Beautiful location
What a beautiful location for a lodge! The lodge itself was well presented and clean with everything you would need, but by far the best things are the views and the peace. You are only 15mins away from Keswick. We will definitely be back.

Warm, cozy, homely and comfortable. Everything we needed apart from a frying pan, or I just didn’t find one.

Loved our Christmas in the lodge
Thanks so much, we had a great stay. Lodge was nice and warm and had everything we needed. Really loved the Christmas tree and decorations. View and location was amazing. Quite a different Christmas from our usual hot Australian xmas.

Amazing views
The property has amazing views, we had a power cut the first night we were there tried both contacts couldn't get through, I did get a call back, i was told as it was a power cut there was nothing they could do. Which is understandable but i would of expected maybe a bit of compassion as it wasn't my fault either. The bedrooms could do with a bit of updating, windows were very dirty and the shower dripped all the time

Hi Jane, Thankyou for your review and feedback. I will need to look at options for the windows at the back as they seem to be getting splattered with dust whenever it rains, possibly from the foliage. Apologies, we have had a number of issues with the shower and replacing the the valve kit unfortunately didn't solve the problem as it was faulty, the whole unit has now been replaced which I believe has sorted this issue. I am somewhat surprised and saddened by the comments about the power cut, we rang you back within about 10 minutes of your call, were very apologetic and proceeded to find out what was happening straight away and when the power would be back on and gave you a time so you could plan your evening, I also offered a full refund in the event that the power cut was prolonged.

Out of season break
Good size lodge with all you need well anticipated Weather was typical out of season rain and breeze in the Lake District but still beautiful countryside to visit and then return to lodge for cosy evening. Our westie Lola loved the walks and a few seeds and peanuts brought a host to birds to the balcony.

Just what we needed! Amazing!
We loved the lodge and our stay. The lodge was homely, clean, welcoming and have a lovely feel about it. The view to the Lake was beautiful and being able to sit out in the evening on the deck was so relaxing. Ali and Chris were attentive and git back to us when needed. We thought we had no heating. But we did! We was looking at the wrong box to turn it on. Its the box on the nesting tables opposite the front door. The oven give up mid grilling bacon, we phoned Ali and Chris and they were so apologetic but didnt need to be, these things happen. They quickly got someone round to look at it and it needed to be replaced and they did this the next day which was brilliant as it was sunday. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need, so we just used the slow cooker and hob and it made difference to our stay. It just made it more of an adventure! The beds are comfy and the shower in the en-suite had better water pressure than mine at home! It was perfect for my two rescue dogs first ever holiday, we have created the most amazing memories ❤️ The lodge was perfect and Ali and Chris could not have done any more! Amazing hosts! We loved our stay ❤️

Lakeside lodge
Lodge was very clean and tidy, very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Very comfortable. Even though dogs are allowed (we do not have a dog) there was no evidence of previous pets - credit to the cleaning of the property. The property has good views of the lake and is in a very quiet location. Enjoyed watching the birds.

Exactly what was needed!
The lodge is in an absolutely beautiful location, has the most idyllic view, and is a very, short walk to the lake. It is very well equipped, so much so that we ate in every evening - both Co-op and Booths just minutes away in Keswick. My husband is immunosuppressed which meant that being able to eat in was an added bonus for us, as we didn't have to rely on eating at busy places. We wanted somewhere peaceful to relax and that's exactly what we got. For those who want a more energetic holiday, this is also an ideal place to stay, as there are many walks, kayaking on the lake as well as swimming. We are looking to book again next year

Lodge Watendlath
Lodge in lovely part of Lake District. Unfortuantly the lodge did not appear to have been cleaned adequately before our arrival. There were half used packets of frozen veg in the freezer.Bedding on the large bed was poor quality, very creased and very uninviting. The lodge was surrounded by overgrown foliage, some was cut down midweek, but not outside the bedroom windows, we could barely see the sky. Railing around the property was in a dangerous state. What a pity, this could be a lovely place.

Angela, I am very sorry that your stay has not been as you expected or indeed up to the standards we expect. I will address your points as follows Cleaning - there is no excuse for this and I will raise it with the cleaner, as can be seen from other reviews, we get very good feedback for the cleanliness so this is not typical of our standards. This wasn't raised at the time and if it had I would have got the cleaner to return. Freezer - We leave the freezer food available for other guests as we don't like throwing good food away and sometimes people appreciate having the odd bit in the freezer to use for a meal, our instructions make it clear that the freezer food is is for anyone to use. This is not an oversight and is an unfair criticism. Bedding - The bedding we have for the lodge is not poor quality, however it should not have been creased and I will look into this and check all the bedding next time I am at the lodge to make sure it has not been damaged over the summer holidays and replace what is necessary. Foliage - The lodge is sunken compared to the land behind it so even when the foliage is low, you do not have a clear view of the sky. The maintenance of the foliage is the responsibility of the lodge park and I will ask them about this, however, we have had a summer of rain and the foliage grows rapidly in these conditions. Railings - there is a sign on the railing that they are awaiting repair, this requires a clear window to undertake the repair when there are no guests and as such it is challenging to get this done in peak season.

Comfortable lodge
The lodge is well appointed and clean. It has a whirlpool bath which is fun, but only one shower as a consequence. It has a nice, but restricted view of the lake and surrounding hills. Very comfortable beds

Absolutely loved our stay - the location of the lodge is perfect - gorgeous views overlooking the lake from the decking. Very peaceful park, and great having direct access to the lake. The lodge itself was fantastic - everything you could need for a relaxing stay. Fantastic bbq set up on the decking too. Communication with Alison the owner has been great - extremely responsive and nothing was a problem. Thank you. We will be back!

We have had three pretty days at the Bassenthwaite Lake Side Lodge. Everything was successfully. We loved to sit outside on the terracce. It is such a quite, peacefull place. Two times we walked to the Pub "Sun in" in Bassenthwaite it is a halfe hour walk away.

Property was just as described, very clean and well laid out with some nice local touches and books/maps to help you plan your day. We loved the deck overlooking the lake and swam every day. Bassenthwaite is a lovely area, not too busy but within easy reach of everything. We had fabulous weather whilst there but can imagine the lodge being equally lovely at other times of the year.

This property is incredibly well equipped and lovely and clean. The location is absolutely stunning and so very close to the most beautiful lake in the whole of the Lake District. We parked up the car on the Friday and it didn’t move until we left on Monday. We walked, kayaked and paddle boarded … absolute bliss. We’re already booked for next year 😊

Great lodge
just as advertised on webpage. Very homey cabin/lodge by the lake. We were a little confused about where to find the key, but I think that was more us than Ali and Chris - who were very responsive. The countryside and the Lake(s) were just wonderful. My only suggestion is more toilet papers as we ran out day 3 into our 4 day stay and had to buy more. But this is not a criticism but more of a suggestion.

A lovely stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at this lovely property on the shores of Lake Bassenthwaite. The property is surprisingly spacious with a large kitchen / sitting room and 2 good size bedrooms and bathrooms. Although the property is surrounded by other lodges, it is not overlooked by others, and we enjoyed the beautiful views of the lake. It is conveniently located for walking in the Northern Lakes, Skiddaw can be climbed from the property and Keswick is just a 10 minute drive away for shopping. Overall a lovely stay and would certainly consider booking again.

Lovely and peaceful place to stay …. Lodge was vey homely and excellent position looking towards the lake . Plenty of walks from the lodge. One thing against the lodge was no blind in the kitchen window and half a blind in the living room patio doors which was strange as now the nights are getting darker not a good thing. Otherwise a lovely stay was had.

Hi Anita, Glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your feedback. I think you are referring to the lack of curtain/blind over the door out to the deck. On the back of your feedback we have bought a curtain, however we don't live near the lodge so haven't been able to fit this, but hope to have it in place later in the month. many thanks Ali

Fantastic Location And Place To Stay
The place was exactly as described in the listing and pictures. It was incredibly clean and had everything needed for the stay. Rooms are spacious and the bed probably the comfiest I've slept in away from home. Decor was nice and loved staring at the maps of the Lake District on the wall. Parking is large enough for 2 cars so more than big enough for people with large vehicles. I loved the views of the lake from the front offering a beautiful, quiet setting and has great access to the high Mountains and lakes of the area. Skiddaw was located just behind and was a great challenge for us with an 11 and 14 year olds. Keswick was close enough and was great to buy some outdoor clothing and other bits whilst Cockermouth was just as close offering the better valued supermarkets such as Aldi and Lidl. Will hopefully look to return next year to try more of the walks we had nowhere near enough time for.
