Visitor Reviews of Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges

Lovely stay the lodge it has all the kitchen equipment needed and even left dog bowls, towels and dog treats. The double bed was very soft and a little uncomfortable but overall was a fantastic stay!

A nice lodge equipped with everything needed, two full bathrooms with shower and a double and twin bedroom. The only downside was the size of the outside space with the hot tub taking over a good proportion of the decking. As there were only two of us it wasn't an issue but for four it would be a bit of a squeeze to sit outside comfortably.

What a wonderful few days we had in Grisedale lodge. The special touches of a goody bag, bowls blankets and towels for the dog were lovely as well as the chocolates, fresh milk, fizz and beer for us. The location was stunning and the views from the hot tub were beautiful. We explored Keswick, Ambleside and the local forests during our stay and had a peaceful walk around Bassenthwaite lake. Highly recommend and we will definitely return again soon.

Great size lodge in an excellent location on the park. Bedrooms are ample sized and well equipped. Lodge has everything you need for a relaxing holiday, a real home from home. Hot tub great, there were only 4 of us so there was plenty room. Might be a squeeze for 6! Christmas tree in lounge was a lovely touch too. Only slight criticism is that the lodge is clearly a few years old now and was a bit tired in places - could perhaps do with a fresh lick of paint here and there. Saying that, all the extra touches more than made up for it, dog bowls, blanket, treats, mulled wine and lagers, table set beautifully on arrival etc. would defo stay here again!!!

Amazing holiday. Second time we have been and loved it both times. Defo recommend

Had Christmas here with hubby and the dog. Lovely touch was the Christmas tree and mulled wine & box of chocolates. Lodge is very comfortable apart from the single beds in 2nd bedroom. I used one of these as hubby doesnt sleep too good sometimes!They are very small for adults, and it was ever so slightly on a slant.Would say its not suitable for four adults sharing. Other than that was very nice break.

Thirlmere Lodge after our previous lodge at Ruthven in Scotland was very disappointing. The hedges were overgrown hanging on the bedroom windows, banging on windows in the wind at night. Fridge freezer doors were all splits and the plastic covering hanging off.Nasty smell in bedroom which got worse was discovered to be black mould and Mildew on the damp curtains which were only about 18 from bed head. Not good for my husband who suffers from Asthma, these were replaced after I reported the condition to reception half way through our stay.The surrounding hedges were cut right down the day before we left.The actual site is beautiful it was the condition of the lodge which ruined our holidayI am able to E Mail you photographic evidence should it be requiredTo back up my complaint.I regularly book the family holidays with Hoseasons and never have a problem

Lodge was very clean and beautifully decorated but needed a little TLC in places ie, one of roller blinds brackets was hanging off the wall and the drawer bottoms needed fixing.

Very clean lodge with fabulous views of the lake. Could do with some updating especially the decking area. Had an issue with the shower and the Bbq but both were fixed quick and efficiently. Still enjoyed our break and found the lodge to be very comfortable.

We felt the Country Lodge Plus offered the perfect balance of luxury (hot tub and fittings) vs price when compared to the next level of lodge above. We were fortunate to get Burthwaite right by the lake and the dog walking paddock. Blown away by the view and peace. It was a bird spotters paradise - so many species. Well maintained, a lovely size for us 2 adults and 2 small dogs. Highly recommended and the site owners/management really excelled themselves on service. Thank you.

Lodge was clean, comfortable and in excellent order. Bottle of milk tea and coffee and a bottle of fizz and beer was a nice touch. Quiet site on the side of the lake was perfect for us. Bit expensive otherwise would definetely be back.

Date of stay: 28th April 2022
We stayed in Hawkshead which had everything we needed, it was lovely and clean and comfortable, the bathroom is amazing I loved the large bath. The decking could do with some tender loving care and the door to the decking seems to have dropped and needs some attention but all in all we had a lovely relaxing break away.

Couldn't have asked for better location, directly on the lake and very secluded. Property itself was clean, spacious and equipped with everything we needed, 100% will be going back.
