“One of our best family UK stays yet!”
We ended up being moved to Millstream Ridge due to an issue with the Beeches. We we're informed ahead of time and got the key code before we even left our home. Sarah was great at sorting us out. It's the same layout and just a few cabins up so this review will cover the original lodge too.

We ended up being moved to Millstream Ridge due to an issue with the Beeches. We we're informed ahead of time and got the key code before we even left our home. Sarah was great at sorting us out. It's the same layout and just a few cabins up so this review will cover the original lodge too.
On arrival there were some lovely touches with fresh milk and local produce provided. The cabins are away from the hustle and bustle, and with little traffic made a safe space for us to explore (we have a 4 year old). Also great to retreat back to in the evenings after a full day out.
The lodge itself was modern, clean and well layed out, and had a lovely patio overlooking the wildflowers.Out of all the lodge style homes we've stayed in, this was by far the most equipped and homely feel lodge. The washing machine came in handy especially after a trip to Go Ape.
Location wise we were 20 mins by car from Windermere, Grizedale and Ulveston and the steam train station was 4 mins in the car. Perfect for a rainy day with little ones. It did get busy so get there a good 20-30 mins before the train departs. We really got to explore all parts of the local area which was fab as there was lots to keep all entertained. We did a quick shop at m&s about 15 mins away, they picked up a few bits from the local towns when we were out and about.
Overall we had a fab time and we're looking forward to booking again next year!
