Sustainable Property
Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
The lodge was fully equipped with everything we needed, including a high chair for our youngest. Lots of space and storage which was brilliant for our three kids. Very clean on arrival and very child friendly. Great to have a parking spot right outside the lodge for unpacking the car. The owner introduced himself and was very friendly, checking everything was OK and if we had everything we needed. Also suggested some great local days out. The location is stunning with a lake on the site as well as close to some lovely areas. Really enjoyed our stay.

"The decking area outside needs a deep clean."
The build up of moss has made it extremely slippery- my husband actually fell over ( this was before any frost or ice). It is extremely dangerous. Please sort this out or somebody could be seriously injured. Other than this the lodge itself was clean and comfortable.

"Would have helped if we had known before our stay about the need to access the site with the key fob."
Reception didn’t tell us and we were stuck at the barrier with other cars behind us.
It would also help to have a small welcome pack to advise on where to put the rubbish bags when full, and where to find instruction manuals for equipment.
Really liked the property, and its suitability for dogs, and will happily recommend to anyone.
Thanks!

"The lodge is very spacious it has three generous sized bedrooms and found the beds comfortable and clean ."
The living and dining area is a very relaxing area after a day out at the lakes which we also found comfortable but was lacking some TLC . The windows had not been cleaned for some time with children's hand marks quite visible all over from previous occupants however the cleaners missed this i will never know. The outside was also in need of a good clean lots of cobwebs hanging from the lights, outside furniture had seen better days and could do with replacing. However apart from the things I've mentioned I would be happy to make a return visit .

"We have been coming to this site for the last 6-7 years and have stayed in many different lodges."
This lodge is beautifully laid out and extremely clean.
Perfect size for a family of 5-6. Nice big kitchen and lounge/dining area. The beds were the comfiest that I've ever experienced at this site. Soft but very supportive.
My only gripe would be that the decking needs a quick blast with a power washer as it was a bit slippery when it rained. But this is a small complaint and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
We would recommend

"We stayed at Parkers Place for a second time in March 2024, having stayed the previous year."
Again, we found the lodge to be very spacious and comfortable. We have been visiting this site for 15+ years and Parkers Place is one of the best lodges we've stayed in. I do feel though that the lodge needs a little TLC since our last visit. The patio area was extremely slippy. The bottle holder in the fridge had been removed (I assume broken at some point). A few of the kitchen drawers seem to fall off there runners if you pulled them out fully. The mattresses were a little too soft but this is a personal preference. These are all very minor things but could help to improve a stay at Parker's Place. The site is very quiet, safe and clean. I would definitely recommend the beauty salon and gym/pool. I would have no hesitation in booking again and plan to do so. Many thanks for letting us use your lovely lodge.

"Surprised our Grandad for his 90th birthday week, he was over the moon with the lodge and the location."
He was thrilled with his walk in wardrobe as he'd never seen one before!
Made some lovely memories over the week and he didn't want to leave!
The lodge is lovely, clean, spacious and everything you need for that home from home feel.
We met the owner whilst setting up for grandads 90th Birthday party (we asked in advance for permission just to be on the safe side) , mentioned a few issues with a couple of the lights that weren't working and he said someone would come and sort them, unfortunately it wasn't sorted during my grandads stay but it was nothing that spoilt his time in the lodge.
Would recommend this lodge to anyone looking for a nice little get away. The week was everything we wanted it to be and more! Thank you!

"It's a lovely lodge with absolutely everything you need."
The welcome gift was a really nice touch.
The site however is a really nice clean place with onside swimming pool and gym (charges do apply) there is also a restaurant onsite with fish and chips for £18 per person.
We took our 2 cocker spaniels with us and the site had nowhere to let them run and exercise which was disappointing for them.

"We had a really great time at Parker’s Place."
The lodge was itself was great, it was warm and comfortable. The welcoming gifts were lovely. It had everything we needed plus more.
It was a great base for touring the local areas and spending the day on site. The on site bar was very welcoming especially with our dog.
The only ‘faults’ we found were with the site itself and not of the lodge.

"The property at Parkers Place was everything we expected and more."
A Beautiful location that was well maintained, and made for a very comfortable stay. Parker’s Place is a new and well kept Lodge and was an experience that we would repeat in a heartbeat for a family holiday. We had an excellent stay and have already recommended it to our friends. Only issues we found was the electric fire did not work and the hoover was not the best, but to be honest that is being very picky as you would need to be to find fault with this beautiful lodge. Hope to see you again soon.
Thank you so much for your lovely review.Hope to see you again

Would benefit from clothes Airer and some information on local areas and shops etc.
Also information on the leisure centre as I thought we would get the discounted rate but as it was a private booking this was not the case so can turn out rather expensive for a family.

"We generally enjoyed our stay."
Lodge is nice but not very clean. Dog hair covered the carpet. We had taken several videos and ended up not wearing any socks or not placing anything on the carpet. The owner did send the cleaner back. She vacuumed the living room only but it was not a vacuum for pet hair and made zero difference. We also were unable to connect to the internet for the entire stay. We were told that we were connected - yes we agree that the tv was connected but not any of our personal tech. Again video to evidence we were using the correct passcodes but unable to connect. Sykes does not accept video evidence?? Sykes pretty much indifferent as the issue was allegedly between the owner for whom we had no contact information and us.
The owner was away for a few days and on return did leave a complimentary gift which was nice but honestly we would have preferred clean carpets - as dog hair was on the sofa, cushions, and bed linen. I think obviously when changing the beds the quilts are placed on the floor?? My guess. Internet access (bar the tv) would have been nice.

"It would be great to have a portable / table fan at the premises for the hot summer days."
. we had to go out and buy a fan that just becomes an added something to carry back home. The property is quite set back from the lake and we thought we would have access or be at least in viewing distance which was not the case. Other than that the property was extremely well turned out and very comfortable..

"Lodge as it is brand new on this site."
The lodge will sleep six but was booked for just the two of us. Everything is brand new within the lodge. The first night we arrived late due to horrid traffic conditions on the trip from Essex. As we arrived late we decided to have a meal at the bar attached to reception after quickly unloading the car. I ordered Fish and chips and i must say the meal was also fantastic best F&Cs i have tasted in a long while. Steve the owner dropped in Sunday night to check we had settled in all ok and told us some good places to visit locally. We also had some wine Beer and choco's left for us on arrival a lovely touch from the owners. Thank you Steve and Liz for allowing us to rent such a lovely lodge and enjoy our 5 night stay in the Lake district
