  • "A beautiful lodge, very comfortable, very well equipped, lovely location."

    Will be visiting again!

  • "What a beautiful lodge."

    In my opinion, one of the best positioning on the site but suppose that's a personal preference to what your after. The small garden and the large decking area were perfect, even though we stayed in October we still manage to sit out and listen to the river flow. It had everything we required for our stay, and the personal welcome pack and dog treats were a lovely added touch. Everything was immaculate, could not fault a thing!! Myself, husband, daughter and dog all had a lovely stay and will be back again in the future! THANK YOU

    The lodge was ideal for us. It was clean and well equipped and comfortable. I would have liked a teapot and coffee caffitier type plunger for real coffee, but these were minor things. The location is superb for visiting the area and we loved the outlook from the lodge. We will definitely book again and recommend you to our friends and family.

  • "Nutkins Lodge was absolutely outstanding, it is genuinely one of the best lodges we have even had the pleasure of staying in."

    The owners have so much attention to detail and genuinely have you feel as if it were your own slice of heaven and it is spotlessly clean throughout. The welcome pack was such an amazing touch as well. As fellow Parkdean Owners we honestly think the owners of this Lodge should be so proud of what they offer and as far as value for money goes it is outstanding absolutely no hesitation in recommending with 5 Stars and we will absolutely be back.

  • "Beautiful lodge."

    Spotlessly clean. Everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Credit has to go to whoever cleans this lodge as it was spotless. This lodge has its own WiFi hub so we were able to stream TV with no problem at all. Loved Dotty to listen to the radio. Location is probably the best on the park next to the river. Very peaceful park. Just how we like it. Sitting on the decking in the evening was lovely as it caught the evening sun. Our only regret was we didn't book for two weeks. We will definately return.

    From its prime location to the comfortable, super clean interior. It has everything you need provided and the welcome pack was a lovely surprise. Even our dog was provided for with the treat jar and the doggy towel. We loved every minute of our stay and cannot wait to book again. Thank you Nutkins for allowing us to share your beautiful Lodge x

    Hello. Thank you so very much for this amazing review. We are very pleased you enjoyed your stay and also enjoyed the welcome pack. We have a team of squirrels who strive to ensure guests are comfortable and find a treat or two upon arrival after their journey. Here at Nutkins, we love our furry friends and try to cater for their holiday also so we are glad you liked the doggy towel and treat jar. We do agree that the lodge is indeed beautiful, thank you. Something we believe is aided by the location adjacent to water and the picturesque bridge making it a sheer delight. We look forward to seeing you in the future! Kind Regards, Nutkins family. x Property Owner

    (Positive) feedback… Front door needs some WD40 as it’s a little temperamental. Instructions for appliances would be helpful however we did eventually find the oven ones in the bottom drawer, would be better in the welcome folder. Might be an idea to warn about the steps for older guests? Please take these as super minor things, the overall presentation and welcome pack was fabulous, great to have included the items for a dog too, would happily book this lodge again.

    Hello. Thank you for your positive review and we welcome all feedback. Along with our maintenance team here at Nutkins, we personally assessed the front door and could not find a squirrel of a sound when opening and closing it but thank you for highlighting this as we will monitor it. Instructions for appliances are kept next to said appliances in the kitchen so we are pleased you located these. Regarding steps leading to the property, we have gone to great lengths to ensure these are shown clearly in pictures and mentioned in the description details. We have checked both desktop and mobile links and can see the access stated clearly. We are pleased you enjoyed the welcome pack and all the dog treats. We do strive to ensure 'all' guests are looked after and comfortable. We hope to see you again in the future, Kind Regards, Nutkins family. x Property Owner

  • "Lovely stay for a birthday treat."

    The lodge is as described with everything you need set in a beautiful location. Lovely welcome pack and treats for our pooch. We had a lovely time. Unfortunately it rained everyday apart from birthday but staying inside this lovely lodge journaling, reading and watching films was lovely. Only downside we got a little chilly at times and the onsite restaurant food was mediocre and not really value for money. However with lots of other lovely places to eat in Windermere it was no biggie. All in all would recommend this lodge to everyone. One of the best locations on the site by far.

    Hello. Thank you for your lovely review. We are pleased you enjoyed the opportunity to kick back and relax in the lodge and make the most of the smart tv viewing options. We totally agree that the location is indeed beautiful. We strive to ensure guests are comfortable during the Winter and early Spring months and find the Nest heating dial which is located and labeled in the kitchen, easy to use when you require that convenient boost of warmth. Coupled with the many throws provided, we hope you had a toasty time in the end. The Haybarn Inn on-site caters for a wide variety of palate and has a renewed varied menu. Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside are a short drive away for further culinary options so we are pleased you found a lovely place to eat. If we are fortunate to see you at Nutkins again in the future, we can not recommend the Mortal Man or Queens Head in Troutbeck enough. All of which we hope you found in the Welcome Pack Information. Thank you for visiting us in this amazing part of the country and we hope you had a squirrel of a time! Kind Regards, Nutkins family. x Property Owner

    Great location & such a stunning set up. Cleanliness & comfort were off the scales. My only 'tiny' concern was there was no hairdryer (or I couldn't find one) - which just suprised me as it literally had everything else you could possibly wish for. Love the place though & would return.

    Hello. Thank you for your positive review and for being our first guests of 2024. Yes, Comfort and Cleanliness are our top priority and we do strive to ensure anyone staying has everything they might need.

The property

Set within the wonderful Limefitt Park in the quaint, Cumbrian village of Troutbeck, at the heart of the magnificent Lake District National Park, lies the charming, two-bedroom holiday home of Nutkins Lodge.

This property boasts a thoughtful newly refurbished interior with a cute nature theme running throughout.

Featuring off-road parking, an enclosed decking with garden furniture that overlooks the tranquil waters of Troutbeck, this delightful property invites a family or group of four, and their well-behaved dog, for a refreshing, self-catered escape in Cumbria.

Walk down along a gravelled path towards your new home-from-home and be taken aback by the beauty of your rural setting.

Inside, you will be greeted by a well-appointed, open-plan living space, complete with a fully-equipped kitchen where the chosen chef can get to work rustling up a tasty, home-cooked meal, a dining area with ample seating, and a plush sitting area with two sofas and a sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV.

When sleep calls, a family bathroom or an en-suite shower room invite you to rejuvenate before you hunker down for a much-needed rest in either an inviting double or twin bedroom.

When you're ready, lace up your shoes and set out to explore what your local area has in store.

On foot, a brief walk will bring you to an on-site convenience store, where you can stock up on homely essentials, whilst the Haybarn Inn, a pub set within the holiday park, lies just a stone's throw from your new front door, serving up traditional, British grub when you fancy a break from cooking.

You'll also find leisure and laundry facilities within Limefitt Park to help make your stay that much more enjoyable.

For a day out, make sure you stop by the National Trust landmark of Townend, the scenic viewpoint of Orrest Head, as well as the stunning location of the Holehird Gardens, on your way into the nearby lakeside town of Windermere, where you can soak in scenic views of the eponymous Lake Windermere from Queen Adelaide's Hill, enjoy an afternoon interacting with exhibitions at The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, or even enjoy a journey along the waters onboard a cruise from the Windermere Jetty Museum.

Whatever you get up to during your next stay in the Lake District, do it from the base of Nutkins Lodge.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

The small Lakeland village of Troutbeck can be found between its more famous neighbours Windermere and Ambleside, close by the Kirkstone Pass. A mixture of houses, cottages and farms, the village is scattered along a narrow lane bordered by a drystone wall.

Close by, the bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are popular with visitors, providing a range of amenities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips, including the lakeside ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. The ‘Windermere Steamboat Museum’ displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst children will enjoy the ‘World of Beatrix Potter’ in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Within easy reach of destinations such as Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains, Troutbeck is ideally situated for exploring all that the region has to offer.
