Eden House in Bardsea | Must-See Yorkshire Dales Hot Tub Cottage

About Eden House

Eden House is a massive country lodge in the Lake District near Ulverston. This 6-bedroom beauty sleeps up to 14 people and has its own private hot tub and wood-fired sauna. Perfect for big family get-togethers or that weekend away with mates where you need plenty of space.

The property sits in gorgeous landscaped grounds with access to woodland walks right from your doorstep. You'll spot peacocks wandering about - they're like the posh neighbourhood watch. Kids go wild for the farm animals on site, while grown-ups appreciate being less than a mile from the local pub. Who's walking home after a few pints? Not me!

Accommodation is spread across two floors with three ground floor bedrooms (including one super king) and three upstairs (including a family room with king and single bed plus en-suite). There's a first-floor kitchen with all mod cons including a 6-ring gas range cooker, plus a sitting room with gas fire for cosy nights in. The conservatory even has table tennis for competitive types.

Nearby attractions include South Lakes Safari Zoo (6 miles, 15 minutes), Conishead Priory (3 miles, 10 minutes), Laurel and Hardy Museum (1 mile, 5 minutes) and Grizedale Forest (12 miles, 30 minutes).

Eden House ticks all boxes for big groups wanting quality time together. After a day exploring, soak those muscles in the hot tub with a glass of prosecco fizzy. Just remember the 11pm curfew - nobody wants to see your pruney bits at midnight.

Eden House Reviews

ADENIKE

The house is beautiful and catered for all our needs. I certainly would recommend Eden house to friends and family! The only negative feedback is that we would have appreciated more toilet rolls being provided. Especially considering the fact that our group included 3 children.

Joanne

It was a fabulous place to stop. Everything you could possibly need. I would say we did need to go to Booths and purchase more logs for the sauna which delayed our enjoyment but that's a minor issue. There are parts that need attention, for eg cup marks on the dressers, scuff marks etc but nothing that reduced our enjoyment. Eden Lodge looks fab, we might save up for a return visit there.

14 of us girls stayed for a 60th birthday celebration, we all had a fantastic time, house is very well equipped with everything we needed, hot tub was so lovely even though it was freezing outside, just wish we had remembered to bring extra wood for the sauna. Loved all the animals in the grounds especially the peacocks, will definitely book again, highly recommended

Stephen

Seating in lounge needs upgrade More outside lighting especially car park Most ... Seating in lounge needs upgrade More outside lighting especially car park Most of beds need new comfy mattresses Dryer not working properly Hot tub and sauna very good although more wood required for sauna Kitchen excellent Bathrooms very good

We had no hot water on our first morning, I called the number supplied and they came to investigate very quickly. All bar the downstairs shower were OK after that and I let the gentleman know when we leaving. The kitchen was fantastic and had everything you needed for cooking etc. All the beds we used were very comfortable and the linens and towels supplied were spotless and of a high quality. We all enjoyed our stay. Just a few too many signs for us, charges would occur if property left in a mess and don't open doors as noise carrues etc. These issues were addressed on our booking and it did make us feel awkward.

Lovely property

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Eden House! Ive stayed here or at the Eden Lodge on the same property almost every summer for the past 10 years, and I always look forward to coming back. The rooms are comfortable and quiet there were 12 of us total this year. The dinein kitchen is huge with a beautiful setup dream kitchen for me and a nice gathering area. The ground level has a sitting room with several couches and chairs that leads into the sunroom with table tennis plus the hot tub and sauna are a nice bonus. Eden House has a lot of space for a large group of people. The grounds also have plenty of outdoor sitting areas, and in recent years, weve enjoyed the addition of the farm animals including sheep, pigs, chickens, goats and peacocks. Fabrizio, the caretaker, and Ernst, the owner, are also very responsive if any issues arise, though weve never had any major issues thanks so much to them for making Eden House available to us, year after year. Highly recommend Eden House and Eden Lodge!

Sophie

Amazing weekend, house was great! !

We celebrated my mums 85th birthday there was 14 of us Eden House was perfect for our weekend the hot tub snd sauna was a bonus. The house was well equipped with everything we needed.Eden farm was a favourite place with my 3 grandchildren they loved that walking through the grounds .

Lovely, well equipped house. good base for exploring the area. plenty of space for extended family of 10,and the kids enjoyed the games room and looking round the grounds at the animals.we also enjoyed the hot tub and sauna was lovely. it was not as secluded as expected from the pictures. there were 2 smaller properties close by which were accessed by walking through the bbq seating area at the back and the side of the saunahot tub.

Claire

Had a lovely time with family. The farm was a big hit with the kids. Lovely people who maintain the property. Great area for walks. The house has everything you could possibly need. Glad most of the little lodges around the house were empty cause it would have been too busy for me. I wanted a house in the middle of no where with no people

Sunilkumar

Really enjoyed . .!! very nice and comfortable place for holiday ..!!

Katrina

Lovely place to stay, would definitely recommend and stay there again. Thank you so much.

Alison

Great place for large families kitchen amazing good facilities games room a big hit although very cold in this room. Clean comfortable and caretaker available for problem hot tub and sauna amazing would recommend this place will be returning again with my large family

Alyson

Beautiful property. Well equipped throughout, the owners have provided everything you need. Hot tub was fantastic and the games room an added bonus. Would highly recommend!

Alison

Excellent holiday for a group of adults. Really enjoyed our stay helped by the fantastic weather. Sauna and hot tub both large enough for all to enjoy. Similarly with the barbecue area. Very well equipped kitchen. Well situated for walking and water sports around Coniston Water. Lovely coastal strolls too. Thank you

We have just celebrated my daughters 40th birthday here with all our family and wasn't dissapointed . Eden house is lovely plenty of room for the family the children loved looking at the animals each day . Hot tub was used every day . The kitchen was amazing we could all sit round the table for meals which we enjoyed spending time with everyone I would recommend this property to anyone wishing to spend time with there family and the lake district .

Caroline

Despite contacting the maintenance man who checked everything we had no hot water for about 3 days, which was not acceptable considering there was 13 of us who needed to shower regularly especially after being in hot tub. Showering 6 children in cold to luke warm water is not good. Lovely house but water issue definitely spoilt it for us

Alexandra

Great place to stay, a little tricky to find but thats because we followed the postcode and not the instructions

Loved Eden house and the surroundings. Spent a week with family and friends. Lots of space for everyone. Loved the kitchen, it had everything you needed. Massive fridgefreezer. The kitchen was on the upper floor but it worked. Hot tub was great, the wood fired sauna was a win with lots of us. They provided a starter pack, you do need to bring more, which we did BBQ area is great too. Loved all the animals in the grounds too! Bardsea is a lovely place. We would definitely go back.

We had a great stay, only negative is lack of lawn. The farm was a huge benefit we had 4 young children. As a criticism, lack of bin bags was a problem, and living room carpet curling up at edge

Excellent facilities. Booked this house to celebrate my husband's 70th Birthday. Everything we could possibly want was provided. Brilliant time had by all, thank youn

Joanna

We had a brilliant week away, 10 adults and 3 babies. The house had plenty of space and the kitchen was well stocked. Good bathroom access for all. The site was great hot tub and sauna easy to use and lots of fun! Mini farm was fantastic too for the kids and adults!. Also loved the location, a short walk to the beautiful Bardsea beach. Highly recommend.

Robert

Very comfortable house, spacious and warm. Ideal for a family. The kitchen was well equipped. The hot tub and sauna had plenty of use . We all loved the grounds with animals wandering around. The area had plenty to keep us all occupied.

Olivia

We had a great stay at Eden Lodge, brilliant property, rural and quiet, great facilities and everyone loved it. The best parts were of course the sauna, hot tub and ping pong table which we made great use of. It would be good if there was an option to buy more firewood for the sauna, as trying to find some turned into a big part of one of our days. The kitchen and all the rooms were great sizes, plenty of bathrooms showers to go around and no one was on top of eachother, there was always space when you wanted it. 1010 stay, would recommend. Thank you

Lesley

Amazing! We found everything to be top of the range. Hot tub and sauna and games room were great.

Angela

On arrival on the doorstep was a wet towel and can of cola. So first impressions on cleanliness not good. The property itself had good facilities, hot water and beds fab. But the cleanliness of the place was not up to a good standard. The lounge floor had peanuts and bits from last booking. Lots of dust etc under beds. Ornaments and lamps needed a good clean. Mould in the ensuite ceiling. Mould in that bedroom above the single bed too. Overall great find just a shame about attention to detail for cleaning.

Fantastic stay with friends. Children loved helping to feed animals with Caroline who was so lovely with them. Kitchen was well equipped, however more tumblers and kids cupsplates would be a great edition if possible. Beds were comfortable, and the house was very clean tidy and warm. Hot tub and sauna were great asset. 1010 well be back next year for sure.

Caroline

A great stay! Really impressed with how big the hot tub was. The sauna was a worry as we had to light it up ourselves, but actually it was easy and heated up well. The house was very clean and spacious. Our group all want to stay again! Great kitchen, had everything ! Fab fridgefreezer with ice dispenser. Only downside to the house was the kitchen being on the first floor and living area on the ground floor. But thats to personal choice and we did get used to it.

Cathie

One issue was the temperature of the bedrooms, the upstairs was extremely hot whereas downstairs was very cold. Room 2 and 4 had a mouldy strange smell. Also the main oven didnt work, we did mention it to one of the men we saw in the garden but we managed with the other oven and hob. However this wouldnt stop us staying again and the downstairs ladies would bring warmer pjs. Overall we had a fantastic time and would definitely come back again

WOW what a hidden gem Eden House is! ! Booked as a surprise girls weekend away for my wifes big birthday, everything was perfect from start to finish the house is lovely the decor is perfect the facilities are great they provide everything you need! All of our friends agreed when you go up the driveway you could be anywhere in the world we are fairly local but felt like we were miles away! the animals are brilliant wondering around. The staff we came across over the weekend were friendly. Would highly recommend and already in talks about when we will return!

Michelle

Had a lovely holiday here with friends. Few little problems but these where sorted by lovely staff on site. Took a few days to get used to doors banging,they had soft close on them but still shut with a thud. Also could do with more than 1 TV, in saying that we all had a fab time. Farm was lovely and meeting the baby piglets was a real treat. I would definitely go back and would recommend this property.

Philip

The property felt hemmed in on all sides by other properties. There is little that can be done about this other than to realise that you will be nagged to keep quiet even if those other properties make noise. We felt that we should have been told that the internet was not working rather than spend a lot of time thinking that we were doing something wrong.

Eileen

Weve just returned from a fantastic stay at Eden House, late Julyearly August, eight adults, two teens, four little ones aged eight to three. The house was absolutely perfect for all the family, the hot tub, sauna and the barbecue grill gave us all a lot of opportunities for outdoor leisure time, sitting in the hot tub watching the little farm animals grazing yards away, whats not to enjoy! The lounge sofas are lovely and squishy, one in the games room too, its totally different and a much more pleasing layout than the photos show. Others have commented on the kitchen facilities, it really is simply brilliant, from layout to utensils, theres everything two tips, the right hand side of the oven gave us more flexibility for cooking and theres a top pull out drawer for cutlery in the dishwasher. The washer and dryer are in the downstairs bathroom in the white cupboards, we found it best to use them separately rather than both at once. The owner Ernst and his maintenance man were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble. It was a perfect holiday home for all of us, we left it as we found it, hopefully minimal cleaning was required, easily ready for others to enjoy much as we did. Thank you Eden House x

Michelle

Lovely house and grounds, the little farm was very sweet and staff friendly and helpful. The additional cabins in the grounds are very close to the house, wasn't an issue but we weren't sure who's area was whose and we couldn't 'book' the pizza oven so missed out which was a shame.

The outside pictures are out of date and it is far more overgrown than shown, so there are no views and no pleasant outside seating areas. There was quite a lot of dust under the beds including an empty fruit shoot drinks bottle under one of the double beds. Mentioned to owner said they would have a word with the cleaners. We had to seek assistance as the upstairs shower overflowed and poured through the ceiling in downstairs bathroom. I was told that they have quite a lot of young ladies with long hair! They appear not to check them regularly. The toilet in the blue shower room leaked on the floor every time it was flushed. Despite the owner putting Mr Muscle in both upstairs showers the shower in the blue room leaked through the ceiling the following morning no idea where from. There were no instructions in the welcome pack as to where the washing machine and tumble dryer were, nor were there any instructions for the sauna. The WiFi is virtually non existent and as a result we called the caretaker he advised we log in to Eden House and he sent the password this was not much better only able to be online for a few minutes at a time. I asked him where the washing machine and tumble dryer were located. He advised us to use the machines at Eden Lodge. On the day before we left we discovered what looks like two doors in the downstairs bathroom and there was the washing machine and tumble dryer! There are no cleaning products to encourage guests to clean. So overall we were disappointed.

Wood flooring very dirty , had to wash it over throught the whole house !

Philip

Just spent 7 days at this lovely property. Our stay, outstanding, animals a great treat, owners made us feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. After a full day out we all enjoyed the hot tub and the fantastic sauna. Everything you need for a perfect holiday. Definitely book again. Area outstanding with plenty to do
