We've visited here for the past 5 years and its just the best location for a quiet and relaxing family holiday. Right on the side of the lake and with views that never disappoint regardless of the weather.

This time we stayed in the Broadness Lodge (sleeps 6 and one of the more updated lodges). This lodge is as close to the lake as you can get and right on the edge of the park. Everything was ready on arrival and the lodge was clean and comfortable.

Park team have always been great.

A couple of tips
- Fishing isn't that good on-site unless you can get a boat. The lake is shallow around the edges (around .5m) and you can't practically get out to the deeper water.  
- The 'named' lodges seem to be more modern and generally better all around e.g. Broadness and Mockerin. 
- The Sun Inn in Bassenthwaite is good. In Keswick - The Round burger restaurant is cracking - can't book but worth the wait.
- Lodges we've stayed in always have basic surface cleaner, dishwasher tabs and clothes.
- If you can get one with a hot tub - honestly it's worth it to sit out and enjoy the views in a warm tub after a long walk.
- If you are planning on doing walks then consider joining the National Trust as many of the car parks are run by them and you get free parking as a member. Otherwise, you can expect a day rate of at least £8.50 (minimum change is £5 for a couple of hours).  Most car parks have card readers but don't rely on using the apps as phone reception can be hit or miss in the more remote car parks.

5th Year visting and still the best location

I cannot rave about this stay enough. Our lodge was absolutely beautiful, clean, with everything we could possibly need. The welcome gifts were so so thoughtful as well. The view was stunning. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Close enough to some lovely dog friendly pubs within in a 5 minute drive. Lovely place to walk and chill. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. The most relaxed I’ve been in a long time.

Wow!! Just the most fantastic stay!!

What a place! Dog friendly lakeside lodge in the middle of Bassenthwaite close to Keswick, Lake District, UK. Gorgeous views throughout, private hot tub and just what you need for a relaxed UK getaway with your doggies! 1 week with no worries, all your necessary amenities close by, wasn’t long enough. I will be returning, many thanks guys!

THE BEST DOF FRIENDLY LAKESIDE LODGE!

Beautiful lodge in a perfect setting. Everything appeared brand new. It has everything you need and then some! Exceptionally clean and tidy.  Cannot fault it at all. Milk in the fridge, tea/coffee starter pack, together with drinks and snacks. What more could you ask for! The staff both on the telephone and on site are really friendly and nothing is any bother. There's even a small play area for the little ones on site, dvds available to loan from reception. They really do cater for all your needs. We had a fantastic holiday (despite storms and power cuts!). Cannot wait to visit again. One of the best lodges/sites I've been on in over 30 years of visiting the Lakes. Thank you for a lovely holiday! Looking forward to booking with you again!

Scarness lodge - fantastic!

Absolutely beautiful! We stayed here for a long weekend to celebrate my dads 60th birthday. I had let the staff know before hand and asked if there was anything they could do to decorate the lodge. When we arrived they had put balloons and banners up, there were bottles of beer, a bottle of Prosecco, free snacks and a little game to play. It helped make the weekend that much more special. The lodge was immaculate and the hot tub so well maintained with incredible views. The lodge is so well equipped. We stayed in the absolute pet lodge number 53. 
We will definitely be coming back here for family holidays. Thank you for an amazing weekend.

Beautiful lodges and area

Fantastic stay in the Hardknot lodge. We arrived about 8pm and we’re surprised when someone came round to the lodge to make sure we had got here ok and to show us how to work the hot tub- we’ve never had this at other sites and it was very much appreciated. The lodge itself was immaculate inside, had everything we needed! When we noticed we didn’t have a chopping board a lovely lady at Reception got us one. We had issues with our door and cooker and someone came over within 10 minutes to help, honestly can’t fault the service here. The bed were very comfortable and surprisingly big! Plenty of storage inside the lodge too. Towels provided were big and very soft. The site itself is so picturesque, you could be anywhere in the world! The location provides a fantastic base to explore the lakes and there are some lovely local walks too. Only thing we could have asked for is maybe some some inductions as to how to work the gas oven as we were quite unsure, it would have saved us having to call someone out to help after our long journey. Overall this is by far the best site we have stayed at in terms of lodge holidays and we would definitely return and recommend to everyone! Thank you!

Fantastic stay- thank you!

This place is just so peaceful lodge has everything you need for your stay and the views are just amazing. The added bonus is the large field for our dog which he just loves. Cant wait for next year to return. Keep up the good work Chris and your team.

Another great stay

Brilliant lodges and spectacular views, couldn't ask for more Bottle of prosecco,2 bottles of beer,dog treats,milk in the fridge, the lot,hot tub best we have ever been in,views out of this world and reception perfect,thanks so much,highly recommend 

Outstanding 

Loved the peacefulness here and the hot tub with views of the lake and mountains.
Chris greeted us on arrival - so warm and friendly and loved our 2 boxers!
Pristine Lodge, White towels and bedding, welcome gift and milk in fridge. Bed super comfy.
I took lots of things I didn't need to ( cleaning stuff, dishwasher tablets etc. )
Great field for letting the dogs burn off energy. Secluded and actually on the lake.  Next time we visit will take our paddleboards.
Thoroughly recommend hands down. Great base and a short drive from Keswick ( 5 mins ).
Booked through Hoseasons last minute and everything was exceptional. Thankyou for a much needed weekend away x

Fabulous in every way!

My family & I spent Christmas & my 40th birthday at the Dower House & it was a wonderful stay. The pictures on the website don’t compare to being in the house. It’s really impressive. 
On arrival we were given lots of treats such as Prosecco, beer & snacks & even birthday banners & balloons. There was a Christmas tree in the main living area & the dining room was set for Christmas, with another Christmas tree! 
The pool table was a real bonus, as was the wood burner & hot tub. 
The converted barn house next door to Dower house is called ‘The Croft’ & no one had rented this out for Christmas - so the Dower house felt even more private/secluded, whilst we were there. 
There was plenty of space for everyone (10 of us stayed on the evening of my birthday). 
The beautiful lake is within walking distance & can be seen from some of the rooms. 
Keswick is around 10/15 mins drive & Cockermouth around 20 Mins.
I would love to stay here again one day.
