Perfect

Great well equipped lodge with hot tub and perfect location and site. Next to Bowness but when on the site, you wouldn’t even realise you was next to the town.

Another thoroughly enjoyable stay at Acorn Bank

Our 3rd stay at Acorn Bank and we have booked again for next year ! It’s good to receive a 10% discount for repeat customers and the £10 charge for a dog is excellent compared to other resorts that can charge up to £50. We particularly like the great location within the park which is near to all amenities and also the privacy it offers particularly with regard to the hot tub. The welcome bottle of wine this time was a nice touch. The lodge has been newly decorated with new sofa, dining chairs and curtains though for a dog friendly lodge I’m surprised it is still carpeted in the living room ? ( I make sure the whole carpet is covered !) Just a couple of house keeping issues- only half a toilet roll was supplied between 2 bathrooms and a dog toy was found underneath the sofa so obviously carpet wasn’t cleaned properly though my dog was more than happy at finding a new ball! The outside decking area gets covered in leaves which makes it very slippy so leaving a stiff brush would be very useful. Would definitely recommend this lodge however.

Thank you for your review, Lynn and we are so pleased to hear you had another enjoyable stay at Acorn Bank. With that said thank you also for raising a couple of things with us and we shall follow these up with the housekeepers, and similarly pass on all you have said to the lodge owners for their reference. This is a great place to stay and we are delighted you thought so too. We look forward to you returning again next year!

Lovely stay at fallbarrow park.

Loved the location of the park. The lodge was clean and spacious. Bed was comfortable. Hot tub was great after a long walk with the dog. Only a couple of minutes walk to Bowness. Lots of choice for eating out( most places dog friendly). We will be definitely coming back soon. Thank you to the owners for letting us stay in your beautiful lodge and for the bottle of wine.

Acorn bank Lodge

On arrival at the lodge my first impression was it had a lot of stairs and the decking was in a very poor state. The double entrance door was filthy at the bottom and the decking was disgustingly filthy. The hot tub was great but the trees surrounding it desperately need cutting back on a few occasions big branches did fall onto us which was very dangerous considering we had a 3 month old baby and a small dog with us.

Review date: 12th July 2019

Thank you for your review Karlie. We were sorry to hear a couple of things weren't quite right for your stay and we have made the owners aware of your feedback. Your comments about the deck are somewhat surprising as it was jet washed and treated only in June. It also seems you were surprised by the fact that the lodge had a number of steps even though the pictures and website description make this very clear. The trees are managed by the park owners themselves and they have been asked to look at whether the branches need any attention. They aren't however considered dangerous although it is inevitable that when it is windy the odd small branch or twig may break off. Acorn Bank is a very popular lodge which enjoys a private and elevated location within Fallbarrow Park.

2nd Stay at Acorn Bank Lodge

This was our 3rd stay at Fallbarrow Park and 2nd stay at Acorn Bank Lodge. The lodge was clean and comfortable with everything we needed for an enjoyable stay, we loved the décor. We like the elevated position of this lodge as you aren't overlooked. The only downside to this position is that the trees could do with pruning back as on a windy day they scrape on the roof and this could keep some people awake at night. The location is ideal for walking into Bowness. The staff at the site are all very helpful and friendly. We would recommend it to anyone.
