    “Lodge was nice clean inside.”

    Was disappointed that work was not finished in hot tub area not private as no screen. It had been taken out to replace but was not done while we where there all week so all open no privecy.

    Thank you for your feedback. We too, were disappointed that the decking area was not completed in time for your visit. Unfortunately it was a mistake on the contractor's part regarding the privacy glass and we had requested that they provide an alternative during your stay. The privacy glass has now been completed.

The dining area has a round glass table and four chairs to savour hearty meals.

The lodge also has double bi-fold doors giving a light and bright interior – perfect for those glorious warm evenings!

Outside, you’ll find furniture for alfresco dining, as well as a sunken hot tub, to simply relax and unwind from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

White Cross Bay is in a fabulous location, on the shores of Lake Windermere.

With views across the water and to the surrounding fells, you are literally in the heart of the Lake District and your lodge is just a few yards from the waterside. A short stroll will bring you to Brockhole Lake District Visitor Centre, with its gardens, house, café, restaurant, walks, boats, adventure playground, and Zip World, there's lots to do!

You’re also just two miles from Windermere village with shops, cafés, and pubs, and three miles from Bowness boat landings, where the cruisers come in.

Three miles in the other direction, head to Ambleside, another bustling town with shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants and of course, walks in every direction.

Two miles North of Somerford Lodge on the A592 is the pretty village of Troutbeck, home to two traditional pubs with log fires: The Queens Head and the Mortal man; Holehird Gardens, and the National Trust’s Townend House.

Further on you climb up to the magnificent Kirkstone Pass, then drop down to Brotherswater & Ullswater.

All hot tubs are maintained to strict industry standards and HSE guidelines by separate qualified independent contractors on behalf of the property owners. This includes changing the water between guest stays and checking the water condition on a regular basis.

In such cases the hot tub will usually be ready to use later that day unless otherwise advised. In such cases no compensation or refund is payable unless the hot tub is faulty.

Information about using a hot tub safely is provided at all lodges with a hot tub and on a prominent notice near the tub. All hot tub users should wear an appropriate bathing suit.
