The location is frequently praised for being peaceful, within easy walking access to Keswick, and convenient for local walks, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.
Comfort is generally well-received with mentions of comfortable beds and furniture. However, some guests found the sofas low and uncomfortable, and one mentioned a bed being too soft.

A great place for the money, I went on my own so it was just right.My only gripe is the cutlery, cheap and uncomfortable to use, plus there were only 3 teaspoons, yet 38 glasses! Petty I know, but the rest was great with comfortable beds and furniture, super clean and a very short distance to the town centre.

Lovely well-equipped, clean, warm, cosy lodge. Peaceful but within easy walking access to keswick. Lovely little site with not too many lodges. Fall asleep to the sound of the little stream.
