About this property

Lakeshore Lodge is a beautiful modern lodge in an enviable position at White Cross Bay. It is located in the Pony Meadow area which is a sought after setting near to the lake.

At the back of the lodge, three comfortable bedrooms can be found as well as a family bathroom. Step out from the living area, onto the outside decking area complete with seating and a hot tub so you can enjoy the stunning views in style.

    freezer unplugged so water everywhere needed to be cleaned. King size bed, the slats were broken/bits missing so collapses Not enough light on steps, elderly or children would struggle.

  • Jill

    We would definitely book again. In a previous review I read it mentioned about the comfort of the bed, but as someone with spinal and joint issues I can assure others that the bed was extremely comfortable and didn't cause me any issues.

    Would I want to stay here again ? Absolutely. Will I stay here again ? Sadly no Looking at previous reviews I feel I need to update you all. Location of White Cross Bay was perfect for us. Less than 5 minute drive to Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside. Keswick was just over half an hour. About an hour and 15 minutes to Gretna Green and Blackpool. As I said before perfect location. Location of the lodge on the site was also perfect , we had stayed in another lodge on the site in July and had taken our dog down to swim in the lake everyday and looked to book one of the lodges that had great views of the lake. After returning home after our stay in July we looked for a lodge down near the lake . Lakeshore Lodge looked fantastic with fantastic views of the lake and mountains so we paid £1600 for a week starting 1st of September. This was £700 more than we could have had the same lodge we stayed in July , also starting 1st of September . But the views and the hot tub you got with Lakeshore Lodge we felt were worth paying the extra for. On arrival we were pleasantly surprised that the Lodge looked to have completely new decking or it was jet washed cleaned really really well. It was so so clean and lovely to sit outside everyday on the decking looking at the wonderful views. Inside the Lodge? Previous reviews stated not a lot of storage for food , this is the case in most of lodges I have stayed in , so you manage somehow , it was fine putting food that didn’t need refrigerated on the BIG worktop. The lodge had plenty of coat hangers in both wardrobes in the double rooms. There was also hooks for coats near the front door. Hooks for wet towels in the bathroom. The sliding doors worked ok and were lovely to have them open , especially the week we had last week (glorious weather). Looks like the owners have listened to previous reviews and changed or added to make things better Yes it’s a bit tight in the bedrooms to get dressed but most lodges are like this. Just get dressed in bathrooms . Yes tight to park the car , but you get used to coming in and out ? Lodge was very clean , immaculate? No , some issues with cobwebs on the seats on patio but it only takes minutes to clean. Hot tub was serviced everyday and was perfect and easily accessible for my 80 year old father in law. Although building work was taking place on the 2 lodges next door with diggers , dumpers and drills making noise all day (unlucky on our part as the work needs to get done at some point) we really really enjoyed our stay. Was it worth the £1600 we paid ? No not for the week we stayed due to the building work but the owners can’t be responsible for work being done on other lodges. So after everything I have wrote above , the reason I wouldn’t stay again ? The mattress in the main bedroom was horrendous. My wife and I tossed and turned all night due to how uncomfortable the mattress was. I slept on the couch on 2 occasions and tried the bunk bed twice which was a lot better but little bit small for me. It was a shame as I know some people like soft , some like hard. Maybe try a thicker medium mattress to maybe suit all. Does anyone really have an old fashioned metal spring mattress these days ? Shame really because if the mattress was changed I would re book today to go again this year. I would re book for next year as everything we need and want in a lodge and location is here in the Lakeshore Lodge apart from a good nights sleep
