is amazing."
It was easy to gain entry to the Parkdean site on arrival, with a barrier code from reception. There was ample parking for two vehicles with steps up to, and a gate on to the deck. The vestibule/utility area as you enter the lodge itself was ideal for storing coats, bags and shoes, and meant the lodge didn't feel cluttered with our "stuff". The kitchen area is gorgeous and very well equipped. There was more at the lodge than we were expecting e.g.; tea towels, oven gloves, tin foil, kitchen roll, washing up liquid, cloths, spare bin bags, hand wash etc. There were also a couple of dishwasher tablets and condiments (e.g.; salt, pepper, vinegar). It's hard to say whether these items are usually included or had been left by previous guests because the checklist we received with our booking confirmation said for us to pack most of those items - it was a nice surprise. We found everything easy to use and the instruction manual/quick start guide was easy to follow. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. We travelled as a couple, and so we didn't use bedroom’s 2 or 3, but they were all good sized rooms (two doubles, one twin) with storage and wall-mounted TV's. It's unusual to be able to say there were lots of coat hangers - but there really were. And having two bathrooms was a real treat (with the ensuite being bigger than our bathroom at home!). The Parkdean site itself was lovely and quiet with a short walk to the lake. There are plenty of rubbish bin and recycling points around the park. Bowness-on-Windermere itself is a 5-7 minute walk away and ideal for the shops, bars and restaurants. We really enjoyed seeing the town come alive in the evenings whilst enjoying a cocktail (perhaps two?) in the Fizzy Tarte, and there are a couple of fish & chip shops (amongst other takeaways and amenities) if you didn't want to eat out, but didn't fancy cooking either. We would definitely stay here again.

The lodge was excellent tastefully decorated cosy and high class we were greeted with a lovely goody bag and some Christmas decorations and a lovely tree, we did get hit with the heavy snow storm 2nd Dec and the power went off on the site so we were snowed in for a while but the lodge was so homely we just had to ride out the storm

"What a shame!"
Such a beautiful lodge in beautiful surroundings let down by its maitenance and upkeep. Dirty radiator and window ledges in main bedroom. The cooker was dirty and clearly had not had a proper clean for ages. The freezer was too iced up so was not fully useable. An aray of various tools were left on the floor in the boiler room. Overall the internal aspects fell very short of what we are used to finding in a Sykes property. Photographs of these problem areas are available if required. Whilst there we had two separate power cuts. There was no sign of a torch. For a cost of £800 + we would have expected a far better standard. We hope Sykes can look into this situation and get back to us with some satisfactory findings as we have another holiday booked with you in January. As advised above photographs are available.
Thank your for taking the time to provide this feedback. We are sorry to hear about all the issues you encountered at the property, unfortunately we weren't aware of any of the issues you had as we could have resolved them to make your stay more comfortable. Unfortunately, Storm Debi caused widespread disruption in the area including power cuts. We will highlight with the owner the lack of torch as this may have gone missing. We are glad that you enjoyed the location.

Very disappointed no welcome pack this time, I appreciate cost have increased but it would have been nice to be forewarned then we could have come prepared, otherwise as usual super lodge, our second time this year, see you February.
Owner response: Thank you for your feedback, I am sorry you had some minor problems during your stay this time, I have contacted maintenance and will ensure that they get resolved. Regarding the welcome pack, I am sorry you were disappointed but unfortunately the farm shop that we used to supply the items is no longer willing to deliver to Fallbarrow as we were the only lodge on the park who used them. However, I do intend to make up my own welcome pack which will be provided for your next visit in February.
