  • "This is the second time we have stayed at Oak Lodge, and it was as exactly as we remembered it - perfect."

    The Lodge is in a beautiful and peaceful location and is spacious, spotlessly clean and well maintained. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils etc and the beds are very comfy. The hot tub is lovely, especially after a day of walking or exploring, we didn't even let a little rain shower deter us! The hot tub is cleaned between each guest too. There is a good range of dvds and some games provided, great if the weather isn't on your side or for a chilled day. There is a nice seating area outside with countryside views. The only suggestion would be for a little outside heater, although we did bring blankets for sitting outside. The welcome bottle of wine and chocolate was a lovely touch. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and will definitely be back next year.

  • "The most beautiful cabin I have ever seen let alone stay in."

    Absolutely stunning surroundings, we didn't have the best weather but it truly didn't matter. If your goal is to relax then I highly recommend Oak Lodge. The hot tub is perfect and easy to use, and the welcome bottle of prosecco and chocolate was a lovely surprise. We even made a little friend in a beautiful tabby cat who came and hung out the first morning. Honestly nothing I can say will do it justice. We simply can't wait to come back

  • "This was a fabulous lodge to stay at."

    Very clean, great furniture and amazing hot tub. Carole was quick to respond to any questions we had. They provided us with books, games and DVDs under the TV cabinet. Amazing scenery, with lakes, greenery and animals around the area. Would definitely come back here. If you're check-in during the winter then do try to get there whilst you have daylight as the road (narrow, hilly and 2 miles long) to the lodge is pitch black with no lights and can easily miss the sign to the path that leads to the lodges.

    It was a fabulous, secluded property Nothing overlooked it So private. You look out onto fields full of farm life, such a lovely view whilst drinking your morning cuppa. The house had everything you needed, was super clean and very comfortable. Having two bathrooms was handy with two 14 year old girls. The hot tub was an added bonus and rounded off our busy days out and about. Everything we did was only a short drive away from the property, and kept the girls entertained, things such as Go Ape, paddle boarding and short walking in the countryside. Thanks for a fab stay , would definitely come again and highly recommend.

    However, on the first day the hot tub was cold. We called the site manager who advised that the hot tub had been emptied and refilled due to the previous guests. We would have preferred to have been informed of this on arrival as opposed to having to contact the site manager to find out the problem.

  • "The log cabin was well equipped yet we were extremely disappointed to find just one toilet roll left in the toilets upon arrival, perhaps we assumed wrong but we would have expected more and therefore we had to go out to get additional, which took 1+hr due to the storm and the only roads to Ulverston closed."

    Would suggest for future stays that enough toilet roll is provided for guests as it's the last thing you want to have to worry about. There was a power cut on the morning of check out, Noel who takes care of the cabins didn't respond to our call for 45 minutes, by the time he arrived and let us know there wasn't anything we could do, it was close to the check out time so we were very disappointed to lose the Sunday at the cabin of course this isn't anybodies fault specifically but it definitely dampened our experience.

    As it is self-catering, we just leave a toilet roll for arrival, guests do bring their own on the notes in the cabin it does say if you’re missing anything we may have it. Had you asked we would have sorted extra rolls. I do agree the storm was unfortunate on your last day and out of our hands. Property Owner

Lovely tea rooms, pubs, and shops etc. Don't forget the Laurel and Hardy museum, a must if your a fan, and also the walk by the canal was lovely. Alot of beautiful places not too far away, Kendal was a wonderful place, so was Hawkshead and Coniston. We couldn't do as much as we wanted to do, due to the rain but we still had a great time.

    Aesthetically it was modern and cosy, with Steve even putting up Christmas decorations for us prior to arrival. The lodge was fully equipped with everything we needed (kitchen utensils, plates, pans etc), even down to dishwasher tablets and fairy liquid demonstrating they had thought ahead. There was even a bottle of wine and a list of 'Ulverston Eats' waiting for us on arrival if we wanted to order food on our first night. Just what we needed after a 7 hour drive! They honestly went above and beyond to think of us. The hot tub is huge clean, and was clean and ready for use (in terms of the water being heated up) by the second day, as Steve will change the water and put in all the cleaning products prior to new guests arriving. The lodges are all situated within reasonable distance of each other however in a fashion that you still have lots of privacy, even when in the hot tub. The lodges are high up in the Cumbria countryside with stunning views from the cabin or in the hot tub, but you're also only a 5 minute drive to the nearest supermarkets. Steve also owns 2 very friendly cats, one of whom made herself cosy with us in the evenings and who we are missing very much! For us, this was the perfect restful and festive getaway we needed after a difficult 2020. No complaints at all and we would love to return! I've already recommended to many friends! Thank you for ending our 2020 on a positive note!
