  • "The lodge was a good size and good kitchen and hot tub but the rest of the lodge is very dated."

    The tv is absolutely tiny in the living room and main bedroom and it is not a smart tv either. The WiFi is terrible and kept cutting out. The main bedroom bed is a small double and the mattress was comfortable but the pillows were not. The Hoover is not great and is also quite big and hard to move around and doesn’t really pick much up, could do with updating. The location itself was great right near Windermere and just a short walk down to the lakeside. The hot tub was lovely and it has nice big enclosed decking around the lodge. Overall had a nice break here and would come back but would try to find maybe a more up to date lodge. For £600 + for 5 nights I’d expect a little more for my money from the lodge.

    Thank you for your feedback which we value to ensure we can keep our lodge up to date. I’m afraid we have no control over the WiFi due to the area and we do mention this in the lodge details. We will be updating the television to a smart TV in October. The double bed in the main bedroom is a full size double, but not a king size.The pillows are checked regularly but I will update these if required and the same for the hoover. I’m glad that you enjoyed your stay overall. Property Owner

  • "We stay at White Cross Bay every year although we generally book different lodges i."

    E what is available at the time. We found this lodge very, very tired looking. The paintwork in the bedrooms was appalling and you could see the patches where someone had tried to tidy it up. Wallpaper was torn. The surface of the bedside cabinet in one room was literally peeling off. The soft furnishings were very old i.e the curtains very outdated and the scatter cushions were very so flat. The kitchen is not stocked up with essential basics as we have usually found in other lodges for example there isn't even a spatula. The hot tub has also seen much better days and the jets have lost a lot of power. Unfortunately this part of the site is very tightly packed with other lodges which meant we also spent the week listening to the couple in the lodge next door getting drunk in their hot tub for hours every evening which didn't make it very relaxing for us. We love white cross bay and will go back again as usual but not to this lodge I am afraid. You also have to pay £100 housekeeping deposit and we have never had to do that for any of the other lodges and it was a little ironic as it was the poorest quality one we have stayed in.

    We appreciate your feedback regarding your stay. We will ensure that the areas you mentioned are addressed to ensure the lodge is kept up to standard. Our kitchen is usually very well stocked with utensils so I will ensure this is checked during our maintenance period in October. The housekeeping deposit is in place to cover us for any damage that may be caused by guests and is quite a common practice amongst owners. Property Owner

  • "Don’t bring your pets here."

    It says ‘pet friendly’ but they will charge you if you so much as leave a muddy foot print. I thought it would be standard to clean in between customers but apparently they only deep clean at the beginning and end of the season which is pretty gross.

    Thank you for your feedback. Following your stay our cleaner found that the majority of the towels were covered in muddy dog prints and several items of bedding were also soiled with mud. We are a pet friendly lodge and do expect some wear and tear due to this, however the stained items could not be laundered satisfactorily and needed to be replaced at a cost of £150. The lodge is always thoroughly cleaned between guests . Property Owner

  • "Very disappointed on arrival, finding the fridge was dirty and had to be cleaned before food could be put away."

    Then floors were scruffy, beans, crumbs, crisps dirty floors, the cupboards were no better, sticky and dirty, again had to clean them before food could be put away, phoned owner, she said she would send a cleaner, at 19.38?.we had already started to clean, as we could not unpack and we needed to put food away. The windows were scruffy, you could not see out of them, owner said they had been cleaned 3 weeks previously ?. She asked for photos, which we sent. And we still waiting for a response from the owner! we had a long journey, and were hoping to relax . Not what you expect when arriving at what you expect to be a 4.2star rating. Totally unacceptable standards. We finally got in hot tub at 9 o’clock, only to find the water temperature was just warm, the temperature button did not work so could not be turned up or down. So had to come out as it was too cold to sit in. Phoned hot tub guy, told agin send a photo of the fault. Someone would be out the next morning. The guy who came out could not fix the fault. The next guy didn’t come out until Monday morning, this is day 4 of our supposedly hot tub holiday . To be told they are aware that there is an ongoing fault, and it will not be fixed until the winter?. This lodge should be deep cleaned and hot tub fixed, before they disappoint and totally spoil another family’s holiday. Also Sykes holiday cottages who advertise this log cabin, have duty to their customers. They also are aware of the ongoing problems, and choose to still advertise this cabin, knowing how many problems there are. They obviously do not take customer complaints seriously, but they both happy to take your hard earned money.

    Thank you for your feedback. Following your contacts with me and our hot tub maintenance team quite late on the night of your arrival we both responded very quickly to your concerns . I immediately offered you a re-clean of the lodge for the next day which you declined and the hot tub team attended the next morning. The windows are cleaned regularly but they can get dirty more quickly some months than others, depending on the Lake District weather. Our cleaner could have resolved this for you the following day as well as giving the lodge another clean for your peace of mind if you had accepted our offer. Regarding the hot tub, although there was an issue with one of the buttons on the hot tub the maintenance team did show you that the hot tub temperature was 38.5 C which is the recommended temperature. Having spoken to the team, they did report that you were using the hot tub over the first 3 days of your holiday so this supports the fact that the fault did not affect your enjoyment of the hot tub and there is no ongoing issue with the running of our hot tub.

  • "Very disappointing."

    Don’t stay here if you want cleanliness as there is no attention to detail here. Mouldy frying pan, dirty oven, dirty cupboards, casserole dishes with burnt on food, toaster full of crumbs, dirty bin, filthy door wells, crumbs and god knows what under sofa cushions. Photos were sent to the owner, she was not apologetic. She did however say that we should have given her the chance to send her cleaner round as it would have taken no more than thirty minutes to address these issues which says it all. This place needs nothing short of a deep clean! Which believe me as lodge owner myself would have taken half a day not half an hour. She refunded us a paltry £50! The photos were also sent to Sykes just wish I could attach them to this review

    I’m sorry you were disappointed with the lodge. As you can see from our reviews , guests comments are very positive regarding cleanliness and comfort. I did offer you the option of a re clean which you refused so the refund was offered in place of cleaning. Our lodge is deep cleaned at the start and end of season and thoroughly cleaned after every guest leaves. I take my guests’ comments very seriously and always do my best to ensure their satisfaction.

  • "The lodge was absolutely lovely and we found the beds really comfortable, there was lots of cooking utensils and necessities already in the lodge which was really useful."

    The location of the lodge was close to the amenities which was great for my elderly grandparent, we went in May and it was lovely and peaceful around the lodge. The hot tub was amazing! It was maintained regularly by the hot tub guys. The only downfall we had on our stay was for days we had a horrendous smell coming from the bedroom ensuite and we struggled to pinpoint where it was coming from until my husband pulled the plug out from the shower, it did appear the smell was coming from there and it just needed a really good clean. We also found one of the hobs on the cooker kept blowing out and we thought it could have been just abit of air in the system, we ensured all the hotplates were on correctly and still this one hob kept blowing on us. My dad then took the hot plate off the hob completely where it was just a little dirty underneath, once this was cleaned it worked again. Overall the stay was absolutely lovely and I would definitely stay here again we had a lovely little break away from normality :)

    Thank you for you review and I’m glad that overall you enjoyed your stay. I apologise that you had an issue with the shower. We did get this checked by a plumber after you left and we did in fact have a minor leak so it may have been that which caused the smell. I hope we can welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

  • "Booked for a 4 night stay at this property."

    Size of the property was excellent for the 5 of us and 1 dog. Property was well stocked with everything you need for a break away from home. The large decked area and hot tub was an excellent addition. Our only 1 problem was the cleanliness of the property and I would definitely be having words with my cleaner if they left my property like that. Given that we have just come through a pandemic where cleanliness was high on the agenda this property was definitely not up to scratch and while I don't mind cleaning, when I go on holiday I would like to actually be on holiday. We arrived on the Monday and I spent a good hour scrubbing the fronts of the kitchen cupboards which were filthy - dirt/grime/grease/dust, also washed the kitchen floor as it was dirty and covered with what I would think was black dog hair. Every room had cobwebs although these were quickly removed with the feather duster in the cupboard. Skirting boards in rooms thick with dust, again easy to brush away so why is the cleaner not doing this? Composite decking area outside was great but it would have been lovely to see the spindles/balustrade area in this same material as the wooden spindles are definitely needing some work, some of them were really loose and I had to contact owners to draw their attention to this. Owners got back to me really quickly to say the could organise repair but they didn't want to impose on our holiday. Given our children's ages I declined the quick repair but advised this would need rectified if a family attended with a toddler or small dog, owner recognised the safety concerns of this. All in all a good stay at White Cross Bay and we would definitely return. If this property was cleaned to a better standard I would not hesitate to book it again. Suggest owners perhaps speak to their cleaner to make sure they getting best value for money.

    The lodge was perfect and had everything there that we needed. Sofa and beds were very comfortable and the hot tub was an added bonus after a long walk. The only niggle we had was that it wasn’t as clean as I would’ve liked I spent a good hour going round wiping down window sills and surfaces as they had loads of cobwebs and dust and dog hairs on them. The toilet in the en-suite hadn’t been cleaned as it was covered in dust on the cistern. Even so I will definitely be back to White cross bay.

  • "Very disappointed to arrive at the lodge with a large full skip right beside our accommodation, along with an old sofa, fridge freezer & discarded garden furniture."

    Alerted the lodge owner & member of the park team on our first day & requested it to be removed ASAP. The owner was unaware of the rubbish next to their lodge and raised this with the park manager, who initially said it would be removed last Thursday, which although would've been our last full day at the lodge, still would've improved our view! This turned out to be false and the area which resembled the corner of a waste disposal site was indeed still there as we left the property for the last time on Friday. The Park Manager didn't seem too interested in the safety or hygene aspects of the whole situation, which was amazing given I saw young children in & around the items and other people using the skip to dump their own waste. Throughout the course of our stay, I gave the owner/site every opportunity to A) get the skip removed & area tidy or B) consider making a goodwill gesture to compensate for our poor experience. Neither it seems were prepared to do so. Its ironic that we're expected to make a deposit payment for any unexpected accidents when in reality, it should be the customer withholding payment until they actually arrive on site & check the status for themselves! In light of the poor (none!) management of this situation, I'll be thinking long & hard about staying on another park like this or your company, should this be able to happen and no accountability for it. Just to re-iterate, the owner has apologized but this doesn't feel anywhere near enough, especially what we paid for this family holiday.

  • "We had a lovely break at 22 Thirlmere."

    Starting with the positives; comfy beds, Tv in every room, hot tub, fairly well equipped kitchen suitable for self catering and great location for exploring. The could be better; lodge a little tired but still lovely. There were dusty corners and dining table, tops of toilets and dust webs but overall felt clean and tidy. A lot of lodges near by but didn’t feel overlooked particularly so not a major problem. However, biggest issue was wifi. We had read it was poor prior to going but assumed that was due to location but it’s more due to the fact the property didn’t have any wifi directly to it. The only access was the main site unsecured network which we failed to connect to most days. Internet is pretty much essential in todays world and the owners really should be investing and putting wifi in the lodge. For this reason we would not choose to stay again and it would be more accurate to say the property has no wifi currently as signal was weak and unreliable if we could get onto it at all. Very frustrating when could be remedied by some investment.

    Lodge was great, very comfortable for a large family and in a good quiet spot. On site restaurant was under stocked and under resourced which meant a 30 minute wait for drinks and well over an hour for food, however the ordering app would allow food orders to be placed when the food had run out… the over stretched staff would give varying explanations about deliveries and volume of orders but the situation didn’t improve over the stay. Shame as this took the shine off what was an otherwise brilliant time for us (2 adults, 4 children, 2 dogs)

    In the main it was very clean and well looked after. The owner contacted us mid stay to see if we wanted any fresh linen and towels, which was a thoughtful touch. The lodge was spacious, warm and the hot tub was a joy. Plus a clean well equipped kitchen , tv's in every bedroom and a large comfortable decking area.The site was wonderfully convenient for both Ambleside and Windermere. It was also ideally situated as a base for exploring the natural wonders of the Lake District. I personally wouldn't stay at White Cross Bay again however. Primarily due to the lodges being very near to one another which at times felt incredibly claustrophobic. A shame as the surrounding landscape, the abundance of trees and the proximity to the lake was beautiful. I must also take issue with a member of staff who very rudely shouted at and berated a number of people in various lodges, (my daughter and friends included )for using the hot tubs at 10.30 PM. Granted, there was a small party of people a few lodges down who were being a little noisy. However my daughter and friends were speaking quietly and being very considerate and felt both upset and humiliated to have been spoken to so rudely. I understand this man had a job to do, but there are ways of speaking to people, particularly paying customers who pay a substantial amount to stay at White Cross Bay. We double checked and couldn't find anything in the information and available literature to suggest people vacate the hot tubs by a certain time. A great pity as it marred an otherwise lovely evening. I have to say though, the guys who came every day to clean the hot tubs were incredibly friendly. So yes, lovely lodges, just too many of them !

Wifi did not properly work, signal was very weak and only one device can be connected at a time, although we did not manage to connect any. It was good for us because we were looking for total tech detox but if you are planning on doing some work... you may not be able to do so. On the downside, the hot tub has not privacy whatsoever, neighbours windows pointing directly at it and I would say that the cleaners could do a more thorough review of the lodge, particularly the kitchen and bedding.

The property

An immaculately presented, detached lodge located on a superbly maintained holiday park on the shores of Lake Windermere in the beautiful Lake District.

Well-appointed throughout to provide wonderful accommodation, this all-ground floor Windermere cottage has three bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, and there is also a private hot tub for guests to enjoy all year round.

The open plan living area exudes quality and style, with a well-equipped kitchen, a dining area and a sitting area with flat screen TV and French doors leading to the front decked area, complete with an indulgent bubbling hot tub.

The lake shore is only a few hundred yards and has a jetty where boats are moored.

There is plenty of space for picnics, lots of ducks to feed and the sunsets from this idyllic lakeside location are unspoilt and look out across the lake to the mountains beyond.

The lovely village of Troutbeck Bridge is home to a convenience store and the delightful Sun Inn, ideal for when you don’t fancy cooking.

Drive on to Windermere, where you can enjoy a wide variety of watersports on world-famous Lake Windermere, take in the scenery from the top of Queen Adelaide's Hill and Orrest Head, explore the popular World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, and feast on fresh seafood at Hooked.

Bowness-on-Windermere is where you'll find three Michelin-starred restaurants, perfect for the foodies in your group.

In addition to the Armitt Library and Museum Centre and the stunning Stock Ghyll Force, Ambleside also features a fascinating 2nd-century Fort, or you can venture further to Grasmere, where you can wander around the former home of the great poet, William Wordsworth.

Experience all of this, and then some, at 22 Thirlmere.
