We had a great holiday at the lake's. The lodge was lovely, but somethings could be better, the freezer compartment was tiny, and iced over, so the door sometimes wouldn’t close properly, The beds were so comfy, hot tub was lush. We visited coniston lake for the first time, it was the hottest day, my daughter would have loved to have gone in the lake, but we never took costumes or towels, so they went on the self drive boats instead. We had 2 very rainy days, can’t book the weather, so had to put the heating on just to help dry the clothes, lodge heated up very quickly, and turned it back off, as it was too hot, but most days both doors were open as 5 day s of lovely weather, meant it was warm in the lodge, without any heating on. Even though the lodges are quite close to each other, our hot tub was positioned out of view, and quite private. The only thing I missed was no barbecue on the decking, as we would love to have had one. But I did like the fact you could lock the gate, so it was very secure for dogs. Park Dean resort is actually right on Lake Windermere, so you can access a section of the lake, for paddle boarding, canoeing etc. great holiday

Perfect
Fantastic location and beautiful views. The lodge was lovely and everything works as it should.
Only thing I would mention which isn’t a massive problem. The hot tub and table is located under a tree which was constantly dropping cotton like fibres into the hot tub and onto the table full of drinks.
