Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
Will definitely be back.
Accommodation just can't be faulted spotlessly clean and everything I needed so cosy what more can I say beautiful.

"Lodge was very big and had lots of facilities to enhance the stay, such as large fridge freezer and washing machine."
Entrance hall makes a great storage for your costs and shoes and other bits without it spilling into the lodge. TV, electric fire and the heating system meant we enjoyed the cold frosty night in the living room. The dining table becoming games table was also a great addition for some fun and a game of pool with my sun.
The negative though came from the bed. The mattress was not comfortable to sleep on, woke up several times during the night. Had to sleep in the single bed which still wasn’t very comfortable but meant didn’t disturb my partner

"Had an amazing week here in October 2024 with our 2 dogs."
The lodge was immaculate and surprisingly easy to find using the map provided. Very scenic & an ideal place to walk our pooches. Lots of places to visit nearby too. The on site resteraunt was lovely. We were even treated to a showing of the northern lights during our visit. Our only issue was the WIFI - I'm sure I received an email with the password but couldn't find it & the only form of contact was an emergencies only number. The dining/pool/ping pong table (although a bit wobbly) was a brilliant way to pass the time on a rainy day. I have already passed the lodge information on to a couple of friends who are considering booking.

"No mirror in bedrooms for doing hair."
Keysafe faulty, decking very slippery when wet. A lot of traffic noise from behind lodge, but got use to.
Adequate facilities and clean.

"Really nice property!"
We booked this for the games table and it was an ideal asset to have for family fun.
The property was tidy, as described in the photos with plenty of additionally tools you might need (torches, blankets etc etc) Area was nice as well, not a huge amount of amenities on site but a lot of amenities close by and places to visit. Very good if you are bringing a dog also.
Only small recommendation would be to include a welcome pack. we had expected even just a couple of coffee sachets and tea bags for when we arrived, would have been a nice touch.

"We were very upset that the oven was filthy and hadn't been cleaned for a very long time."
The swing bin was filthy also. The toilet seat needs maintenance and the heating problem was annoying.

"Restaurant had decided not to serve food on Sunday evening and closed the bar at 5pm."
refuse bins had been moved to a mucky yard with mostly overfilled bins. the toilet seats in the lodge were both loose, no welcome pack,even the cruet was empty. the biggest problem was my 2 year old granddaughter finding a box of assorted tablets including heart tablets and pain killers down the side of the sofa, that could have been very nasty! i,ve sent you these comments before, This is not up to your usual standard.

"A fantastic cabin superbly equiped,we had a minor issue on arrival that was sorted out instantly with one phone call."
The cabin was excellent with everything in it that a michelin star chef would have been happy to use. The owner supplied games and even a pool table and excellent wifi. I cant recomend highly enough.

"Beautiful lodge with south facing decking, dish washer with dish washer tablets provided, washer/dryer, iron and ironing board."
2 bathrooms were a bonus, ample kitchen space, recliner leather chair, excellent wifi. The mattress on the double bed was so comfortable. It has an onsite bar and restaurant overlooking the lake with a small beach for the kids. 10 minutes drive to Morcambe bay and the little park. Carnforth 5 minutes drive to Aldi or Tesco. The railway is a must to see the museum where brief encounter was filmed. Lots of shops in Morcambe with a nice indoor market (the lamb and mint pies are the best pies we've had). Only 23 minutes to the Lakes district, (we especially love Ambleside). The farm shop a mile away is worth the visit, lots to do for the kids and lovely food in the cafe. We will definitely be returning, it felt like home, thank you for letting us stay, we thoroughly enjoyed it ☺

"Inside the property is nicely decorated and furnished, outside it’s looking a little tired, needs a good jet wash and painting, also it would be nice to have bins for recycling and general waste, solar lights need replacing too, lakeside is a beautiful place to stay, and so many places to visit within a 45 minutes drive."

"The lodge is lovely, very modern and in a great position."
Great furniture and facilities.
A few things that could be improved: no light bulb in the lamp in the lounge and neither lamps in the main bedroom worked. A mirror in each of the bedrooms would've been a bonus. The bed in the main bedroom is VERY firm, could benefit from a mattress topper. WiFi service was intermittent and didn't work the first night. Would be great to see the decking restained and some outdoor dining furniture so you could eat outdoors.

"A nice property looking a bit tired in places but a comfortable stay, had problems locking the door as the door had dropped slightly so used the patio doors for the rest of the holiday."
The other problem was no Wi-Fi , there was private Wi-Fi but the owners didn’t share the password which was unfortunate
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback.
After contacting me directly shortly after you arrived regarding the door lock I find it disappointing that you didn’t accept the offer of further assistance and instead have chosen to endure the issue and include it in your comments.
The Wi-Fi code is available for guests, the password is on the router, however, I appreciate that this may not be obvious so I will endeavour to update the welcome folder to include it.

"Lovely comfortable, clean lodge and very relaxing."
The games table was a bonus. The park itself was clean and lovely to walk around with our dog. Friendly staff at the restaurant/bar.
The only issue we had was not enough cookware for the microwave.
Dear Mrs J (surname omitted for privacy)
Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback.
I appreciate you highlighting the microwave cookware shortage, it’s not something I had previously considered. I will be adding suitable containers to the kitchen equipment at the first opportunity.

"The lodge was very clean and fresh and all furnishings were comfortable and in very good condition."
The rooms were very spacious and the kitchen was lovely with plenty of crockery and utensils. The utility room is a bonus for dog owners, ours slept in there and it was a great space to keep dog paraphernalia.
The park is very well kept. We used the swimming pool and again it was very clean. It is quite small and got busy in the adults only morning session. No changing rooms just shower cubicles and toilets.
The restaurant opening times were very random so I advise to check with restaurant and book because opening times varied from day to day. Service not great but food was delicious. There is no TV in the twin room contrary to the advert at time when I booked. Good WiFi.
We enjoyed our stay and would book the exact same lodge again.
Dear Mrs D, (surname omitted for privacy)
thank you so much for taking the time to write such a constructive review.
I must apologise, that, contrary to the listing when you booked there was no television provided in the twin bedroom. This was an error in the original listing and an oversight on my part that it was not corrected. I hope that it didn’t have a significant impact on your stay.
With regards to the on-site restaurant, I am aware of all the issues you have raised. As an owner I have clearly communicated the same complaints to the park management.
I will be addressing the issue again and your comments will be passed on.
I have endeavoured to provide current information about restaurant opening and bookings within the welcome folder and I will continue to communicate with the park management to improve this facility.

The property
Located on South Lakeland Leisure Village in Warton, Lancashire, is this attractive, single-storey lodge, 67 Gressingham.
Resting near a peaceful lake and enjoying a decked area to unwind with your family and friends, this two-bedroom lodge makes a wonderful escape to Lancashire.
On arrival, park up in the off-road parking space before stepping into your holiday home, where you will find a washer/dryer to keep your wardrobe fresh.
To the left, discover the open-plan living space; here you can kick back and relax on the sofa with a cup of tea and escape into a good book or flicker through the TV for a film night.
The contemporary kitchen area hosts an electric oven and gas hob to prepare mouth-watering dishes, which can be enjoyed at the dining table for four.
Throw open the patio doors to soak in the sun on the decked area and why not uncork a bottle of wine to savour a glass?
As the sun begins to set, retire inside and locate the bathroom to indulge in a bubble-bath or discover the double bedroom with an en-suite shower room for a hot rinse.
There is also a twin bedroom with ample storage, as well as a TV for a movie beneath the covers.
Awaken with a steaming cup of coffee out of the decking; afterwards a short stroll will lead you to Waters Edge Restaurant for home-cooked meals.
