Staying in Badgers Rest at Limefitt Park was a very positive experience

Our stay at Badgers Rest located in Limefitt Park was a very positive experience. The siting of the lodge was perfect for the views and for easy access to the amenities available such as dog walking, playground and general recreation. The setting of the park is very discreet in such a lovely location and provides an excellent base for both local exploration and for going further afield to other areas. The accommodation offered by the lodge is to a very high standard.

Welcome winter break

We have stayed at Badgers Rest several times with our family and always found it to be comfortable and well equipped. The lodge has a lovely quiet location on the park overlooking a field which makes it a great viewing point for local wildlife. Close enough to Windermere and Ambleside for a drive out to shops and restaurants and far enough to enjoy time away from normal busy work life. We will return.

Thank you for taking time to leave a review, Adele and it is very pleasing to hear you had another enjoyable stay at Badgers Rest. This beautifully presented three-bedroom lodge is an ideal place to relax and unwind. A modern and cosy lodge with magnificent views. We look forward to welcoming you again in the near future.

Already booked for next stay!

This was our first time in the Lake District and the lodge looked like a good base to be able to get out and travel around. Being allowed to take 2 dogs was the main reason for choosing Badgers Rest and it didn't disappoint! It was clean and tidy and felt very homely and comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could need and having a washing machine really helped. The view from the lodge was fantastic and the big windows in the lounge were great to deer and bird watch. Loved our stay and have already booked in for the next one.

Fabulous Lodge

This is our third visit and we love it. It is spacious, warm and well stocked in the kitchen and their are games and dvds for the evenings. Is it 5 mins drive from the main road to Ambleside and Windermere so the location is fantastic. Wonderful views with a bird feeder which attracts lots of visitors every day and it’s very peaceful. There is a river which you can paddle in and a playground for primary age kids.

Great lodge

The lodge had everything we needed for our weeks stay. The site was very quiet which is what we wanted. The kitchen and crockery were well equipped. The lodge itself roomy and considering it was October very warm. The lodge position is great and not overlooked. The site was perfectly located and dog friendly. We will be back.

Great lodge, great views, but outdoor seating needs a clean.

Badgers Rest is a lovely lodge. Very comfortable, spacious, very well equipped, and with a lovely view over the playing field and woodland. We saw deer, rabbits, a fox and many different birds. It’s in a very peaceful setting. The outside decking is large and wraps around the lodge. The only problem we had was the cast iron outdoor furniture was so full of bird poop that we didn’t like to sit on it. There is a large tree overhanging it, so some bird droppings are inevitable. But it hadn’t been washed in months. Or at least that’s how it looked. Could the owners not arrange for a jet wash between guests? There is another table at the other end of the decking, but this is very small and has only two chairs. So it wasn’t suitable as there were six of us. This is the only reason we would not stay at this lodge again. Limefitt itself is lovely so we will be returning.
