This is an honest review of our stay: The lodge is lovely, overlooking onto the small lake, although lodges are quite close together on the lakeside so lack privacy.
Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was nice and big with useable space, plenty of crockery, utensils etc but only 5 mugs. I recommend plastic glasses be provided for outside drinking (I took my own) Living area nice, comfortable and spacious. Parking for 2 cars. Outdoor sitting area. Had to walk up to the lodge to collect keys then back down to open barrier to allow us to enter. Only one key and fob supplied, we had two cars so asked for an additional fob the following day and this was refused bluntly by the manager at reception (no explanation as to why) so this prevented us from asking anything again. Note - the restaurant is only open Wed-Sun (so check website for accurate information). Spiders! There were cobwebs and spiders inside the living area and on the outside of lodge above external doors/windows (we saw other lodges being cleaned with a brush to get rid of them). The veranda didnât look like it had been swept so one of our party swept it and brushed the cobwebs from the glass around the veranda inside and outside as the glass was dirty. Could I recommend you put an external light near steps as two of us tripped going up and down. Hot tub is not very private, it also didnât have a handle to open/close the lid so unfortunately it was only used three times in as it was too heavy/awkward (everywhere weâve been itâs used at least one a day). Hot tub hours 10:00-22:00 I would have an expected earlier start like 08:00. The hot tub was not maintained once while we were there for chlorine/safety levels (everywhere else weâve stayed itâs checked daily). TV remotes had batteries missing and in one bedroom the back of remote and one battery was found at the back of lower shelf in cabinet - obviously lack of attention to detail). Toilet paper was found under a bed (was there when we got there as my dog found it). Unfortunately because lack of external cleanliness (lack of attention to detail) non maintenance of hot tub, no external lighting and lack of privacy we wonât be returning to this lodge.

We had a lovely 9 night stay at Doormouse Lodge during the heatwave.
We found it to be well maintained, clean, comfortable with everything you need, there were plenty of little extras too. My daughters enjoyed playing the board games on the table outside on the warm evenings. The lodge is situated not too far from the complex and the Waters Edge Bar & Restaurant. There is a lovely outside seating area overlooking the lake and a small beach. We used the swimming pool/steam room twice. We found the staff to be very polite and helpful and the facilities were clean. There is no shop on site but Aldi and Booths are only a 5 minute drive away, there is also a Tesco nearby. The Red Luck Chinese takeaway, Sizzle-In and North Road Chippy in Carnforth were all good if you don't want to eat out or you don't want to cook and only 5 minute's away. The Smithy Inn do amazing, reasonably priced pub meals. The George Washington and Shovel Inn are also good with friendly service. All are very dog friendly. We visited Morcambe, Lancaster, Warton Crag, The Old Rectory, Leighton Moss Nature Reserve. All worth a visit. We also enjoyed a nice walk along the canal. The lodge is advertised with a barbecue but there wasn't one there, so we were a little disappointed. There is an iron and ironing board there, which was a nice surprise as they were not listed on the advertisement. We enjoyed our stay at Doormouse Lodge and would definitely return in the future. Thank you Justine for all your help.

Loved our stay at doormouse lodge.
Beautiful furnishings, comfy beds and just a lovely place. Weather was very hot so take an additional fan as the lodge can get very warm but we were in a heatwave. Lovely outside veranda secured with a gate which was great for our cocker spaniel who also absolutely loved his hols. Having access to my Netflix accounts via smart tv was an added bonus too. Maybe a slight improvement would be on Wi-Fi and parasol could be replaced as looking a bit tired with tears. Lovely site, excellent facilities with nice and friendly neighbours and people on site in general. Site is large and Has a lovely walk for the dog around the gorgeous lake and lodges , ideal on the evening to cool off. Only 5 mins drive to Carnforth which has an Aldi, Booths and Tesco for your self catering needs. Also plenty of takeaways such as âsizzle inâfor amazing kebabs. 20 mins to Morecambe for a lovely walk along the promenade and great views of the unique coastline with mountain views and only 35 mins drive to the beautiful bowness on Windermere and Ambleside.. I have stayed in many caravans and sites over last 6 years and this was one of my favourite all round holidays. Thank you for such a lovely stay we would definitely return

We absolutely loved our stay in this fantastically well equipped, super clean & comfortable lodge.
It was pure luxury throughout. The owner is terrific, a lovely lady, happy to help & sort any issues, just a phone call away. The lodge & gorgeous hot tub are south facing, so benefit from sunshine for the entire day. It is set on a quiet avenue away from the main park, offering both privacy and seclusion. The lake view is simply breathtaking, donât be fooled by the map view of a little pond, it is huge & gorgeous, glittering in the sunshine, we could never tire of it. There are an abundance of birds and wildlife. We were blessed with visits from otters, ducks, geese, moorhens, cormorants, terns & a delightful resident swan family with 3 cygnets who adopted us with hourly visits during our stay. â¤ï¸ South Lakeland is an excellent location to explore Lancashire, Cumbria & the Lakes. You can be on Windermere in just 25 minutes. We genuinely had to tear ourselves away from this beautiful lodge, it is by far the best we have ever stayed in & cannot wait to return.

The accommodation was exceptional.
In fact the pictures when I looked before booking are the main thing that made us book but when we arrived the site and the lodge were far better than we could have imagined. I thought that we may have to travel some distance to see the sights. I have never been to the lakes before and could not have wished to be in a better location. It was literally a half hour drive to Windermere and less than an hour to Ullswater and the views we encountered while getting to these places were absolutely stunning and phenomenal. The restaurant and bar on site were brilliant and the staff were so friendly at all times. Food was exceptional too. The supermarkets were only a couple of miles away and Tesco did deliver on site. I will definitely be coming back with my family in the very near future and have already recommended to other family and friends. Thankyou all for making our stay a very memorable one for all of the right reasons. Many thanks Karen Probert
