Willows Lodge

Lovely lodge in a perfect location, we had a great holiday.

The owner of the lodge and the lady who cleans it were really attentive when I needed to call them about a problem. The site staff were also very helpful.

Lovely lodge to stay in for the mid week.

Great base to tour the lakes. Lodge is very spacious for four adults and a dog. Not a great range of channels on tv but only used at night as we wre out mos of the day going around lake district. Just a 10 min drive to Windermere and Ambleside. Lodge has all good facilities eg: on suite, separate shower/bath toilet, microwave, cooker, dishwasher and air fryer its a home from home. Thoroughly enjoyed our week and would definately visit again. 10 out of 10.

Absolutely beautiful lodge.

Clean very well equipped. We have a fantastic stay. We will definitely be returning.

Lovely Lodge in a very convenient position on the park.

Spotlessly clean and with everything you could possibly need, it made for a great break away . We only wish we could have stayed for longer. Would definitely recommend and wouldn't hesitate to book again in the future.

We had a fabulous time at Willows Lodge.

Nothing to fault, everything to love. One of the most relaxing holidays we’ve had. The lodge was immaculate and everything was there what we needed. The stream running past the lodge was so lovely to listen to while relaxing on the decking. White Cross Bay is great, especially the marina within walking distance on the site, so beautiful. Great location to reach the nearby towns, bus stops near the entrance of the site. We will definitely book again. Thank you to the owners who made everything so easy for us.

A beautiful place to stay with everything you could need and very clean, the only thing for us was the double bed was a bit hard but nothing to moan about.

Willows lodge is so easy to get to once you know where it is and it’s near the main entertainment building which is very handy if it’s raining during your stay as it did for us. I would definitely book to come back again and would recommend for anyone wanting to stay in a beautiful place in the lakes thankyou so much for a wonderful weekend.

Lovely stay at willows lodge, everything you need for your stay, great location for visiting all the villages around the lakes.

Definitely would recommend and hope to be back. Nice welcome gift wine and cookies

We had a great short break at Willows Lodge - the lodge was lovely with everything we needed and much more.

The lodge was well presented, clean and fresh and in a brilliant handy location close to all facilities but still quiet and peaceful. We would definately book this lodge again

Overall a lovely stay at Willows Lodge, this is the third time staying here but this time we were slightly disappointed.

The main bathroom appeared to not have been cleaned thoroughly, toilet seat had stains on and also the bath had multiple hairs in. Lots of dog hairs on the welcoming mats inside the lodge and the dog water mat was not clean. Also the door was unlocked on arrival, this has not happened to us before so maybe an oversight. Lovely touch with the prosecco and biscuits, have not been put off from this experience.

We had a brilliant stay, lodge was very central so easy to access lots of hikes and lovely towns.

We have already looked at booking for next year!

Willow Lodge was a perfect getaway.

A lovely Lodge, well equipped, everything you needed. Very close to the facilities with ease of access.

Lovely property.

The only problem we had was the cupboards above the bed in the main bedroom were to low. When sat up in bed we banged our head a few times. Think this was a bad design.

This property was excellent and really comfortable only thing needs attention is the plumbing in the on suite making a lot off noise great location for exploring the lakes really enjoyed our stay

Lovely Holiday lodge, nice location.

Broken fridge and shower head leaking.

Horrific noise from on suite toilet kept us awake almost every night. Flashing light in living room so unable to use. Nowhere to stand milk wine or anything in fridge with shelf broken and missing

Stunning lodge - modern, clean & comfortable.

Excellent location of the site . All the home comforts you need . Perfect getaway .

Fantastic lodge.

Everything we wanted and more. Would highly recommend .

We had a wonderful 3 night/4 day stay at Willows Lodge situated on White Cross Bay in Windermere.

The lodge was beautifully clean and had everything we needed for our mini break. Our dog loved it too he had the freedom to roam on the enclosed decking area. The lodge was very comfortable with that home from home feel about it. We will definitely be returning here as the location was just perfect too. Thank you so very much

Absolutely fantastic everything about the lodge was great.

cant find any faults

Initially, we entering the lodge there was a pungent smell of dogs.

The unit needed hoovering because of items found on the floor in the main living space. Dog hairs were found in the both and the small hoover didn’t work because it hadn’t been emptied, that was full of hairs too. The lodge itself was situated in a good location however, the TV couldn’t be used as it works from a wifi signal and the bandwidth to that system was too small to stream live TV Overall, a relaxing location but I wouldn’t choose to go back there.

Wow what an amazing lodge very very clean a credit to you, all the amenaties close by and a great locatiion.

Outside space is great too with plenty chairs and a table. Everything we needed for a great stay. Thanks a bunch we will be back

Willow Lodge was a lovely, modern lodge.

On the whole it was very well catered for. There were a couple of niggles for me regarding the bedding…no pillow protectors or mattress protectors on the single beds. Also there was no toilet seat in the main bedroom en-suite, which I personally find extremely unhygienic. The Parkdean site, where the lodge is situated is nice, although the WiFi is appalling and the use of Parkdean facilities are limited. You do need to book in advance use of the pool (of which we didn’t know). The area is stunning though.

Inside Lodge was lovely and clean , It's a lovely lodge like home from home.

. BUT All the outdoor furniture and decking was covered in mud who had been there before must of had a dog it had rubbed it self around outdoor furniture , seats and table needed hosing off and the conifer tree next to were you park car needs some urget attention , Branches that had been cut off were hanging off tree over ya car thrown into the tree. The Lodge is in a nice place easy access to shop etc . Lovely area in deed . Lodge itself 10//10.

Lovely property!

The owners seem to have thought of everything needed to provide a welcoming stay, even down to a blanket box and a selection of board games for a cosy night in. Modern decor and clean.

Our 1st time staying in Willows Lodge and would definitely love to come back!

Beautiful, modern, pet friendly and clean and the suprise Prosecco and Cookies made our stay feel special! Very close to entertainment but we didn't hear a thing

Returned once again to this lovely Lodge ideally situated for all amenities Very modern and comfortable highly recommended.

Lovely modern lodge located opposite the main facilities and not far from the entrance so good access to bus stops.

Great location for Windermere and Ambleside. We were a party of 4 adults. You can get a map of the site from the main reception. The bar area is comfortable and dog friendly. Lodge is fairly well equipped and the addition of an air fryer was a welcome surprise. WiFi is the main site WiFi and good enough to stream Netflix on the Tv in the evening. However it can be unstable at times. Lodge has all the kitchen basics you need. It’s still new so hopefully things will get added, like oven gloves for example and a cafetière would be nice but that’s just me being picky. Beds and sofa’s are fairly comfortable and outdoor table and chairs are useful for warmer weather. Couldn’t work out the heating but owner was very helpful when called and soon sorted that. Really easy when you know how. There is some instructions in the Visitors Log Book which wasn’t an obvious place to look but we got there, no problem. Site is dog friendly with a nice walk down to lake and through the bit of Woodland. Onsite shop is a bit pricey but there’s a Spar at the garage about 400m up the main road towards Windermere if you need anything. Overall, this is a nice site and this lodge ticks all the boxes for my standards. Where I may have marked it down is only through personal preferences around the seating area layout compared to other lodges I’ve stayed in. The TV is quite high up on the wall and offset to the right so it makes it a bit uncomfortable to watch, especially with 3 adults squeezed onto the L shaped sofa. A big 3 seater would have worked better along with the additional chair. However, it would absolutely not put me off booking again and if I go back to White Cross Bay I’d want to book this lodge.

Beautiful lodge in a fantastic location for exploring Windermere and the Lake District.

Excellent park facilities and very dog friendly. The staff are lovely and very helpful. Just a short walk to the Lake from the Lodge which is just breathtaking. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend especially if you want to bring your dog.

Very nice and comfortable lodge and location.

I would recommend it and i may book it again. Will recommend the reviews to be read . Flashing light in the fridge , we found dirty baking trays which were mentioned in previous reviews. TV in small bedroom was not working. Cleaning needs to improve. We enjoyed our break in the lodge . DS

Very clean cosy and comfortable.

My brother and I enjoyed our stay at The Willows a real home from home.

Light flashing in fridge Ceiling light flickering En suite loo in bedroom sempt to be leaking from the out pipe None of this bothered us by the way,we had a great time and would willingly return.

We booked a dog friendly but didn’t bring the dog in the end but may do next time. Loved it Thankyou

Great property in fantastic location on site.

Great lodge with everything you need and despite an issue with the TV signal this was soon fixed through contact with the owner. Lodge is very new and great for a family of four. East parking as you do t have to go into site as it’s off the main resort car park which we felt was a real bonus as within easy reach of all on site facilities. Food on site was really good as well and priced as per other establishments in the area. Would highly recommend this lodge to anyone.

Stayed on this site many times and this was by far the most comfortable lodge.

Location and parking was ideal. The lodge had everything we needed. Owners need to change the Towels, freezer not working and intermittent flashing lounge spotlight requires looking at.

The property and the site it was based on was superb!

First house on your right as you enter the site opposite reception. So not far from the playgrounds , reception, pub and pool . The lodge and the site , was really dog Friendly ! The lodge it's self was clean , modern and spacious ! Lovely living area and just the right size, wooden flooring so really dog friendly ! Lots to do in close surrounding areas. Mostly outdoor activities and weather permitting locations nearby . However a perfect retreat non the less . In case of bad weather recommend visiting Brockhole which has a zip line activity, massive park ( no dogs allowed) , nice walks which are dog friendly. Indoor activities we went to the lakeside aquarium, quite small probably an hour / 90 minute visit but enjoyable especially with young ones. We didn't know about it but you can book a ferry ride or train ride joint tickets with the aquarium and make it a full morning or afternoon out . Dogs allowed on boat but not in the aqauriam. The owners were very quick to respond with any enquiries and extremely accommodating. Only feedback to the owners would be , there was a handheld hoover but not a standing hoover. On our stay it was terrible weather . The handheld hoover made cleaning a bit more back breaking and time consuming. Highly recommend, Hoping to return soon I'm spring or summer months . Thank you .
