“Loved our NewYear 5 night stay at this Lodge it was in the perfect location facing the Lake and had everything we needed in the lodge .”

It was a shame that when we tried to book it again there was no bookings available all year .

Mrs Hand December 2021

“We arrived for our Christmas visit on the 22nd December for 5 nights, we stayed at the same lodge for Christmas last year so were quite excited.”

We know from our visit last year that the lodge was up for sale and it was quite obvious that nothing had been done to the lodge since our last visit so all wear and tear issues from last time were more apparent this time, I believe with a bit of TLC this lodge could be amazing as it is in the prime location of white cross bay Also the cleaning standard had slipped and was extremely dusty and many cobwebs. We did have an issue with the heating but due to Christmas we thought it would be best to contact the owner directly, we managed to find the details on line, with a lot of emailing back and forth the problem was rectified on the 2nd day, it was quite frustrating not having heating on christmas day till later in the evening as the bathrooms and bedrooms were extremely cold. The big positive of our stay was the hot tub and the amazing views

Mr Middlemiss October 2021

“Property needs some TLC.”

Heat came on at the wrong time, seating was uncomfortable, shower needed fixing, blind cord was broken, plates were chipped and no bottle opener that worked. Pity as the location was brilliant

- Mr Middlemiss, October 2021
Mr Room October 2021

“This is our 4th stay at Stickle Ghyll.”

Every year it has gone downhill. Its still up for sale so we believe the owners are just trying to move it on without spending anymore money on it. The bedroom window was broken, you could just pull it open from outside, the sofa was so uncomfortable I sat on the floor! The heating was playing up, the hot tub wasn’t working properly. The tv in the bedroom was smashed! All these points had been raised by the previous occupants as the maintenance man who came to look at the window explained so these issues should of been rectified. Its been nearly 3 weeks now since we left. I have asked for some compensation for our stay and the owners apparently still haven’t returned any of Sykes emails! Its not good enough. When we first stayed in this lodge 5 years ago we loved it. We will not return here. Its such a shame as its in one of the best positions by Lake Windermere and with some TLC it could be amazing. I didn’t want to post this review until I had heard back from the owners but as 3 weeks has nearly passed I felt the need to let anybody know who was considering booking this lodge to give it a wide berth until all the issues had been resolved and compensation has been paid back to anyone who has requested it. No one should be paying full price for this lodge currently.

Mrs James September 2021

“Overall we had a nice stay and were glad to be away.”

Perfectly positioned with the most amazing views. Comfy bed, lodge nice and spacious for our party of 4. Few points which may be worth noting and would stop me from booking this again; - Bedroom 1 left window does not lock or close. Property not secure when you leave as if there is any wind, the window blows open. I had to tie using a hair bobble because it made the back of the lodge freezing in the night which still left a gap but at least it didnt blow all the way open like the first night. Would hate to be there as the temperature drops. - Shower rail within ensuite shower enclosure loose. - No iron (doesn't make sense when there is a ironing board) - No hair dryer - not essential but this is the first place we have stayed where one hasn't been provided. - Wifi non existent. Does not seem to reach lakeside from the main building. Not even enough strength for whatsapp never mind trying to stream a movie (TV channels are really limited). - Clean on arrival but glass within the property (fire, wine cooler, TV) all with hand marks - Patio chair damaged - Sofa in the lounge torn and stained - Carpet stained Still a nice place, just needs a little TLC

- Mrs James, September 2021
Mr Burgess August 2021

“Just one slight moan , the window in bedroom 2 would not lock , therefore possibly enabling unauthorised entry by would be intruder .”

Fantastic place to stay though , would not hesitate to recommend . thank you.

- Mr Burgess, August 2021
Mr Price August 2021

“A cinema screen was placed right outside our lodge playing very loudly until 10pm, keeping our two young children awake way past bedtime.”

After it had finished, the staff then spent the next hour clearing up while blaring music loudly from their car. It was extremely disrespectful under normal circumstances but very deliberately so since we’d informed them we had two young children in the lodge.

- Mr Price, August 2021
Mr Keeley July 2021

“A beautifully presented, clean and comfortable lodge with amazing views.”

We really enjoyed the hot tub and exploring the local area. Thank you..

“Wonderful time in the Stickle Ghyll.”

The location of the lodge is just perfect. Sitting in the hot tub looking out over the lake was a real treat.

- Mrs Casey, June 2021
Mrs Di Bernardo June 2021

“This lodge has amazing views of the lakes!”

Good position within the park. We had a lovely peaceful, relaxing break. Nice hot tub - was pleased that it was checked daily by someone. The lodge is modern and beds were comfortable. Great that it had a dishwasher and large fridge freezer and washing machine too! Would book this lodge again. There were a couple of things that hadn't been cleaned properly which we were slightly disappointed with considering we are in Covid times. Glass fire place had finger marks all over it and the wine cooler too but we didn't need to use either during the stay so didn't affect us. Everything else looked clean and tidy.

- Mrs Di Bernardo, June 2021
Statham May 2021

“The lodge is fantastic in most aspects but the sofa is very uncomfortable ant the WiFi is nonexistent, couldn’t connect to the site WiFi at all, there should have their own lodge WiFi in one of the best locations on site.”

- Statham, May 2021
Miss Haigh May 2021

“Excellent place to stay and the view of the lake was beautiful.”

Watching the boats, despite the weather had a really good time. Would highly recommend and the lodge was very modern and clean, the facilities on the site are good. We would definitely come again

- Miss Haigh, May 2021
Mrs Kim Oliver Nov 2020

Sofa and chairs very uncomfortable could do with replacing. Bigger TV needed in lounge with more choice of channels e.g. Sky What did you enjoy most about your stay? The views and the hot tub What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walks and taking in the views

Mr Jamie Lloyd Oct 2020

“We stayed for a long weekend in Stickle Ghyll Lodge - a well enjoy stay in a beautiful lodge.”

Had everything we needed, modern furnishings, and the hot tub was a BONUS! Easy check in with a lady at reception who met you at your car on arrival then the code to the key safe text shortly after we arrived. Lovely location, in 30 min walking distance to Windermere and close to Ambleside, Keswick etc for plenty of days out and back to the lodge to relax. One of the most private lodges in the park which we were happy with and overlooking Lake Windermere which was lovely to wake up to! Have already recommended to several friends and family and will definitely look to stay again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location, hot tub, views. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Bowness-on-Windermere - walking distance within 1 hour.

Mrs Beverley Edmonds Sep 2020

“We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Stickle Ghyll and even though the weather was a bit dull the stunning views did not disappoint.”

It was so lovely sitting outside watching the boats on Lake Windermere and having the use of the hot tub also with great Lake views. The lodge is very nice, although a little tired, but everything was clean. We had a couple of minor issues with the lodge which were dealt with very quickly. There is plenty to do in the local area and the location is great for travelling to the fells for some fantastic walks. This was our third time staying at White Cross Bay and we will definitely be back again. Thank you What did you enjoy most about your stay? Great views, great walks What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Circular walk around Buttermere

- Mrs Beverley Edmonds, Sep 2020
Miss Danielle Phillip Aug 2020

“Lovely stay in this lodge - location was perfect in front of the lake and the hot tub was definitely a bonus!”

Lodge was clean but perhaps needed a few tweaks internally - eg. Bin didn What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location, in front of the lake What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Miller Ground very close by - good with kids

“Very nice indeed, great location, central for Bowness and Ambleside (3 miles either way) - a nice walk into either area.”

Hot tub was great (especially after mountain climbing!). We had a problem with the fridge but this was rectified quickly.

Mrs Pauline Jones Jan 2020

“Spectacular views of the lake, we couldnt have picked a better spot to celebrate christmas.”

The lodge was lovely but looked tired and missed a bit of love and personality. Customer service was excellent as always. The views were stunning, so would have helped if the windows were cleaned, so many cobwebs and dust, but we didnt let it spoil our fun. The sofa in the living room needs attention, not at all comfy. We love white cross bay and will stay again, but not in this lodge, the view made up for the niggles. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The view What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Brockhole

Mrs Sian Owen Nov 2019

“We have a love for the lakes and visit regularly, on this occasion we have children therefore searched for a camp complex style holiday with extras for little ones.”

I came across Stickle Ghyll Lodge and what a gem it was. Spotless inside with a very open modern twist to it, the external of the lodge was slightly tired compared to the other lodges but the views and location were next to none. It was a real home from home experience! 100% recommended from me What did you enjoy most about your stay? The views What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Steam Railway then crashing at the end

“A beautiful lodge positioned close to the shore of Windermere.”

We visited Allan Banks, Grasmere, Wray Castle, Keswick including rock climbing at Kong Adventure, South Lakes Zoo, Bowness-on-Windermere via the steamer and Hawkshead. Not much could be done to improve just the hot tub cover is heavy and awkward to lift. Would stay at lodge again and have booked another for next May What did you enjoy most about your stay?

Mrs Beverley Slack Jun 2019

“We had a great 2 week stay at Stickle Ghyll Lodge, it's lovely with a gorgeous view we loved waking up to that every morning.”

Very clean, kitchen well equipped and beds were very comfy. The only couple of negatives would be the lid to the hot tub is very heavy between myself & husband we just managed to get it back on each time, people with not a lot of strength would struggle, also their was no clothes airer to dry any of our towels/clothes so we had to hang them around the lodge to dry which isn't ideal. We loved our stay and our hoping to return again next year. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

“We loved our stay here, if you want to be close to lake Windermere and wake up every morning with a beautiful view then this is the lodge for you.”

Everything you could of needed was provided inside the lodge and even a small bird feeder for the birds that was such a nice touch. The cleanliness of the lodge was excellent and the beds were so soft!

Great location over looking Windermere. Everthing we needed equipment wise. The only neative points would be the couch need's replacing a little shabby and not too comfy.

Miss Amy Brown Nov 2018

“Lovely well equipped lodge in an ideal location.”

Bed was comfy and the showers were good and warm. We loved the hot tub but wished there was something to help take the lid off easily. My only complaint would be there was no way to dry clothes and towels. The washing machine doesn't have a drier function and there was no clothes horse. Luckily the weather held out for us but after hot tubbing and showers we were left with lots of wet towels. Minor point which wouldn't stop us going again. The onsite amenities were good the shop was reasonably priced and the food in the pub was good value large portions of decent food. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

We had lovely walk along the harbour, and the view was amazing! We will definitely be back. Be great in the summer also.

“Stayed at Stickle Ghyll lodge over the August Bank Holiday weekend.”

The site was lovely (restaurant/bar/indoor pool/kids play parks) and the location of the lodge on the site was perfect - literally right on the shore of the lake. The lodge has 2 bedrooms, kitchen area, 2 bathrooms, living room area with lovely double doors opening on to the deck area. The deck area is huge with a gated area in which the hot tub is kept. The lodge was cleaned to a high standard except for 2 areas; 1) the carpets were a bit grubby 2) the hot tub had a bit of debris (leaves and insects) floating on it when we took the cover off on the 1st night (nothing our fishing net couldn't sort out) Our 2 kids loved the hot tub and it could be heated to 39C which was fab for a late night dip. In summary, this lodge is in a perfect location on a lovely site and we will back. If the carpets were periodically cleaned, it would be 5 stars. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Hot tub and the view from the deck What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?

Everything you can ask for. Location perfect right near Lake Windermere, lovely view from the decking area. Hot tub was brilliant and perfect to chill. White cross bay park was a nice site with decent food and drinks in the club house which was only a 5 min walk from the lodge. The kids also liked the arcades at white cross.

“Absolutely lovely lodge, it's just as good as it looks in the photos which for some hotels/lodges can be deceiving, I would probbaly say the photos don't do the place enough justice, the hot tub is such a good feature especially when it's cold outside, it was very clean and inviting on arrival, with a couple of treats left on the kitchen counter for us to enjoy, TVs in both bedrooms were a nice touch also, had a very nice relaxing weekend and would definitely return to this lodge again What did you enjoy most about your stay?”

“Absolutely loved our time at Stickle Ghyll.”

Stunning location right on the edge of the lake. On arrival the lodge was warm and welcoming and spotlessly clean. Relaxing in the hot tub was heaven after a day out in chilly February.

The twin towns of Bowness and Windermere are both vibrant, fun-filled places set within the splendid scenery of the Lake District. Both towns provide a range of amenities, shops and restaurants to suit all tastes whilst Ambleside offers the additional attraction of a boat ride to Bowness, the Lakeside Aquarium and Beatrix Potter's 'Hill Top House' at Sawrey. Grizedale Forest Park is within easy driving distance and is home to a range of activities including many good walks, mountain biking and the 'Go Ape' adventure park. The region also boasts many National Trust properties as well as a variety of water sports for those who prefer a more adrenaline-fuelled trip. Children will enjoy a trip to the 'World of Beatrix Potter' in Bowness whilst the villages of Grasmere, Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains are all within easy reach.

Stickle Ghyll is accessed by 4 wooden steps. The lodge is then all on the same ground floor level.

Park Rules and Operations – White Cross Bay

All holiday parks are owned and managed by a separate company to ourselves. Lake District Lodge Holidays has no association with the owners of these parks or responsibility for the provision of services they offer. At certain times of year, there maybe a reduction in those services, which is outside of our control.

Commercial vehicles, caravans, camper vans, Hen or Stag parties are not permitted onsite. Dogs must be kept on leads at all times and are not be left alone in the lodges at any point during your stay.

You will be staying on an operational holiday park, which means work may be undertaken from time to time by the park owners during your stay. Although Lake District Lodge Holidays will always try to inform guests in advance if something may impact on a stay and if we have prior knowledge. We cannot be held responsible or accept any liability for park operations of which are outside of our control and which we have no knowledge of.

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.
