The Grange Lodge

Lovely stay at the Grange Lodge this is our second time here , its a perfect house and location in Windermere.

Very spacious house with lovely gardens. The owner was very helpful and gave us very useful information of things to do and places to eat. The house was immaculately clean when we arrived.

Amazing location, particularly with young children.

Easy walk into Windermere and to the lake itself. Bus stop not far from the house either, making it easy to get to further locations. The house itself was comfortable and offered everything we needed for our break away. The owners were accommodating and provided further information about the area during our break. Very useful. Overall would recommend.

Amazing place to stay, so peaceful.

Location is great, walking distance to windermere. The lodge is equipped with everything you need and more. Lovely and clean. Fab recommendations from the owner of places to visit and eat. Would definitely recommend.

We loved staying at The Grange Lodge - plenty of room, extremely comfy beds and bedding and everything clean and in good condition.

It also felt very homely - the cupboards were full of games and there were lots of books to read too. Judith was very helpful emailing information and letting us know where the bedding was from so that we could get this for our own home! The views of the garden and beyond were beautiful. Overall a very peaceful and quiet place to stay but with the bonus of being not far from the lake and places to visit. Would highly recommend hiring a little boat and going out on the lake (Windermere) - a bit cheaper if you go 945am or earlier but it does need booking online. Would definitely recommend this as a lovely place to stay and we hope to return.

The place was spacious,welcoming,clean and well maintained.

Ideal for 6 adults and a 7 month old baby. From the moment we arrived we felt comfortable.

Fantastic location and lovely home from home.

The Grange Lodge is truly beautiful, and the interior decoration is even more appealing than in the photos.

But it is not just about aesthetics—we felt very comfortable inside, especially after a long walk. The lodge is very close to Windermere, a charming town, and the bus stop for reaching the main lake area is just three minutes from the house. The owner also provided a great deal of helpful information, which made our stay very easy. It was one of the most beautiful vacations we have ever had

Accommodation first class everything there that we needed beautiful garden with lovely view

What a fabulous place.

We are lucky to have found it. The owners obviously love the place as it is very well cared for. Wonderful lounge with a hugh window overlooking the super large garden. All bedrooms were exellent with plenty of bathrooms and the property was very spacious. Loved all the old wooden furniture. Lots of books and games to choose from. Quiet area with no road noise just the birds. The position of the property is in the old part of Windermere which has lots of old paths to other areas of Windermere, great it you like walking. Also loved the position of the property due to access to the buses going to the various villages in the lakes. Would love to visit again.

The cottage was just perfect for us.

True to advertised it was spacious and well equipped. The comfort of the beds was a big highlight as a good sleep is everything, the bedding felt high quality. We enjoyed planning our days sat around the kitchen table. And my son loved a hot bath after some long walks. Location was absolutely stunning, with easy access to walks and the town. Off the main road u were in a sanctuary of peace with stunning views. Would highly recommend this property to anyone. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

The Grange Lodge is a very comfy "home from home".

A very well equipped property with stunning views, easy to use appliances and plenty of space for 6. Would highly recommend. Owner also very helpful with local information.

This house is lovely!

Spacious and light, but manages to be cosy as well. Great location (easy walk into town) with comfy beds and nice bedding and towels. The house is a home from home. We had a great family get together here - it worked really well for us. It is peaceful and we had great weather so we enjoyed the garden and view as well. Judith was very helpful and gave us some good information. We would love to return.

Lovely cottage but even better garden.

Close proximity to Bowness-On-Windermere - walk of around 30 minutes as well as shops and pubs/restaurants (around 10 minute walk). Was a great location for great walks in Windermere, Grasmere and Ullswater. Cottage was well appointed and comfortable for the 6 of us.

A lovely property.

Very well equipped, comfortable and clean. We chose it because there was a ground floor bedroom/walk in shower for my elderly mother. The view from the lounge was stunning, all the rooms beautifully furnished and the beds were so comfortable. Windermere shops and restaurants just a stroll away and the lake twenty minutes walk or so, and there's a bus stop nearby. Highly recommend.

Accommodation was gorgeous.

Lots of nice touches from a welcome pack to lovely vegan toiletries. Owner was immediately in touch when we arrived to offer tips on local walks, places to visit and promoting local produce and businesses. Directions to property were very accurate and helpful.

The location was fantastic and within easy reach of the lake and the town centre.

Beds were comfortable and the kitchen well equipped.

Grange Lodge was lovely , however the TV was a problem as a message kept coming up when we tried to use it that there was a faulty dish on the TV which caused it cut out and most of the time to be unavailable .

Given it was Christmas this was a big issue as we could not watch tv programmes . Other than that it is a gorgeous place ,brilliant location and very comfortable

The owners Judith and Timothy were very helpful and accommodating, we stayed at their other property (Grange) 4 years ago, and both properties are excellent.

With a home feeling and very comfortable, with great views out and over the huge garden, we really enjoyed our stay, and would certainly recommend it to other guests. With only a short walk, less than 5 min into the heart of Windermere Town, and bus stops only a 2 min walk away into Bowness or Ambleside, gave us the opportunity to enjoy a nice meal and drink in many of the restaurants and pubs nearby. 10 out of 10.

Our 2nd time staying at The Grange Lodge and once an again we had a lovely week in The Lakes.

It has everything you need and a perfect location. Tucked away off the main road, but only a short walk to the shops/bars and short walk to the lake. Would highly recommend.

Grange Lodge was a lovely property to stay in for our holiday and was well situated for a walk into Windermere.

the Grange Lodge was wonderful.

As soon as we arrived it felt like home. We are a family of 5 and it was extremely spacious, comfortable and very clean. The views from the lounge were spectacular and the garden was a joy. The only possible feedback would be that the fridge space was slightly limited, but we shopped from the local supermarket every day, called Booths, and it didn’t bother us. The owners were very attentive and communicated well when we asked questions. We walked to Windermere most days and to the pier. The town itself is quaint and very pretty. We drove out to other towns for walks and gift shopping. It rained most days but it didn’t get in the way of the enjoyment of Windermere and Grange Lodge. We would love to come back.

Lovely well equipped, comfortable property, fabulous garden and great location.

We had a wonderful week at this beautiful location.

The Lodge has fabulous views towards lake Windermere, was immaculately clean and was within walking distance to a variety of walks, and the centre with its various cafes, restaurants and pubs. (Tillys was great) Bus service is extensive. Tons to do in the area, lakeland segways and go ape at Grizdale recommended. The owners were happy to make recommendations in the area and were on hand if we needed them. Would highly recommend this property.

The Grange is a lovely place everything you need great location .

the only thing we missed was a egg slice which is such a small thing .Judith was brilliant giving us a lot of information about the area .

Beautiful property, spotlessly clean and fully equipped.

Perfect location, we had a lovely stay and will definitely book again

Best property we have stayed at in the lakes.

Nice and private, excellent facilities, good location... it had it all.

Absolutely fabulous - even the weather was perfect!

Pictures don’t do it justice as is was a fabulous place to stay.

Although within walking distance to the town and just off the main road you would think you are in the isolated country. The house had everything and although advertised as a 2 bathroom had 4 toilets and 3 showers along with a deep bath. Would certainly recommend and would stay here again

Grange Lodge is a very comfortable and well equipped property with good sized rooms situated just a short distance from the centre of Windermere.

Despite the close proximity to the town, the house and (excellent) garden had the feel of a quiet rural location with the garden being a great asset in the summer. Unfortunately for us, our November visit saw more use of the (easy to use) wood burner than the garden, making our stay very cosy and memorable.

My sister and hausband were bck in England from Aus for their 50th and they were in awe of the Grange.

As soon as you walk in wow. It was relaxing and perfect for anywhere in the lakes. Thank you

The whole stay was wonderful.

The lovely house, location, company and beautiful weather. Would definately recommend Grange Lodge to family and friends. It was spacious, relaxing and very well equipped for all our needs.

Lovely accommodation with beautiful garden, ideally located for walking into Windermere and to the lake.

Bus stops nearby for travel further afield without using the car. Kitchen well equipped for cooking and plenty of books and games for wet weather days.

Lovely cottage,ideal location.

..short walk into Windermere and down to lake...2 rooms with shower room downstairs & one with bathroom on ground floor ideal for someone with limited mobility....cottage has everything you would need very well equipped and owners very helpful

We love the Grange lodge and have been coming for over 10 years.

Comfortable, excellent facilities, amazing views, close to Lake, mountains and amenities. Thankyou Judith for making us feel so welcome and all the helpful tips. We really appreciated the welcome gifts.

Another great stay in this lovely cottage.

Typical British Summer weather did not affect our stay as the property provides such a comfortable and relaxing environment. So convenient for public transport, walking and shops

Wonderful house, very clean and well equipped.

The holiday home was fabulous.

Very spacious and so well equipped. We loved the views from the lounge and the garden was gorgeous. We had everything we needed at the property. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone who wished to visit the Lakes. Thank you

Perfect, as always

The cottage was very clean and comfortable.

Well equipped kitchen and toiletries provided, which was more than what we expected. It was a short walk to the centre of Windermere and the lake. 40 minutes walk to the centre of Bowness. Altogether a lovely cottage to relax in with plenty of space for the whole family.

Excellent cottage and location

Perfect location beautiful garden excellent accommodation will definitely be coming back

Beautiful, spacious, homely, well equipped and comfortable bungalow with a log burning fire (which we did not use as the gas central heating was good enough to heat the house).

3 showers, a bath, 4 toilets and a washer and dryer, perfect for a family of 5. Close to all shops,the train station, visitors centre and perfect for local walks;Orrest head nearby is an easy walk and can go further once at the top, this was recommended by the owner. Would also recommend Golden Mountain Chinese restaurant and The Little Chippy Takeaway just a short walk away from The Grange.

Superb stay and very comfortable.

Just returned from a lovely week in the Lakes staying at the Grange Lodge in Windermere.

A great location to stay , just a short walk in to Windermere. The house was clean and so well equipped with everything you will need and more. The beds were very comfy. The garden space is great, shame we couldn’t use it more due to the weather. The shower room downstairs was excellent. Overall a gorgeous house. Will 100% be returning in the future . Thank you

We had a fabulous time at Grange Lodge.

We found the accommodation outstanding and loved the stunning views and tranquility. Very spacious, well equipped & tastefully decorated providing a lovely homely feel. We visited with our family & friends from USA who absolutely loved this place! We were blessed with perfect weather and would 100% recommend, we most certainly hope to return in the future!

Great house, even better garden in such a convenient location.

Highly recommended

Amazing place.

Great stay. Had everything we needed (as a family of 6). Will definitely return.

Great lodge and a perfect location for us with the children, there was also generous parking for two cars .

Couldn’t fault the property in fact the photographs didn’t do it justice.

In a great location within walking distance of Windermere. We would definitely stay again.

Grange Lodge was very much a 'home from home'.

The house is close to Windermere village but was a lovely tranquil oasis from the busy village itself. We had amazing weather during our stay so the garden really came into its own in the evenings, once we'd returned from our day's adventures with great seating and wonderful seclusion, only shared by one property next door. The kitchen is very well equipped for self catering but there is also a plethora of cafes and restaurants within easy walking distance if you prefer to eat out. The lounge has large windows to one side with spectacular views across the garden to the hills beyond. The house is, obviously, well loved with good quality mattresses, quality furniture and more than sufficient space for 6 adults. There are two shower rooms and on bathroom plus a separate loo so plenty of facilities. For the price charged, we felt this was an excellent value stay in a great location within an easy drive of many beauty spots. We will definitely come again.

This was the best cottage we’ve stayed in , beautiful location , very clean , the beds were so comfy.

It was fully equipped. We had such good weather so was able to enjoy a bbq in the stunning garden too. Would love to come back and would definitely recommend.

We had an amazing stay at the Grange Lodge, so much so that we have booked it again for next year.

It was so well equipped for a family. The rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The view from the lounge is amazing and we could see the evening sun glinting on Windermere. We all would highly recommend this cottage to stay in.

We had an enjoyable stay.

The cottage was extremely well equipped and comfortable. One of the best we have stayed in.

The best holiday .

cottage perfect for what we required

Lovely comfortable house and fabulous gardens Comfortable beds and furniture Great bathrooms Would love to return

Amazing property, what was advertised is what we got.

Highly recommend this property for anyone going to the Lake District. Short walk to both Windermere and Bowness on Windermere.

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at the Grange Lodge.

Everything was of the highest quality, with comfortable beds and excellent showers, which make such a difference to a holiday! We would definitely recommend the house to others, and will probably book here again. The only (very tiny) niggle was the lack of oven gloves. It is also worth noting that the house is far enough away from both main roads, that there is no road noise, so it is very peaceful, whilst being easy walking distance to Windermere village.

Amazing experience.

Comfy beds, massive lodge, great views 5 mins walking down, and amazing garden

Cleanliness left a lot to be desired with mould, cobwebs and even a dead spider in the fridge.

TVs TVs need updating to smart TV Facilities were fine with everything needed. Lovely position and garden.

I would not recommend this property in fact I would advise people to steer clear.

There are some positives in its location and size and a good level of kitchen equipment. Plus when the hot water tap on the en-suite sink did not work someone did come out to fix it. However, I had several issues which mean that I could not recommend this place to future guests. 1) Cleanliness- we had to reclean certain areas upon arrival. There was food still on the dining room table which was visible on entry. debris under the coffee table in the sitting room, cobwebs in the bedroom and a dead wasp on the bathroom windowsill. Further insult is that we had t o check-in late and depart early in order to allow for thorough cleaning. 2) the downstairs shower is not fit for purpose. It does not drain properly even when using as little water as possible. Therefore its should not be marketed as a house with 3 showers as we could not use this. 3) The Heating. This is controlled by the owners and whilst you can adjust the thermostat (only to a certain point) sometimes you don't even get an hour of the heating at the temperature you desire. This is particularly problematic for the rooms downstairs which were never warm because the heating is set so low they never had a chance to warm up. The thermostat is controlled by a pin number to adjust which is not shared with guests. We paid £2000 to rent this property and we couldn't even heat it how we needed. The heating, the misrepresentation of the usable shower and the lack of interest in providing a clean property show a terrible disrespect for customers and that is why I wouldn't stay there again or recommend it to anyone.

We were a group including my 90year old mother with ltd mobility - the hot water in ground floor bedroom en-suite sink did not appear to be connected?

? Also a couple of comfortable chairs by window in lounge overlooking garden would have been good addition otherwise amongst best equipped accommodation stayed in in uk or abroad!

We have stayed with lakelovers for the last few years.

The cleanliness of the property this year what not up to the standard we have come to expect and this was a shame. I hope standards return. Otherwise another lovely stay.

Grange Lodge was very nice but it needs a clothes line as the tumble dryer doesn’t dry clothes too well.

There is not enough seating in the living room to seat 6 adults comfortably but there is space for more comfy seating to be provided. Bed mattresses are very soft which are not my preference but were loved by others in my family. It was generally very clean and comfortable and we had a very enjoyable week. We were even able to charge our hybrid car by passing the charging cable through the main bedroom window to the drive outside, which was very handy.

Grange Lodge was perfect for our family holiday.

It is in a great location, near shops, bars and restaurants but also quiet with a beautiful garden and a short walk from the lake and all the available activities there. It is accessible and easy to get to all the walks and climbs in the Lakes from the lodge. The Lodge itself is one of the best self catering accommodations that we've stayed in, every possible piece of kitchen equipment was provided, lots of plates, glasses, utensils etc. with some nice touches such as the Bath House soap and hand lotions, the welcome coffee/tea basket and books, games and magazines. We were lucky that the weather was good enough for us to sit outside in the garden, even managing a barbecue one evening. We will definitely return to stay at Grange Lodge again.

Windows and carpets were not clean.

Kids hand prints and crumbs on carpets

Grange Lodge was fantastic, a beautiful property in a great location with picturesque views from the lounge.

The garden was huge and we were lucky to enjoy it on most days thanks to the Lake District weather. The property was extensive with plenty of space and well equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay.

Great location - good access on foot down to the lakeshore.

Short walk to Windermere with local supermarket and good walk into Bowness on Windermere. House in a quiet location and really well equipped - big windows onto the great garden made for a chilled time - even better with the log burner. Big dining table never used as kitchen table more than adequate. Great base with some good walks from the door as well as short drives to a range of places - Gummers How, Rydal, Ambleside, Glenridding for some memorable walks.

Having spent a very comfortable and memorable few days in the Lodge, I would thoroughly recommend the property in Windermere for its convenience to the town and facilities.

It enjoys the combination of being very tranquil but close to good food shops, rail and bus networks and main roads for you to explore the Lake District. The Lodge is very well presented and is impeccably clean. An excellent property for families and friends alike.
