High Longlands Reviews

Louise & family couldnt have made our stay more memorable. The pod, facilities and general atmosphere was fantastic. This will be our special place for time to come, and we will make it our regular staycation! Thanks Louise!

Stephen

Wonderful peaceful week in an adylic setting with all the amenities you need. If you want to sit and watch the sun come up from the decking or watching the stars from the hot tub it was perfect. Very relaxing week we would like to thank our hosts for sharing their home.

We stayed here for a week. What can I say the views are amazing, everything was provided for what you would need for a comfortable stay weather your in or out each day, the hottub was a bonus to chill in after a long day out. As for the host she was amazing extremely friendly and approachable nothing was too much for her I would recommend these pods what an amazing week we had we will definitely be booking another getaway

Staying here was a dream! The view, the peacefulness and the tranquility! Absolutely magical on our honeymoon. The host was lovely and came to introduce herself with her lovely dog. No faults whatsoever, I would only ask the host to add some more hooks, clothes rail and full size mirror.

Superb property with stunning views, and great facilities. Really spacious, very comfortable, and the view whilst in the hot tub was glorious.

The lodge was fantastic. We loved where it was, the amenities & the hot tub. Everything was just as we would have hoped & we had a fab weekend.

Laurie

Beautiful property and lots of lovely touches luxury products, drinks in fridge, teacoffee. Wonderful place to stay!

Beautiful lodge with all essential amenities. Brilliant views, just a shame we had some rainy days. Close enough to walk into Cartmel although the roads are narrow and winding so you need to be mindful of traffic.

Where to start , the Lodge, was 10 out of 10. Beautifully kept well maintained and clean. The owner was so helpful and lovely went out her way to answer questions. Beautiful seanory, differently coming back. Would give them 5 stars.

What a beautiful place Very clean well kept lodge the owner has thought of everything from your welcome drink to the very moorish cartmel sticky toffee pudding the facilities provided second to none. Louise thank you

I had a wonderful short break in High Longlands. The property was wonderful, it exceeded my expectations. Lovely touches that made my break feel special. Hot tub is great. Property and grounds are very well maintained. The setting and views are exceptional. As a solo traveller I felt safe and relaxed.

We recently had the pleasure of spending a peaceful weekend away in a cosy pod at the Longland Farm retreats and it was truly an amazing experience. The amenities provided were fantastic. The pod itself was wellequipped, making it feel like a home away from home. One of the highlights was the spacious hot tub, which offered a perfect way to relax after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. It was so nice to be surrounded by nature. Overall, this weekend getaway was exactly what we needed. With lovely walks nearby, a peaceful environment, and comfortable quaint pubs to pop into for a refreshing drink. We left feeling rejuvenated and grateful for the experience. The host was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that all our needs were met while still allowing us plenty of privacy. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Decided to go here for a little weekend away with my boyfriend. It was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The outdoor hot tub was amazing. The location was peaceful and perfect for exploring the Lake District.

Melissa

What a lovely few nights we had here! The cabin was clean and warm. The hot tub was clean and this was checked on a daily basis. The fire was a lovey touch which we enjoyed putting on every night, especially when the snow was coming!

Andrea

We have just returned home after spending 3 nights in high longlands. Everything about it was perfect, such a lovely little escape to relax. The pod was immaculate and the nicest we have stayed in up to now. It has high quality features, a super comfy bed, lovely shower, log burner and hot tub. The kitchen was just enough so you could make all your meals no problem. We loved our time there so much we were sad to leave and will definitely be booking to go back next year.

Oliver

The holiday was well need and very welcoming. the site is easy to get to, and is a very warm and welcoming place. It was lovely and quite, and the hot tub was very relaxing when you could spend the evening star gazing. would more than happily go back

Hannah

We absolutely loved our weekend at High Longlands. We could completely relax and had a great time just chilling with a fire and lovely food. Cartmel nearby is a beautiful village and we did some a lovely hike up the hill behind the pods too.

Tracey

We have stayed at High Longlands several times and it never disappoints. The views from the pod are beautiful and the whole atmosphere is so calm. Absolutely love it here. Louise as always was helpful and friendly. Already looking forward to our next stay. Tracey & Martin

Bradie

Beautiful lodge , over looking beautiful scenery. In very close proximity to the village centre and lots of things to do nearby ! Would highly recommend x

Samantha

The place was amazing, there was just a few tweaks that were missing. No where to hand a few clothes, maybe instead of the heart decoration a couple of clothes pegs would have been helpful. No long mirror, with such nice restaurants it would be nice to see what you look like before you go, maybe one on the front of the bathroom door? The only other thing was a bit of mould in the shower needs scrubbing and treating. Otherwise an amazing place to stay and highly recommend the accommodation to anyone!

Absolutely gorgeous lodge, lovely location, so peaceful, especially the view while sat relaxing in the hot tub. We could've quite easily spent all week in there but there is plenty to do a short drive away. The lodge is well furnished including the kitchenette meaning we could cook meals a few nights rather than having to eat out every night. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be returning. The only thing I would change is possibly some thicker blindscurtains as with the lodge being southfacing, from 4am the sun makes it quite bright in there.

We very much enjoyed our stay at High Longlands. A lovely location, very peaceful and with great views and perfect for relaxing in the hot tub. There was everything we needed for our stay and we would recommend this accommodation. Cartmel is close by with some great places to eat and there is plenty to do in the surrounding area.

Kimberley

What an amazing little find! We couldn't have asked for more, from the stunning views and surroundings, cute and cosy property, fab location, and all round great place to stay. The property had everything we needed. We were caught out on one day by bad weather and enjoyed a full day relaxing in High Longlands. I wish it had been a bit colder so we could have made use of the fire. Everything within the property is well taken care of and maintained and shows from when you arrive and throughout the stay. Our hosts were very welcoming and easy to reach if we needed anything. I couldn't recommend enough. We didn't want to leave and most certainly will be back. We hope to make this our regular stay when we can get back to the Lakes. Thank You for making our first holiday away together the best it could have been.

Andrew

The luxury retreat was certainly that and in such a beautiful location

We had a lovely weekend stay, great hosts and a lovely place to stay. Nice and quiet with a great view.

Natalie

Absolutely fantastic accommodation in the heart of the Lake District, in a quaint little village only approximately a 2025 minute drive from Lake Windermere. Waking up to the most beautiful view on a morning and even having that same beautiful view whilst relaxing in the hot tub was utter bliss, and so peaceful and quiet too. Louise and her gorgeous Labrador Roxy was so welcoming when we arrived and always on hand if needed. Louise also gave us some of her personal favourite recommendations for eateries within the village and local area, but there were also facilities within the lodge for if we wanted to cook for ourselves. We will definitely return! Thank you once again.

We had an amazing stay the pod was very clean and equipped with everything we needed. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful we will be definitely going back.

Joanne

We loved the lodge! Perfect break to relax. Louise was lovely & very welcoming. Thank you very much!

Perfect for a quiet break peaceful location with really lovely towns and facilities within short distance. Pod was finished to a high standard, clean and had everything we needed. Hosts were the perfect approach as we knew they were there if we needed them, but not a constant presence. Would recommend to my friends and family and if in the area again would not hesitate to rebook.

This was my second visit and hopefully not my last. If anything it was better than the first.Perfect accommodation and a beautiful location and ideal way to spend a weekend.Hot tub was a perfect way to relax and watch the world go by and observe the sky and stars, totally relaxing.The pod provided everything necessary,the bed was excellent and everything was as described.A superb weekend!

The lodges are superb. Very clean, very cosy, and extremely well equipped, with high end appliances and fittings. Louise is lovely and very helpful. Theres nothing that Id change. Thanks so much

We had a lovely relaxing stay in High Longlands, the hot tub was preheated on arrival and there was lots of little treats, milk in the fridge, a pudding and tea and coffee supplies little bottle of bubbly which are nice touches and the cabin really had everything you need for your stay. Spotlessly clean and Lucie was really helpful in sorting us out for charging our electric car which was an added bonus to have on sight. We will definitely be recommending to friends and look forward to coming back in the future.

We have just had a fantastic stay in high longlands. The views from the pod are amazing and it has to be one of the best we've stayed in. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing break away.

An Amazing stay. What a wonderful time spent at High Longlands.There was everything we needed and more. Property was exceptionally clean and spacious. Louise was on hand if we needed anything.. The Views from the Hot Tub were beautiful. Loads to see and do nearby. Cartmel has some lovely pubs and restaurants. We will definitely be back. Thank you. Xx

A real home from home. Very well furnished and very high quality. Idyllic location and away from all the day to day hustle and bustle. Louise was extremely helpful and had great local knowledge so was a useful resource for planning trips out. Made us feel very welcome to the point we were quite sad to have to leave. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away for a few days and relax in the peace and quiet.

An amazing property quiet tucked away and secluded, the staff were friendly and offered advice on the local area. We were left alone to enjoy the cabin but were still aware help and advice were nearby if needed. All in all a great break exactly what we wanted.

Sharon

Excellent location, owners are really helpful and friendly. Amazing uninterrupted views making it an ideal place to relax. Definitely going to return.

Andrew

Absolutely gorgeous location, stunning views of the fields and hills, a clean comfortable pod with great amenities and a hot tub. We loved it! Louise was great too and when we needed anything firewood she replied very quickly. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Stayed at High Longlands for a long weekend with my partner in June 2023. Absolutely amazing weekend that couldnt be faulted. Arrived an hour earlier than our check in time which wasnt an issue, just had to wait 10 minutes until the pod was ready. High Longlands was really clean with fresh towels, bedding and robes waiting for us. The kitchen was well equipped and had tea, coffee and sugar, alongside biscuits and sticky toffee pudding which by the way was to die for!. The fridge was also stocked up with milk, a beer and a mini Prosecco lovely welcoming touches. We were also given wood for the log burner, which we unfortunately didnt use as it was too hot but would be super cosy in the winter. The hot tub was such a treat for us we went in almost every night! and made use of the bbq. The view from the decking was gorgeous, with sheep bleating away in the field next to us. Louise made us both feel welcome and was always willing to help or answer queries when she could. She even went the extra mile when I left my jackets behind, only realising when I got home. She found them and posted them back to us straight away. Would highly recommend High Longlands for a romantic and cosy getaway to the lakes.

What an incredible find, felt very private, only four cabins on the site, the cabin itself was very beautifully decorated, extremely clean, everything you need being away from home. The cabin felt luxurious and tasteful, the bed was extremely comfortable. Even though it was small in size it still felt spacious in the layout. Although we went in June whilst the weather was glorious it would also be perfect in winter as there was a log burning stove too. I was looking for a quiet secluded romantic weekend away and this hit the mark completely. The hot tub was lovely and private too and was such an amazing idea to have it sunk into the decking of the cabin so you had complete privacy without having to walk too and from a hot tub in towels. The views were incredible! The location was breathtaking. The local village was a short walk away and very welcoming with the most amazing food. Perfect peaceful getaway to rest and recharge. The owners of the properly were so friendly and accommodating. They should be incredibly proud of what they have achieved in this little piece of heaven, we will definitely be returning.
