Superb location. Great base for exploring the Lake District. The most relaxing holiday I have ever had in the UK.
|
|
The scenery is breathtaking and the accommodation was excellent, it had everything you would need and was very comfortable.
|
|
Beautiful and peaceful location, lodges are clean, very high quality, also had everything you would need for your stay.
|
|
A fantastic lodge in a fabulous location.
|
|
The site is situated right on the edge of the lake which is stunning. The scenery is lovely and the children enjoyed throwing stones into the lake of an evening. The park is very quiet and is ideal for a relaxing holiday and one where you want to go on walks looking at the landscape. The site is ideally positioned for exploring the other lakes of the district (45 mins drive to Windermere) and other small towns (Carlisle approx 40 mins) A very enjoyable holiday.

|
The whole experience was fantastic, set in a stunning location with first class accommodation. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful - everything that is necessary for a brilliant holiday!
|
|
A great place to get away to - beautiful!
|
|
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges, the location was excellent, the accommodation very smart and the weather was fantastic!
|
|
If you want a holiday to get away from it all then this is it. The park is set in the most glorious surroundings with fantastic views and no need to leave the park. I have already recommended it to several friends!
|
|
Peaceful, scenic, relaxing, comfortable, and a good base to explore the Lakes and the surrounding areas.
|
|
We would definitely recommend this holiday at Bassenthwaite. Our accommodation was excellent, based in beautiful surroundings and luckily for us, great weather. Fantastic.
|
|
The view was surperb and the location was easy and quiet.
|
|
Beautiful with breathtaking scenery! If it is peace and quite you're after then this is the perfect place - peace, perfect peace!
|
|
You would have to go a long way to find a more spectacular setting in which to base yourself. Our kids had a great time sailing their boats, swimming and fishing in the lake and generally being free range. The location is ideally placed for walking or sight-seeing around the lakes. The park never felt crowded and the accommodation is to a good standard, it even had its own coat/boot room. This was one holiday we didn't want to end, but sadly it did so we are booking again for next year!
|
|
The accommodation was excellent!
|
|
My daughter and I found it to be a quiet location, ideal for someone wanting a real rest.
|
|
|
|
This is the best location we have been to - just yards from the lake and everything even better than it appears in the brochure. Thank you for a warm welcome and for the care and consideration shown to us!
|
|
A beautiiful park, a very peaceful and soothing place to be and very good quality accommodation. Close to Keswick and a good touring centre.
|
|
Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges is in a beautiful setting, with nice walks around and very quiet. The park owners were very friendly and helpful - we had a great week!
|
|
A beautiful, quiet lakeside situation, perfect for relaxing and visiting the North Lakes.
|
|
A beautiful location, scenery to die for, and it was great for children. All was excellent and classy - thank you!

Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges was our first Christmas away from home. I was a little worried as I had always wanted to holiday over the Christmas period, but wanting and having are two different things. I am delighted to say that myself, my Partner and our Children (7 of us in all) had a terrific time and no regrets. The Lodge dinner table was set for Christmas dinner and there was a Christmas tree and some Christmas ornaments to greet us. This setted off our festive holiday very well. The Fells were lovely to look at from our Lodge and also to explore - though please do take a map! It was good to be able to do some sight seeing on Christmas day. We visited Aira Force and Castlerigg Stone Circle which are not a far drive away from the lodge. We stayed in a Woodland Lodge that had lovely views of the lake. Where we stayed was quiet and peaceful.

|
A very quiet and relaxing place to stay with beauiful scenery, and only a short drive away from Keswick centre, so a great location.
|
|
Absolutely idyllic. This is the second year we have been and 2 days after arriving home have booking again for next year. SUch a beautiful spot and the accommodation was outstanding. Perfect in every aspect.
|
|
Wonderful location right by the water's edge..... a magical experience!!!!!!
|
|
I was very impressed with the standard of the accommodation and the facilities - I would certainly recommend it!
|
|
Bassenthwaite is a beautiful place for a relaxing "away from it all" break.
|
|
The perfect location in high quality accommodation - I would highly recommend!
|
|
I had a fabulous relaxing time, the park had everything as advertised in the brochure. We have already booked another stay!
|
|
A top place, a brilliant setting and fantastic views - what more could you want, 5 stars!
|
|
The lodge and park provided us with the most beautiful and tranquil setting that we have ever been, I was so overwhelmed when I walked into our amazing Lakeside lodge I was moved to tears! A must for those wishing to get away from it all - stunning views, an excellent location and fantastic staff. I wish I didn't have to come home and certainly hope to go again!
|
|
We all thoroughly enjoyed it and the kids loved the lake and swimming everyday - there is so much to do in and around the Lakes!
|
|
Fantastic location with views over Lake Bassenthwaite. Peaceful location but plenty to do in the area for adults and children.
|
|
The location of the lodges are fantastic for a peaceful getaway. Keswick is not far away, where you can enjoy a variety of restaurants to eat in. The views of the lake are amazing and the surrounding scenery is stunning. The lodges are clean and very attractive inside and out. You will not be disappointed.
|
|
It was a fantastic holiday, very relaxing! A lodge by the lake was brilliant and the kids loved going in their dinghy, fishing and swimming plus all the adventures available in the local area.
|
|
The location of the park was outstanding and it was so peaceful. A wonderful weekend away for my partners 50th birthday!!
|
|
This Hoseasons site is first class. We were looking for a peaceful holiday so that we could relax and enjoy the environment and this place ticked all the boxes without a doubt. I don't expect anything less from Hoseasons, we have always been overjoyed with all our holidays booked through them
|
|
I would recommend this holiday if you want peace, and local wildlife.
|
|
An excellent park, perfect for relaxing on the beautiful lake.
|
|
Our best UK holiday in years! We will be back next year - the dog loved it as well!
|
|
The location and views are excellent and the park is very relaxing. Keswick and other places of interest such as Grassmere and Ambleside are only a short distance away. There are plenty of friendly hostilries to dine out and many are pet friendly.
|
|
This is ideal for peace and quiet, it is well off the beaten track so stock up with provisions before you get there.
|
|
If you want a nice romantic break away from the rest of the world then Basingthwaite Lakes is the place to go. Fantastic break
|
|
If one is looking for peaceful and relaxing holiday with stunning views, then Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges is where you should head for!
|
|
This site is so peaceful and away from the tourist trail, it takes 15 minutes to get to Keswick which was a joy, a chance to escape the bustle but be close enough to travel in for the evening if needed. We were happy to stay in the peace and quiet of Bassenthwaite Lodges for most of our evenings.
|
|
The siting of this park was the best ever - stunning!
|
|
This is a wonderful location with a variety of lodges. Just to be there and observe nature and watch the light change on the lake is an activity in itself before you even get your walking boots on! We loved it.
|
|
Excellent Park for using as a base to explore Northern/Western Lakes. Staff could not have been more helpful or friendly. They get ten out of ten!
|
|
The lodge was of a very high quality and we had a great time.
|
|
I am not going to recommend this holiday! It was fantastic with the lodge next to the water and wonderful views and wildlife all around us so I would rather keep it secret.
|
|
This is a fantastic site, the lodges are modern, clean and very comfortable. It is only a small walk to the lake and there are many lovely strolls to take from your door. Countryside - unbeatable. Chris the site manager was very friendly and helpful with information prior to arrival, and even with children and dogs it was still a calm and relaxing stay. We are just about to book again for next year!!!!!
|
|
I had a lot riding on this booking as it was for my girlfriends 30th birthday, and I have to say, I was not disappointed. Everything was perfect. The quality of the accommodation was superb and the park location was 5 out of 5.
|
|
A lovely location by the lake in a quieter part of Lake District, but within easy reach of Keswick. The park itself is beautifully landscaped and peaceful, and doggies are made especially welcome!
|
|
A beautiful, peaceful location and the lodges are furnished and cleaned to a high standard.
|
|
The accommodation was excellent. As the site was recovering from the Nov 2009 floods reception facilities were limited. Well worth a visit for the beautiful scenery and walks in the area Very peaceful site.
|
|
Stunning location, brilliant accommodation - all in all a really good weekend.
|
|
I should really recommend it, but it was too nice to share with others!!! We had a lovely holiday, the location was perfect, very peaceful. The dog is very sad to have come home.
|
|
First class accommodation and a first class park!
|
|
This is a quiet park, tucked out of the way and in a beautiful setting.
|
|
Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges was an absolutely super location if you prefer the quiet life. The scenery from our lodge was outstanding and so relaxing however, we were in very easy reach of all the other attractions of the lakes we wanted to see. I could thoroughly recommend this to couples or families because there was plenty to see and do, but it was comfortable and unspoiled.
|
|
A peaceful setting right by the lake, a bird lovers paradise. Lovely, clean accommodation, well equipped and spacious. A visit to the osprey viewpoint is a must, make sure you go to the high viewpoint. Everyone we met whilst walking the fells was friendly and willing to share their experiences.
|
|
Excellent service, excellent value. Thank you very much.
|
|
I would recommend this park to our friends who wish for a quiet, beautiful unspoilt part of the Lake District. It was lovely visiting the busy towns but so nice to get back to our lovely, quiet lodge with a view to die for!
|
|
For people who wish to holiday with their dogs, this location is unbeatable.
|
|
The park is quiet and in a very beautiful position, but is still only a 10 minute drive from Keswick. The accommodation is excellent!
|
|
A fantastic, tranquil spot with beautiful accommodation. The best lodge we have ever stayed in. We will definitely return.
|
|
This is a beautiful site, even in wet weather the view always held something of interest.
|
|
A spectacular location and comfortable lodges - the climbing frame was popular with the children.
|
|
If anyone is looking for a nice quiet break in a superb location, then Bassenthwaite Lodges is the place to go!
|
|
A very good away from it all holiday - beautiful setting, definitely recommended!
|
|
A beautiful location and the lodges are very good.
|
|
|
|
We tsayed here as we wanted a total switch off break, and that is exactly what we got. Beautiful, spacious lodges that are well equipped with everything you'd need. Staff are nice and friendly, and eager to help if you need it. So relaxing, with beautiful walks, and the lake for fishing or sailing if you have a boat. I would recommend it to anyone!
|
|
This site was beautiful, picturesque and peaceful. It was within easy reach of main towns and the information provided by the staff was of the highest value for sight seeing and getting the most out of the idyllic surroundings.
|
|
We had a lovely week ,and the location is lovely, although a little expensive.
|
|
Great location if you want to get away from it all. The view over the lake was spectacular. We booked a Woodland Lodge and were pleasantly suprised to have an elevated view over the lake. Overall, this is a great place to stay and is a good base for exploring the Lakes.
|
|
Perfect for quieter pursuits and the towns nearby are a walkers paradise. A perfect spot away from the more frenetic areas of the Lake District.
|
|
I am loathe to recommend this holiday break too highly for fear that everyone will want to enjoy it; making it, possibly, difficult next year to obtain a booking! You would need to travel the length and breadth of this country, or any other for that matter, to better this idyllic holiday retreat.
|
|
An excellent location in beautiful surroundings and very peaceful.
|
|
A great holiday, the location of the lodge was brilliant the scenery was amazing. I would definitely go back to Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges.
|
|
I have already recommended the holiday to friends and colleagues and certaibly would book the cabin again n the future. To wake up in the morning and look out across the breath-taking view of the lake was amazing and very calming to the stressful spirit - it put things into perspective. All the amenities were fine and there are some wonderful places to visit and eat/drink at in the vicinity. Something for everyone really.
|
|
The standard of accommodation of the lodges was excellent and the views from the lodges of the lake and surrounding area was the best we have ever had in the Lakes and Keswick was a quick 5 minute drive away, we had a fantastic weekend holiday and would recommend these lodges to everyone.
|
|
A wonderful setting, excellent, clean and comfortable accommodation and helpful and friendly staff.
|
|
Fantastic location.
|
|
If you want peace and quiet with no interuptions and a fantastic view, Bassenthwaite Lakeside Lodges is the place for you!
|
|
It was a perfect holiday, brilliant quiet location, everything was exceptional.
|
|
We have stayed at this park twice before. It is a lovely setting and the staff are friendly and helpful. The lodges are well kept and clean and tidy. We will definitely stay here again in the future.
|
|
This was the best holiday I have had in the UK. The location was lovely and peaceful, the view from the lodge was amazing - cant wait to go back!
|
|
Very helpful and accommodating staff to compliment the beautiful surroundings of the park.
|
|
This is our second visit to this park as it is the best place for a relaxing, quiet and care free holiday!
|
|
We had a fantastic time. The cabin was very comfortable and spotlessly clean, lovely bedding, duvets and towels, we were made very welcome even our dog had his own towel, poop bags and a chewy left for him what a lovely touch! Can't wait to go back again, beautiful scenery and only 4 miles from Keswick it was Wonderful.
|
|
The setting and the accommodation were very good.
|
|
First class accommodation and a first class holiday. The most relaxed holiday we have had in a long time!
|
|
Our Lakeside Lodge was beautifully furnished and in a wonderful position right on the edge of the lake. The park was quiet and peaceful yet just a few minutes drive from Keswick. The Sun Inn at Bassenthwaite served good food at reasonable prices in a very friendly atmosphere.
|
|
A great holiday - myself, my wife, baby and grandparents had a wonderful time. There was lots of room in the comfortable, warm Lakeside Lodge, and after a long day out it was great to come back to the lodge and sit enjoying the view from the living room. We will be recommending this holiday to friends and family. I've been holidaying in the Lakes for 30 years and have never stayed in a more relaxing environment. Holiday tips : Dodd Wood always a must, check out the cafe and Mire House. Thornthwaite Forest is great fun, look out for the Ospreys in the spring. Visit Hawkshead to check out clothing bargains, and for a night out we always go to the Royal Bengal in Keswick for a good Indian meal or Sweeneys for something more traditional.
|
|
A little bit of heaven in your wellies!!!!
|
|
A beautiful lodge with a great view of the lake. A perfect spot to enjoy a holiday at the lakeside of the unspoilt Bassenthwaite lake with beautiful surroundings!
|
|
We would recommend these lodges to anyone who likes a peaceful holiday in great surroundings.
