Robin's Nest Reviews

Superb!! What a wonderful holiday retreat . Beautifully clean and comfortable with everything and more, you could possible need whilst enjoying a relaxing holiday. With views of Windermere and the area being outstandingly stunning, start to finish the entire holiday was 5. Our hosts even text me to say we could book in 3 hours earlier than expected! Little touches like that make it extra special. Will definitely be going back and will share with friends & family how special the Lodge is. Very well done Robins Nest

Albert

Lovely comfortable lodge and very clean ,would stay here again.

We couldn't have been more comfortable at Robins Nest. Great location, extremely clean and had everything you could think of to make our stay feel home from home. The toy box was a real hit with our 2 young girls. We would definitely love to return.

Christopher

I booked Robin's Nest for my parents for my mum's 75th birthday. They had a very peaceful and enjoyable stay and were delighted with how spotlessly clean the lodge was and all the lovely little touches from the owners. They're already planning their next visit!

Elizabeth

Very comfortable with everything you could need. Lovely situation in the Lakes. Would highly recommend.

The cottage itself was lovely comfortable and clean. The contents left in the cupboards for our use were above and beyond our expectations.

A lovely lodge and well presented. An ideal location for exploring the Lake District. A pity that the service from Sykes holidays was poor.

We have been coming to whitecross bay for over 15 years, I have to say Rabins Nest is the BEST Lodge we have been in, facilities 1010 Clenlyness 1010, Facilities 1010, in general everything was 100 well done owners, we will be back.

Property was clean, well equipped and comfortable. The photos reflected exactly what we found. Bowness 71 was what to look for on entering site. The site map provided by reception was helpful in locating the property. Conveniently close to lakeside.

One of the best lodges Ive stayed in would recommend.

Robins Nest was beautiful and we had a lovely stay there. The owners have thought of absolutely everything to ensure staying there will be just perfect. Well definitely booking it again and give it 5 Stars!!!!!

Absolutely beautiful well presented everything you could possible need , in a great location very modern lovely decking area, short walk to lake and all amenities.

Chanelle

We stayed at Robins nest for 3 nights,it is an absolutely beautiful lodge,loads of lovely little touches,we didnt need for anything as the owners had thought of it all. It was the best place we have ever stayed,amazing views from the Lodge,a minute walk to the lake and lovely and quiet.Had lots of wildlife visit us too.Thank you for an amazing stay x

After a long stormy drive of storm Amy we finally got to robins nest, what a lodge, it was amazing. It was so clean and after a very long drive the beds were so comfortable, the whole lodge was full of home comforts great view of lake and we fully enjoyed our stay and we will return at some point. Thank you from the Dorset clan

Robin's Nest was a lovely Lodge is close to shores of Lake Windermere. The Lodge is comfortable, very clean and everything you need is provided. It is just like being at home. The Park itself is clean and well maintained and is peaceful. A short stroll from the Lodge takes you to the shore of the Lake where you can sit at a picnic table and enjoy the beautiful scenery and if weather permits see the gorgeous sunset. If you are looking for a Lodge holiday and enjoy peace and quiet I would highly recommend White Cross Bay.

Luxurious! Garry and carol had thought of everything. We had taken cleaning products and tea coffee etc and it had all been provided. even dvds and games. What a spotless clean place, couldn't fault anything, would highly recommend this place.

Nasreen

Wow! What a beautiful, spacious lodge. Very well maintained and very cosy, we couldnt fault anything. It was spotlessly clean, beds were so comfortable, lots of hot water and a very well equipped kitchen! The owners had even, very kindly, left milk in the fridge for that much needed cup of tea after a long journey! We would definitely stay here again. 1010 for everything.

We had a brilliant stay at Robin's nest. It was perfectly located with easy access to the cabin. Very clear instructions were available for all appliances and the place was well stocked with everything you'd need. It was beautifully decorated with many tasteful touches to make it feel like a home from home. Very comfortable. We would definitely recommend it and use it again!

Robins Nest is one of the best selfcatering accommodations we have stayed in. It had everything we needed, it is spacious, with a wellequipped kitchen, comfortable seating area and a lovely outdoor deck. The property is a credit to its owners and the cleaning company. Highly recommended

Stephen

Fantastic lodge, very contemporary. Everything that you would need for a holiday. 2 mins walk to lake edge and small marina. 5 mins walk to bar and social centre. Would have no hesitation In returning for future holidays. Thank you

Jennifer

Absolute gem of a find. Robins nest is truly a home from home with so many finishing touches in every Room. You really could not ask for anything more, It is one of the most relaxing breaks we have had. So much so I didnt want to leave!!! We will be back!! Thank you Robins Nest.

We had a lovely stay at this lodge. There was everything we needed, the beds were comfortable,and the kitchen was fully equipped. We also liked the location, as it is close to the lake and not far from the pool which we used daily. The place is quiet, and even if there are other lodges nearby, it wasn't busy at all and we still had our privacy. We would definitely come back again if it was a bit closer to our place Cardiff

Christine

The lodge was very clean and warm. It was exceptionally well equipped, everything that you would need. The park was quiet and well maintained. The lodge is conveniently placed to get to lots of places. Bowness and Ambleside just two lovely towns to visit. It was an excellent property and I would certainly recommend it.

We had an incredible fournight stay at Robins Nest Lodge. The photos are great to show it off, but being there wow it is perfection. A lot of thought has been put into making everyones stay as comfortable as possible. It was undoubtedly the cleanest lodge weve ever stayed in, and we of course treated it as if it were our own. The owners were very kind and responsive, and we had contact with them throughout our stay. Highly recommended!

Very nice lodge everything you want for a lovely holiday

This was our 3rd visit and it was just as good as the first visit, it was like home from home, l would definitely recommend staying at Robins Nest.

Dont usually do reviews but this place warrants one. Me and my to girls loved the place. Its large very clean and very comfortable. The girls even asked if they could take the beds home ha. The perfect stay. The only negative is that we didnt book to stay longer but will definitely be back

Gloria

Cannot fault the lodge and location within the site. Clean and comfortable, I will definitely look to book the lodge again if I am in the area. 2 minor pointers ... Small waste bins in bathrooms and maybe a nest of coffee tables in the lounge would be advantageous as the lounge is spacious and the one large coffee table doesn't serve both sofas adequately for comfort. However these minor points didn't affect our stay. Would recommend

Lovely property, exactly as advertised.

Lovely, cosy lodge. Very clean. Beds were very comfortable. Well equipped and has everything you can think of. Great selection of games,toys, and films for rainy days. Would recommend to family and friends

Lovely lodge in a good position on park, beds and sofas comfy everything you need in kitchen, decorated for Christmas which was an unexpected bonus, granddaughters loved the lodge and the games provided, quiet and cosy just what we needed.

Philip

Lovely lodge beautifully equipped and very comfortable. home from home. all credit to the owners who allowed us access to the lodge early much appreciated. keep up the good work

Victoria

Robins Nest at White Cross Bay was an absolutely beautiful Lodge. I came to stay for a week with my 9 year old, but sadly due to circumstances beyond my control had to leave early wednesday, i left the lodge as clean and tidy as i could but didn't get the chance to have a hoover around sorry The lodge itself was beautiful and in a great location on the park, which was also lovely. On arrival we found it to be immaculately clean, very spacious and had a homely feel. It was well equipped for absolutely everything and my son was over the moon to find it had lots of games, dvds, books etc to keep him entertained. Nothing to fault at all to be fair regards the Lodge, it was spot on, although maybe a hot tub on that lovely decking area would be perfect after a long day out walking maybe. Just to let you know that the toilet roll holder in the main bathroom was broken when we arrived, it wasn't us! Thanks for a lovely stay, i would definitely recommend Robins Nest to others and stay again one day.

The property itself was lovely. We bought a cafetiere and left it in the property because we're coffee lovers and there wasn't one when we arrived. Hopefully this will be appreciated by future visitors. The site was fine. Quite noisy in the evenings and the pool was absolutely rammed full so wasn't that enjoyable

Robins Nest is a lovely comfortable lodge with everything you need. Worked really well for 2 couples having the 2 bathrooms. It is in a great position on the park which is very well maintained. Would use again.

Daniel

Excellent lodge in a stunning location, plenty of room, clean and had everything you needed in the lodge. Kids enjoyed the added extras like games and added toys in the room. Short walk too from Brockhole for even more activities. Would definitely come back.

Andria

Lovely lodge, very clean and practical, well maintained. I would definitely recommend this lodge.

Jackie

Excellent lodge in a stunning location, spacious, clean, has everything you need for a great holiday. The added extras like games,book of walks etc show the personal touch which is really nice.

Brenda

Robins nest lodge was lovely, very homely and clean, loved how close it was to the lake, comfy beds and everything you needed for an amazing holiday. Thank you
