"No instructions for cooker or other appliances provided."
Patio door very hard to operate, and curtains on patio windows did not close properly. Some blinds we were unable to open and close.The winter King sized duvet on a double bed was very uncomfortable for this time of year. Beautiful view and great hot tub. The site is very well maintained.
Thank you for your review of Skiddaw View. We sadly don't have instructions for the cooker/hob and washing machine as they are very easy to use. The patio door has a key and lever, again easy to use but it is a heavy door. The curtains are decorative because there is no one between the property and the hikers on Skiddaw (12 miles away) The blinds are very stiff as again they are rarely used due to not being overlooked. The winter quilt is used as a lodge can get cold in the night. The Hot Tub is a great asset and the views are spectacular. The site is very new and is maintained to a very good standard.

"Absolutely beautiful place to call home for a week with a stunning view and picturesque scenery."
Clean tidy and comfortable. And the hot tub was an added bonus after an adventurous day. We would highly recommend this place.

"We loved the location of the lodge - it is in a very private and quiet part of the site."
The hot tub was lovely and we enjoyed the wine and chocolates. The lodge itself is very comfortable and spacious for the two of us. There were a couple of minor things that would make the stay perfect. We needed a wooden spoon and some serving spoons while cooking. Also, a dustpan and brush and some cleaning products would be great. Instructions would be helpful, especially for where to put rubbish and recycling as there do not seem to be any communal bins on the site. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this lodge to friends and family. Thank you.
Thank you for your review. I have noted what was missing and made sure they are now available. There is now a bin site at Meadows (newly constructed) We don’t put cleaning products in as we don’t want anyone spending their holidays cleaning but we have put some in place now Property Owner

"This lodge had the best view of the site, straight across to the mountains in the distance with sheep and rabbits in the opposite field."
The hot tub was ready for our arrival which was a bonus. Communication with the owners was good for things that cropped up. No issues with parking. The lodge had a good level of items. Instructions for departure were clear from the owners.
Thank you for your review. I notice we didn’t receive the highest marks on cleanliness, comfort and facilities. I would be grateful to hear where we can improve our service for future guests Property Owner

We stayed for our ten year anniversary and it was so relaxing and idillic. The stunning flowers and champagne welcome package were an addition delightful to arrive to. The outstanding owners ensured they answered every query/ question without hesitation. Plus the relaxtion of the hot tub whilst taking in the breathtaking views, what more could you ask for!
Thank you for your review. Property Owner
