A lovely lodge

Well-situated a few minutes from the lake. Clean and tidy with adequate resources. Pity there were no face-cloths or soap with the towels etc. Good hot-tub and non-slip mats all around the decking area. Very good location. All in all a good choice.

Another Lake District holiday

Nice lodge but could do with a good clean in the kitchen - oven, glasses, plates, cutlery and pans needed cleaning before use. Probably wrong week to go as we’re bombarded by wasps so could not use hot tub or decking area Otherwise a good lodge to stay in.

Tired but clean

Lodge is clean and tidy though a little dated. Hot tub was great but decking needs some tlc (especially the front steps to the lodge). Park itself was quiet and staff friendly.

Beautiful Lodge, home from home!

After obtaining the gate code from reception, follow the directions to the lodge provided by Lake District Lodge holidays - if we followed the ones given to us by reception we would still be looking for the lodge today!. The lodge is very private and in a section where there is no through traffic so very quiet. The lodge itself was beautiful and was certainly home from home and the owners have taken a lot of care into providing everything that is needed. The hot tub, although only used once, was fantastic and lovely and warm. Our only comment is that there was nowhere to hang the wet towels and swimwear after use so maybe a clothes airer would be useful. Unfortunately the week we were there it was wet and cold (although in June) so we couldn't make full use of the outside deck etc., but the lodge was lovely to come back to after a day out sightseeing and walking. The site itself was clean and although there seemed to be lots of people around there was never any noise. We went into the bar area once whilst there with the intention of having something to eat but there was only one person serving and about 15 people waiting to get served. Every table seemed to have empty glasses and plates on - I hope this was just a one off and that they were short staffed that day, although we didn't return to find out. The park is well placed as a travelling base and only a 10 minute drive from Bowness. Although we like to go to a different place each time, we will definitely use Lake District Lodge holidays again and have no hesitation in recommending Lily Tarn.

Lovely stay

Lily Tarn Lodge was perfect for our stay. The bedrooms, bathroom and living area were extremely clean. However, the glasses and kitchen wear needed to be cleaned before we could use them. The surrounding area was quiet and we had a lovely stay even when the weather spoilt our plans.

Review date: 07th June 2019

Thank you for your review, Rachel and it is pleasing to hear you enjoyed your stay. This is a lovely place to relax and unwind. An excellent location for an unforgettable holiday in the Lakes. Noting the kitchen utensils were not as clean as expected we have kindly reminded the housekeepers to check in future. We can only apologise that a few items had been overlooked. Despite this we are delighted to hear the lodge was perfect for you - and we hope you enjoyed the hot tub.
