"Excellent affordable"
Robert - Oct 2024
"Due to time of year, the lodge was very good value. Due to our struggles with our old dog slipping and falling on the wood style floor we did consider leaving after the 1st night but persevered and enjoyed our walks in the beautiful location. The park would suit younger dogs and keen walkers but unfortunately didn't suit our needs currently."

"Great lodge ideal for a couple . Clean on arrival and nice touch with tea coffee and milk provided. Only criticism was the heating , no instructions on how the radiators worked. Switched on but nothing happened. Fire in main room worked so we just used that."

Verified Guest - Jun 2024
"Great holiday -Lodge is well equipped but does need a freshen up in places.I am no eco warrior but a recycling bin in the lodge would be goodSmall 2nd bedroom - beds 6 inches apart but did not detract from the stay Lack of privacy due to the decking areas all facing each other"

"Beautiful lodge and surrounding setting. Hot tub is amazing after a day of walking and visiting surrounding areas.The lodge is amazing as a couple for time away. The only downside in my opinion is there is not a dishwasher."

"Absolutely loved this lodge. We have been a few times to Crake Valley and it never disappoints. Its a lovely site, peaceful, well kept, comfortable and beautiful surroundings. The thoughtful additions when we arrived at the lodge, ie: hot beverages, shampoo&conditioner, oven gloves & dishwasher items were a lovely surprise. Thank you so much for such a fantastic weekend. We will be back again ????x"

"On the surface the lodge appeared to be everything we expected. However, on closer inspection we found many issues. Many of these issues were raised by previous occupants of The Cedars, yet, had not been rectified:Balcony, table and chairs were not prepared - we had to get cleaning ourselves, including sorting out the marked and greasy windows. The hairdryer in the main bedroom was faulty and cut out and it had no PAT test certificate. There were not 4 of each item in the crockery. The plates and bowls were not a set - just random plates.A broken wine glass was left in the cupboard and there was no set of 4. And not enough for 4 people. The gravel steps need maintenance as the steps, especially at the top, are dangerous and not fit for purpose. The string on the kitchen blind is broken. The upstairs sliding bedroom door does not lock. All these issues are maintenance issues - cleaning was spot on! We met no staff on our visit other than Pamela who came to bring us 2 loo rolls. Our exit and entrance to the lodge had to be via the gate at the back due to the dangerous front steps. This meant disturbing other hot tub users as we passed by - a little embarrassing. We would love to book again as we did have a super time, although we have reservations due to the neglect of the lodges. We feel that we only echo other guests whose complaints have fallen on deaf ears. There was one kind act by management when they brought us a fan due to the upstairs room being very hot. The fan, however, clanked as it spun and seemed dangerous. Get your act together guys - let maintenance be a top priority!"

"Lovely location in a beautiful setting, the arrival text message sent the day before gave everything you needed to know. Premises is perfectly appointed and was spotless. Only a couple of things - path needs sorting, its not good if unsteady on your feet as the shale path slippery, and moves under foot. A couple of low branches from the tree next to the building are rubbing on the roof, sounds like its gonna come through when the wind blowing. Overall perfect for a break and within a half hour drive of all the amenities the lakes have to offer"

"Crake Valley is in a great location with easy access for walking and having fun on the water. The accommodation is very good and the lodges are well equipped with everything included for your stay. Coniston and Ulverston are within 20 minutes drive and Ulverston having supermarkets for your everyday needs."
