    “Overall the site was very good.”

    Good food in the restaurant and the site is in a beautiful area with the lake close by. The lodge was not as clean as it could have been, the en suite shower was dirty and had bits and hair in it and the 2 single beds were well past their best with toppers on to cover sunken mattresses. My adult son was not impressed! However this didn't spoil our first trip to the Lake District and we had glorious weather. Hopefully, we will return but not to that lodge.

The property

Resting on the ever-popular White Cross Bay Holiday Park near the iconic Lake town of Windermere, Cumbria is Wansfell Lodge.

This wonderful, dog-friendly lodge benefits from fabulous on-site facilities including an indoor pool, spa bath, bar and restaurant, adventure playground and amusement arcade as well as two well-appointed bedrooms; perfect for families looking to explore the Lake District National Park.

Be welcomed by a homely open-plan living space where you unwind on plush sofas in the sitting area, whip up tasty meals in the fully-equipped kitchen and dine together while planning your itinerary for the rest of the trip.

If the sun is shining, step outside to the wrap-around decking to delight in evening drinks or an alfresco affair.

When the sky darkens over the park, wash off the day’s adventures in the shower room ahead of catching your rest in the twin or king-size bedroom.

If you can tear yourself away from the fabulous on-site facilities, head into the heart of Windermere where you can enjoy a variety of watersports on the town’s iconic lake; try your hand at kayaking, paddle boarding or even just admire the breath-taking views on a boat tour.

Children will be in their element as the town also houses The World of Beatrix Potter with exhibits about the writer and animatronics of the beloved characters; continue the literary theme at the National Trust site of Hill Top which was once Beatrix Potter’s home or head north to Grasmere to explore the museum dedicated to the lake poet Wordsworth.

The national park is also brimming with a myriad of walks and trails suitable for a range of abilities; head for Stock Ghyll Force to marvel at the impressive 70-foot waterfall, amble through Holehird Gardens to admire the array of beautiful flora or ascend to Orrest Head Viewpoint for unique panoramas across Cumbria.

Adventure awaits at Wansfell Lodge.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
