Jinnyspinner Lodge
Description
Troutbeck Bridge 2.2 miles.
This welcoming three-bedroom home, Jinnyspinner Lodge, is conveniently located in Troutbeck in the quaint village of Troutbeck Bridge, Cumbria, amid the scenic surroundings of the Lake District National Park.
Jinnyspinner Lodge allows six guests to bask in the ultimate break in Cumbria.
It offers all ground-floor accommodations, pet-friendly living, and a gorgeous open-plan decor, in addition to being positioned in one of the most desirable locations on the holiday park.
Once you've parked, go inside your new home and prepare to unwind with a cup of tea in the tastefully decorated sitting area while turning on the TV to make yourself feel at home.
Allow the group's emerging chef to prepare a delicious home-cooked dinner in the well-equipped kitchen, which includes all the gadgets needed to make your stay easier if you're self-catering.
Then, everyone can enjoy their food at the dining room table or on the private decking.
As you have a nice beverage and make plans for the exciting days ahead, take in your beautiful surroundings, which overlook vast fields.
You may also listen to the tranquil sounds of the Trout Beck nearby.
Returning inside, take a well-earned soak in the tub or a hot shower in the contemporary bathroom, finish up your evening routine and then select one of the three bedrooms—two king-size, one with a convenient en-suite and a twin—that are all tastefully decorated and have plenty of storage for your personal belongings.
Start your morning with a tranquil walk around Holehird Gardens, a spectacular 10-acre fellside garden with a wealth of flora and wildlife to discover and enjoy, if you can drag yourself away from the beautiful National Trust site of Townend.
Enjoy the breathtaking views from Orrest Head Viewpoint, practise your swing at Windermere Golf Club, indulge your inner child at The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction or participate in one of the many watersports available on England's largest lake all nearby.
Visit the whimsical 17th-century home of The Bridge House, see the untouched grandeur of Stock Ghyll Force Waterfall, or tour the historic grounds of Wray Castle in Ambleside before concluding with a substantial lunch in one of the many pubs, restaurants, or cafes in the area.
You'll never run out of things to see or do here because it's conveniently located to take advantage of all Ullswater, Kendal, Rydal, and Grasmere have to offer.
Spend time in Cumbria with friends and family creating memories by staying at Jinnyspinner Lodge.

What guests are saying
Jinnyspinner Lodge has a wonderful situation on the edge of the Park, immediately above a stream with lots of birds in the trees nearby.
The lodge was well-appointed and adequate for our needs. The only drawback was that we could not find out how to work the heating, and as it was late September it was a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings, particularly as the weather was wet and dull on several days.
Beautiful lodge, all the facilities you need , great location right on the river , very comfortable, this was our 7th visit and every year the lodge has improvements made to it with new flooring in the living room this year, already booked for next year
Another great stay in a fantastic lodge, clean and well presented throughout in an amazingly peaceful location.
Kitchen is very well equipped but with a couple of minor points. The bowls are tiny and need deeper ones for cereal and porridge. The cutting knives are all extremely blunt and difficult to cut anything with, needs a knife sharpener. The pans are all scraped to hell and the none stick coating scraped off by people using forks, this can be dangerous to ingest. I’d invest in a new set of aluminium pans if I was the owner and ditch all the none stick. Also a lack of large cooking pots for cooking anything of volume. The TV position is also too high on the wall and you need to crick your neck to watch it, I’d lower it down. All minor quibbles though the lodge is great and super clean! It would be ideal and idyllic if there was a hot tub on the decking next to the river, plenty of space for one!
We have stayed at Jinnyspinner since 2024 so this is our third visit to this fantastic lodge.
This year we stayed for 2 wonderful weeks. We have already booked our holiday for next year and are again staying for 2 weeks. The lodge is stunning and the location is perfect! The ducks are there every morning which is a pure joy, we have seen deer crossing the beck and a variety of beautiful birds. The cheeky squirrels also make an appearance every day. The facilities inside the lodge are fantastic and it’s literally like a home from home. Thank you Jinnyspinner for another amazing holiday we can’t wait to come back next year ❤️
This is one of our favourite lodges, love the location within Limefitt, right by the river the only one looking over are the sheep.
The lodge is very clean and well maintained.
We Spent many happy times at the old Jinnyspinner so this was our first time in the new upgraded lodge.
It is a lot larger and beautifully furnished inside love the position of this right on the beck - the weather was kind to us considering it was early March revisited some local walks and generally had a lovely time. Highly recommendeed
We have been before to the lodge very nice and comfortable just needs a few tweaks
Our 3rd time in jinnyspinner after the makeover a few years ago , up to the usual high standard everything catered for even with not the best of weather the lodge was warm and comfortable can’t fault anything really , looking for next year but trying for the summertime
Loved staying for the third time.
Comfortable well stocked. As I’ve said before an extra toilet roll in each bathroom missing, also as it is a family size lodge ,, more dishwasher tablets. Small things but make a difference. Hope to stay again.
Our stay was amazing, everything you have at home, is at the the lodge.
It was our 2nd time at The Jinnyspinner. We have also booked twicw again for next year. The lodge was very clean, and tidy, thanks to Kate, who prepares it for the next booking, excellent. We've stayed in many lodges which where to a good standard, but The Jinnyspinner is exceptional. Inside and out. The outside space is huge compared to other lodges. Pictures on the advert don't do it justice. Plus the aspect of the toughened glass on the beck side of the decking is lovely. Watching and hearing it flow by is so tranquil. Wild life in abundance, so many small birds, kingfisher, heron even an otter. We are so looking forward to are next 2 holidays, next year at The Jinnyspinner. Regards Gary.
Beautiful lodge with stunning views.
I would highly recommend a week staying here and a visit to the Haybarn is a must
The location and views make this lodge special, even during a very wet week.
Problem with washing machine but sorted very quickly.
I paid for a break for my extended family and I; they arrived before I did and called me to say how amazing it was.
We ventured out during the day but most evenings came back to sit on the decking with a drink whilst listening to the stream, it's such a peaceful location / park. The only negative I had was that I could not get wifi at all, even using the paid service, so being awake for hours with only a few tv channels was not great (and nothing to do with the lodge, of course), but next time I will take a book! The furniture and beds are all extremely comfortable and the kitchen has every utensil you could think of. Overall, a very lovely, high standard of lodge and we loved every second of our stay!
We had another fantastic stay in Jinnyspinner and really didn’t want to leave.
The lodge is absolutely stunning and the view is breathtaking so much so that we’re already booked for next year for 2 weeks, we’re literally going to be counting down the weeks. The weather was perfect too which just topped it off brilliantly for us. The only concern we had was that the carpet is coming away between the living room area and the kitchen which meant the grippers were sharp in some areas and one of our dogs cut their paw. He was absolutely fine and we can’t wait to return to our happy place ♥️
I’m delighted you’ve had a great stay at the lodge and even more delighted you are coming back. Thank you for alerting us about the issue with the flooring. This is the flooring the lodge came with and we are looking to change it throughout so hopefully it will be different by the time you return.
Ye had a lovely stay 3rd time here lovely lodge home from home just one small gripe feel like carpets need cleaning bit grubby
2nd stay for us as we absolutely loved the lodge the first time we stayed.
Second visit we were a bit disappointed the sofa had a broken leg it had been propped up but as soon as you sat on it, it collapsed. Not great when 5 of us staying there. Cleanliness was definitely not up to standard this year & I agree with another reviewer a hosepipe on outside would be great especially if you have dogs. The decking area needed a good clean & so did the windows. Still love the lodge & the location just felt it was a bit tired this time.
The property was wonderful We loved it we liked the position the cabin was was private as we don't live near any body and the views of country and wild life was lovely Every thing we needed we will definatley come back next year
I’m so pleased you had such a lovely stay. Jinnyspinner enjoys a very special and private position on the park next to the river
My happy place.
Luxurious lodge in the most beautiful setting. Perfect place to recharge
How lovely. I’m pleased you live Jinnyspinner so much. It is our happy place too.
The lodge is beautiful.
Really comfortable and homely. The outside area has lovely seating areas. We had a wonderful weekend stay here. My only criticism would be that the decking needs a good clean and it would be useful to have a hose outside to encourage pet owners to wash down the decking after pets. Also the gate did not close properly so this could do with being repaired. Other than that it was wonderful and would definitely return to stay.
The lodge was beautiful, well equipped, very spacious, large decking and a stunning view.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and wouldn't hesitate on rebooking. The cleanliness was a decent standard but could have been improved, ie windows dirty, decking area dirty, found things down bedside cabinets, but the general clean was OK. Sofa quite uncomfortable but all in all a beautiful place to stay and great location.
Thank you very much for your feedback which I have passed on to the cleaner and maintenance. We try very hard to ensure the lodge and decking are perfect for all our guests with the windows and decking cleaned every fortnight.
Absolutely perfect.
Best lodge I have ever stayed at. Thankyou
Absolutely Beautiful.
This is our 2nd time at Jinnyspinner. It's beautiful inside & out.
We love Jinnyspinner- have visited several times both before and after the new lodge was installed and have always enjoyed our stay.
Our favourite location on Limefitt , thankyou!
Excellent facilities and the lodge was beautiful
Unfortunately the heated towel rail in en-suite bathroom didn’t work so it was very cold in there.
I was surprised by how well it was fitted out, the kitchen is really well stocked with everything you could need.
It is beautiful and extremely comfortable, I would happily recommend it to anyone and would go back there knowing it would be a magical experience. On our last day looking out over the fields we saw a deer grazing. The site is also well maintained and the staff are very friendly.
Parking is ample, several steps gains access to property, and a very large decking area, which the pictures dont give justice to it , decking floor and structure is excellent, which as a large glass section to view the stream that runs past, outside furniture is excellent.
Lodge inside is amazing very clean, modern and everything you would need , just like home. There is also a washer/dryer which is not mention in lodge description. I've stayed in many lodges over 15years and this is by far the best. On the 1st day we booked for September 2025, it's that good. Absolute credit to the owners
Lovely lodge, perfect location, we have stayed at Limefitt for a number of years and this lodge has got to be the best one we stayed at.
Dogs loved it, 2 Chow Chows, one 6 years old and the other 12 mths old, there was plenty of space for both of them. They loved the decking and the glass fence, saw 2 otters and 2 ducks swimming along of river, it was the baby dog that alerted us of the otters. Would definitely book again.
We had a lovely time again at Limefitt with our best friends from Shropshire , the accommodation at Lodge was first class , which is down by the stream where we saw many juvenile fish , a whopper of a trout and an otter + next door the bird feeder was busy with birds and squirrels ,if god spares us we’ll be back next year
Second time we’ve stayed in the Jinnyspinner this year absolutely amazing right on the beck, couldn’t be situated any better, best lodge we’ve ever stayed in and we’ve stayed in a few would recommend definitely 5 star.
Hope to return in the near future.
Lovely clean spacious lodge with gorgeous outdoor area in a quiet location on the park,lovely to relax in after a long days walk.
The lodge has everything you need if I had to nit pick one thing if would be shortage of glasses. The lodge also has a washing machine which was an added bonus.i would definitely return to this lodge and also recommend it. 5
Wow is all I can say.
Stunning property Has everything you need. So well equipped
Wonderful lodge, couldn't fault it in any way.
The best lodge we've stayed in!
Jinnyspinner is a fantastic lodge in a stunning location, without a doubt the best lodge on Limefitt Park it’s our 6th year there and we have had a wonderful time so much so we’re already booked for next year, we only come in August as a rule but made an exception this year as we desperately wanted to stay there, we’re back in August at a different lodge but made sure we secured Jinnyspinner for August 2025 , I hope everyone who has the pleasure of staying there loves her as much as we do ❤️
Wow!
what an amazing lodge everything you need it was absolutely fantastic, best lodge I have ever stayed in, couldn’t be situated in a better place on the beck, not over looked, didn’t want to leave. Hopefully we’ll return soon 5 ⭐️
I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay at Jinnyspinner so much. I hope the weather was good to you too. Look forward to welcoming you back.
third time here.
absolutely wonderful lodge in stunning location. sometimes words cannot describe the experience. all round plus,plus,plus !!!
Enjoyed our stay and will book again Thank you
We look forward to welcoming you back to Jinnyspinner.
Great location and lovely place to stay, excellent facilities.
Would not change anything.
Thank you for your positive feedback. I’d delighted you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back to Jinnyspinner.
We absolutely loved our stay, the lodge is perfect and we will definitely be back.
I’m delighted you had such a lovely stay. Look forward to welcoming you back.
Hi, just like to say thank you for a lovely weekend away stay with the family.
We have stayed in the old jinnyspinner what we enjoyed but wow the lodge has got to be the best on site now. Very modern with outstanding views of the river and hills. Will be coming back in the summer hopefully for another weekend
The upgrade on the lodge was better than the pictures on line alot of work gone into making it a lodge I would visit again ,looking at booking for summer next year instead of the usual November dates , already recommended to a friend who’s used the lodge
Loved it.
I rent lodges at Limefitt twice a year, This is the best yet. Remember the original Jinnyspinners. Comfortable, but usable.
Really pleased you like the upgraded lodge. Was worried we would lose the charm of the original Jinnyspinner but we’ve personally been delighted with it.
Excellent lodge with all the facilities (and more) needed for a perfect holiday.
Beautiful property in stunning location and not too far from the local towns.
Even the 14 hour power cut didn’t put a dampener on our stay.
I’m glad you enjoyed your stay and that the power cut did not spoil your enjoyment. Quite unprecedented and at least it wasn’t winter!
We have stayed in many lodges at the Lakes.
Jinnyspinner was by far the nicest. Great position on a lovely quiet site. Fantastic view. Outside area is beautiful. Inside is spacious, clean and contemporary with comfy beds, great showers, well equipped kitchen. They was nothing we didn't have. No expense has been spared and it shows. 5 star lodge and we will definitely be coming again. I've already checked availability for next half term. Many thanks, Joanne and family (11th-18th Aug 2023)
We had the most relaxing stay at the beautiful Jinnyspinner Lodge.
It was immaculate and clean with high spec facilities, it felt like a wonderful, luxury home from home. We can't wait to go back.
A beautiful lodge in a superb location.
Everything you need for a Home from Home holiday, only thing missing was placemats (we were hyper about your beautiful table). The decking area is completely secure for small children and dogs and very peaceful. Thank you for providing us with this accommodation we will definitely book again.
Thank you for your feedback. I’m delighted you enjoyed Jinnyspinner. Placemats are on order
Fabulous lodge in a beautiful setting.
Stayed at Limefitt many times in beautiful lodges but this one is first class.
Thank you for your very kind comments. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We hope to welcome you back.
Absolutely beautiful lodge in a stunning location.
Loved that the outside was secure for our dog and two year old. The lodge was so well equipped for cooking and we felt like it was home away from home. Thankyou
Thank you for your kind comments. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We hope to welcome you back.
Lovely location cosy place to stay
Thank you for taking the time to submit your valued feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay in Jinnyspinner and look forward to welcoming you back should you decide to visit again in the future.
Absolutely beautiful lodge!
The location was fantastic just a few minutes drive away from Windermere. The lodge is located right next to the river and isn't overlooked by any of the other lodges which is lovely. The whole stay was lovely. Lodge was really cosy and comfortable for the whole family (5 adults and a dog) highly recommend
We enjoyed a lovely week in Jinnyspinner Lodge.
It must have the best position on the park, overlooking the stream below and open fields in front. Lodge was very comfortable, cosy and well equipped. Comfy beds, great showers and a beautiful deck with outdoor furniture that we all napped on at one time or another during our stay! We found some easy and some challenging walks from the park, we took the walkers boat tickets from the pier at Ambleside and enjoyed a lovely walk down the west side of Windermere. The Kirkstone Pass down to Glenridding is a lovely drive and Keswick and Bowness are both nice towns to wander around. All in all a very pleasant week, we hope to be back one day.
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Jinnyspinner. We look forward to welcoming you back to stay again.
Lovely site and position, with a huge outside decking area, although the lodge is tired, and in need of refurb.
Damp and mould in various places. Lodge not cleaned thoroughly for our arrival. These things didnt spoil our holiday but need to be noted. Issue with microwave which was replaced very quickly by lakedistrict lodge holidays.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Jinnyspinner. We are sorry that you found issues with the cleaning, had this been reported during your stay, we would have attended the property to rectify this. We will ask the housekeeping/ maintenance team to look into the other issues that you have mentioned. We hope to welcome you back to the Lake District again.
The lodge was beautiful we couldn't ask for a better position on the site,it was so cosy even had a Christmas tree,and fantastic views highly recommended.
Thank you for the superb review, Mr Smith. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at this fantastic lodge and would highly recommend - thank you. We hope to welcome you again soon.
Over all the stay was good apart from the weather I think the cabin could do with refreshing and the cleaning improved especially right now.
Peaceful location only a short drive to all the lakes, Been to Limefitt many times but not with our grandchildren, Although a quiet location surprisingly they loved it.
We’ll be back soon.
As always, our stay at Limefitt was wonderful.
The sad thing about it is the price increases for the 2022 holidays mean that we will be unlikely to use Lake District Holidays again .
Thank you for the review, Mr Speight. Whilst delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay, we note your further comments and we can tell you that 2022 prices have not yet been set. The prices are being reviewed and you should see changes in the coming weeks. Jinnyspinner is a cosy three bedroom holiday lodge, the perfect place to relax and unwind.
The lodge was lovely, so cosy & perfect for relaxing.
Perfect location on the park the river is just so peaceful and tranquil.
Thank you for the great comments, Miss Henricks. We are delighted to hear you had an enjoyable stay and we look forward to welcoming you again very soon.
We loved the lodge and had a wonderful few days there.
Would definitely go again
Thank you for your lovely review. The lodge is in an ideal location and provides a great base for visiting the local area. We do hope you will return and have another fantastic stay with us.
What a lovely relaxing place, the lodge was a little dated but clean and had everything we needed.
A lovely relaxing weekend by the river watching the wild life and relaxing. We have already booked to go back later this year.
A favourite family getaway
Beautiful location, quiet and homely, comfortable lodge. 10 min drive to Ambleside or Windermere/Bowness. 3 generations of my family, young to old love coming here and there is something for all. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Peace and quiet. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? The walk along Troutbeck valley from the back of the Hay barn is lovely and very conveniently almost ends at the nearest pub to Limefitt!
an excellent weekend.
We stayed here over easter weekend 2014 and loved it. Very clean , staff were very good , location was spot on. Although the lake district was busy, its not hard to find some quiet walks. Windermere was to busy. Walked up catbells, amazing. Walked round rydal lake and walked up to waterfalls near by. Cant wait to return. Thank you. What did you enjoy most about your stay? quiet and good location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? walk up catbells, amazing view
Great stay
What a lovely place, the location is stunning and the location is great! The addition of the use of the low wood health center and the pub on site makes it a real gem.

Short summer break with the kids
Best location on the park I'd say, totally relaxing and looking to visit again before the year is out. The lodge was really well equipped, beds super comfortable, and overall quite spacious. The hay barn was pretty good on site for food, only slight negatives were that the barbeque was "tired" so we decided not to use it, and there were dark presumably pet hairs in the carpet in the lounge, only Made visible when walked on...it had not been properly hoovered. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Great location of the lodge, and the peace and quiet. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Alcock Tarn walk which starts from the white swan in Grasmere.
A beautiful Lodge
This is a beautiful Lodge in a beautiful setting. The balcony overlooking the beck was exceptional, and there was lots of wildlife visitors. Just a couple of minor points, the pillows were rather hard and uncomfortable, and a BT Hub with a half decent broadband connection wouldn't go amiss. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location, & the weather What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Fell foot park on a good day, Hawkeshead is very nice.
Weekend at Jinnyspinner

Week end retreat
Had a wonderful weekend. All 6 of us enjoyed it. I do want to re book just haven't got around to it and will hopefully in the next 2 weeks. Great location next to the river. Central heating was great. Only down side for us is that we all smoke. Smoking on the viranda outside we got soaked as there was no cover in this cabin, and it rained a lot. A nice heated area would make us come back every week and would make a difference, or definitely some shelter. Thanks for making the cabin nice and clean and warm. What did you enjoy most about your stay? That it was quiet What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk into trout beck village
Relax
You can't help but relax. Great stay at the Jinnyspinner lodge. Great accommodation and very comfortable. The location in the heart of the lakes make this a great place to stay. Would definitely go again. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location. It didn't take long to get to either Windermere or Ambleside.

Fantastic weekend away !!!!!
My partner, myself and our dog stayed here for 2 nights. A short break away without our 7 year old son. Wish he had been with us though, as he would of loved it. The lodge had the best location in the park, situated next to the beck. The lodge was very clean and warm. It was very comfortable and felt some homely. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and did not want to leave. We definitely will return. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Spending the days out walking and returning to our lovely accommodation.

Excellent
Beautiful and very relaxing place to stay. Very nice, clean, comfortable lodge, wonderful views. Staff very helpful and polite, wish to stay longer. ?? What did you enjoy most about your stay? Relax, views, quietness What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Day out
Such a good time despite weather.
Our first impressions were great. Position of lodge on site is excellent: beside the beck and in a corner. Lovely daffodils and trees. The inside of the lodge appeared clean and modern. Howevere we discovered mouse droppings behind the microwave, then on the floor in several places. We appreciate that we are in the countyside but the lodge was supposed to be inspected before we arrived. When checking for more droppings, we found that underneath the bunk beds was filthy. Later we found that the 2 single beds looked like they had been slept in i.e. hairs and fluff. When we called the helpline, a person arrived very quickly and cleaned the lodge thoroughly. He was polite and friendly. Later that day, we discovered that if we had the dishwasher on, the electricity kept going off. We eventually found the outside box and used a knife to get into it as there was no screwdriver provided! We did not want to complain anymore so decided not to use the dishwasher any more. This was not a hardship but had been one of th factors when booking the lodge. Overall we had a fantastic stay and these were minor niggles that were sorted out quickly. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Spending time with family in beautiful surroundings. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Outside hot tub at Low Wood Hotel! Great view of lake.
Family get together
Limefitt Park is a lovely park where families can book separate lodges but still spend time together. We booked the Jennyspinner Lodge (one of the older lodges) and right next to the river. It was cosy which was just as well as it rained for the entire duration of our weekend stay. The beds were very comfortable and its location next to the river and far from the entrance and bar meant that it was very quiet. We used the car to get out and about except on the Sunday evening when we walked to the Mortal Man for a huge and delicious dinner. We used the shop and found it stocked most of what we needed. All in all a very easy and relaxing weekend. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Opportunity to be located close to other family What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Low Wood Hotel (great cafe) and marina (waterskiing)
2nd visit to Jinnyspinner Lodge
This was our 2nd visit to Jinnyspinner, which is in a beautiful location. Sadly the lodge and some of the kitchen utensil were not as clean as they could have been, some of the windows had cobwebs! Maybe the cleaners have changed? Which is a pity as the lodge at our last visit was spotless. Other than that we had an enjoyable break. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Peace & Quiet What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Nothing really outshines anything, enjoy the whole of the English Lake District
Retreat
Lodge was ready, prepared. Had nice weather and had a nice time walking with the dog. It was quiet at night with no distractions. The lodge was warm and very clean. All on the complex were friendly, even other guests. It is dog friendly which is something that attracted me here. Plenty to do here, and I will probably book again some time soon if get the chance. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Quietness What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Going up to unseated on the kirks tone pass
Perfect spot to enjoy the Lakes.
This was our 3rd visit to Jinnyspinner as we love the area so much. The cabin is comfortable and homely and in an amazing spot in the park, beautifully quiet apart from the sound of the river, which we love! Wake up to a heron fishing in the river, spend the day walking or catching fish in your net down at the river pool (where my children played for hours), watch the bats at dusk and if you're lucky - as we were this time - watch a badger from the cabin windows! The staff on the park are extremely friendly and helpful and the cabin is well-appointed and practical with plenty of hot water to ease aching muscles. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Our challenge this time was Scafell Pike (with 8 and 11 year olds) so we were pretty chuffed with that! What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? One? Townend (NT) is fantastic, Helm Crag is a perfect 'first mountain' for younger ones!
short break in jennyspinner

Brilliant family holiday
We had a great family holiday, lovely spacious accommodation in a quiet tranquil setting.Lots to do in the area and our dog Pedro especially liked it! Will definitely be returning to the Jinnyspinner! The only thing I will mention is the meals are not as good as they used to be at the Haybarn Restaurant which is such a shame!

Great lodge in an excellent location on an excellent park
The lodge is very spacious and well laid out, with great features, such as a dish washer. It is in a quiet location on the park, so ideal for just relaxing. There were one or two niggles, such as the radiator in the ensuite bathroom not working, but Lake District Lodge Holidays were excellent and arranged for everything to be fixed as quickly as possible. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The location on the park meant that it is very quiet and ideal for just relaxing and chilling out. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Sitting on the decking, listening to the beck....... and nothing else.
Great place to stay--we loved it!
A wonderful hub for our holiday with our four young children--the living room was a great gathering place, the two bathrooms were very helpful, the river out back was beautiful (although we did have to remind our children not to get IN the river more than once!), and the location was perfect. Loved it! What did you enjoy most about your stay? location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Beatrix Potter's farm residence

Lovely Christmas stay at Jinnyspinner
Enjoyed our Christmas in your warm and cosy lodge in spite of the sometimes wild weather outside.We were very lucky not to be affected by the dreadful floods in other areas not that far away. We managed a walk to Ambleside and back on Christmas eve without getting wet! Lodge very well equipped, clean and comfortable. The Christmas lights and tree were an added bonus. We must have had the best position on Limefitt next to the beck. Overall a very enjoyable stay, hope to be back.
A pleasant stay
We had a lovely stay at the Jinnyspinner Lodge. Rooms were clean and comfortable, a range of DVDs, books and toys were available - which was a nice touch - and I appreciated the domestic essentials that were supplied (soap, loo roll, dishwasher tablets etc) My only criticism was that at What did you enjoy most about your stay?

lovely peaceful stay
Been to jinnyspinner about 6 times now. They made a,lot of improvements, lovely new suite, new bathroom, bedroom carpet, the door to the lake gives much better view. I don't know if they have changed mattress on main double bed I normally sleep very well but it was just too hard so I had to move to the single room. Maybe a topper could be provided, otherwise all good What did you enjoy most about your stay? location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? drive to grassmere
Already booked to return in September
Had a lovely stay, only problem being the heating not working on arrival, but soon sorted out.

The location and overall feel of the lodge What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk at Skelthwaite Bridge
A fabulous weekend in an immaculate lodge in an excellent location
We had a fabulous weekend in Jinnyspinner Lodge. The site was immaculate as was the lodge in a quiet corner location overlooking the stream. There was everything we needed as the lodge was well equipped and spacious with a wonderful outside balcony with table and chairs that we were able to make full use of as we had unexpectedly good weather! A perfect place to come back to and relax after our dog walks ... Heaven! What did you enjoy most about your stay? The peaceful location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk from Ambleside to Grasmere and also the walk up Kirkstone pass.

Fantastic break with our doggie.
Just returned from a fabulous break at Jinny spinner lodge. We have stayed at the park before but this was our first stay at this lodge. The lodge was clean and well equipped.

Love Jinnyspinner!

JinnySpinner Stay
Another visit to JinnySpinner, just as cosy,lodge might not be as modern as others we have stayed in, but it's in a superb position by the river, probably the best in the park. Lodge would still benefit from having a washing machine. Limefitt is a lovely park, but it would be greatly improved by replacing The Haybarn with a much better pub. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location on lodge What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walk around Elterwater
Another successful Lakes trip
The lodge probably has the best location on the park and is well placed to access this side of the Lake District. Inside provided plenty of space for a family including 2 children and a big dog. Warm and cosy for autumn and a great deck for the summer, that will be private even at busy times in summer (unlike many of the lodges there). Why stay in a timber lodge in the Lakes that try What did you enjoy most about your stay? The scenery.....it?s the Lakes What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Get out walking, do at least one mountain, even a small one.
Gorgeous traditional lodge in a perfect location!
We had an amazing time at Jinnyspinner. We have now stayed in a few different lodges managed by lake district lodge holidays and haven't been disappointed yet. On arrival the lodge was lovely and clean. The wooden interior would make it perfect for a Christmas stay. The outdoor area is beautiful and in the Summer it would be perfect for sitting outside with a glass of fizz. It is right by the beck - the water was so clear you could see the massive fish swimming below and we even saw deer in the field opposite. Our dog, Barney, had a fantastic time and enjoyed a run around the dog field on the park. We would definitely recommend booking with Lake District Lodge Holidays and would 100% stay at Jinnyspinner again. Thank you for a super holiday. Next time I think we'll look at booking for a week instead of only a few days. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Family time, peace and tranquillity. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Wandering around the park to see all the wildlife.
Jinneyspinners Lodge
The lodge was still being cleaned when we arrived right on 3 o'clock but we only had to wait 5 minutes. The previous occupants had reported that there was a problem with the top two steps on the access stair and as we were unpacking one of the site staff arrived and replaced the faulty steps within 20 minutes, we had not even noticed that there was a problem. The lodge was clean, warm and had everything we could have wanted to enjoy our stay. We have stayed before on Limefitt but this is the first time in this particular Lodge and would not hesitate to book it again. Dog friendly pub on site is excellent and the staff are fantastic with both us and our dog, we were really made to feel at home there. The only negative we have about the park is the dog park which is always wet and not very appealing to take your dog to. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The walking and the relaxing location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Walks
Perfect location, very comfortable well equipped lodge
We have stayed at Jinnyspinner many times before. It is our favourite lodge and we shall keep coming back! What did you enjoy most about your stay? Comfort within the lodge and views What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? walking
Brilliant
My wife and I decided to stay at the Jinnyspinner lodge based off of other people's reviews and we were not disappointed. The lodge was warm, inviting and clean when we arrived. Situated right on the bank of a stream called The Trout Beck, it looked almost idyllic. Location was excellent with everywhere within a 5-10 minute drive. We will definitely be staying here again in the near future. What did you enjoy most about your stay?

Enjoyable
Quite disappointed , on arrival we received a telephone call to say that the cleaner was running late and that the lodge would not be ready for another half hour. At the moment of receiving the call we had just arrived on site for our 6th visit. We brought along our 2 Cocker Spaniels, who realising where they were, got very excited and had to be taken out of the car and walked around for the half hour. The cleaner did apologise, and we realise that it wasn't her fault, maybe her total workload is too much for the time allocated?? When we accessed the lodge everywhere was clean, and my wife decided to make a brew. When she looked in the cupboard there was only one cup! On searching round we found the rest, with various other crockery/cutlery items still in the dishwasher!! Unfortunately one cup had been put in the wrong way round and was full of water, when the cup was moved all the water spilled on the floor which of course had to be cleaned up!! Overall the lodge was what we expected and up to its usual standard, and we totally enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately there was also an issue with the sewerage system to the whole site, and a large pumping machine and tractor had to use the parking area for the lodge. The operatives were there all day whilst we were out and still there on our return! They were very courteous and full of apologies and left site around 7.30pm. Maybe we were just a bit unlucky on this visit, but overall enjoyable as usual. What did you enjoy most about your stay? The Lake District as a whole & the lodge location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Everwhere
Jinnyspinner is like an old friend
Third time back to jinnyspinner and we love it . On arrival the lodge was immaculate and heating and lamps were on giving a lovley cosy vibe . Weather was a bit mixed but we still sat outside on the wonderful balcony admiring the views and listening to the bubbling brook beneath us . The dogs love the balcony and the glass panels , enabling them to sit and watch the river flow . We saw a water weasel one morning which was lovley. Jinny could do with a new hoover and a long handled brush and pan for the kitchen so guests can keep her nice and clean . The decking gets very skippy when wet so maybe a sign on the gate would be beneficial. The location of the lodge is fantastic. The camp is only a few mins drive to Windermere which is where the shops are. Jinnyspinner is like an old friend to us and we hope to return again soon . Xx What did you enjoy most about your stay? Sitting outside enjoying the sound of the river . What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Beatrice potter hill top cottage
Amazing break
Myself my husband and our 2 dogs stayed here at Jinnyspinner lodge for a weekend, what can I say .. absolutely beautiful, we loved every minute of our stay the lodge is so lovely and the decking is fantastic with a view over the river. The club is brilliant with lovely food too , first time we have taken our dogs in pubs and it was good they made them very welcome. Can't wait to come back What did you enjoy most about your stay? Every bit of it What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? We went to the lake for the day it was lovely
Beautiful location, but the logde felt tired inside.
The lodge felt tired in decor and found clumps of hair in the bedsheets and on the floor. It really felt as if it needed a good, deep clean. The location and outside space...fantastic. My son scalded his arm on the hot pipework in the ensuite shower too.

A great,relaxing holiday.
We stayed in Limefitt Park last year and enjoyed it so much that we booked Jinnyspinner this year. The park is only a short ride to Windermere/Bowness and is very quiet, even in the evenings. The ferry across Windermere was not in service while we were here but you can still manage to cross the Lake by launch for a relaxing walk to Wray Castle (about 41/2 miles each way). In Bowness visit the Chocobar caf What did you enjoy most about your stay? The Lodge had everything needed and the walks showed the beautiful Lakes. The weather helped by being brilliant. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? The walk alongside Lake Windermere, as it is an easy walk for anyone.

A short review
Wow!! Welcomed to Jinnyspinner by the sounds of water...a beautiful balcony overlooking a river...perfect location!! Jinny spinner lodge itself was a beautiful and cosy hideaway. My 3 children and our dogs all had a fantastic time. Superb location. All staff on site were extremely friendly and welcoming. Locally, the Queens Head pub is a must!! The owners Sam and Mark welcome everyone like a long lost relative!! I can't say anything negative about Limefitt or Jinnyspinner....except we didn't want to come home!!!! Thankyou What did you enjoy most about your stay? The quiet position of the lodge. Easy access to visit most areas. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? The Queens Head Pub. Great food. Lovely owners.
Relaxing Lakes Lodge Break
My family and I would be more than happy to visit this park and book the same lodge again in the future. The park is idealy sited enabling trips and activities to be undertaken with ease and conveniance. As for the lodge, its set overlooking the river and fields with a large balcony, allowing the oportunity to enjoy the views over both. The lodge is spacious inside and well equiped, we had no issues at all with its cleanliness or the maintenance standards of the lodge and its contents. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Scenery and local walks. What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests? Any of the lakes boat tours, beautiful scenery and very relaxing.

Patio area with comfy patio furniture. Great local pub The Queens Head.
Weekend break with dogs
Had another lovely break at Limedfitt park even though a few issues with Jinny Spinner. We're stayed in this lodge a number of times over the last few years and always enjoyed our stays, but we have noticed that the last two times we have been disappointed with certain things i.e bed linen in double room past its best, one of the pillowcases badly ripped, also no pillows protectors, mattress protector does not fit the bed and also ripped. In the kitchen the tea towel provided was badly stained on arrival. The reason why we still book for this lodge as we have for September 2019 is largely down to the location otherwise we would probably try one of the other lodges in the park. What did you enjoy most about your stay? Location What one experience (e.g attraction, walk, day out) would you recommend for our future guests?

We had a lovely long weekend in the Jinnyspinner Lodge and would absolutely love to return in the future. The location was perfect with walks available in the local area with a lovely pub. It was a lovely setting by the river Plenty of space for 6 people and a dog. The lodge was clean but there was a smell of dog when we arrived. If you don't have a dog you may be put off by this. We could have done with a couple more toilet rolls with there been 6 of staying. We think it would look great we some more lights outside for the evening as we were struggling to see with the one light.
