Great lodge

Wonderful 4 night break for my husband, myself and our two dogs. We used the hot tub most nights and the lodge was lovely and in a great location. We would stay again

Perfect!

We stayed here for our mini-moon, it was perfect, lovely and warm and homely, hot tub was amazing and very hot.. the site was clean and equipped, the bar area served good pub grub and was fairly priced... great location within the park as it’s tucked away and the park itself is a half hour walk to Windermere and Bowness. The lodge was clean and well equipped with essentials. An added bonus is that Asda do a delivery to the park so we didn’t even have to go looking for a supermarket. Overall excellent and would highly recommend bramble bank.

Just Wow

I absolutely loved this break away. Our first time in the Lake District and I am so glad I booked this lodge. Gorgeous location on Lake Windermere, beautiful lodge and the privacy of the hot tub was fantastic. Very clean and had everything we needed. Regarding the location again, it's perfect for exploring. We visited Ambelside, Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere but couldn't wait to get back to Bramble Lodge on the evening to enjoy it. Lots of great information leaflets and the master bed is so comfortable. I can't thank you enough for our fabulous break away and we will definitely be returning next year. I have already recommended you to my family and friends and my brother is looking at booking a stay already. Thank you.

Excellent stay at Bramble Bank

We had a fantastic stay here with the kids and dog. Lodge was very clean and well equipped. The hotub was excellent, even in the evening drizzle. Great location close to everything you need (with a car). Will definitely be back as we didn't do everything we wanted and would happily stay at Bramble Bank Lodge again

Lovely stay!

Nice little accommodation in an ideal location with the bonus of being pet friendly. The hot tub was very nice after walking several miles. Not sure of the parks facilities as we didn’t use them

Second stay at Bramble Bank

This is the second stay we have had at Bramble Bank and are planning a third next year. The lodge is nice and private with the hot tub tucked away around the side. The location is great, just a short drive into Bowness-on-Windermere and Windermere itself. The lodge is dog friendly which is ideal for us. Whitecross bay has a small playground for kids and a clubhouse, which we didn’t use because we had a dog with us. Same with the swimming pool. Would recommend staying here and I specifically book Bramble Bank when I do. If I could change one thing it would be being allowed to leave the dog for short periods of time in the lodge (crate trained) whilst going swimming.
