• "Fantastic, well equipped and comfortable lodge which our family of 4 all felt very happy to stay in for 3 nights in February 2025."

  It was warm, clean and felt like a home from home straight away. The icing on the cake for us was the hot tub. Despite being only a few degrees outside, it was always fun to chill out in there. The location is superb and only 5 minutes walk to all of the amenities of Bowness, yet still very quite during the day and night. Highly recommended. Would love to stay again.

  The lodge was equipped with everything we needed and more. Hot tub is a lovely bonus at the end of the day. Fantastic location for getting out and about in Bowness on Windermere without using the car. Would definitely return in the future.

• "We arrived at the Lodge on 22nd December 2024, We was absolutely thrilled to bits as they had put up a beautiful Christmas tree, also we were left a bottle of peoseco and chocolates with a Christmas card."

  The lodge was beautiful and very very clean (I am very fussy with cleanliness and have OCD) but this lodge was exceptionally clean. There was everything we needed for cooking. Bed was comfy, Hot tub was great, the location of the lodge was perfect. Our dog was happy as she could wander on the decking and have a nosey at people walking past without getting out as it secure with a gate. Would highly recommend this lodge and we will definitely be coming back. Hopefully we can book this lodge again for next year. No complaints at all, it was perfect. Thank-you

  Perfect location short walk to Bowness shops and restaurants. Other attractions easily reached by car and boat. Park facilities good handy little shop and coffee area. Bar and restaurant area very nice not to noisy comfortable and good food at a reasonable price, Only issue was the WiFi managed to connect to lodge WiFi but unable to connect to the internet and could not connect to park internet in the lodge only in the Clubhouse. The directions we were sent were incorrect said to exit M6 at junction 26 it should read junction 36 Also barrier code given was wrong not that it caused a problem we were just given the correct code by reception Al in all a wonderful week thank you we hope to return next year

  Once all sorted by 9pm, we had 2 kids with us so we finically were able to make some food and eat, the rest of the holiday was great, hot tub was lovely, it was just a shame to arrive to a dirty lodge and kept been told I’d be phoned back, I had to phone 3 times to find out what was happening and the number in the book in the lodge was for the wrong night warden, he was based at the other park up the road.

  Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear of how your holiday started. We know the owners and the cleaners are terribly sorry the clean was missed. Having said that, it is wonderful to hear you went on to have a fantastic stay and enjoyed everything Buttermere had to offer. We do hope you will return. Property Owner

  The style, decor and layout was perfect. All the facilities provided was great also . The only negative feedback I could give that there was some cobwebs and spiders that the cleaners had missed. Also a light suggest ..we actually put the 2 single beds together in the back room as we have a king bed at home and found the double to be a bit small. The lay out of the back room seemed to have more space and with the 2 beds together makes more like a superking and was still plenty of room ! Honestly was a great lodge and the only thing I would have changed was a bigger and bed .. such a great location on site and in bowness, was great to walk to places .

  I had to sleep on the sofa while my partner and toddler shared one small single bed. The flooring in both en-suite and bedroom were damp and the smell was horrific. With my son having asthma this has meant he has returned with a new outbreak. A man attended the property each morning to attend to the hot tub without our knowledge. With the main bedroom being directly beside the hot tub I was disgusted when he appeared at the window while I was changing both myself and toddler. The service after has been horrific and would never use this company or lodge again

  Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear you did enjoy your stay in Butteremere Lodge. The property has been checked and no areas of damp or a smell was located and is this something that has not been reported in the past. We are sorry to hear some dog mess was missed, the owner has confirmed he did clean the decking before and after your stay and removed all traces.

  We found the lodge to be very comfortable and modern. Some TlC might be needed in some areas but certainly no worse than what you’d probably need to do in your own home. Kitchen was well equipped, lounge area comfortable and beds we found to be comfy and warm (some staining on quilts we noticed when stripping the beds on departure day but that can easily be resolved). The location of the lodge was perfect (in a quiet little cul-de-sac and pretty close to the main entrance. We’ve been to the lakes on a number of occasions but this time we were planning on staying in and around Bowness/Windermere and we didn’t use the car once which suited our two cockerpoos perfectly! Fallbarrow is one of the nicest, quietest sites we’ve stayed at and would definitely recommend due to its prime location. Lovely walks around the site and being able to walk along lake Windermere was perfect. I highly recommend Buttermere Lodge and Fallbarrow Park.

  The hot tub was fanstastic and welcomed after a full days walk. Great facilities within the lodge and is clean. Definitely value for money. Beds very comfortable. Some areas could do with a little modernisation but overall we couldn't fault it. We loved it that much we have booked the same lodge next year. This is our second time at Fallbarrow and it is a great location in the lakes. Although it is situated in Bowness, the park itself is quiet and we spent days / evenings sat by the Lake whilst our child went swimming... there are lots of shops, restaurants and bars nearby you can eat out, some nights we cooked in and we had a takeaway. Defo recommend Vinegar Jones for a fish and rag pudding takeaway and Bodega if you like tapas.

  We enjoyed using the hot tub and facilities on site. The site WiFi is poor and so is the tv reception in the lodge but this is only a small detail for us. We were unable to book a table for a meal, instead you just turn up and hope for the best. We decided not to bother as the menu was very limited and expensive for what it was. You are in walking distance to Bowerness so we ate out locally instead, with lots of different places to choose from. This is the second time we stayed on site here but our first time using Lake District lodge holidays, we were meant to stay last year but due to lock down we were able to cancel and got a refund so we decided to book again with you. We’d definitely consider this lodge again if we were to visit again but the prices would need to drop back down to the same price we paid this time as they have gone up considerably.

• "This lodge is ideally situated for exploring the lakes and is a great place to base yourself."

  The lodge is beautiful, modern and very clean and loved that the heating was on when we arrived which made it nice and cosy. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could need. I loved that it had a washing machine which was used only when we got out the hot tub to rinse and spin our swim wear. There is a clothes dryer/clothes horse to put your wet clothes on too and it soon dried in the warm lodge. The hot tub was beautiful and very welcome after a long day of walking in the hills and around the lakes. We will definitely be back again to this lodge, perfect stay and very relaxing.

• "Stayed at the Buttermere Lodge for the 2nd year running and this time we stayed on dates 16th September 2019 until 23rd September 2019 and we couldn't have picked a better week for the weather."

  The location of the Buttermere Lodge is a stones throw away from the Centre of Bowness which is ideal. When we arrived the lodge was as we remembered but on settling in to the lodge on our first day we noticed it wasn't as clean as we thought. We found a stain on the carpet near the bathroom door, toe-nail clippings in the sitting room, splash marks up the main doors and the kitchen cupboard doors and it was very dusty around the beds and this was only noticed when we nudged the bed slightly and it appeared to have loads of fluff. I would say though, that once we noticed this, we contacted Lake District Lodge Holidays and within an hour, the cleaner was there to give it a thorough clean and we were very happy with the lodge moving forward so the service was second to none. I think the lodge is starting to see small signs of wear and tear wit ha lot of spiders webs which I think should be cleaned for the arrival of each customer and the lodge is expensive having paid nearly What did you enjoy most about your stay?

  Thanks for writing a review of your latest stay at Buttermere Lodge, Gary. We were sorry you had a couple of cleanliness issues and we were pleased to get these attended to promptly. The cleaners who prepare the lodge have been reminded of their responsibilities relating to this. The owners take great pride in the lodge and are always improving it's standard where they are able. There has been a new bathroom installed recently and the lodge has had the outside rails and spindles stained. As a returning guest you got a significant discount which reduced the price to well below what you have suggested above. Buttermere Lodge is very popular with guests all year round and a lovely place to stay especially with it's relaxing outside hot tub. Property Owner

• "Loved Buttermere lodge, very clean and comfortable and fantastic location."

  Handy for walking into Bowness and a great base for exploring the Lakes. We used the bar twice - played Bingo with the kids and used the arcade which they loved. Kettle was broken but replaced the next day and needed an airer to hang wet washing on which was provided the next day also - great service. We loved the hot tub - especially the kids. And it was so nice walking the dog round the park and down to the lake - stunning views of Windermere. Everyone very friendly and helpful, would definitely return and recommend to family and friends. We were lucky with the weather and only had 1 day of rain, so we went swimming that day to Choices up the road which was included in the lodge price. Thanks for the wine What did you enjoy most about your stay? Lovely clean and comfortable lodge and location. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Tree Trop Trek at Brockholes - great fun and loved the Zip wire.

  Thank you for the review, Louise. We note and apologise that your stay at Buttermere Lodge fell short to your previous stays with us. This is certainly not something we like to hear. Had you made us aware soon after arriving, or even during your stay, we would have rectified these issues for you. As such we can only apologise for the inconvenience caused and will do all we can to ensure something similar does not happen in the future. We were also sorry to hear of your experience with park reception, although as independent booking agents we have no control over how the Park is managed. Having said that we will pass on your comments to the Park management for their reference and we would like to think it was a one off. As a company our aim is for guests to have an enjoyable stay and it is disappointing to hear when something is not quite right. Whilst we realise Buttermere Lodge is perhaps not for you, and we are sorry, for many this lodge is the ideal place to stay and perfect for families or couples looking for a break in the Lakes.

• "Stayed at Buttermere Lodge in Bowness on the 15th - 18th June 2018 with my wife and 2 small dogs and yet the weather was not the best it didn't stop us having a wonderful time in the lakes."

  Having been to Bowness a number of times, I have always wanted to stay in Fallbarrow Park and when this came up and we arrived at the lodge, we couldn't be more surprised on how great the lodge was - Easy Check in at reception, straight to the lodge which was no more than 100 yards away and when we opened the door it was stunning. Clean throughout, very spacious and the added bonus of the hot tub. Although the weather wasn't great, it came down to the location as the lodge was a 2 minute walk in to Bowness where all the action is. I would definitely recommend this lodge to anyone wanting to come to the lakes in the summer or winter as it is perfect lodge to stay at with a small family and ideally located for all bars, shops and restaurants. What did you enjoy most about your stay? How great the lodge was and its location. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? To do a bit research on what you can do when you get to the lakes - few great walks around windermere and up to Ambleside.

• "Well what can we say."

  ........ on arrival the whole lodge was immaculate inside and out. This has got to be the nicest lodge we have ever stayed in (and we've stayed in a few in fallbarrow over the last 10 years). The kitchen was well equipped and everything in working order including a dishwasher and a washing machine which was really handy. Two really good sized bedrooms, one twin and one double (with en suite ) which were both really comfortable and agood size family bathroom with bath. The hot tub was the added bonus to soothe those aching muscles. The lodge was a stones throw away from the complex bar, children's park and on site shop/cafe which has all of the essentials. Already booked to come back in march. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Spending quality family time in a stunning lodge in one of the most beautiful places in the world. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? a trip on the boats around the lake

• "Very impressed upon arrival, a complimentary bottle of wine was a lovely touch!"

  Very impressed with the cleanliness and presentation 10/10. A bit on the pricey side however we were happy and more than impressed with the lodge and location. The only downside was the bed, it was very small. I wouldn't say myself and partner are tall at all, we woke in the night with our feet sticking out of the bottom and kept waking each other in the night with there not being much room, sadly we left a night early due to the bed as we couldn't sleep well at all. The rest of the facilities were fantastic just a shame about the bed ! Fallbarrow park is a beautiful location to stay i would definitely come again. Thank you for having us, it was a lovely break :) What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Have a pint at the ship inn

  Thank you for your review, Emma. We were sorry to read your comments about the bed and that you decided to leave early as a result. The bed is a standard 4 foot 6 inch double and it is the first time we have received such comments. That apart it was good to hear that everything else about your stay at Buttermere Lodge was to your satisfaction. The lodge is hugely popular with guests and is one of only two lodges at Fallbarrow Park with a private hot tub and is good value considering this, it's location and quality of accommodation.

The park itself that Buttermere Lodge is on has good facilities with play park, pub/restaurant and shop.. The lodge was a home from home and the hot tub was a great added extra.. We will definitely be returning, great value for money stay and would recommend to family & friends..

• "We spent a lovely few days in this lodge."

  Weather was typical lake district weather (wet!) but this just let us enjoy the lodge that bit more. My 15 year old daughter especially loved the hot tub and was in it every night. The fact that it was dog friendly was a big plus factor for us and our Lab enjoyed it as much as we did. We had no heating the second day (gas cylinder had ran out) and even though it was out of office hours there was a quick response from the Lodge agency and the matter was sorted promptly. Really lovely lodge in central location, would certainly return again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Central location, comfortable surroundings, everything to hand. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Brockhole is great for all ages, whatever the weather.

• "Fantastic log cabin just outside the centre of Bowness."

  The accommodation is to a really high standard and the hot tub is a nice treat. The weather wasn't great for our stay but Bowness is in walking distance and the cabin is so comfortable it was nice just to relax and stay in watching the rain! There is a bar, restaurant and deli on the holiday park. Despite the warning about mobile reception, we didn't have any problems with O2. The free wifi however only seemed to be for 30mins per day. We would definitely return again and hope for better weather!

  Thank you for writing a review of your recent stay at Buttermere Lodge. We were delighted to hear that you enjoyed your time there (despite the weather). The lodge has very quickly become a firm favourite with guests as it is spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Not forgetting the lovely hot tub too! We look forward to you returning very soon. Property Owner
