  • "Thank you for a great stay!"

    The cabin was immaculate, clean and really cosy in the cold, wet weather. I have never had such comfy bedding anywhere - five star sleeping experience! Also very much appreciated were the welcome treats both for us and our pup. We will definitely be back.

  • "Fabulous well appointed, comfortable & clean lodge in wonderful location."

    Lots of information provided & great walks direct from lodge, although an OS map would have been handy. Ulverston not far for food shop. Easy access to south lakes & coast. Just wish we had more time to enjoy.

  • "What a great find!"

    A lovely, comfortable and extremely clean lodge with all the space and equipment needed to ensure a wonderful stay in the Lakes. We would definitely recommend and will book to stay again. The outside space is lovely and it’s a good location for visiting other parts of the Lake District for exploring & hiking. 2 small points for us were the bed was slightly too firm (but you can’t please everyone on this) and the heating seemed to be restricted (but we had blankets for the colder nights). Thank you for a fantastic holiday. Clare & Si in Darley

  • "Great lodge, very spacious in all areas, everything you need in the kitchen, fridge freezer was a bonus as its self catering, great touch having a dishwasher and washing machine, if I had a criticism it would be the outdoor furniture, the seating is ok but nothing you can relax on."

  • "The Burrow is a superb lodge and a great base for exploring The Lake District."

    The lodge itself is in excellent condition, with lovely ensuite shower rooms in both bedrooms with great hot showers and comfy furniture throughout. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and pans etc and has everything you need for a great holiday. The location is lovely and peaceful and is a good base for exploring the southern part of The Lakes. We would highly recommend this lodge if you are planning a holiday in The Lakes!

    Nothing to fault.

  • "I never feel one really learns how improvements can be made if always awarded 5 stars, but it would be very unfair of me not to do so."

    What you have created at Wateredge Mill is something special, so well done for that. The detail and comfort of these lodges is excellent. Location, for us, was spot on, being just on the edge of the general busyness of the central lakes, yet everywhere within a short car journey. It was lovely to come back to the tranquility of the lodge each day. We spent the month of June here and it was everything we wanted, and needed. Thank you.

  • "This is an exceptionally beautiful lodge on the southern fringes on the National Park."

    Nestled only a few metres away from the gentle waters of the River Leven, its tranquil setting is a dream for anyone looking for a truly peaceful break. The interior of the lodge is outstanding. No expense has been spared to make it feel luxurious. Sarah, the owner, is a phenomenal host, friendly, welcoming and willing to do anything to make your stay memorable. With walks on your doorstep and the beauty of Hawkshead and Coniston only a short drive away, you are situated in an idyllic location. In every way this is a five star vacation home.

    If you want somewhere quiet & peaceful to stay then I would definitely recommend the Burrow & the other lodges on site. The word "lodge" massively undersells these beautiful & immaculately clean homes from home. Thanks for a fantastic break!

About the location

HAVERTHWAITE

Newby Bridge 3 miles; Lakeside 4 miles; Grange-Over-Sands 7 miles.

Haverthwaite is a small village and civil parish in the Furness region of Cumbria. It is within the Lake District National Park and is located six miles east of Ulverston, near the southern end of Windermere. The village gets part of its name from the Old Norse word thwaite which usually refers to a clearing or settlement in the forest. Close to the village is Newby Bridge which is at the southern tip of Lake Windermere which takes its name from the five arched stone bridge built in 1651 over the River Leven. The famous Furness Railway, one of Britain's oldest working standard gauge steam railways, runs between Haverthwaite and Newby Bridge. Visit the Lakeside Hotels and enjoy magnificent views across Windermere and the surrounding fells, or enjoy the Aquarium of the Lakes, where the naturally themed habitats, bring the history of the Lakes vividly to life.
