What guests are saying
In a lovely quiet position on the Park, Merewood has all the facilities and lots of thoughtful touches towards accommodating the dog with extra fluffy throw blankets and although we had taken our own there was a dog bowl, and a floor cover to stand it on etc.
Would love to revisit at some stage in the future.
A great little spot to have a base while visiting the lakes.
Ideal location, quiet and love how the bedroom window backs onto a woodland. Very clean and lots of room. Nice area to sit outside and parking right outside which was helpful. Great site to stay and good access to the lake on the site.
We were impressed with Merewood, it exceeded our expectations.
Bed’s comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed. Two bathrooms was also a bonus! We struggled a bit to find the lodge on the site but this was down to White Cross Bays lack of signage. We only had a short break here but would have happily stayed longer.
