"We have stayed in various lodges on Limefitt Park but as family were joining us we needed a larger lodge and we were not disappointed."
There is everything you need and more! The cleaners should be praised as it was spotless. The beds were comfortable and we chose this lodge as there is a bath which we enjoy after a day's walking. It is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on the park with amazing views. The lodge is well maintained with lovely furnishings. We would highly recommend Hideaway Lodge.
Thank you for your lovely feedback

The Christmas tree was a lovely addition to the living room. The owners were kind enough to leave us with treats and a Christmas card which was a nice touch. Despite the torrential downpours this did not dampen our spirits. Limefitt is a lovely base to stay at any time of the year we have stayed in 8 different lodges here and this one would certainly be near the top of my list of recommendations. I would definitely come back to hideaway again!!
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you had a wonderful Christmas break.

There was a good selection of dvd’s to choose from, lots of cookware in the kitchen, some toys for the younger kids, an outside table and chairs, and a wrap around deck. The play park is excellent and the stream on site is great for paddling in. We didn’t try the pub on-site but we certainly were not disturbed by it on an evening. It was a lovely quiet site.
There were some dishwasher tablets left for us to use which was very helpful.

"We had a lovely time at hideaway lodge, limefitt park is our favourite and we try to get there at least once a year."
The beds are nice and comfy, lodge is warm and welcoming, views are fantastic.
The only critique is a minimal one and it is that the lodge could do with some updating on the electronics, I.e the Main TV, would be good if it was a smart one like other lodges we have stayed in on limefitt, just gives it a touch of luxury for cozy evenings relaxing and finding something to watch after a long walk. The fridge also got a tad too cold and froze our Pepsi’s, this could be an error on our part, maybe we had them too close to the back of the fridge.
As stated these are just minimal and did not effect our stay in any way and we absolutely loved it, We highly recommend the lodge and will definitely be booking again.

"On first arrival everything looked clean and tidy on the surface, but once we started using the facility's it was very different."
We found a dirty ready meal tin tray in the oven, the oven shelves were caked in grease and had to be cleaned before being used. On opening the dish washer we found dirty cutlery in the tray. The kitchen sink and plug hole where filthy. The vacuum cleaner was not working. At the end of taking a shower in the master bedroom you were standing ankle deep in water and on closer inspection the drain away was full of hair. Thick cobwebs around the coving in the master bedroom above the headboard and in the living room above the TV. Your cleaners need a good talking too, not only do the surfaces need cleaning but inside items as mentioned above also need cleaning. It's a shame that we have had to bring this to your attention as the lodge was very comfortable and in a fantastic location.
Thank you for bringing a few things to our attention. We are sorry to hear that the lodge did not meet your expectations on this occasion. As a result of your feedback we have changed the cleaner with immediate effect. We can only apologise and we would like to think that something similar will not happen again.

Also the other lodge had left a lovely welcome pack on arrival which even had treats for the dogs in.
Overall this lodge was nice and comfortable.

We were apprehensive at first as we were unsure about the location of the lodge. As soon as we arrived our worries were eased. The location couldn't be better. The views from the lodge are fantastic. We were able to walk our dog on the field close by and also enjoy a meal in the pub onsite while our dog was with us. This is a brilliant accommodation. Very spacious and everything you need.

location
Thank you for your feedback comments following your recent stay at Hideaway Lodge. We were sorry to hear on this occasion it did not quite meet your expectations, and our apologies that there was a cleaning issue when you arrived. It is most usual for this lodge although we have spoken to the cleaning company responsible and they have assured us it was an oversight. We assume that everything else was to a high standard? Due to the weather and the countryside location, sometimes the lodges are susceptible to flies and we advise to keep patio doors and windows closed if possible, although had you contacted us we would have helped and advised on how to resolve this for you. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. The lodges are all privately owned and can be viewed on our website before booking. Hideaway offers modern, spacious and very well-equipped accommodation ? complete with hot tub. It is a home from home with a few added extras. Thank you for letting us know you enjoyed the location, the views are indeed amazing! For further help or advice on a lodge our bookings team are always happy to chat. Perhaps we will welcome you again in the near future.

depends on interests i guess, plenty choice though
Thank you for your review, Will and we were pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at Hideaway Lodge. It sounds like the warm weather encouraged many insects out during your time in the Lakes which proves a bit tricky if you have the doors and windows open. We will pass on your comments about the football pitch to the park owners for their reference (Wembley Stadium it is not!). Hideaway is a very popular lodge with our guests with the added bonus of it's own private hot tub.

Thank you for your kind comments and letting us know you had an enjoyable stay. Lovely to hear the weather was on your side the fells look even more spectacular when the sun is shining. The lodge is a super choice for a relaxing break and in a good location for exploring the Lakes. Indeed Coniston is worth visiting as it is such a beautiful village at the foot of the fells, a real gem in the heart of the Lake District. And after a day out Hideaway Lodge is the perfect place to retreat to for rest and relaxation - the hot tub is very inviting!

"This was our 4th stay at Limefitt park and our first Lodge with a hot tub."
It was also our first booking through Lake District lodge holidays who I would highly recommend... Customer service was 5*
The hot tub was great after a long day of walking & the views from Hideaway lodge were gorgeous. Fair sized Lodge with all the amenities... Inc a tumble drier which came in handy as we did get very wet a couple of times.
Looking forward to returning next year!!

"We stayed here in June 2016 as a family get together, we were fortunate to have a lodge with a hot tub which was ideal after a long walk."
The only downside we found was that the lodges were so close together that you were overlooked on both sides by other lodges, although this didn't have too much of an impact we had to keep the bedrooms curtains closed the majority of times, this was fed back to the owner who, hopefully will take this on board and provide blinds. The site was clean and quiet but we weren't there in the school holidays so can imagine it may get very noisey during these times.... The Barn pub provided good food but check the opening times as we tried to visit twice but it was closed although the timetable stated it was open from midday.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying here. Thank you.

The relaxation of the area
What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?
Lovely walk to the Mortal Man pub.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review, John. We appreciate your comments and suggestions which have been passed back to the owners for their consideration ? thank you for these and we trust they did not impact too much on your stay. Admittedly the lodges are fairly close to each other although Limefitt Park is a small park and this is apparent by the peace and tranquillity enjoyed throughout the year. Hideaway has the added bonus of a lovely sized terrace with stunning views towards the fells and comes complete with a hot tub ? very relaxing. Although we have no control over the pub onsite we have passed your comments to the park management for their consideration. The mortal man is a super alternative and offers good food and in the summer months the beer garden is a wonderful place to soak up the beautiful scenery (acclaimed as being one of the best in the country!). We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at the lodge, it is a good choice for a family get together as it offers the space inside and out and comes fully equipped with all modern conveniences to have a hassle free holiday. Thank you for recommending this lodge to others. We look forward to you returning in the near future.

Food in haybarn pub could be much better.
Some friendly advice for hideaway owners the curtains at patio doors and windows giving off a lingering food smell, perhaps giving them a spin in washing machine may rid the smell. Everything else perfect.

Thank you your review and for giving Hideaway Lodge top marks, Paul. We assume from your ratings that you had a very enjoyable stay, and it is such a bonus having great weather. We will pass on your comments about the haybarn to the park management for their attention, although this is something outside of our control please accept our apologies. We will also inform the lodge owners about the curtains - thank you for letting us know. There are some delightful walks in the Lake District and many on the doorstep of Limefitt and we are very pleased to hear you enjoyed a few during your stay. The lodge is in a tranquil setting with the added bonus of a hot tub - perfect. Ideal for some downtime and the views from the lodge are magnificent.

"We stayed here a week ago to celebrate my wife's birthday with our family and a small cockapoo."
The lodge was tastefully furnished and quite comfortable. My daughters particularly liked the hot tub. It is in an ideal location only a few miles from Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere and the scenery from the lodge was breathtaking. We did try the on-site pub/club house which we couldn't recommend (just very basic pub food and limited choice of ales and wines), but there is a fantastic pub and micro brewery 'The Watermill' just a short distance away in Ing which I would highly recommend and is exceptionally dog friendly to the extent that if you haven't a dog, you feel you should rush straight out and get one. Service from the Lake District Lodge staff was excellent, including very helpful emails, SMS text messages and on-site advice. I felt that the staff at the site really couldn't do enough to help and make our stay really enjoyable. The lodge could have been a little cleaner and I provided feedback on this on the feedback questionnaire. If you asked me if I'd recommend the Lodge to my friends or stay here again, then the answer would be definitely yes.

Ferry from Bowness to Hawkshead, then over to Wray Castle. Then walk back along the far side of Lake Windermere before returning by ferry to Bowness.
Thank you very much for your comments and for taking the time to review your stay, David. We are pleased to hear you all had an enjoyable weekend of celebrations, and you filled it with some great days out. We sincerely apologise that the lodge was not cleaned to your satisfaction or to our high standards. We informed the contract housekeepers immediately after your initial comments and please be assured it will not happen again. Thank you for making us aware. The pub on site is provided by the park owners and we have passed your comments on for their consideration. On a positive note we are pleased you found the staff welcoming and helpful. The Watermill is a great pub, lots of ales to try! The Mortal Man is another excellent pub (dog friendly) and is very close to Limefitt Park, definitely worth a visit or two. Great to hear your daughter made good use of the hot tub, a favourite with many of our guests and a real bonus at the end of a long day walking. We look forward to you returning again soon and thank you for recommending us.

Thank you for your feedback. We were disappointed that you chose such a title for your review which is very misleading. We apologise that you encountered a few relatively minor issues which didn't impact significantly on the enjoyment of staying. We were pleased to put these right promptly once we were advised. It isn't always possible to check every last detail in a lodge before guests arrive and feedback during and immediately after a stay is very helpful to us. We appreciate you informing us. Hideaway is a very popular, spacious, modern lodge and a great place to relax and enjoy a stay in the Lake District (complete with it's own hot tub).

"Very enjoyable stay at the Hideaway Lodge."
Ample room for 6 adults and a little dog. Everywhere very clean, maybe a bit tired in places, for example a couple of the handles in the en-suite shower were missing, the temperature knob was missing in the main bathroom, the outside door had a few cracks in it - but nothing to deter from wonderful stay. Nice touch was the hot tub, especially after long walk! Would not hesitate to recommend the lodge and Lake District Lodge Holidays - impeccable service!
Had very nice meals, one at the Mortal Man - excellent service, good food. And two meals at the Haybarn on site - excellent service, good meals and the breakfast was very good.
We did have very noisy neighbours next door who insisted in loud noise till the early hours. I believe someone form the site asked them to be quiet, but again this did not affect our stay.
What did you enjoy most about your stay?
Hard to say, all of it really
What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?
Loved the whole setting, didnt get much chance to see much of the surrounding area, as most of our time we were at the Great North Swim.
Thank you for reviewing your stay at Hideaway Lodge coinciding with the big open water swimming event held annually on Windermere. We were pleased you enjoyed your time here and thank you for pointing out a couple of maintenance issues during your stay which have now been addressed. Delighted you enjoyed a meal at the nearby Mortal Man (a personal favourite of ours) and The Haybarn at Limefitt Park itself. The Hot Tub adds to the experience of staying at Hideaway Lodge and the water would have no doubt been considerably warmer than when you were swimming!

"This is by far the dirtiest accomodation any of the 6 people staying here have EVER stayed in."
We had to put all the crockery, cutlery and glasses into the dishwasher as they were all disgusting with dried on food on the plates and cutlery and the glasses were filthy. However, once they were clean we couldn't put anything back in the cupboards as they were even dirtier. There were food scraps in the cutlery drawer, the cupboards were dirty and one even looked as if there was mould growing in it.
After looking at the oven we decided not to cook any food in it or on it as it was that disgusting. There was caked in dirt and grease on all the cupboard handles, including the dishwasher handle and cooker door.
We found food remains under the bed in the ensuite bedroom, some of the curtain hooks in the lounge were broken so the curtains didn't hang or close properly. There was even dust and dirt in the door panels and skirting boards.
On arrival, we had to open the main bathroom window to try to get rid of the over powering smell of damp. There was ingrained dirt and food scraps in the creases and trim of the settee. The towels provided had bleach marks on them. There is a very strange mark in the bath which contributed to the overall feel that this property had not been cleaned in months and months.
We did look under the hot tub cover but after seeing some floating debris in the tub and given the disgusting state of the lodge no-one had any confidence that it was clean or hygenic so we did not use it.
I would advise that this lodge is not rented out until it has had a thorough deep clean, including treatment for mould and damp, as well as necessary general maintenance to get this property up to specifications.
As there was a large group of us staying at Limefitt Park in 3 different losges, we know that the state of this lodge is not indicitive of all lodges at the Park as the ones our friends had rented were lovely - clean and well maintained.
It is a real shame that we chose this one

"The lodge was lovely with lots of great facilities, and set in a beautiful and convenient location."
We tend to stay in lodge-type accommodation when on holiday and Hideaway was one of the nicest we've seen.
As a bonus the site facilities and bar (which are often poor due to having a captive audience) were very good. And we were delighted to find so many books and toys in the lodge.
However we were not happy with the level of cleanliness. There was so much hair and fluff on the carpet when we arrived that we felt we had to run the vacuum around ourselves before unpacking. This picked most of it up with ease, suggesting the cleaners had not even bothered to try.
Also, our children developed a skin infection after using the hot tub. This is not mere conjecture - we researched it and the symptoms match precisely, and it is apparently quite common in children using a badly maintained hot tub. Chlorine levels need to be checked and topped up *daily* to remain sanitary and this was obviously not done (no one looked at the tub the week we were there). We would urge you to rectify this immediately, otherwise other guests at the lodge may suffer, and may complain to you.

"Cabin could have been cleaner."
..fridge and kitchen cupboards need a clean out. Nowhere to hang wet towels. Quiet park. Dog field was good, adventure park good, pub friendly service and good value yummy food. Surly staff at reception of limefitt though, especially male Liverpudlian. Lovely location. Well stocked cabin although crockery needs thinning out as no room for food!

"Had a wonderful stay in this clean, well-equipped, perfectly positioned lodge."
Had everything we needed and hot-tub was a welcome addition. Local pub on site was good for food. Would have welcomed a couple of activities for kids as it was summer hols but there was plenty of stuff to do locally so it wasn't really an issue. Overall, loved it!

"Limefitt Park is situated in a beautiful valley with opportunity for adventure all around."
We stayed at Hideaway Lodge for a long weekend last year and didn't hesitate in re-booking when we knew we were attending a wedding close by.
The lodge is near the top of the park with a wonderful view of the hills from the living area. The onsite pub, The Haybarn is a must - very friendly people who rallied round with a smile when our party of eleven arrived for a meal without booking. It is just a couple of minutes walk from Hideaway.
I understand the Hideaway Lodge itself is about to get a spruce up. This is needed in a few small areas but overall we found it a very pleasant stay. There were five adults and two small dogs and we found there was plenty of room for all of us. The facilities are like a home from home with all the kitchen equipment you could wish for. Children and babies are well catered for with cots, highchairs and games galore. Both the en-suite and main bathroom have a good shower.
The question is would we stay again if we needed a three bedroom lodge? The answer is once all the sprucing up has been done - I would not hesitate!
What did you enjoy most about your stay?
The view from the living area

The Queens Head Hotel. Its within walking distance and the food, staff & atmosphere were great.
Thank you for reviewing your recent visit to Hideaway Lodge. Glad to hear you enjoyed your latest stay there. The lodge is regularly used by the owners and as part of the planned upgrade will also be the addition of a lovely outside hot tub.

"Limefitt is a perfect location it is quiet and private but only 5 minutes drive to Windermere."
The park,shop and bar are lovely and you are not far from 2 other lovely pubs that can be walked to safely from the site. The lodge is starting to show its age slightly and few things could be repaired/replaced. One of backs of the dining chairs was broken as well as both the DVD players either that or they were bit tricky to work? Also some of the crockery had chips etc but generally speaking a lovely well equipped lodge and the toys and walk in wardrobe a great feature. The electricity supply often tripped and had to be reset from the consumer unit outside the lodge this happened last year in same lodge so poss an issue just here as I have stayed in 3 other lodges and not had same problem? The pass to Low Wood is also an added bonus and I would recommend this.

"We recently stayed in Hideaway Lodge, which has three bedrooms and was very comfortable."
We couldn't have asked for anything more, there were two travel cots available, a high chair, toys, games and jigsaws. There is a large decking area with tables and chairs to sit at, the lodge is in a quiet location near the top of the park but you can walk to the play area, pub, shop etc. There is plenty to do, we loved the spa wich is included in the booking and Windemere is only 2 1/2 miles away.
I will be back with my family when I can arrange the time!
What did you enjoy most about your stay?
Peace and quiet.
