The Lodge

 
Visit Britain 4 Star Gold   |   Sleeps 10   |   5 Bedrooms   |   Hot Tub
Pet Friendly | 

​Situated close to the Lake District National Park, Bank End Lodge is a super base for exploring the South and West Lakes areas, being away from the hustle and bustle of the central Lakes but easily accessible, Lake Winderemere being a 30 minute drive away.

The Lodge is perfect for large families and groups and is a great place to meet up for celebrations as well as holidays. The communal areas of the lounge and dining area seat 10, both areas enjoying views across the fields and pond to the Kirkby fells beyond.

​Stair gates, highchairs and travel cots are available on request for younger guests and beyond the enclosed garden of The Lodge there is an extra fenced area containing a couple of goalposts perfect for children (this is shared with neighbouring Bank End Barn)

There is also a further area beyond the games area where there is a natural pond and seating. In Spring 2018 we added a Summer House to the shared pond area which has bench seating inside, giving extra options for guests to enjoy the area. 
It is a nice place to relax and enjoy the wildlife down by the pond, we regularly see Moorhens and Ducks along with Herons and we have occasional visits from White Egrets, Cormorants and Kingfishers.

The covered hot tub is accessed from the enclosed garden, seating 6 it is perfect to relax and enjoy the views after a busy day.
