“Wonderful”

“This is the second time I have sayed at glaramara and sadly it seems to have deteriorated within a year.”

The bed linen in the twin room smelt stale like it had been left in the washing machine too long and the room had a urine/sicky smell which reminded me of an old people's home .I appreciate it is a pet friendly lodge but the whole place did not smell fresh and didn't feel very clean which was very off putting.there was dog hair around and underneath the double bed .the towels in the double room were also hard and crispy . My first stay a year ago was lovely however we left feeling rather disappointed on this occasion and it is unlikely we will book again.

- Belinda, May 2022

I am sorry that you found Glaramara had deteriorated. The beds including mattresses in the twin room were replaced less than 4 weeks ago. Perhaps there was a new mattress smell - although we were staying at the time and didn’t notice anything? We deep cleaned the lodge before Easter including under all the beds. Our cleaner has worked for us for a long time and our feedback is normally really positive.Edit 3/6/2022 The cleaner and I inspected the twin room and there was no sign of any staining and we couldn’t detect any unpleasant smells.

“Beds and couches a little tired.”

- Derek, May 2022

Thank you for your feedback which we have passed across to the owner to look into further. We hope this will not deter you from returning and we look forward to welcoming you back. From the owner:- The twin beds were brand new at the start of May 2022. The mattress on the double bed is less than 3 years old, as is the sofa. Property Owner

“Just got back from a lovely week, the location was very good for walks from the door and an easy walk into Keswick!”

The lodge was excellent with beautiful views from the balcony, it was spotlessly clean and comfortable with all amenities included which added to our amazing stay! Will definitely return in the future as we have so much more to explore!

- Allan, April 2022

Glad you had a great stay. Property Owner

“Top gaf, make sure you walk round derwent water with your dog, eat at the pheasant over the road it’s top”

- Kieron, April 2022

Thanks for the feedback. The walk around Derwent water is great - and if that feels too far, the number 78 open top bus or the Kewick launch are great for the return journey from Lodore. Property Owner

“Couldn't fault it at all excellent .”

Would stay again

Keith February 2022

“We have just returned from a 7 night stay at Glaramara.”

The lodge is in a lovely position with views from the rear decking and although site is close to the main busy A66 and roundabout you don’t really notice or hear the traffic. Few minutes walk into town and well worth it as street parking was a problem as busy. The lodge is very well equipped with everything you could need and comfortable and warm. Our only criticism would be to replace the tube bedroom and bathroom lighting to white light rather than yellow as a little dark to see. Also, I couldn’t find a comfortable pillow as they were all a little flat and lumpy. I would probably take my own for our future visit. Other than that lovely holiday accommodation. Many Thanks!

- Keith, February 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We hadn't intended replacing the lights, but we will have another look at them. Property Owner

“Absolutely loved our stay at Glaramara, was everything we were expecting and the surroundings were beautiful, would highly recommend.”

The only downside was the constant reminder I kept getting via email of everything we needed to do before we left such as take bedding off, hoover, no pots to be left out, no sign of dog hair etc the list was endless so we felt like we had to leave a day early so we could spend a good couple of hours cleaning which we did cutting out holiday short. I’m all for having a good clear up before I leave but I’ve never had so many demands when stopping anywhere previously. We have 2 dogs who also loved it but to say there can be no sign of dogs once we have left is crazy, surely that’s what cleaners are for.

- Natalie, November 2021

All we ask is for guests to leave the property as they find it. Requests to strip beds and wipe down surfaces are to minimise C-19 risks for our cleaners. Property Owner
Linda October 2021

“Glaramara is a wonderful, warm, clean, comfortable lodge with excellent amenities.”

In a quiet location with great view from the patio and only a short distance from the lovely town of Keswick. Had a brilliant 5 night stay here (despite the weather!) and would definitely recommend. Thank you.

- Linda, October 2021

Thank you for your feedback. If only we could fix the weather! Glad you still managed to enjoy your stay. Property Owner

“Loved the lodge great location and everything we needed for a great staycation ...”

Loved the lodge great location and everything we needed for a great staycation Unfortunately let down by lack of any communication from Lake District lodge holidays on the deposit refund which we still await several weeks after our stay despite leaving the lodge spotless

- Jon, July 2021

Thank you for your feedback, we are delighted to hear of how much you enjoyed your stay. Nothing your comments on your outstanding security deposit, we have emailed you directly regarding this and we hope this clears it up for you. We are sorry you felt the need to place the comment on the feedback but we do hope if you wish to discuss anything further, you will get in touch with us directly. Glaramara is a wonderful lodge in a great location and is definitely worth another visit in the future. Property Owner

“We've stayed at Glaramara twice before and have always been very happy with the lodge and the location.”

Unfortunately this time 2 weeks after we completed our holiday I am still waiting for a refund of the housing bond. We left the lodge immaculate and even offered to pay for the plastic fish slice which snapped. It was already very worn and we only used it once before it broke. I waited on the telephone last week for some time before I was told the refund would be in my account mon/tues. Yet again I waited 10 minutes on the phone earlier and gave up when nobody answered. Due to us enthusing about the property 2 sets of friends have booked Glaramara and we have another week booked in September. If I am going to have to beg for my refund each time I go there I will certainly not be booking any holidays there in the future and shall inform friends about the difficulty in getting our money back.
