We had such a lovely stay! Christine and Andrew really know how to make you feel at home, with super comfy and spotless lodges. The Retreat was perfect, rain or shine - it didnt spoil a thing. Loved the laminated guides with local tips, very handy! The hot tub was a highlight and the decor felt boutique-like - really special. Cant wait to return, honestly. Its one of the best getaways weve had in ages!

We really enjoyed our stay at this lodge. Its spotlessly clean and super comfy, which made everything feel relaxing. The large deck was a highlight, with nice outdoor furniture and plenty of space for my hammock. The kitchen was well-stocked, perfect for cooking full meals and the dining area was great for meals and games. The bathrooms were modern and had good showers too. Wed definitely come back!

We stayed in this spacious lodge with a hot tub, which was lovely and very comfortable. The hot tubs design was a bit odd, maybe because we're getting older... We do prefer proper seats in our tubs, though!

We recently stayed at Avon Wood and honestly, it was such a lovely experience. The lodge was spotlessly clean and looked stunning, with views that really took our breath away. After a long day of hiking up the hills, relaxing in the hot tub was just perfect - we definitely made good use of it! The welcome pack on arrival was a nice touch, very thoughtful. This was our first trip to the Lake District and we loved it so much that weve already booked to come back in April. The location is quite remote, around ten minutes drive from the main spots, but thats exactly what we wanted-peace and quiet. Oh and at the bottom of the park, you can easily access the lake from a tiny slipway, which was adorable. Definitely bring your kayaks if you can, its worth it. The hosts were lovely too. We highly recommend Avon Wood!

We recently spent a long weekend at Rydall Retreat and honestly, it was fantastic. The location is simply stunning, with breathtaking views that made us feel so relaxed. The place itself was spotless and beautifully kept-definitely the cleanest place we've ever stayed, which is great for someone like me whos a bit OCD! The hot tub was a real highlight, super peaceful, private and perfect for unwinding. The only downside was the mattress-pretty firm and uncomfortable, which made sleeping tricky and left us with sore backs. If they could swap it for something softer, itd be absolute perfection. Despite that, were already planning to come back because everything else was just right. Weve already recommended it to friends and family. Thanks for a lovely stay-cant wait to return!

We stayed at this lodge recently and honestly, its stunning! The location is just breathtaking, surrounded by such a peaceful setting. The facilities were spot on, everything we needed was there and the welcome pint of milk was a lovely touch-perfect for that first cuppa after a long drive. Christine was really helpful beforeh and, making sure we knew what to pack and what to leave behind, which was a big help. The spa was a real treat, especially after a day of walking; slipping into it was perfect. The only downside is that you definitely need a car since there are no footpaths nearby. We did manage a quick walk around the site, but it was pretty short. Wed definitely return and recommend to others!

We had such a chilled-out break in this gorgeous lodge! It was super comfy and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The hot tub was a real highlight and those little treats in the fridge were a lovely surprise. Honestly, we can't think of a single negative - it was just a fantastic getaway and the weather was perfect too!

Overall, we had a lovely stay. The location was spot on for exploring the lakes and the welcome pack with prosecco and chocolates was such a nice surprise! The only thing wed suggest is offering mattress toppers since the bed was a bit firm for us.

We had a really relaxing stay here with stunning views over the lake. Its only a quick 5-minute drive to Bowness for boat trips and sightseeing, which was handy. The terrace and hot tub were perfect after a day out and all the modern comforts inside made it even better. The owners were so thoughtful, leaving us lovely gifts like milk, chocolates, wine and Easter eggs-such a nice touch!
