Description

Don’s Lodge is a welcoming retreat resting right next to Windermere Lake in the heart of Troutbeck Bridge, within the stunning Lake District National Park.

Ideal for friends and families, this quaint little property offers a slick single-storey layout and hosts several on-site facilities including a restaurant, pub and even a pool for when you fancy a dip!

Inside, you will be greeted by the spacious open-plan area, where you can unwind in the sitting room in front of the Smart TV and toasty electric fire after a day of exploration. The designated chef of the group can prepare delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, to be enjoyed at the dining table or outside on your private spot of decking when the sun is out. Alternatively, when the sun is rising on your day, enjoy your morning coffee whilst taking in the sunrise from the decking.

The property boasts two well-appointed bedrooms, each fitted with a Smart TV for your entertainment. The double bedroom benefits from an en-suite, complete with a walk-in shower, offering a private space to prepare for the day. The twin bedroom is equally as inviting, providing a flexible sleeping arrangement for younger guests or even friends sharing.

In the surrounding area of Windermere, you will find a wealth of attractions and activities to occupy your time. Starting a tranquil day walking in the beautiful Troutbeck Valley or enjoy visiting the bustling village of Bowness on Windermere with its many shops to explore through charming streets.

Seek adventure and embrace the thrill of adrenaline-pumping activities at Brockhole Visitor Centre, with its treetop zip world and treetop nets, cruising tours of Lake Windermere or dine at The Gaddum Restaurant then wander through the scenic gardens.

From here, make the short journey to Ambleside and Jenkin Crag Viewpoint and fill your camera roll with awe-inspiring panoramic views of the encompassing Lake District landscapes. Indulge in some retail therapy at Hayes Garden Centre, home to a wide range of exotic flora and fauna, shops and cafe too.

Whether you thirst for adventure, want to learn the local history or just simply want a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life then look no further than Don's Lodge.

We were truly impressed with Don's Lodge, the owner and cleaning team need to be congratulated on the attention to detail.

The Lodge was modern clean and cosy and had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We have had many stays in the Lakes over the years and this Lodge is in our top 3. This is a note for the owner, that the floors in both bathrooms was compromised and felt like it could give way when stepped on but there was no smell of any damp.
