Shoreside Lodge Reviews

Another lovely stay in fab location. Good park location handy to get into town for shoos and restaurants Lodge is comfortable with everything you need though it is looking a bit tired in places. Everything you need in kitchen from fridge, washer, dishwasher etc and well equipped with everything you need to cook a meal. The addition of an air fryer would be a bonus. TBH cannot fault anything about this lodge if you like self catering and enjoy the freedom of being able to come and go with no restrictions. The bonus of having the verandah to sit on and admire the view has to be one of the plus points as it is literally on the lake so you definitely dont need to watch TV. A stunning lodge, with stunning view what is not to like which is why we return next year for our third time. Another fab memorable holiday in 2026 with exceptional weather to put the icing on the cake

Excellent lakeside property. Location Location Location as they say! Everything you need, well presented. Perfect!

We had a fabulous stay at shoreside lodge. The lodge was clean, comfortable and had everything needed for a short break. The view from the lodge is amazing, it was lovely to sit out on the deck and enjoy it. Would happily stay again.

Brilliant location right on the lakeside. Lovely and comfortable and cosy. Extremely clean and welcoming. Thoughtful touches like leaving water in the kettle ready for a well needed brew! Dishwasher tablets left which was brilliant as we forgot some. Highly recommended. Would love to stay again.

We went for a quiet weekend to celebrate birthdays and the weather was very good to us, first time back to Fallbarrow in 50 years, we will be back very soon. Shoreside Lodge was perfect on the lakeside.

Apart from no hot water for 1rst 24hrs our stay was excellent. The location was amazing being next to the lake. The quality of furnishings were of a high standard and I would recommend staying here to my friends and family. The hot water issue was resolved as soon as possible so all in all a great holiday

The fabulous location, the comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated accomodation guarantees a memorable break.

Lodge was cosy despite storm Amy! Comfortable and spotless with a beautiful view. Only 3 mugs just 2 of us, so not a problem but otherwise well equipped. Great that there is now a handrail on the steps from the road.

It was very beautiful out there and very comfortable. Everything you need is available in the lodge. I couldnt ask for anything extra. Highly recommended.

What a super place to stay! We had the best time. It was our first visit to the lakes and it did not disappoint. The lodge was clean and welcoming, and wow, what a fantastic location! The kids loved the access to the lake literally just outside, and the views from the sofa and decking were superb! It has everything we needed and even the beds and pillows were very comfortable. A short walk to shops and pubs very convenient. We had a small issue with the window handle on arrival, it had fallen off in the ensuite, but it didnt effect our stay, I just wanted to report it via the whats app chat but was told to contact the owner, which I didnt want to bother them with. Such a fantastic location and a wonderful stay despite storm Florin!! We are looking to book again!

Absolutely fab lodge from start to finish the view from the patio to the lake is out of this world the view is priceless. Lodge was fully equipped having everything you need to make it a home from home. Only issue is the second bathroom be good if the soap tray was a bit lower. The lodge is situated on the edge of the lake and 100 as described. It is short 10 min walk into town where you have a great choice of quality restaurants and a great shopping centre. We love Fallbarrow Park and a lodge holiday which is really like home from home but with a view but alternatively so near to a lot of other activities and places should you wish a more energetic holiday. Seriously did not want to leave going to miss my 5 am coffee sat on the patio enjoying that view of the lake. All in all a great holiday no complaints and a very lovely lodge. So much so got home last night and booked for a week in 2026 same place same lodge that speaks volumes. Well done Sykes for offering this accommodation. Two very happy holiday makers who returned home relaxed and chilled.

We loved our stay, The view was fantastic and the living room was big and comfortable. I am very sensitive to perfumes and scents which was an issue on the first night because bedding had a scent but we aired it and kept the bedroom window open all day which made the second and third night better. It would be better if the bedding was unscented. Everything else was perfect and we loved that there was a chess board and streaming Netflix on the smart TV allowed us to catch up on Squid Game after it got dark outside.

I was a little apprehensive as a couple of reviews commented on a smell. We found no issues at all. We loved the lodge a real home from home with the most stunning views to die for. We are aging guests and cannot wait to return.

We absolutely love Shoreside, this is our third visit now. We had intended on not coming anymore, as with most of the Lake District, a lot of it has become far too expensive. We only came back here because we found a late deal for half the price. Its a shame with what has happened to the Lakes, far too many people there now with too much money and who have no intention of going for walks, it has ruined it for the general population

Fantastic lodge for location, views, comfy, clean. Would definitely return. One and small downside is my husband had to work on the odd occasion and the wifi wasnt good at all. This would be a site problem Id think.

Had a great stay the views were amazing Lodge was comfortable and cleanish inside but outside in need of some tlc

What a beautiful view, dont think there could be a better spot in the Lake ... What a beautiful view, dont think there could be a better spot in the Lake District, and lodge was very comfortable and well kept

The stay was spoilt somewhat by the boiler not working on arrival Monday afternoon. It was not fixed until 24 hours later. The temperature in the lodge was freezing and this was coupled with no hot water etc. The boiler then went again on Thursday but at least this time it was fixed within a few hours of it being reported

Our visit was good but was marred by the electricity cut caused by the toaster ... Our visit was good but was marred by the electricity cut caused by the toaster and it took over 4 hours for somebody to fix it which was an external breaker switch apparently, while we were cold trying to keep warm with blankets

This lodge is in a beautiful location over looking the lake, plenty of kitchen utensils, pans etc. The bedrooms are quite small, but it is only 2 bedroom, unfortunately the main bedroom curtains had mould on them, this could be caused by the excessive wet weather they are currently experiencing. Our biggest dilemma where the stone steps, no hand rail on, and quite deep, and being disabled with disc trouble and with a walking stick, found them very difficult to get up and down, so that is a big no no for us, other than that to you havent go a disability then the lodge is perfect.

Lovely views of the Lake, Lodge was spotlessly clean, in a quiet position and ideal for what we wanted . We would recommend and hope to stay again in the future. The site itself is ideally situated with Bowness only a short walk away.

The accommodation is exactly like the photos. Superb location probably the best on the park for views as is right by the lake. The pubrestaurant and shop are a 5 minute walk from the lodge. This is a very clean and tidy lodgepark and has outstanding views. I would highly recommend this place! 1010

Great location, cosy and warm. Shame we didn't get to spend more time On the Deck

We had a great time for my 70th birthday. The place was very comfortable and very clean it had everything we needed. The only thing we found difficult was the steps to go to lodge they didn't have a rail. It would be helpful for us older people otherwise it was perfect

Hi , we could not connect the TV to the internet so no Netflix etc, some instruction's may be possible ? The outside furniture may need improvement as one of the rockers had a loose leg . On the the plus side, views fabulous ,a comfortable way to watch the wild life, spotlessly clean , very thing else we needed.

Great lodge in the best location right next to the lake.

Fabulous lodge and the Fabulous stay and couldn't get enough of the view. A parasol would be a helpful addition as the sun made a welcome appearance.

Could not fault the Lodge at all, it has absolutely everything you would want in a self catering accommodation. It was really clean and we felt comfortable as soon as we entered. The view from the lodge is like something on a landscape painting. Great break.

Had a lovely time staying in Shoreside Lodge. Fallbarrow Park is situated in a superb location, within easy walking distance of BarrowinFurness town centre, and the lodge location was about as good as it gets with superb views over Lake Windermere. It was comfortable and clean, and parking was easily accessible and close by. Unfortunately the lodge is let down by the condition of appliances. The gas oven doesn't stay lit and the boiler has leaks which caused it to shut down due to low pressure on the last night of our stay. I've seen the oven issue mentioned in other reviews, so this isn't an isolated incident. Lake District Lodge Holidays refused any kind of refund because I didn't call in time for them to address the problems. I did call, but the office was closed. There is an emergency number, but we'd been out all day and just wanted to eat, not wait in for a maintenance person to turn up. We'd bought food to cook but had to throw that away and eat out instead. I just wanted recompense for the extra cost incurred, but they refused. So yeh, they got me on a technicality, which is just bad customer service and the difference between me booking with them again and not booking with them again, just for the sake of a few quid. Very poor service.

Cannot fault the lodge. Access is via a few bankside steps mentioned in the listing. As pensioners we would have found a handrail useful.

I would like to give our holiday ten stars and ten stars for our lodge the lodge ... I would like to give our holiday ten stars and ten stars for our lodge the lodge was excellent and very cosy and the view and location was excellent,my only complaint won't be I wished we had booked for 2 weeks instead of one,we didn't want to leave,we will definitely be booking the same logged again for next year

No electricity in the lodge when we arrived and had to call the helpline provided who directed us to reception which was closed. We found the Fallbarrow Park maintenance man who kindly helped us. The lodge was lovely and clean with stunning views over the lake although smaller than we expected. Kitchen layout difficult to work with eg pots and pans difficult to access, we had to go on our hands and knees to reach them deep into an awkward cupboard. Oven and grill very poor and we gave up trying to use which was a problem as we were there for 7 days so maybe they should be replaced? Beds were comfy and we slept well. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed our time in Fallbarrow Park.

Beautiful lodge with a stunning location overlooking the lake. Well furnished. I would definitely return. Negatives Tall guests are advised to mind their head on the cooker hood, needs a few larger mugs and main bedroom smelled a bit dank.

Stayed six nights over the Christmas period, was happy to have a Christmas tree and garland a nice touch. . Kitchen very well equipped enough of everything. Cooked full Christmas dinner and had everything I needed.. The lodge was clean and the heating was on when we arrived. Lovely views and perfect location.

Was a stunning location, loved the interior esp the fireplace was really cozy. The info pack and board games was a nice touch. The facilities of the park site as well as the views couldn't have been better. The only things I feel could be improved on was could have done with some air freshners as feel was a bit stale. The smaller second bedroom could be cleaned a bit more in depth. But I would strongly recommend that in the smaller room the bed next to the wall to have a new mattress, it was sinking a lot in the middle and you could start to feel the springs poking through I do think this needs to be looked at as no matter how beautiful and lovely the place is when you don't have a good nights sleep it can affect you returning enjoying the place. If larger mugs were provided for tea coffee. The current mugs were tiny and would only really be half a mug of tea. MASSIVE teas drinkers here The facilities and equipment in the kitchen bar the mugs were excellent loved there was a decent fridge freezer. The dishes were beautiful! The location was so handy. To walk to Windermere town to explore was approx 23 mins. Am happy to say we have already rebooked and will be taking our kids along this time so really hoping the mattress is replaced for them. Can't wait for our next stay and possibly become our new yearly place to visit as we visit the Lakes once a year. I have already recommended this place to friends and I don't do that lightly. Thank you so much for a lovely stay

Hi great lodge we enjoyed our stay but the main shower in the main bathroom needs replacing as its constantly on hot on the mixer temp unable to turn the temp down. We had to use the other shower in the ensuite instead. Also the oven is really slow to cook food and probably needs upgradingreplacing. Apart from that we had a great time and enjoyed the lodge and location.

I enjoyed my holiday break very much and I hope to come back again. Thank you very much.
