Great location
Could have been cleaned a little better in places. The drawers in the kitchen needed fixing but we’re still workable
Very comfortable and spacious would go back.

We had a nice stay at Stickle Ghyll Lodge but there are some improvements that need to be made. The decking looks run down and could do with a clean / paint. The sofas are very hard and uncomfortable, these could do with replacing and the drawers in the kitchen are stiff / hard to open and close. The path leading up to the lodge (just down from the steps) was very muddy which was a pain. Some gravel would be useful here to stop shoes getting dirty before entering the lodge.

Other than these things, the lodge is great. It has everything you need, the views from outside are brilliant and the hot tub is an added luxury. We would stay here again but a few small changes would make a massive difference.

Thank you for leaving a review, Ben. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and would recommend to others. We note and shall advise the owners of the further comments you have kindly raised, thank you for these. Any maintenance on the decking is usually carried out in the quieter months due to the amount of guests staying through summer and it is not always practical to be addressing these then. The paths outside the lodge are the responsibility of the park and we will pass on your comments to the park management for their consideration. We are delighted that you otherwise found it a great lodge and location. Stickle Ghyll is a popular place to stay and we really hope that you return again soon.

Overall, had a great stay. Location great, views beautiful. Great hot tub and spacious lodge/rooms with good storage. General maintenance needs attention-cupboard doors loose and difficult to open some, draining board and bucket to wash dishes in need bleached as grubby and oily. Shower sealer all mouldy and needs replaced. Smell of damp/drainage smell coming from main bathroom on the corridor. Sofa could do with being replaced or cleaned. Could do with more forks and glasses. One of the bathroom bins hadn't been emptied which likely mistakenly forgotten but not ideal.
A few easy fixes and a bit of attention to some areas could make lodge appearance so much better.

All in all we had a very good holiday only one thing toilet in corridor had a smell like drains. That apart can’t fault the place and would come back again.

Good:
A modern, clean and very well equipped kitchen
Excellent situation in the holiday park with peaceful and beautiful views
Holiday park just a short drive away from both Ambleside and Windermere but not walking distance (for us with children)
Excellent customer service - needed to call them twice and they were very responsive and attended immediately
Good heating

Room for improvement:
A bit rough round the edges
Decking area could do with power washing - very slippery and a bit grimy
Mild Drainage/plumbing smell in bathrooms
Furnishings in living room are a bit grubby (sofa could do with replacing)
Hot tub cover blocks view when hot tub in use but can but pulled off and moved out of the way with a bit of effort!
WiFi temperamental

Needs better instructions to lodge within the park ie “8a Lake View” as opposed to the lodge name

All this being said, we would return again and had a wonderful time

Thank you for your review, Victoria and bringing a few things to our attention. We are pleased to say that we have amended the lodge directions to make these clearer for guests, and these can be seen in your arrival information. Your comments relating to the condition of the lodge and hot tub have been passed on to the owners and we shall be following these up with them in due course. The wifi is provided by the park and something outside of our control as booking agents. We do advise guests that it can be temperamental and can only really be used for checking emails, nevertheless, we will pass on your comments to the park management for their consideration. Thank you for letting us know of your lodge experience and please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. Given all you have said we were pleased to read your kind words and delighted to hear you had a wonderful time and would return. Stickle Ghyll has fabulous lake views and on a glorious sunny day, where could be better? We do hope you will return again soon and look forward to welcoming you.
