Limefitt Lodge Reviews

Darryll
Like home from home . We loved everything .location was perfect as easy access to a few good walks and a five minute drive to windermere and Ambleside .Having the hot tub was great and the kids loved going in once we returned from our adventures .Everything was perfect . The only thing I can say is we didnt have any thing to clean the floors with Eg a pan and brush or hoover but this was rectified when we had a brush dropped of by the reception on site .but that just me being a bit OCD when wanting to leave the lodge clean and tidy as we found it. I would highly recommend the site and lodge and we would happily return We had the best time and loved every minute .
Catherine
We stayed as a family of 5. The lodge was lovely with gorgeous decor and excellent facilities. The beds were extremely comfortable. The kids loved the reclining settees and the hot tub. We went to the pub on site had a lovely breakfast and evening meal. We are hoping to return later in the year.
Gaynor
Really beautiful lodge the owners have gone the extra mile! Every little detail appears to have been thought of and the cleanliness was top notch. Weve stayed in dozens of lodges over the years but this one really stands out ! Would thoroughly recommend
Claire
The lodge was absolutely beautiful with everything we could need for our family Christmas holiday. The beds were really comfortable and the whole place was spotless. Gorgeous furniture and decor making it a very relaxing break which is just what we needed. The hot tub was amazing and very private. Just a short walk up the hill to a lovely pub with an open fire where they served delicious food and drinks. We had been left a bottle of champagne and a massive tower of treats by the owners which was such a lovely and generous gesture. Will definitely be back and will recommend to our friends and family.
We had an amazing stay at Limefitt Lodge. The owners have decorated and maintained this property to the highest standard. On arrival the gift of a bottle of bubbly was a nice touch. The hot tub was the best we have ever had in a lodge! The reclining sofas were perfect after a day out walking. We would like to thank you for allowing us to stay and would definitely recommend this Lodge.
Cheryl
Lovely Lodge, everything you need for your stay, clean and comfortable, lovely bottle of fizz and fudge on arrival, well positioned the park itself was quite and nestled in the hills, little dog walking field and walks that start and end in the park. Would recommend and would stay again.

Superb lodge, clean & well maintained. The lodge is spacious and situated in a quiet location, perfect for relaxing get aways. Enclosed decking, which was perfect for our dog. Cannot fault the property.

Shelbie
Lovely lodge, as described. Really spacious and everything you needed was in the lodge endless utensils, cutlery and tableware which was great and meant you could use the built in dishwasher often. It had outdoor seating and games inside the lodge which came in handy! The hot tub was also great. The beds were really comfortable, the only bad points would be that the shower in the main bedroom en suite seemed to stay cold and not get warm, there was also a smell of gas within the living area but other than these minor points everything was great! It was situated in a perfect spot within distance to all tourist attractions, the site had a small shop which was useful and ideal when you had forgotten something. The dog field was great you can take your dog and let them off the lead comfortably. There is also a lovely little park on the site and a field where you can go and let your children play with football goals. There is also a laundrette on site where you can wash and dry your clothing. The haybarn inn pub is situated on site also which has a Poole table, dartboard and other facilities inside however the only issue with this is that it closes a few days a week so plan when you want to go. I would definitely recommend
Angela
Absolutely lovely property. Could not find any faults at all. So clean. Everything you need in the property. Decorated to highest standard. Beds so comfortable and loved the sofas and carpet. Hot tub was so relaxing. Beautiful view. Actually the only fault I could find was the shower in the en suite did not get very hot but nothing major. Had a lovely stay with my husband and family for our daughter's 21st. Would definitely return. Thank you so much.
Thank you for a wonderful stay at your stunning lodge
I messaged you on my return . And had no reply from you. The lodge was great. Problem with window not closing, which was not a problem. Lack of hot water situation was a problem. Bath and shower water only Luke warm. This was reported numerous time. And you promised to send someone out. Which I understand was done after we left.
Family had a great time, hot tub great, just bit of light maintenance on the outdoor furniture which was looking tired. Overall brilliant. Thank You.
Fabulous & memorable family weekend away in beautiful Limefitt Lodge to celebrate my husbands special birthday. The lodge was absolutely perfect and we were all so impressed at how clean, comfortable and well equipped it was. We will never forget sitting in the hot tub with thick snow surrounding us. Magical. I would also like to thank the owners for contacting us & being so supportive & accommodating regarding all the travel difficulties due to the snow. Thank you.
Christopher
Beautiful lodge very clean and cozy. We will definitely return. The lodge had everything you needed and the hot tub was amazing thankyou.
Jacqueline
Excellent, everyone loved your lodge especially the hot tub ,didnt want for anything , would definitely book again. Thank you.
Victoria
This lodge has everything you could ask for and more! From the moment we walked in we knew this was the perfect place to unwind and relax and we certainly did that. The lodge felt very spacious, loved the open plan living space, the kitchen were modern and had everything we needed, especially loved the nespresso machine which added that extra special touch. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and the beds are super comfy which was great as my husband has arthritis. There was only 3 of us staying but should have been 5 but it felt like there would have still been plenty of space not to feel on top of each other. It was nice to have the option of an ensuite for the master bedroom and the shower was super powerful which was a real treat. Outside on the decking was lovely with flowers in pots, giving it a homely feel. We only used the hot tub twice as the weather was torrential one day, but it was amazing and so relaxing. Our two dogs were so well catered for, the facilities on site were perfect, the dog field was great to let them off the lead and we enjoyed taking them with us for a meal in the local pub. The dogs loved the box in the lodge with the tennis balls in. We will definitely be boking again but next time for 7 nights as 4 wasn't long enough!
Great lodge only 1. 30pm wednesday electric went off till 2.30 am 13 hours one broken torch one torch not charged ,might want to think about this .Other than that couldn't fault lodge or site had a great time thank you
Robert
We have just returned from what can only be described as the great outdoors holiday. Limefitt Park is situated in a place where views are incredible. The lodge had everything even more kitted out than my house. If you like walks then this place is for you as there is a walk directly out the back of the site pub to troutbeck Tongue. Overall this was a 5 star stay for us & we would most definitely return.
Danielle

Lovely lodge enjoyed our week here went with my husband and two kids and parents and two dogs there was plenty of room for us all Lodge is clean beds are comfortable Thank you to the owner for the little extras like coffee pods and fudges kids loved them
Our 5th time to Limefitt park but 1st to Limefitt lodge. A fabulous lodge with great facilities, very well presented and clean Even thought of what the dogs may need on their holidays.. Dog bowls for inside and out.. Our 13 year spaniel now has an outdoor bowl at home because he loved the one at the lodge. Hope to be a return visitor
Thank you for a very enjoyable stay, the lodge was homely and comfortable and we had a good nights sleep in the beds. I found the lodge to be clean and well equipped with added extras we havent had on previous breaks away. The lodge setting is beautiful, a great park for exploring and spending time outside and is the location is good as the few places we visited we all within a 1020 minute drive. The pub serves nice food and is reasonably price plus has nice outside areas to dine outside and enjoy the views.

Rhianne
We LOVE this lodge. We have been 3 times now and love it as much as the first time we ever came. The lodge is spacious, very clean and in a great location!
Lesley-ann
The property is absolutely stunning, nicest lodge we've ever stayed in and we've stayed in alot! really well equipped and comfortable, the WiFi and Netflix were such an added and very appreciated bonus so thank you. We will definitely book again!
Lovely lodge comfortable, well equipped and in a lovely setting with lovely walks.
Ashley
The lodge was absolutely fantastic, in all honesty the photos dont do it justice. It was so much bigger and more spacious then we expected. The decking being fully gated made a world of difference to us having the dog. The hot tub was divine. Everything was beautiful and so clean! We would stay again in a heartbeat
We had a fabulous stay apart from the weather! at Limefitt Lodge. Lovely, quiet location on the site as well as a great base for exploring South Lakes. Lodge was as described with everything provided that would be needed for our stay. Hot tub was a great addition. Would highly recommend.
Rebecca
We had a great stay in July 2022. With 5 adults and 1 dog, there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The hot tub was an added bonus. Nice quiet lodge and handy for the onsite pub.
A fantastic lodge that is very well equipped, there wasn't anything that we found wanting for. Very quite park in a great location for walking.. The hot tub is a wonderful addition, especially after going in the River Pool!
Brilliant stay again at Limefitt park, this lodge in particular was our favourite one so far! Very clean and modern. Hope to be returning in the future.
Lovely accommodation, and facilities within the lodge. Fabulous hot tub. Amazing scenic walks right near the Lodge. Highly recommend Queens Head pub nearby.
Leanne
A lovely, cosy lodge in a beautiful setting with fantastic walks straight from the front door. The lodge exceeded our expectations, we had a wonderful time and look forward to staying again in the near future.
We had a lovely stay in this stunning lodge. It was in a beautiful spot only 10 minutes drive to either windermere or Ambleside. It was spotlessly clean with every utensil needed. The beds were very comfortable as we're the sofas. Even though there were 6 of us as well as our little dog it never seamed overcrowded, & the hot tub was the icing on tht cake. We'll definitely recomend it to anyone and everyone !
