Gerrida Lodge Reviews

Suzanne

Had an amazing few days at this beautiful lodge was spotlessly clean and everything you could wish for the view amazing overlooking the lake . Also the hot tub was lovely highly recommend this as a dog friendly break we will be back thankyou Tracey

Bethan

Decorated lovely for Christmas, very cosy and comfortable. The fridge wasnt working whilst there which the owner did best to rectify given time of year but the replacement wasnt sufficient either, owner did buy us lots of food for the inconvenience which was appreciated. Location was okay, bit too close to motorway as could hear the traffic when outside. Lake view was lovely. The description said swimming pool but Sykes didnt make clear this wasnt included in package and was very high extra charge from site.

Jennifer

It's the second time we have stayed at Gerrida Lodge and it's home from home. Tracey the owner has thought of everything you would need in the kitchen and whole lodge is just fabulous. It was nice and relaxing especially the hot tub which my 15 year old loved as dis we. Beautiful Outlook onto the lake and lovely watching ducks and swans on the lake. Would highly recommend.

A wonderful lodge with magnificent views over the lake its in an idyllic spot and has fantastic facilities including some really lovely and much appreciated personal touches by the owner. The Hot Tub was a big hit with us all and its definitely on the mustcomebackto list! The food at the restaurant on site was excellent and at nearby Longlands only downside is excessive costs of using swimming pool so we didnt!. Brilliant base for a stunning part of the country.

Great property very comfortable had a very enjoyable weekend. Only feedback is checkout is very early. Could be 10 or 11.

Christine

Beautiful lodge in a perfect location overlooking the lake. Perfect for a relaxing break to unwind. When the electricity went off whilst cooking the call made to owner was answered immediately and issue resolved. Hot tub not overlooked. Only stayed for 2 nights but would definitely return though it is more than we normally would pay. The position on the lake and the position of the lodge on the park I do feel warrants the extra cost due to the quietness and privacy given, Only negative is the later checkin time of 4.00pm and earlier checkout time of 9.00am compared to other lodges we have stayed in. Dog friendly which was key for us with a basket of goodies our little dog enjoyed ! Everything you need is on hand, rooms of a high standard. Only a short drive from the motorway and also to Carnforth for provisions,

We booked this lodge specifically because it was advertised as a hot tub holiday. Sadly, the hot tub was unusable for the entire week, except for a token 20 minutes on the last day after multiple failed attempts, workmen visits, and repeated requests for me a disabled guest to just use the hoses to top it up in the hope it would work. This was completely unreasonable, and the workmen themselves admitted the tub was very old and not fit for purpose. The owner also acknowledged it was damaged before we even arrived but made no attempt to attend the property or offer a meaningful solution. What should have been a relaxing break turned into a constant source of disruption and disappointment. The owners lack of communication, failure to take responsibility, and dismissive handling of the issue were deeply unreasonable. Please also see other reviews mentioning the dirty exterior of the property and cobwebs everywhere, which only adds to the sense of neglect.

The lodge was all it said comfort , clean. , all home comforts everything you could wish for and the lake view spectacular. Added bonus hot tub especially in the evening when all the terrace is lit up. Susan

Beautiful lodge beautiful view.

Carole

WOW !!! What a beautiful lodge with total credit to the owner Tracey Stunning Extremely clean and tidy and the positioning on the Lake is 2nd to none with beautiful views Tracey is a wonderful owner who goes above and beyond Thank you for all your help and understanding before my arrival having been late due to unforeseen circumstances Tracey went to reception to collect my shopping and put it all away for me Thank you so much Tracey

Michelle

Lovely Lodge and lovely few days away. Second stay and was just as good as the first. One suggestion though would be for an umbrella for the decking area. We were there on one of the hottest days of the year so far and there was no shade ai we could couldnt sit out until later into the evening. Fabulous stay tho, thanks x

Stunning lodge in a gorgeous location. High spec decor with everything we needed. Lots of local places to visit. The view of the lake was fabulous. We really loved our time there.

This Lodge has the wow factor . We stayed over New Year , all the extras we where not expecting, christmas tree , decorations , wine , slippers. All the utensils you could possibly need plus more. Everything has been thought of to make it a very enjoyable stay. Very dog friendly, even have their own box of goodies and towel Lovely and warm inside, views unbelievable and hot tub was well used Weather not the best but honestly we where quite happy enjoying this beautiful Lodge and the weather made it even more cosy

Eleanor

Absolutely amazing lodge. Spotlessly clean and felt like luxury. Right on the edge of the lake too. Hottub was lovely and the Lodge itself had everything you could think of that you would need. Highly recommend.

Gerrida Lodge, is a first class Lodge in a lovely location adjacent to Pine Lake, where swans, ducks, cormorants and other wildlife make relaxing on the decking area all the more interesting. The Lodge consists of three bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom complete with walkin shower, a separate bathroom with an enormous bath. The kitchendining area is equipped with all the utensilsequipment needed for families to prepare and cook meals if required. There is also two large comfortable sofas adjacent to the dining area with a large television fixed to the wall, with log effect fire fixed below it. We enjoyed our stay there despite the weather not being too good and would certainly recommend and consider returning again.

Claire

In the listing it said it had a BBQ however we couldn't find one. There was nothing in the information book most of it was out dated during Covid times so could do with being updated. We couldn't get hold of the owner as they were not answering there phone. I also sent a message asking where it was but as of yet 3 days later still no reply. Could not get a disposable BBQ from anywhere. All the meat that I took with me for the BBQ had to be brought back home as a result. Very disappointing. Glad I didn't have any more serious issues that needed to be dealt with whilst we were there. Place was lovely though. And views was amazing. Just disappointing we could not make contact with the owners

Nicola

Everything was great, accommodation was clean and comfortable and the little extras was perfect. Wished we didn't live so far away as would definitely go back.

We had a marvellous week at Gerrida Lodge. The lodge is spacious, spotless and very comfortable. The view over the lake was amazing. We will definitely be going back for another stay.

Joanne

We absolutely loved our stay in this fantastically well equipped, super clean & comfortable lodge. It was pure luxury throughout. The owner is terrific, a lovely lady, happy to help & sort any issues, just a phone call away. The lodge & gorgeous hot tub are south facing, so benefit from sunshine for the entire day. It is set on a quiet avenue away from the main park, offering both privacy and seclusion. The lake view is simply breathtaking, dont be fooled by the map view of a little pond, it is huge & gorgeous, glittering in the sunshine, we could never tire of it. There are an abundance of birds and wildlife. We were blessed with visits from otters, ducks, geese, moorhens, cormorants, terns & a delightful resident swan family with 3 cygnets who adopted us with hourly visits during our stay. South Lakeland is an excellent location to explore Lancashire, Cumbria & the Lakes. You can be on Windermere in just 25 minutes. We genuinely had to tear ourselves away from this beautiful lodge, it is by far the best we have ever stayed in & cannot wait to return.

Adrian

Great cabin on the lake. Very clean with almost everything you need to make your stay comfortable.

When we initially arrived at the lodge it looked immaculate and had a lovely cosy atmosphere. However not long after we all noticed there were cobwebs and dust around the rooms and a lot of the dishes we had to rewash, this could be due to previous people staying not washing dishes properly. The atmosphere at the lodge is definitely nice and cosy but I think some things should be stated on the listing such as hot tub time limits, we were not aware that the hot tub could only be used between 10am and 10pm Ive stayed at many places and never had this time limit on a hot tub before and if I knew there was one I probably wouldnt have booked. We also noticed some nosey neighbours whilst being in the hot tub which was quite off putting. The view of the lake was really beautiful as well as some of the walks around the area. Over all it was a lovely lodge but due to some of the drawbacks I wont be booking here again.

Anneka

The lodge is beautiful and the view is great, the only negative we had was the road noise! Being so close to the M6 its not just a country lane youre right next to, its a major motorway. And it was a real shame as spoilt sitting outside a little, and it was loud at night trying to sleep. I think this should be noted on the booking. Facilities on site were lovely, we used the pool and the barrestaurant. Food was ok. Kids liked the little beach area. And beer garden over looking the lake was lovely. Overall, lodge spot on and facilities spot on, but the motorway noise really let it down for us.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Gerrida lodge. Would definitely recommend and look forward to staying there again. Its definitely a 1010!

Caroline

The lodge was very comfortable. There were a few areas of the lodge that had been missed during cleaning, a lot of cobwebs in some corners especially the main bathroom. Also it seemed that the hot tub wasn't maintained at all during our stay even though it said in the manual it would checked daily. We had to fill it ourselves. The lodge is in a beautiful location although it would help if in directions you directed people to walk by reception and leisure centre and go through that barrier next to the recycling area. The lodge itself was great, nice and comfy, although would be put off coming again due to the early check out time, it ate into our last day as we had to spend some time getting packed up.

Amanda

Beautiful place to stay, normally dont expect places to look like the pictures, got exactly what was advertised. Great area to visit all different places. Would highly recommend & will look to book again.

Michelle

Fantastic lodge with magnificent views over the lake lodge was super clean and luxurious and nothing had been missed in the amenities provided. Plenty to see and do nearby and the clubhouse was great.

Lovely lodge with views over the lake. We were a bit unlucky with the weather, very strong winds coming off the lake so we didnt use the deck much but would be beautiful to sit out on a good day watching the water activities. Lodge has tea, coffee, little biscuits all provided. There was fairy liquid, dishwasher tablets, kitchen foil, salt, pepper so no need to take these things with you. The WiFi was really good which pleased the kids. There are plenty of towels for the hot tub, would have been handy to have a dryer to dry them and swimming costumes off. Very dog friendly, with a towel, treats, bowls etc

The lodge was lovely and well equipped with everything you needed. The views were stunning from the decking. The sofas were slightly too small for 6 people to sit comfortably for an evening. The extra touches are very thoughtful with a nice bottle of wine there for you on arrival. Very dog friendly with toys, treats and blankets provided for them. The only downside was It would have been nice to have been advised there was no iron before we arrived so we could have brought our own with us. Overall an excellent lodge and definitely recommend to anyone wanting a holiday in the lakes.

Gillian

Gerrida lodge is absolutely stunning and in the perfect location. The photos do not do this lodge justice at all. The lodge is luxurious, immaculate and super comfortable. We stayed for 7 nights with the added bonus of some fantastic weather. The lake view is stunning, there's a hot tub to relax in also with a lake view, comfortable patio furniture so you can sit and watch the abundance of wildlife. There's otters about too if your up early enough! The lodge has everything you need for a perfect relaxing getaway or base for the Lake District and surrounding area. We can't wait to return. Thank you for an amazing and well needed holiday.

Jocelyn

What a beautiful place to spend with friends. Definitely had a great time. First class lodge. Will go back again. Straight forward from booking till the end, no hassles.

William

Gerrida Lodge is immaculate, idyllic, luxury, peaceful, stunning and absolutely perfect for a relaxing family holiday with your favourite people. I honestly couldnt recommend it enough. It is the perfect hub for an adventure around the Lake District and all of the other local delights. A magnificent stay, thank you, we look forward to our next visit very soon!

We stayed here for 5 days and was the best lodge we have ever stayed in. We walked in and it has the wow factor beautiful laid out and immaculate dog friendly lodge. Beds are so comfortable and makes a lot of difference having a nice proper duvet cover on instead of the normal basic one that don't fasten at the bottom. Bathroom was beautiful and relaxing with all the added touches and smelt lovely. The best part was the amazing view of Pine Lake and the outdoor furniture was so comfy. On arrival key was is key safe as detailed form Tracey in an email. Would highly recommend definitely five star service and accommodation. We will definitely be back. Thanks for making it a lovely holiday to remember. 5
