What guests are saying
Spacious, comfortable with great views.
I loved this lodge and will be returning in the new year or sooner if we can The only recommendations I would suggest is to get the small sofa cleaned as it is very stained and the curtain pole over the bifold door is a night mare to close we gave up in the end I would also maybe have a sign warning of the steps being very slippy when wet the beds are so comfortable!
And the lodge is immaculate the view over the lake is to die for Looking forward to our next visit
Overall the property was as described/shown in the photos.
Issues: Bi-fold doors broken mechanism - handle inside not attached, could only lock with some considerable strength from outside. Broken shards of plastic trim outside of the property. Kitchen utensils - 1 melted plastic utensil, not hygenic to use this during our stay. Twin room - right hand side bed, corner of room very dusty/dirty/mouldy. Perhaps issue wirh shower in en-suite causing this through wall? Under lounge furniture we found cereal from a previous family staying? Outside furniture cushions - stained and what could be described as chocolate stains not wiped off/clean. Fridge did not cool food adequately. It was 23-25c when staying so should not be overly strenous for the fridge, but ice forming inside suggests its stressed/old. No fans provided for hotter weather, making it very difficult to sleep comfortably. No parasol/awning to sit outside. The seating area gets a LOT of sunshine, but there is very little shade to be found out there.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review — it's genuinely useful to us. We're a family who own the lodge ourselves. A maintenance manager and cleaner look after it for us. Your review prompted us to go up today and work through everything. The bi-fold door has been repaired and working properly again. It looks like the door had dropped slightly which has now been fixed. We've seen to the corner of the twin room, it does appear the bathroom was leaking. We have fixed this and New carpets in the bedrooms have now been installed. It’s all now looking perfect again. The fridge is in good working order and well within its life, what we found was that the temperature dial inside had been turned down to a cold setting. The dial just needed + to the appropriate temp. Which is at the front of the fridge as you open the door. The kitchen utensil has been melted by a guest at some stage and wouldn't have stayed in the drawer had we known. We looked for the broken plastic trim but couldn't find anything on or around the lodge, so we suspect it's elsewhere on the park — we'll pass it to the site team. Thank you for flagging the missing parasol too. We have ordered a replacement. Awnings are not something the site allows. On fans — a fair point after a warm week. The Lakes are usually mild and hot spells rare, so we don't keep fans as standard; if you sleep better with one, it's well worth popping one in the car if guests want to bring a fan along. We have raised several of the points raised to the cleaners and maintenance team. So thank you for sharing the information. Your feedback has done us a real favour. We care a great deal about the lodge and want every guest to have a lovely stay. We hope you enjoyed the Lakes, and wish you and your family all the very best.
Had Lovley relaxing stay great views great stay great place can’t fault it superb
Thank you so much, William — what a lovely review to read. Those views never get old for us either, and we're delighted the lodge gave you a proper relaxing week. You'd be very welcome back any time.
We had an amazing stay, we come as a family of four with two young girls 5 and 3, both girls loved the lodge and it was perfect for me and my wife too.
The most amazing position and view of the lake on the site, we have stayed at Fallbarrow and white cross twice a year for the last 5 years and this is by far the best overall lodge we have stayed in. We are already looking for a return date!!
Thank you so much for this — what a lovely thing to read. We're a family who own the lodge ourselves, so hearing that your two little ones loved it as much as you did really does mean a lot. That lake view is the reason we fell for the spot in the first place, and to be told it's the best lodge you've stayed in after five years of visiting is high praise indeed. Do get in touch when you're ready to book that return — you'd be very welcome back.
Third time we have stayed in this property we have booked again whilst we were there as it is in the perfect location and a beautiful lodge nowhere better on Windermere 5 star
Thank you, Witold — and thank you for coming back to us a third time. Booking again while you were still here is about the nicest compliment we could ask for. We love that spot on Windermere as much as you do, so it's wonderful to hear it keeps drawing you back. We're already looking forward to having you with us again.
We hit really lucky with the weather and had a great stay.
Thanks!! We are yearly visitors to Loubi's Lodge and did notice that the property had been given a freshen-up and looked very good because of it. No complaints from us. All good! Everything was working and very clean. On top of all that. What a spectacular view of the lake and mountains!! We will be back next year.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your lovely review and for continuing to return to Loubi’s Lodge year after year. It really means a great deal to us. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed another great stay and that the freshen-up of the property was noticed and appreciated. We always want the lodge to feel comfortable, clean, and well cared for, so your comments are very rewarding for us. Of course, we agree — the views across the lake and mountains are something truly special, especially when the weather decides to cooperate! Thank you again for your continued support, and we very much look forward to welcoming you back again next year. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
The accommodation was very nice, comfortable and the location was excellent.
We really enjoyed our stay and felt at home. However though there was everything you need for a comfortable stay some of the equipment was in a very poor state, the pans for example we would not use and did in fact purchase new ones at Lakeland for us to use. The oven/grill also left much to be desired so we were unable to use, sticking to the microwave only. A few other details require attention too. Apart from this we had a wonderful stay and thoroughly enjoyed the Lake District and Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge. We would definitely return in the near future.
Dear Guest, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear that you found the lodge comfortable, well located, and that you felt at home during your stay. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed both the Lake District and your time at Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge, and that you would consider returning in the near future. We also really appreciate you raising your concerns regarding the kitchen equipment and oven/grill. Since receiving your feedback, we also looked into the pans and have now purchased a completely new set, so thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have also spoken directly with our cleaning contractor regarding the oven, as it appears this part may unfortunately have been overlooked during preparation for your stay. Thank you again for your honest feedback and understanding. Comments like yours genuinely help us improve, and we very much hope to welcome you back again soon. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
the lodge lovely position and very comfortable just great for us.
The only negative was the kitchen just little things for cooking. The pans were very worn and need replacing. utensils and only one cooking bowl for oven use , no cheese grater. like i said only small things. Will definetly book again perfect location
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re very pleased to hear you found both the lodge and the location stunning and that, overall, you enjoyed your stay. We also appreciate your continued support and your honest comments regarding the smaller details you encountered during this visit. Following feedback from recent guests, we have now replaced the kitchen pans and utensils with a completely new set. Thank you again for your valuable feedback. Comments like yours genuinely help us improve the experience for future guests, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
The lodge is in a prime position overlooking the lake, very clean and tidy In my opinion the second bedroom is only suitable for children, small beds with sort of weird pull down cot sides on them with overly small duvets, and all the wardrobes covered in cartoon stickers, bit embarrassing really when we were sharing the lodge with another adult couple!
Also the curtains at the rear of the living area wouldn't draw across, there was only one curtain and it only went half way accross The lodge isn't cheap to hire, mainly due to its position, it could be 5 star rated
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and for your kind comments regarding the lodge’s location, cleanliness, and presentation. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the stunning lakeside position and found the lodge very clean and tidy. We also genuinely appreciate your constructive feedback regarding the second bedroom and the living area curtains. The second bedroom was originally designed with families in mind, but we completely understand your comments when the lodge is shared between adult couples, and your observations are very helpful for us moving forward. We will also be looking into the curtain arrangement in the living area, as this is certainly something that should be functioning properly and providing full coverage for guests. We truly value honest feedback like yours, as it helps us continue improving the lodge and the overall guest experience. We’re pleased you can see the potential for a full five-star stay, and we will certainly take your comments on board as we continue making improvements. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge again in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
The lodge is in a good position overlooking the lake, comfy and well well presented, however I dont think its a good idea for 2 adult couples as the second bedroom is obviously geared towards 2 kids, small beds no good for big people with sort of fold up guards on them to stop you falling out!
The dishwasher emitted a weird smell of fish and didn't clean the dishes properly so we only used it the once, other than that all was okay
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and for your kind comments about the lodge’s lakeside position, comfort, and presentation. We’re very pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay overall. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the second bedroom setup. Just to clarify, the beds in the second bedroom are standard size single beds. The fold-down side guards are only intended for use when younger children are staying at the lodge and can easily be removed if guests do not wish to use or see them, as they simply pull out from the bed frame. We’re also sorry to hear about your experience with the dishwasher. This is certainly not something we would expect, and we will have it inspected and thoroughly cleaned to ensure it is working properly for future guests. Thank you again for your valuable feedback. We genuinely appreciate guests taking the time to help us improve, and we hope to welcome you back to Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge again in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
What an amazing place to take your family.
This was just what we needed. Amazing lodge, amazing location. Everything you could need and more. Will be returning soon as it was breathtaking views of the lake with the added 5 star accommodation.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re absolutely delighted to hear that Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge was just what you and your family needed and that you enjoyed both the lodge and its beautiful lakeside location. It’s fantastic to know you found everything you needed for a comfortable stay and that the views across the lake helped make your visit so special. Your kind comments about the accommodation being “5 star” truly mean a great deal to us. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us, and we very much look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
Amazing lodge.
Very spacious and well equipped. Very clean and everything done to a high standard. Fantastic views of the lake. Will definitely be returning.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the lodge spacious, spotless, and well-equipped. Those lake views really are something special, aren’t they? It means a lot to know you’ll be returning — we can’t wait to welcome you back for another relaxing getaway!
Overall, we had a lovely week in Loubi’s Lodge and have a lot of good things to say about it but there are numerous issues that the owners need to be aware of.
This is meant as genuine and honest feedback because this has previously been a 5-star property, but we can’t give it 5 stars on this occasion. First impressions are very important and that is why we selected this property from the Sykes app. However, on arrival, our initial impression was one of shock and disappointment. In what we thought (from the listing's photos) was a beautiful and relaxing sitting area, we were greeted with an enormous pile of outdoor cushions sticking up haphazardly over the back of the sofa, and a child's highchair and clothes dryer lying higgledy-piggledy between the sofa and the back of the kitchen units. It looked, quite frankly, like a dumping ground. We were instantly deflated. We had booked this lodge for a week's relaxation and invited two friends to join us for a couple of nights. From the pictures, we knew they would be staying in two single beds but we were embarrassed to find cot sides on both of them, which we definitely were not aware of. There were maybe 50-100 kiddies’ stickers all over the wardrobes. Clearly a childrens room. This is not what adults want. Having re-looked at the listing, there is no indication that this is what we would find. We moved the highchair and the clothes horse into the wardrobe in the second bedroom which obviously then impacted the space available to the occupants of the room. Previous reviews have highlighted the difficulties with closing the very long curtain across the picture window. We also found this. On the first night, I had to ask my husband to pull it shut and initially he couldn't do it either because several of the curtain hooks were hanging down. I am guessing that previous guests may have pulled them down accidentally whilst struggling with the problem of closure. Every night, it was a case of carefully having to lift the rings over the brackets in order not to damage anything. Not brilliant. I enjoyed cooking in the kitchen though it took some time to find the manuals for the cookers and microwave. It would have been great if the welcome pack had highlighted where they were, rather than us having to rifle through every drawer and cupboard. Likewise, we could not find a hairdryer which we eventually located in a drawer in the childrens room - not really where we would expect to find it. We had to call the maintenance woman because the ensuite bathroom sink would not retain water. We were impressed with the speed of her response, although the problem didn't actually get resolved while we were still there. Our fault for not reporting it earlier. The bed in the main bedroom was not that comfortable due to lumps and dips in the mattress and the enormously high pillows. I noticed that this also has been commented on in previous reviews. Once our friends had departed, we swapped the pillows over for those in the childrens room and thankfully, that improved the night’s sleep. It might be worth investing in a new mattress and/or offering an alternative pillow, as you would get in a hotel or Airbnb. A week is a long time and when you are paying top notch for something so you want to be assured of comfort. Despite all this, we would love to come back to Loubi's Lodge in the future because of all its good points. It is on a fantastic location on the park itself and is 5 minutes’ walk from Bowness. The decor was pleasing, kitchen facilities very good indeed and there were some lovely touches throughout. One snag though - I am under 5ft tall so couldn't actually reach the kitchen cupboards where the mugs and glasses were. A little step stool would have been appreciated. Hopefully the issues we’ve raised can be addressed.
Dear Guest, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such detailed and thoughtful feedback following your stay at Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge. Firstly, we’re very pleased to hear that, overall, you had a lovely week and that you enjoyed the lodge’s fantastic location, décor, kitchen facilities, and proximity to Bowness. It’s also lovely to hear you would consider returning in the future, which genuinely means a great deal to us. We do, however, sincerely apologise that your first impressions on arrival were disappointing. The outdoor cushions, highchair, and clothes dryer should certainly not have been left presented in that way, and we completely understand how this affected the initial feel of the lodge. This has been raised directly with our housekeeping team to ensure much greater attention is paid to presentation moving forward. The cushions do stay behind the sofa, this is the location they are kept at this lodge, but should be tidy behind the sofa. The highchair is also always on show, as people with children need the use. With it being a lodge/caravan their is no where else for the items to go. Thank you as well for highlighting the curtain issue. We are aware this has been mentioned previously and appreciate your patience. We will now be arranging for this to be properly addressed, including the damaged hooks and smoother operation across the full window span. We’re pleased our maintenance contact responded quickly regarding the sink issue, although we are sorry it was not fully resolved during your stay. We will ensure this is followed up properly. With regard to the mattress and pillows, we do appreciate that comfort preferences can vary greatly from guest to guest, and unfortunately it is difficult for us to accommodate every individual preference regarding mattress firmness or pillow style. For guests with very specific requirements, we would therefore recommend bringing their own preferred pillow if desired. We do, however, regularly update our bedding, linen, cushions, and duvets annually, and these have all very recently been replaced and refreshed. The mattress itself is actually a high-quality premium mattress, with one side designed to feel medium-firm and the other softer. As you face the bed, the right-hand side is the softer side, while the left-hand side is firmer, which is our own preference as owners. We do appreciate this may feel different from what some guests are used to at home, but perhaps trying the opposite side of the bed on a future visit may provide a more comfortable sleep experience. We also appreciate the smaller practical suggestions you mentioned, including clearer information for appliance manuals, the location of the hairdryer, and the idea of providing a small step stool for easier kitchen access. These are all genuinely useful observations that help us improve the guest experience. Thank you again for your honest and constructive feedback. We truly value guests taking the time to share detailed experiences in such a fair and thoughtful way, and we very much hope to welcome you back to Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge again in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
We had a wonderful last minute short break at Loubi's Lake Side Lodge.
It was very clean, comfortable, spacious and quiet and being at the end of a line of lodges there was no cars or people walking past the veranda which looked directly onto lake Windemere. Both bedrooms were spacious which was a nice surprise for the second bedroom. The main bedroom was very comfortable with a super large shower. We would definitely book again.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your last-minute break at Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge and that you found the lodge clean, comfortable, spacious, and peaceful. The position overlooking Lake Windermere really is something special, and we’re so pleased you were able to relax and enjoy the privacy and beautiful surroundings. It’s also wonderful to hear your comments about both bedrooms and the main bedroom shower facilities. We always want guests to feel comfortable and at home during their stay. Thank you again for your kind feedback and recommendation. We would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back again in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
Positives: Magnificent view of lake, quiet position, good parking space right next to lodge.
Overall, well equipped. Negatives: 'SMART TV' - we could only get Freeview channels so this is misleading - got someone out to look at this and she couldn't help. Curtains to bi-fold doors are a joke, almost impossible to draw. - we're in our 70s and had to stand on a chair to pull them across each day. No instructions about how to work anything, e.g. TV, oven, where to put rubbish. Large extra King size bed but very cheap bedding which was designed for ordinary king size bed. Instructions to location of lodge a bit difficult to follow, a map would help.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and for highlighting both the positives and areas where you felt improvements could be made. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the magnificent lake views, peaceful position of the lodge, and the convenience of the parking directly alongside the property. It’s also lovely to know you found the lodge generally well equipped. We are sorry, however, to hear of the frustrations you experienced during your stay. In relation to the Smart TV, the television itself is a Smart TV, although we appreciate your comments regarding the setup and functionality during your visit. We understand how disappointing this must have been, especially after requesting assistance, and we will revisit the system and instructions provided to guests to make this clearer and easier to use. We also sincerely apologise regarding the curtains across the bi-fold doors. We completely appreciate your comments, particularly having to struggle with them daily, and this is something we are now actively addressing following feedback from several guests. Your observations regarding the lack of instructions for appliances, rubbish disposal, and lodge information are also very fair and appreciated. We are currently reviewing our welcome information to make everything clearer and more straightforward for future guests, including directions to the lodge, where a map would certainly be helpful. With regard to the bedding, we are sorry it did not meet your expectations. We do regularly refresh and replace our bedding, linen, cushions, and duvets annually, and these have very recently been updated, though we appreciate comfort and bedding preferences can vary from guest to guest. Thank you again for your honest and constructive feedback. We genuinely value comments such as yours as they help us continue improving the guest experience, and we do hope to welcome you back to Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge again in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge never fails to please: beautiful, comfortable and well equipped, with an idyllic lakeside location.

Your kind comments mean a great deal to us, and we very much look forward to welcoming you back again for another relaxing stay in the future. Warm regards, Loubis Lodge
We have just returned from a wonderful weekend at Loubi’s lodge.
The views from the lodge are amazing and the lodge itself is fantastic with everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay. We will definitely be returning again in the future.
What a joy to read—thank you so much!
A great stay and a great location.
We’ve been to Loubis Lakeside Lodge a few times and will definitely be coming back. Thanks!
Thank you so much!
Fantastic lodge and the location was superb for views of lake Windermere, everything you need at this accomodation, kitchen was equipped very well, living area is a great place to relax with the views,bedrooms all very comfy and clean,bathrooms very good.
only problem I had was entering the park barrier as this changes on a regular basis according to reception,but was quickly resolved by the staff, overall this was one of the best accommodations I've stayed in the lakes,parking, location was perfect for bowness and exploring further.excellent
Thank you so much for your fantastic review!
Spent a week in Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge and it was lovely.
Clean and tidy and the milk in the fridge on arrival was a welcomed touch! Lovely position on the park with amazing views across the lake. We had no issues during our stay and would definitely book to stay again.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Stunning property.
One of the best, if not the best we’ve stayed at on fallbarrow. We’ve stayed in ALOT. Great position. Modern but homely feeling in the lodge. Great place. Will definitely stay again.
Wow—what an amazing review, thank you!
Beautiful lodge and location.
We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will most definitely be booking again.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your Christmas stay at Loubi's Lakeside Lodge. We hope to welcome you again. The owner relations team - Lake District Lodge Holidays
Lovely location of the lodge right on the edge of the lake very peaceful setting, fabulous view, comfortable surroundings.
We cleaned all around the lodge before we left to ensure it was how we found it, hope to return next year.
Hi Carol , Thank you for your lovely review!
Fantastic stay we loved it thank you.
Loved the 'fly pasts' of the F35 jets! The Christmas
Hi Tracey Thank you for your fantastic review!
We booked this lodge for my partners 30th birthday, and wanted something special.
This ticked all the boxes for us as we also have a 3 yer old. My in-laws got on site early and were staying In a different lodge but went round to ours to put up banners and balloons on the outside as a surprise. This was done before we got up there and was kindly left by the cleaners which we really appreciate. When we walked in the lodge it was absolutely stunning,everything was spotless and smelt really clean. The added touch of the towels and cleaning products were great. The balance between kid and adult friendly was perfect it felt really homely and loved everything that was in there. All of us were amazed by the views, its so relaxing and great for the little one. When we were leaving rhe cleaners came up and were so friendly and kind and wanted to check that we had no issues during our stay which we didnt. We spent a week at this lodge and really enjoyed spending our time there, absoutley gutted to have to go home. We come up to fallbarrow a few times a year and if possible would love to keep coming back to this lodge. It will certainly not disappoint anyone that books it.
Dear Holly Wow, what a lovely review! We’re so happy to hear that the lodge helped make your partner’s 30th birthday extra special. It sounds like you had an amazing time, and we're thrilled that everything from the surprise decorations to the cozy, homely atmosphere made your stay unforgettable. It’s fantastic to know that the lodge was the perfect mix of kid-friendly and relaxing for the adults, too! We’re so glad you enjoyed the views, the little extra touches like towels and cleaning products, and of course, the friendly service from our cleaners. It’s also great to hear that Fallbarrow is one of your go-to spots, and we'd absolutely love to welcome you back to the lodge for your next visit. We’ll be sure to have everything ready for you – and the little one! Thanks again for such a thoughtful review. We can’t wait to see you again! Warm wishes, Loubis Lodge
We have stayed at other lodges at Fallbarrow but this is by far the best lodge for luxury and the view is amazing.
The lodge is spacious and has everything you need. We would definitely stay here again. Only comment would be to provide bins in the bathrooms.
Hi Louise, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're over the moon that you had such a great time and loved the luxury of the lodge and those amazing views. We agree – it’s pretty special! And guess what? We’ve already taken your fantastic suggestion on board and added bins in the bathrooms! Great idea, We’re so happy you pointed that out. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another stay – you’ll always be part of the Fallbarrow family! Warm and happy wishes, Loubis Lodge
This lodge is fantastic, perfect location overlooking the lake and beautiful inside too.
Would highly recommend and we will be back
Thank you for your feedback on Loubi’s lakeside lodge. We are thrilled you appreciate our perfect lodge by the lake
The outside of the property need a lot of TLC Guttering leaking you get a shower when you go out of side gate.
No toaster, No clothes airer, light in bathroom reported but not fixed, shower in main bathroom leaking so badly you can not use. In En suite sink would not hold water plug not working. All reported not fixed. However view perfect.
Dear Guests We were deeply concerned by your review, and have subsequently throughly investigated. We have raised your concerns directly with Sykes cottages, your booking agent. The Sykes team informed us that you did not want anyone to attend the property during your stay but wanted to report the issues. Sykes did not pass any issues over to us, so unfortunately we could not of done anything to rectify any issues. The guttering was due to blockage from debris, of which has been cleared. The bathroom shower hose has been fixed and a new shower hose has been installed. The shower now works perfectly. We have two showers in the property, and both have been serviced. The basin plug is a push button, we’ve tested it and we cannot find any issues with the plug. Maybe something went down the plug hole which stopped the plug mechanism working. You will be pleased to know, we have equipped the property with a new toaster. We didn’t consider a toaster to be a big issue, especially when we have a grill oven, however we have now provided one. As for the property appearance, the property is made of Cedar Wood, so it does weather and look weathers when it rains or during dry spells. Being one of the best property on the site, with the only lodge that has all day sunshine, amazing views just a few steps from the lake, we get a lot of visitors, and as such we employ a maintenance team to handle your issues 7 days per week. We wish we could of had the opportunity to resolve your issues. We are a bit perplexed at your overall score. This doesn’t match our property at all…. We advise customers to read the other customer reviews to form a more accurate opinion on overall score.
This is a great lodge me and my family have been coming to fallbarrow park for thirteen years now.
This stay has been the best one so far as we stayed in a lot of the lodge on the park great location.We have booked up to stay here again next years and probably do the same next year thanks for a great lodge.
Wow—thirteen years of visiting Fallbarrow and this was your best stay yet? That absolutely makes our day!
Lovely lodge in a quiet area of the park and the views over the lake were superb.
The bedrooms were large and comfortable and the lodge was mostly well equipped. Although it was too cold for us to use the outdoor furniture it looked very comfortable. Just a few small niggles. There was no toaster or hairdryer. The shower hose in the main bathroom leaked and there were no bins in either bathroom. Other than this it was a lovely stay.
Dear Guests You will be glad to know we have put a toaster in the property. We’ve had a few guests mention a toaster. Although we have a grill pan in the property, we have come to understand people prefer toasters. The shower hose has been sorted, we have installed a brand new hose and shower head. We will take your comments on board about a bin in the bathroom. For us, we like the property as minimal as possible, so we don’t like seeing bins around the property and like things to be tucked away. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you get to use our new amazing toaster on your return.
Lovely property in an ideal spot, the only thing tiles in main bathroom grouting looked dirty, also would have been nice to have a toaster.
Thank you so much for your review!
We stayed at the lodge for 4 nights and loved every minute of it We have been coming to fallbarrow for over 15 years and this is by far the nicest lodge (I think we would only book this from now on) You do get a WOW when you walk in and the view is amazing We had everything we needed in the lodge.
It has been decorated to a high standard We loved the comfy bed and the powerful shower ensuite. I would highly recommend it to anyone and the owner is very lucky to have such a beautiful property in a perfect location So lucky that we found it
Wow—what an absolutely wonderful review, thank you!
Great place to stay with superb views across the lake.
The Lodge was very clean and modern. We survived storm Isha and Jocelyn but had to retrieve the patio furniture from the hedge in the mornings lol. The Restaurant on site served nice food at a fair price. Easy access into Bowness for a walk around or a river cruise. The internet kept dropping out but it didn't bother us to much. The lodge could do with a toaster and a hairdryer for a bit more convenience but overall it was well worth the stay and we would recommend it to anyone.
Thank you so much for the brilliant review!
Absolutely beautiful lodge, would highly recommend Mattresses were next level comfy
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Quality lodge.
Furnishing and equipment was excellent and better than we have had previously staying on fallbarrow. The view makes it though, didn’t want to go out!
The lodge was very well equipped and very comfortable.
The view was incredible and we had a thoroughly enjoyable week in Bowness.
Superb stay - the lodge was immaculate.
Amazing location. Only feedback would be there was a strange smell in the bathroom - a bit like smoke (which I'm sure it wasn't!) upon arrival. Regardless, that didn't detract from an amazing family holiday. We would 100% be back.
Simply the best of environments.
Only downside, too many spiders webs and spiders in the house.
We had a fantastic stay at Loubi’s Lakeside Lodge.
The lodge was immaculate, comfortable and private. We loved waking up to the fantastic lake view every morning. We will miss that. We would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of staying here.
1st class Lodge, all the amenities was fine.
Great location. Club house was great. Fine food and good choice of ale.
I booked this lodge for my husbands 65th birthday treat, and what a treat it was!
We absolutely loved it. It rained one day and I was so pleased as it meant we had to stay in the lodge and not go for a walk that day, hahahaha. We would definitely be looking to go back and stay in Loubi's Lodge. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay there for a week.
Thank you for your comments, we are so pleased to see that you had a lovely holiday. We hope to welcome you back. The Lake District Lodge Holidays Owner Relations Team.
What a wonderful lodge -Lots of love and care gone into this by the owners.
In an amazing position right near the lake with beautiful views.Fantastic decking and furniture. Fully equipped with everything you need. Comfortable beds and luxury bedding.Loved every minute - we will only ever book to stay at this lodge when we goto Fallbarrow again. Couple of tiny suggestions: little bins in bathrooms would be really useful and another bedside lamp in master bedroom but nothing to fault at all so thank you for a great stay xxx
Beautiful Lodge in a Perfect location!
Thank you very much for a wonderful stay. We’ve been coming to the Lakes for years and stayed in many lodges but this one has to be up there with the best we’ve stayed in. Clean, comfortable and everything you need for a great stay. The location of this lodge is perfect. Quiet with outstanding views of the lake, which is merely metres away. Fallbarrow Park is ideal for walking in to Bowness. The children’s toys and DVDs in the lodge made my 5 year old very happy! We would definitely recommend this lodge to family and friends and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. A great week away!
Thank you for your kind comments. We are glad to hear that you and your 5 year old enjoyed your stay! We hope to welcome you back.
WOW, WOW, WOW!
We had an amazing time at this beautiful Lodge. Spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable beds and sofas. Bed linen beautiful and soft and the largest main bed we have ever stayed in. Kitchen fully equipped for any meals you wished to prepare and bathrooms just perfect. Lodge was set on a heating timer and was always warm and snug. View from the lodge to the lake was fabulous even on a rainy day it was so relaxing. Would not hesitate to recommend this to family and friends and will definitely be returning. Thank you for an amazing holiday :-)
Thank you for your very kind comments. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay, and the views! We hope to welcome you back.
No toaster.
No Bathroom bins. Surprised no mattress protectors! Rainwater gutter above Bathroom window blocked, so water therefore cascades onto gate below. Safety issues - - wash basin and mirror above too close, bang your if you lean too far forward. - extract canopy above hob far too low, very easy to bang your head.
Thank you for taking the time to write some feedback. We are sorry that you had some issues during your stay, we will be looking into these.
Great place, fantastic view but would recommend a few tiny improvements: - More detail regarding how to get to the lodge, maybe draw a map, it was very easy to get lost when first arriving - Buy new bed sheets, they were rough to touch and very coarse - Maybe allow for certain basic products to stay in the kitchen, like salt, pepper, toilet, etc.
I understand there may be hygienic limitations, so not entirely sure on this, but still would be better to reduce overall waste. Other than, absolutely gorgeous cabin, very guarded and private, my family and I spent some beautiful days there.
Best lodge we have stayed in, would love to stay again.
Thank you for leaving cushions for outdoor furniture, we made full use of them as we had 3 days of sunshine in November!!
Thank you for your feedback, we so pleased you had a wonderful stay and we hope to welcome you back soon.
Our stay was magical….
.overlooking lake Windermere from the comfort of our lodge was a wonderful experience. We were impressed with the cleanliness, numerous facilities, quality of the fixtures and fittings. I didn’t want to leave! We loved the geese, swans and ducks that approached us and we even went and bought them appropriate food so we could feed them they were so tame. Being right in Bowness was a perfect location to get out and about across Cumbria - we did t realise we were on 45 miles from the Scottish border until this trip! We will be returning on 2023 - thank you so much for a fantastic stay. 11/10 is our score! S&R
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Loubi's Lakeside Lodge. We are sure that the ducks enjoyed their trreats! We look forward to welcoming you back again!
Beautiful accommodation and perfect setting.
Could not fault anything, everything was spotlessly clean. Lovely comfortable bed, whole lodge warm and cosy. Did have a problem with the hot water, which was quickly dealt with.very impressed with the service. Would definitely book again
Many thanks for taking the time to submit your valued and positive feedback. We are delighted to hear that you had such an enjoyable stay in Loubi's Lakeside Lodge and look forward to welcoming you back should you decide to stay again in the future.
