“Great lodge.”

Owners have thought of everything. Fully equipped and loved how much they catered for dogs. Included bowls and treats etc. Lodge was lovely and clean when we arrived. Only thing we found was the toilets didn’t flush the best but unsure if that is a site thing rather than just the lodge. Would stay again.

- Debra, August 2024

Thanks so much for your feedback. The water pressure can be an issue on the park, but we will get a plumber to look at the flush again anyway, so thanks for letting us know ! hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner

Tanya July 2024

“We would recommend this gorgeous lodge and resort for any family.”

We truely had a magical time and made lots of beautiful memories. The lodge itself was lovely and relaxing. We were there when it was very sunny so to have decking in the shade was a comfort to us. My only recommendations would be blankets as additional snuggle comfort but that was our preference. There was also no BBQ drum albeit it didn’t impact. Overall fantastic

- Tanya, July 2024

Thank you for your feedback, so glad you had a special time at White Cross Bay, we look forward to welcoming you back ! Property Owner
Diljit May 2024

“The holiday cottage was generally nice the only disappointments were that cleanliness fell quite below standards ie there were dirty seat covers for the dinning table, chairs one bath towel was very dirty and the supply of towels for a family of 5 for four days was very very short indeed and there were quite a few cobb webbs on the lights on the bedrooms ceilings.”

- Diljit, May 2024

- Tony, April 2024

Lesley December 2023

“On suite toilet does not flush properly , we had to fill a bucket of water to pour it down the toilet to flush it .”

The extractor fan over the oven had no bottom grill on it and was full of spider webs . The good side, when we arrived the lodge was lovely and warm and a nice welcoming light was on . The xmas tree was a lovely touch too .

- Lesley, December 2023
Janine November 2023

“Such a beautiful lodge, had everything we needed.”

This was our first time at Lakeshaven and I can’t wait to go back. Surrounded one side with trees made it feel so cosy. Inside was very clean and tidy, beautifully decorated.

- Janine, November 2023
Amie October 2023

“A good sized, clean, well equipped lodge in a lovely, wooded part of the park.”

It was warm and there was plenty of hot water. It does smell quite ‘doggy’ so great for pets but may need to avoid if you have allergies. The toilet in the master en-suite does not flush properly & the shower head keeps slipping down so difficult to shower under. Needs a new tin opener & some sharper knives, had to hack the vegetables apart when cooking

- Amie, October 2023
Tony September 2023

“First class will be back soon”

- Tony, September 2023
Lydia September 2023

“Lovely lodge.”

Felt like you were in a tree house Very clean and cosy, the only thing would be that the two twin beds were not comfy, but everything else was great!

- Lydia, September 2023
James August 2023

“The accommodation was great, we loved the kitchen and living area setup, meant I could still be part of the family fun while cooking and washing up.”

The facilities at Park Dean like the pool and steam rooms are kept to a good standard and the location is great for getting into all of the Lake District. The only downside was the single bed mattresses are well past their best, really uncomfortable to sleep on and my teenage daughter ended up sharing with her brother on one of the doubles because she slept so badly. We’d highly recommend these mattresses are replaced ASAP.

- James, August 2023
Brian July 2023

“The location was perfect under the canopy of trees, very cosy inside we had a great time.”

Although the first week of school holidays we were well away from the crowds. Second time at White Cross and are back again At Christmas

- Brian, July 2023
Craig April 2023

“The cottage was everything and more than we expected.”

The location was perfect for our little break, the cleanliness was immaculate the ease of check in and out was seamless and we will definitely be staying again

- Craig, April 2023

Thank you for your kind comments. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your break. We hope to welcome you back. Property Owner
Philip April 2023

“Beautiful lodge, location in the park was great couldn’t fault the cleanliness and what was provided.”

Will definitely be returning at sometime in the near future. Only minor point was that the toilet in the on suite bathroom didn’t flush great, but even if not fixed it wouldn’t stop me from booking again.

- Philip, April 2023
Hayley October 2022

“The home was fine, just a couple of points there was only 2 toilet rolls supplied, the hot tap in the bath wouldn’t work unless you had it on really slow (took an age to fill the bath).”

No bags left to put the laundry in when beds stripped etc

- Hayley, October 2022

Thank you for taking the time to submit your valued feedback. We are grateful to you for bringing these matters to our attention and will, of course look into the issues raised, as a matter of priority. We look forward to welcoming you back, should you decide to visit again in the future. Property Owner
Hanadi September 2022

“Everything was perfect cleaning, well equipped, location and the instructions for check in and out.”

We really enjoyed :) The only issue that u may face if you have kids and you are planning to stay more than 3 days, there is no washing machine otherwise the cottage is well prepared for kids under 2 year :) Of course will book it again… thank you

- Hanadi, September 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to hear of how much you enjoyed your stay at Lakeshaven Lodge. Thank you for your recommendation of a washing machine, not all of our properties have washing machines but there is a launderette onsite. It would be our pleasure to welcome you back again. Property Owner
Michael August 2022

“Lovely holiday property, comfortable and plenty of room for ourselves and our 3 children!”

Laura July 2022

“Lodge is lovely and provides everything you could need during your time away.”

Beds are super comfortable and towels and linens are all provided which is helpful. More attention to detail could be be taken with cleaning as there were lots of cobwebs on the inside of the window frames throughout and the oven definitely needs a deep clean! Shower heads were also bit dirty but overall the bathrooms were clean and bright. Fridge could maybe also be doing with being replaced as it didn't seem to keep things cold. Park feels like a bit of a maze when you first arrive as lodges are tucked away all over the place but once you get your bearings, it's lovely to walk around especially down at the marina.

- Laura, July 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Lakeshaven Lodge. We are sorry to hear of the issues that you found with the cleaning of the lodge. We will pass your comments onto our Housekeeping and Maintenance teams to investigate this further and to ensure that our high standards are met. We hope that you would return to stay again. Property Owner
Vickey July 2022

“The holiday park did not have the spa which is still advertised.”

Service in the clubhouse was not great as they were short staffed but all very friendly Cabin was lovely and clean Excellent location to explore the lake Windermere

- Vickey, July 2022

Thank you for taking the time to submit your valued feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the location and found the property to be clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, park staffing problems are out of our control but this is useful feedback and will hopefully be a temporary hiccup. We will look into the removal of any spa advertisements and apologise for this oversight. We look forward to welcoming you back, should you decide to visit again in the future. Property Owner
Carole June 2022

“We had wonderful time here.”

“Excellent lodge and secluded location surrounded by trees, would definitely visit again”

- Gavin, April 2022
Hamid December 2021

“Well designed lodges in a great location.”

Really enjoyed being there during mid winter. The only issue: the central heating needs to be on before arrival of guests, otherwise it is not very welcoming, arriving in a cold lodge during winter. Thanks.

- Hamid, December 2021

Thank you for the review, Mr Ghasri. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at Lakeshaven lodge although we apologise that the heating was not on for when you arrived. This is unusual as In the winter months our maintenance team, when checking the lodges on arrival day, will adjust the heating accordingly. Please accept our apologies that it appears this had been overlooked on this occasion. Property Owner
Tom November 2021

“This was a lovely cabin as it was more or a traditional cabin inside with the pine slatting.”

- Tom, November 2021
Beverley June 2021

“The position of the lodge made it feel like a tree house.”

Loved the space and facilities in the lodge and on the veranda.. Location was very good for exploring the Lake District and the bus stop right outside the gate - with the open top bus running - meant we could leave the car behind for a couple of trips. The only slight negative is the "shop" on site. There was so little to buy that we had to leave the camp to buy even basic groceries..

- Beverley, June 2021

Thank you for your wonderful review. The lodge is in an ideal location and is a fantastic base for exploring the Lake District area. The holiday park is owned and managed by Parkdean Resorts and we will pass your comments across to them. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Property Owner
Kevin June 2021

“We used Lakeshaven as a base for a weekend of motorcycle touring and what a beautiful place it was to come back to, in the quiet part of the park, very clean and spacious, I would highly recommend Lakeshaven, thanks for a great weekend.”

- Kevin, June 2021
David June 2021

“Very enjoyable 4 night stay at Lakeshaven.”

I was aware it was shaded however would have been very disappointed if not aware as the lodge gets no sun on the balcony. There were a few cleanliness issues, freezer had ice pole and breadcrumb remnants so had to clean before putting anything in, some of the crockery and cutlery were greasy as not been washed properly. Even so like I said it was a good few days break. We will be returning to the Lakes possibly to whitecross but will get a hot tub next time.

- David, June 2021

Thank you for your feedback and we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for bringing the cleanliness issues to our attention, we can confirm these have been reported back to the cleaner and we are terribly sorry this happened. We do rely on previous guests to ensure they wash and dry the crockery and cutlery before putting them away but we will be keeping a closer eye on the lodge to ensure this does not happen again. We do hope you will return but maybe to one of the other lodges on our portfolio. Property Owner
Barbara June 2021

“We really enjoyed our holiday and the staff were very helpful, however, the poor internet access in the cabin was a distinct drawback.”

The brochure in the cabin showed the wrong session time for the swimming pool, the staff said it was shown accurately on line but if you couldn't get online in the cabin that was not much use! There was good internet access in the reception, bar, restaurant area and we were allowed to use the owners lounge to make an important Teams meeting that could not be avoided.

- Barbara, June 2021
Stacie April 2021

“We rarely had hot water, even when I rang and thought it was fixed the next day when we got back after a long day out myself, partner and 3 children needed a bath to warm up and we had no hot water, the oven was on a timer as it came on in the middle of the night but then wouldn't work in the day.”

We came home on Sunday around 4pm as we were all very cold and needed hot water for a bath. I definitely will not be staying at lakehaven lodge again.

- Stacie, April 2021

We are sorry to hear you were disappointed with your stay at Lakeshaven. Whilst pleased we were able to resolve the issue when you called on the Saturday, had you let us you know you were having further problems we would have resolved these for you also. We can tell you that we have checked the lodge since your departure and no issues were found – the boiler is set on manual mode so simply needs turning on when heating is required, then to adjust temperature accordingly using the thermostat. The hot water is set on constant and when checked, the water was hot. The oven has also been checked and although it is a little complicated at first glance, it is working. We are disappointed that you chose to leave earlier than necessary as our small team are always on hand to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible. We can only say we are sorry and we do hope you will consider another stay in the future. Lakeshaven is traditional three bedroom holiday lodge, a popular place to stay in the heart of the Lakes. We hope to welcome you again soon and we are sure that you will have an enjoyable stay from the moment you arrive. Property Owner
Mrs Kathryn Dunbar Apr 2021

“This lodge provided just the right accommodation for our bubble of 4 adults and 2 children, and was very cosy and pretty well equipped.”

On arrival it instantly felt warm and welcoming, and there was a very comprehensive folder of instructions to help us get to grips with unfamiliar appliances. There was plenty of storage space and it never felt cramped. The lodge is in a quieter uphill area of the park but within easy reach of all the amenities. The park is in a great position for exploring the area and we had a delightful holiday in glorious weather. The nearby Brockholes adventure park was a great hit with the children, as well as the on-site playground and activities. Despite some lockdown restrictions being in force, the staff made it as easy as possible to order food and we were able to arrange a swimming session and an organised nerff battle activity. The only issue we had was with the travel cot, the mattress is really just a thin solid base and while we appreciate this is for safety reasons it just wasn't comfortable for our 18 month old and we had to find a solution to pad it out a bit. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The scenery What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? A walk along Loughrigg terrace overlooking Grasmere and Rydal.

- Mrs Kathryn Dunbar, Apr 2021
Ms Elizabeth Kagoda Sep 2020

“Pleasantly surprised.”

Great cabin. Not as secluded as suggested and noisy hot tub neighbors but did not detract from overall stay. Would stay again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? It was overall enjoyable. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Cross the ferry for best walk/cycle

- Ms Elizabeth Kagoda, Sep 2020
Mr John Johnson Sep 2020

“Having been told that a deep clean was required after each guest left i was surprised to find that it was not as good as it should be.”

I dropped a pen down the side of the bed, i moved the bedside table to retrieve it and found not of dirt old sweet wrappings and dust. Otherwise in the general areas the cleaning was acceptable. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? The Old Man Of Coniston

- Mr John Johnson, Sep 2020

Thank you for the review, John and we are sorry to hear you had some cleaning concerns. It is most unusual for this lodge and having spoken with the cleaners and made them aware, we are sure that no further issues will arise. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. We do hope that despite this matter you enjoyed your stay at Lakeshaven. This traditional three-bedroom pine lodge is a cosy and welcoming retreat. We hope to welcome you again soon and we are sure that everything will be to your satisfaction. Property Owner
