Location
If you're looking for a modern Lake District holiday home with lake access, this lodge-style accommodation makes the perfect base. White Cross Holiday Park is located on the eastern shores of Lake Windermere, close to Windermere village, and only a short drive from Ambleside.
Nearby Windermere is the perfect place to stock up the kitchen; Windermere Booths supermarket is just next to the train station, and offers the finest Lakeland produce along with all your everyday essentials. The village also has a selection of cafes, restaurants and traditional Lake District pubs.
Only a couple of miles down the road from Windermere is the bustling village of Bowness. It's well worth a visit for the atmosphere of Bowness Bay, where hire boats come and go and the famous Lake Windermere 'steamers' depart to Ambleside and Bowness. The World of Beatrix Potter attraction is found in Bowness, as well as the Royalty Cinema and Old Laundry Theatre - plenty for a rainy day. Windermere Golf Club is also located just outside Bowness village.
For exploring further afield, the A591 leads easily north to Ambleside, historic Grasmere and beyond. From Troutbeck Bridge, you can also drive the dramatic Kirkstone Pass, which takes in dramatic scenery on its winding way to Ullswater.

What guests are saying
The lodge itself was fine.
Comfy and clean. The location is fantastic. However, the wifi doesn't work and although the tv is smart you can't use the smart functions without Internet. If we knew this in advance we would have been more prepared with entertainment for the kids.
We have been coming here twice a year some times three in a year since 2022 and we work very hard even on our days of we are busy looking after our family members so when we found this lodge with the views it was are dream getterway we don't drive but that doesn't matter becouse we just want to either stay in to watch the TV or go down to the lake.
We hadn't had normal TV or Wi-Fi for seven days and its not exceptable especially the prices you are both charging its evident throughout the guest book and reviews that the owner and skykes cottages just want the money becouse nothing is being done about it We have booked again because my husband is 60 if it hasn't changed by then am not coming back this had been copied and pasted an going on to trust pilot
The property was spotless on arrival and we loved the location of the property.
There is bus stop outside the park, so you can get to Ambleside, Windermere, or further afield very easily. Great access to the lake, and the views were lovely from the picnic benches near the marina. We will certainly come back. The only thing to mention is the sofa in the lounge is uncomfortable. If the seats were repadded, this may resolve the problem. However, this did not spoil our holiday in any way. 5 out of 5 stars
