“Excellent situation.”

Short walk into town and lake. Lodge very clean and comfortable. Pity about the weather, rained all week but still enjoyed it. We would stay in this Lodge again.

“My wife and I and our jack Russell stayed at Buttermere lodge 14th-18th March,although the weather wasn't great the lodge was.”

For cleanliness,comfort,and facilities I've got to give it 5 star's. 2 minutes walk to the sites bar and shop and 5 minutes walk to all the facilities of Bowness, would not hesitate to recommend Buttermere lodge to anyone.Thanks for a great stay.

“The lodge had everything we needed, even down to supplying dog bowls!”

It was like a home from home. It was a lovely warm lodge, the heating and shower were both nice and hot. There are TVs in both bedrooms. Fantastic location, 5 minute walk to the shops in Bowness. It’s also a good base to visit places around the Lakes by car which we did. The electricity did trip when we got there but maintenance were there within 5 minutes of me ringing them. Couldn’t ask for a better service. Would definitely recommend this lodge and I will definitely be re-booking this again. Overall a fabulous relaxing stay.

“Just a quick note to say I spent 3 nights at Buttermere Lodge with my 2 daughters aged 17 and 12, everything was as you would expect and more.”

The owners provide everything that you need apart from food, it was spotless, warm and cosy. The complimentary bottle of fizz was an added bonus for me to relax in the hot tub! Site facilities are great, a very friendly and quiet site would definitely stay again. Thank you Sykes Holiday cottages.

“Buttermere lodge had everything you needed for a weekend away.”

Fallbarrow park is perfect location with a 2 minute walk straight on in to Bowness with all the bars. The lodge is perfectly located near to the main reception and the onsite pub/cafe. On Saturday we had a lovely walk around the park with easy access to Lake Windermere. The hot tub made the lodge - beautiful quiet location & was always warm anf ready to use.

Claire October 2021

“We had a great time here and had a comfortable stay.”

We enjoyed using the hot tub and facilities on site. The site WiFi is poor and so is the tv reception in the lodge but this is only a small detail for us. We were unable to book a table for a meal, instead you just turn up and hope for the best. We decided not to bother as the menu was very limited and expensive for what it was. You are in walking distance to Bowerness so we ate out locally instead, with lots of different places to choose from. This is the second time we stayed on site here but our first time using Lake District lodge holidays, we were meant to stay last year but due to lock down we were able to cancel and got a refund so we decided to book again with you. We’d definitely consider this lodge again if we were to visit again but the prices would need to drop back down to the same price we paid this time as they have gone up considerably. Thanks for a great weekend away

“We adore this lodge and have been staying for several years now to enjoy a birthday or other celebration.”

Its a great lodge in a lovely part of the park and we have made some wonderful memories there. We are devastated that this will be our last stay, having paid £600 for three nights this year, the same three nights next year is now over £1300.

“This lodge is ideally situated for exploring the lakes and is a great place to base yourself.”

The lodge is beautiful, modern and very clean and loved that the heating was on when we arrived which made it nice and cosy. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could need. I loved that it had a washing machine which was used only when we got out the hot tub to rinse and spin our swim wear. There is a clothes dryer/clothes horse to put your wet clothes on too and it soon dried in the warm lodge. The hot tub was beautiful and very welcome after a long day of walking in the hills and around the lakes. We will definitely be back again to this lodge, perfect stay and very relaxing.

Mr Gary Preston Sep 2019

“Stayed at the Buttermere Lodge for the 2nd year running and this time we stayed on dates 16th September 2019 until 23rd September 2019 and we couldn't have picked a better week for the weather.”

The location of the Buttermere Lodge is a stones throw away from the Centre of Bowness which is ideal. When we arrived the lodge was as we remembered but on settling in to the lodge on our first day we noticed it wasn't as clean as we thought. We found a stain on the carpet near the bathroom door, toe-nail clippings in the sitting room, splash marks up the main doors and the kitchen cupboard doors and it was very dusty around the beds and this was only noticed when we nudged the bed slightly and it appeared to have loads of fluff. I would say though, that once we noticed this, we contacted Lake District Lodge Holidays and within an hour, the cleaner was there to give it a thorough clean and we were very happy with the lodge moving forward so the service was second to none. I think the lodge is starting to see small signs of wear and tear wit ha lot of spiders webs which I think should be cleaned for the arrival of each customer and the lodge is expensive having paid nearly What did you enjoy most about your stay?

Mrs Louise Hadfield Aug 2019

“Loved Buttermere lodge, very clean and comfortable and fantastic location.”

Handy for walking into Bowness and a great base for exploring the Lakes. We used the bar twice - played Bingo with the kids and used the arcade which they loved. Kettle was broken but replaced the next day and needed an airer to hang wet washing on which was provided the next day also - great service. We loved the hot tub - especially the kids. And it was so nice walking the dog round the park and down to the lake - stunning views of Windermere. Everyone very friendly and helpful, would definitely return and recommend to family and friends. We were lucky with the weather and only had 1 day of rain, so we went swimming that day to Choices up the road which was included in the lodge price. Thanks for the wine What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lovely clean and comfortable lodge and location. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Tree Trop Trek at Brockholes - great fun and loved the Zip wire.

“Stayed at Buttermere Lodge in Bowness on the 15th - 18th June 2018 with my wife and 2 small dogs and yet the weather was not the best it didn't stop us having a wonderful time in the lakes.”

Having been to Bowness a number of times, I have always wanted to stay in Fallbarrow Park and when this came up and we arrived at the lodge, we couldn't be more surprised on how great the lodge was - Easy Check in at reception, straight to the lodge which was no more than 100 yards away and when we opened the door it was stunning. Clean throughout, very spacious and the added bonus of the hot tub. Although the weather wasn't great, it came down to the location as the lodge was a 2 minute walk in to Bowness where all the action is. I would definitely recommend this lodge to anyone wanting to come to the lakes in the summer or winter as it is perfect lodge to stay at with a small family and ideally located for all bars, shops and restaurants. What did you enjoy most about your stay? How great the lodge was and its location. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? To do a bit research on what you can do when you get to the lakes - few great walks around windermere and up to Ambleside.

........ on arrival the whole lodge was immaculate inside and out. This has got to be the nicest lodge we have ever stayed in (and we've stayed in a few in fallbarrow over the last 10 years). The kitchen was well equipped and everything in working order including a dishwasher and a washing machine which was really handy. Two really good sized bedrooms, one twin and one double (with en suite ) which were both really comfortable and agood size family bathroom with bath. The hot tub was the added bonus to soothe those aching muscles. The lodge was a stones throw away from the complex bar, children's park and on site shop/cafe which has all of the essentials.

“Very impressed upon arrival, a complimentary bottle of wine was a lovely touch!”

Very impressed with the cleanliness and presentation 10/10. A bit on the pricey side however we were happy and more than impressed with the lodge and location. The only downside was the bed, it was very small. I wouldn't say myself and partner are tall at all, we woke in the night with our feet sticking out of the bottom and kept waking each other in the night with there not being much room, sadly we left a night early due to the bed as we couldn't sleep well at all. The rest of the facilities were fantastic just a shame about the bed ! Fallbarrow park is a beautiful location to stay i would definitely come again. Thank you for having us, it was a lovely break :) What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?

The fact that it was dog friendly was a big plus factor for us and our Lab enjoyed it as much as we did.

Really lovely lodge in central location, would certainly return again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Central location, comfortable surroundings, everything to hand.

The accommodation is to a really high standard and the hot tub is a nice treat. The weather wasn't great for our stay but Bowness is in walking distance and the cabin is so comfortable it was nice just to relax and stay in watching the rain! There is a bar, restaurant and deli on the holiday park. Despite the warning about mobile reception, we didn't have any problems with O2. The free wifi however only seemed to be for 30mins per day. We would definitely return again and hope for better weather!

Hot Tubs

For the comfort of other holidays guests we request that noise is kept to a minimum. Usage of the hot tub is between 10am and 10pm only. If you are found to breach these timings then you may be asked to vacate the park with no call for a refund.

All hot tubs are maintained to strict industry standards and HSE guidelines by separate qualified independent contractors on behalf of the property owners. This includes changing the water between guest stays and checking the water condition on a regular basis.

Whilst every effort is made to have a hot tub ready for immediate use by the arrival time stated, this may not always be possible. In such cases the hot tub will usually be ready to use later that day unless otherwise advised. In such cases no compensation or refund is payable unless the hot tub is faulty.

Information about using a hot tub safely is provided at all lodges with a hot tub and on a prominent notice near the tub. All hot tub users should wear an appropriate bathing suit. Usage of a hot tub is at a guests own risk and Lake District Lodge Holidays accepts no liability for anything which may happen to a guest as a direct result of using a hot tub.
