• "The only downside was road noise as this is near a busy roundabout"

  Thank you for your feedback, we are glad your enjoyed your stay. We have never had anyone bothered by traffic noise before including ourselves, the roundabout is 1 mile away with lots of trees and fields in between. Property Owner

• "Really lovely place, well looked after and maintained and in a great location."

  Only anomaly was the bed - it was described in the listing as a “king size bedroom” which we thought would have a king size bed within it. It didn’t - only a double. Slightly misleading in describing a room big enough for a king size bed but then to not include one in it?! Otherwise a perfect holiday cottage.

  Thanks for your feedback about the Lodge, we are glad you had a lovely stay. In relation to your comments about the bed, it is a king sized bed Property Owner

• "The lodge is lovely and clean and very well equipped."

  They also leave the essentials such as salt and pepper , fairy liquid, some tea and sugar which I think all owners should be told to leave in a holiday home . It is in an excellent location for visiting the southern parts of the Lake District especially the lovely Holker Hall and the very pretty village of Cartmel. It is lovely to sit outside and enjoy the peace and quiet and watch the wildlife. The Woodland Hotel is just two minutes walk away and serve evening meals. Unfortunately we had to leave early but we will certainly return in the future and will recommend to friends and family.

  Thank you for your lovely review, we’re sorry you had to leave early but we look forward to seeing you at Woodland Lodge in the future. Property Owner

• "Lovely place to rest and relax, and a great base to explore from."

  Spotlessly clean, bed was very comfortable and every little detail had been thought of. One little thing; you can’t open any of the windows at the lodge, the double doors at the front do open wide and let the air in, but the bedroom was quite warm overnight, although there is a fan provided. Definitely not a negative, just an observation! I would 100% recommend this place if you’re looking for a quiet place to sit back and relax!

  Thanks for your feedback. The windows do open in the bedroom and there should have been a key there. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we will check where it is for future guests. We are glad you had a lovely stay. Property Owner

  ..clean,comfortable and lovely peaceful base to return to each evening and sitting outside for our evening meal and drinks. We were very lucky with the weather every day was glorious but even if we'd not had the weather the Lodge is a great place to be to explore the south lakes and all they have to offer.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback, we’re glad you had such an enjoyable week at the Lodge and all the places to visit nearby. Property Owner

• "The property was as described, of the upmost cleanliness and with all the facilities you would require."

  The setting is magnificent. Sit back on the patio and watch the wildlife. You are encased in an ancient woodland, with nature surrounding you. Nice touch that the owner provides bird feeders and bird food, you just need to top them up and replenish and watch. It's location, location, location. So peaceful. If you want to relieve your stress and get away from the rigors of modern life, then this is exactly what the doctor would order!

  Thank you for such wonderful feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed Woodland Lodge, it really is a special place. Property Owner

• "Woodland Lodge rightly deserves it's perfect score."

  The owners clearly want you to enjoy your stay, and this shines through from the moment you unlatch the little gate to enter. We found the location to be very peaceful and my wife loved the woodland decor both inside and outside the property. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, the towels and linen provided were smart and fresh. I agree with the principle of a good housekeeping deposit, to ensure the accommodation maintains it's high standard. We hope to return later in the year.

  Thanks Paul for such positive feedback, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to you coming back to Woodland Lodge in the near future. Property Owner

  I worked in the travel industry my whole working life and always take a negative view from start to finish of the booking procedure through to information given, how accurate is it, property condition, back up services etc etc and have say with my mind set I found nothing whatsoever to find. The Lodge was spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, information provided by Sykes was spot on, EXCELLENT in all phases. To explain I was a Partner/Director and travelled extensively around GB, Europe, North America and much more and beyond. Now retired my intention is to explore, see, sample more of our own HOMELANDS.

• "A lovely cottage/lodge in peaceful location."

  Clean, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. (I've never slept so well in a "strange" bed ever, and I used to travel lots with work). The location is ideal for touring the southern lakes and the coast with plenty of lovely walks in the area. I use the Walking World App but there are several in the info pack (pink sheets). Also very handy for the 2 minute through to The Woodland Hotel for a drink or to eat. We would definitely stay here again.......although I would like better weather next time.

  We were out of the country straight after this stay and decided to stay off our phones for the duration of it. What else can I say apart from what a stunning property you have. The location is tremendous along with the uniqueness of the property. The furnishing of the place was second to none, especially the fantastic bed and shower! The place felt so airy and spacious it truly exceeded our expectations (which were high anyway!) Thank you so much again for allowing us to stay in your gorgeous holiday home. You have really ignited our passion for the lake district and we will definitely be back. The location is also fantastic with everything we need in easy driving distance but also giving us that isolation we were so desperate for. Thank you! Zack & Katie.

  The only thing to note is that there is a water limit for hot water a day so if you like to shower late just be mindful of this. Overall a great stay for me and my partner, thank you!

• "The Woodland Lodge was presented exactly as the the images showed."

  When does that happen? It was in immaculate condition and beautiful throughout. The attention to detail by our hosts were second to none and the facilities provided were above and beyond our expectations. The location of the lodge was in a quiet woodland area to the side of a main grand looking house. It was private and secluded, tucked away in a corner. During our 1 week stay we saw 1 or 2 couples in the area. Our hosts kindly allowed us to charge our electric car from their outside socket, though I could only get 2 volts (had to knock down the voltage to ensure I didn’t trip the lodge), it proves our hosts are happy to accommodate our wishes. Believe me, a lot of hosts wouldn’t allow this out of fear and the unknown of EV energy consumption (as an FYI, less than running a hot tub for a week or a Power Shower). Sorry, I digress, but the accommodation of our EV charging is worth noting as this was a big factor in our search for accommodation in the area. So even though it wasn’t “officially” listed as EV friendly, after asking during our initial enquiry, our hosts certainly were accommodating and I thank them for this. Look at me, I’m still digressing! Let me wrap up by saying our Woodland lodge stay has to be one of the best holidays we’ve had in this country for a very long time. It felt homely, modern and traditional. This is truly a “gem” to find and we will be recommending it to friends and family who choose to stay in the Lake District.

  We have just realised we can respond to your feedback ! Thank you very much for such a positive review, we're glad the car charging worked out well. Property Owner

  The standard and cleanliness of this lodge is outstanding. The decor is very light and modern, the bed is the most comfiest we have ever slept in, there’s a recliner sofa and a rocking chair, we were surrounded by home comforts. The kitchen is very well equipped, I took my own cleaning equipment (just in case!) but the place was spotless and had a cupboard full of stuff supplied for our use. The bathroom is gorgeous with plenty of hot water. The outside area is spacious with a table and chairs and a massive umbrella. The surrounding area is woodland and very peaceful. A walk into Grange on Sands is down a lovely track, about 2 miles, and has lovely views of Morecambe bay. Cartmell is also close, it’s a beautiful village with the racecourse in the centre, well worth a visit. We used the Lakeside and Haverthwaite railway (Steam train) with a boat ride to Ambleside included. Fell Foot Park was also another highlight. We also visited Grasmire and Keswick. All in all we had a lovely visit to the Lake District, knowing that our lovely welcoming Lodge was waiting for our return from a busy day out. We would recommend Woodland Lodge 100%.

  However, this cottage was everything we could have hoped for. Well equipped, immaculately clean, a lovely situation in the middle of the forest, and near enough to a small hotel if we wanted a bit of company. Because this was so nice, it has encouraged me to look again at Sykes cottages. Thank you to your company and to the owners of the cottage.
