Description

Bella's Retreat is a delightful lodge resting in White Cross Bay, Cumbria.

Ideal for families, friends, or couples seeking a Lake District escape, this single-storey retreat enjoys lake and mountain views, off-road parking, an enclosed decking area, and a private hot tub for making the most of time spent outdoors.

Arrive and step into the bright open-plan living space, where the kitchen, dining area, and sitting area combine to create a sociable setting for your stay.

Whether preparing breakfast before a day of adventures or gathering around the dining table in the evening, this welcoming hub makes spending time together effortless.

The sitting area provides a pleasant place to settle with a favourite film on the Smart TV, while the electric fire adds warmth and atmosphere on cooler evenings.

When the day draws to a close, two thoughtfully arranged bedrooms await.

The king-size room benefits from its own Smart TV and an en-suite bathroom with a bath and shower over, offering flexibility for morning routines, while a contemporary shower room serves the double bedroom with a walk-in shower.

Outside, the enclosed decking invites guests to dine alfresco, enjoy the surrounding scenery, or sink into the bubbling hot tub after a day exploring the landscape of Cumbria.

The lodge is well positioned for discovering some of the Lake District's most celebrated destinations.

Bowness-on-Windermere offers boat trips across Lake Windermere, The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, and lakefront walks.

Nearby Ambleside is home to Stock Ghyll Force, Armitt Library and Museum Centre, and scenic routes leading into the fells.

Venture to Keswick to explore Derwent Pencil Museum, Theatre by the Lake, and Derwentwater's picturesque shores.

From waterside strolls to mountain vistas and family attractions, there is plenty to fill every itinerary from Bella's Retreat.

What an absolute gem of a find!

We recently stayed at this beautiful lodge and could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care and attention goes into the property. It was spotlessly clean and equipped with absolutely everything we needed for a comfortable, stress free stay. The hosts were warm, welcoming and incredibly helpful throughout our visit, making sure we had all the details we needed while giving us space to relax. If you are looking for a peaceful getaway with fantastic hospitality and top notch accommodation, this lodge is perfection. We can't wait to return!

    All holiday parks are owned and managed by a separate company to ourselves.

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.

    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.

    Any issues relating to a stay at a privately owned lodge should be reported back through Lake District Lodge Holidays as the park are not responsible for managing the lodge or booking for private sublet guests during their stay.

    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.
