First class amenities for outdoor activites, in a relaxing atmosphere which adds to the quality of the holiday. Highly recommend Kielder Water.

Excellent location and a beautifully maintained park with very friendly people.

A quiet park ideal for relaxing.

Something for every age group- an excellent venue for a family gathering.

For walkers - perfect, for relaxing - perfect. Could not fault it in any way, we will definitely be going back!

An excellent experience with nature and walks.

I would recommend this park to everyone I see. The area and the park are first class, and if you like wildlife then this is the place you need to be - deers, squirrel, birds and rabbits etc, you can sit outside your cabin all day and just watch them. The walk around the lake is relaxing as you have no hills and can walk at your own pace. The restaurant is first class and very good value for money - we will certainly be going back!

We found our holiday very quiet and peaceful, the area is quite large so you don't feel crowded. We loved the birds and animals, we saw red and roe deer, red squirrels, and were fortunate to see the Ospreys that are nesting there for the first time in 200 years, and many other wild birds.

Kielder is a brillant place to stay with lots of activities on the doorstop, also great cycling!

Truly the most amazing place in England, a cyclists paradise! The log cabins are very luxurious, we will return next year!

Perfect location to get away from it all. Great accommodation, friendly helpful staff. Brilliant.

The parks provides very good accommodation in a beautiful and peaceful setting,the staff are very friendly and there is lots of activities available. It's great for walking and bike riding, an overall relaxing holiday and we will be sure to visit again.

Kielder Lodges is in a beautiful location with lots of facilities. The lodges were luxurious and it was a perfect holiday for the family!

If you love nature this is a great place to be, people take a lot of care of the animals living there.

A very comfortable and relaxing break in peaceful and attractive surroundings. I would definitely return in the future!

A good relaxing holiday for all the family. My teenage son was blown away with the bike trails and it was so good to see my husband and son bonding on the trails and enjoying the great outdoors, while me and my twin girls chilled and enjoyed the fabulous views and lovely accommodation.

We went for my sisters birthday, excellent service, very friendly and we are already planning on coming back!! Very realaxing, we saw 5 red squirels, and yes its true, the birds really do eat out your hand - it was like a Disney movie with the rabbits in the back round!! There is to explore, a fantastic place to have a picnic and right by the river - thanks Hoseasons!

A clean and friendly site with brilliant views.

A great chance to get back to nature and get away from the crowds. We were delighted by the very warm welcome and helpfulness of local people. The site was ideal for children with the use of the swimming pool, entertainment at the Lakeside restaurant, mini golf and the Lakeside trail. We also enjoyed visiting the sculptures dotted around the lake and the canoeing run by the Calvert Trust.

This is a lovely site and fantastic for families. The Lake has beautiful trails all the way round (uncrowded) which lead to the various visitor sites, these trails in the main through Keilder Forest are fantastic for bike riding or walking and are suited to all abilities. I hadn't been on a bike for many years and managed a few miles during the break much to the amusement of my children (age 12 and 7) but it was good to beable to do something as a family. I would recommend this if you have been thinking about getting back on a bike its a brilliant way to get back in to it in a safe and beautiful environment.

An excellent location with lots to do for an active family! Or you can just chill out and enjoy the scenery!

Definately reccommend this type of holiday as it is a lovely part of britain and the site has not spoilt the beauty of the place but has enhanced it by giving people a chance to see it.

The lodge was excellent and catered excellently for our 1 year old son. We would certainly recommend the park for families - we had a lovely time!

Accommodation was fantastic, very well equipped and very clean. Staff on site very friendly, amazing views.

The lodge was excellent and the location was brilliant.

Relaxing location, very good lodge, great for the outdoor enthusiast.

Kielder Water is a fantastic site for those looking for peace and relaxation in a stunning location. Very family friendly, and perfect for those looking for a holiday that connects them with the outdoors. Our three children loved going out on their bikes and on the ferry that connects the visitor centers around the reservoir, whilst the on site facilities were safe enough for them to enjoy without too much supervision - the great play area small pool being a definite favourites.

We use this facility every year because of the free fishing package you get with the company. This year 2 walkers came with our party and we used the boat to ferry them across the reservoir then they walked half of the reservoir one day and half the next day as Kielder is approximately a 27 mile walk all the way round this was ideal for them. We will all be back next year. The lodges are immaculate the staff are very helpful & the location is the best in England.

The food in the on site restaurant was amazing with very good home cooked food - I must have gained 10lbs !

Kielder Water Forest Park is a must for all ages and all abilities. The perfect setting to chill-out and/or challenge yourself.

The accommodation is not only easy to find, but is exactly as described. Our first impressions were excellent. The accommodation and all of the park facilities were immaculately clean at all times. We cannot wait to visit again.

Exactly what the brochure says. Excellent facilities, staff tremendous. Location incredible and so quiet. Well worth a stay.

Peace and quiet in a beautiful and stunning location! - Heaven.

A peaceful park,fantastic walks and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

It's ideal if you're looking for peace & quiet, all visitors are very friendly.

This is a fabulous park providing peace and quiet.

Beautiful location and excellent accommodation. Great facilities, lots to do. Loved the bike trails and the ferry. Only regret is didn't have enough time in a weekend to see and do all we wanted

A stunning location with warm and cosy accommodation - perfect!

This was a peaceful and very scenic park and was great for unwinding.

If you want a peaceful holiday in the middle of a forest by a lake, but still retaining the luxuries of home, this is the place to go.

Thanks for a very peaceful, relaxing and happy stay at this park. Our expectations were exceeded from the moment we arrived until we left! All of the staff, both at the park and at the other sites around Kielder Water were more than helpful, and were only too happy to take the time to answer our many questions and to offer other suggestions for entertainment. We would recommend this park to anyone - with or without children - so, if you are looking to get away from it all and enjoy the great outdoors, then this could be the holiday for you!

This park is ideal for a get away from it all break!! Very peaceful and stress free !!

Will recommend to all friends and looking forward to Xmas break.

Great location for those with a passion for the outdoors. Paradise for walkers, moutain bike and fishing enthusiasts.

We have returned to Kielder Lodges four times now, and every time we come back, we are never failed to be impressed by the warmth and friendliness of the staff. If visiting, you must take the time to visit the Birds of Prey centre. The owner is a truly wonderful person. He and his staffs ability to put children at ease with these amazing birds is incredible. Our visits are always informative, educational, and engaging, and we cannot wait to return.

The staff were really friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. The lodge was spotless and extremely comfortable and we were impressed by the number of walks and activities available in the area.

A great get away location very quiet and peaceful, superb views and host of wildlife on your door step.

If you are looking for a "great escape" then Kielder Water can provide that for you - not even mobile phone reception is available, which resulted in a refreshing break and renewed energy for lifes challenges.

I would thoroughly recommend Kielder Water Lodges to anyone. The park is beautiful and the lodge was very clean and in good condition. The Bird of Prey Centre on site is definitely worth a visit.

We had a fabulously relaxing weekend break. Everything was perfect - accommodation, staff, facilities, food, even the weather! We can't wait to go back! Better than Center Parcs!!

An excellent short break enjoyed by 3 generations. A spacious yet warm lodge, very relaxing and peaceful yet enough to keep the children busy, all staff were very hospitable and good facilities to dine out on site.

Beautiful surroundings, value for money and a great place to relax and get away from it all.

Great place, pretty, very quiet and remote but has all you need. Good pub, good food, friendly staff, clean modern lodges, excellent for mountain biking. Pool was lovely not too cold. Shop not stocked like a supermarket but has all the essentials and more. Kids play area looked very new and was brilliant. Ps don't go if you can't live without a mobile phone for a few days as no signal!

A very peaceful park for a true "get away from it all" experience.

A fantastic week, and the staff could not have been more friendly!

A beautiful interior!

A beautiful location and setting. Very peaceful place, but you can be busy as well.

For a peaceful holiday, book it!

This holiday was relaxing and away from it all. The facilities were excellent and catered for our needs with a young child. Nothing was too much bother for the staff who were all very friendly.

This is the perfect place to get away from it all. Beautiful countryside, fabulous views, comfortable accommodation (I slept better there than at home!) and just very very relaxing. There are so many great walks you could go back year after year (which we do!!) plus you can easily nip up into Scotland and enjoy the scenery there. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city then this is the place for you. No mobile reception either, fantastic!!!!

If you are looking for peace and quiet in high class accomodation, Kielder Water lodges is for you.

Excellent location and facilities, great for getting away from it all. The kids loved it, great play areas and activities for them to do. Would definitely go back.

Probably the best Hoseasons accommodation we have stayed at!

The accommodation and the location were superb. Plenty of things to do and see. No traffic jams and plenty of fresh air and wildlife.

Spectacular location for active families - excellent value for money, the quality of lodges is second to none - a real home from home.

I would recommend this site to friends and family on the basis that the fishing fee was included and we did not have the pay the daily rate for fishing on the full days of our stay. I would stay at other parks if this was also the case.

We had a great holiday at Kielder Water. The views were stunning, the lodge was clean and well equipped, and the staff were all friendly and very helpful. Peaceful too. We will be back.

A fantastic location - I really felt that I had a great break because of the facilities and staff at the park.

A very peaceful and 'away from it all' holiday with plenty of walking and places to visit nearby.

We would highly recomment Kielder for a family holiday. The lodges are situated in a stunning location, and the weather didn't stop our adventures because there is so much to do and see. We would definitely like to make a return visit.

Perfect family getaway......excellent location and great facilities either on the complex or nearby....definitely will be coming back ....

This break was for my 50th birthday and it was fabulous - the weather, site staff, and Ray and Raymond at the bird of prey centre were so pleasant with a hands on experience with the birds. Waking up in the morning to a fantastic sunrise, and about 20 finches on our balcony with us when we were sat there. I would recommend this park for every age as there is so much to do and see.

A great location!

A real get away from it all place in a stunning location and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We could have stayed for a month and still found new things to do!

Kielder forest is an absolute delight, we just relaxed and enjoyed the parks facilities, we will definitely be back!

This park provides peaceful, relaxing, clean and comfortable accommodation and very friendly staff which contributed to a very good holiday. An excellent base for further exploration and excellent value for money!

A wonderful, relaxing holiday with lots to do.

Fantastic peaceful location, with plenty of activities should you want to pursue them. Staff extremely helpful, pleasant and make the stay extra special. Site is tranquil and relaxing. Would love to stay again.

This is a fantastic place for walking, cycling and water sport. We went with our dog and with 26 miles of shoreline we didn't get bored. I would definitely recommend this place, the lodges were very comfortable and in a great location at Kielder.

Exceptional value. Lodges equipped with everything you could possibly need - rain or shine!

A fantastic location to get away from it all and enjoy a relaxing time in one of the UK's most scenic areas, for those who want to expend some energy fantastic mountain biking is on your door step.

The park at Kielder was excellent. The lodges were excellent with a great layout and facilities, and it is a great base for a quiet and relaxing holiday in beautiful countryside.

This place is fantastic. We will be going back. The accommodation was great. We all truly loved this place and the staff really went out of their way to help, especially Mick who worked the night shift.

I would definitely recommend Kielder Lodges to everyone. This is the third time I have been and intend going back in the future.

Excellent family holiday, our teenagers enjoyed the extensive mountain biking, and all the family appreciated the walks, climbing at Calvert Trust, fishing, swimming pool, wildlife and scenery.

This is a great "get way from it all" holiday in beautiful Northumberland surroundings.

An amazing location with stunning views - excellent for families and couples, and so peaceful.

A very relaxing location, with excellent trails and paths which encourage you to enjoy all that the area has to offer. For cyclists, Kielder castle is ideally placed for a well earned break.

Glorious countryside.

All the staff were very helpful and friendly, the food in the bar was lovely. We really enjoyed our holiday.

An excellent, peaceful holiday.

A stunning and peaceful location with just the right number of lodges nicely spaced out. A real get away from it all yet not too far to drive for all the interesting local attractions, such as Hadrian's Wall, Alnwick Castle (a must for Harry Potter fans) and for those of us from more rural locations the opportunity to visit Europes largest shopping centre, Newcastle's Metro Centre. Then if you add in the opportunities to ramble, cycle and sail, there's something for everyone!

Excellent accommodation, beautiful countryside. Brilliant for families and close to Newcastle.

If you want to escape from it all the Kielder is the place to visit. Fabulous scenery, lots to entertain the children and at the same time educating them in the natural world. Alnwick Castle and gardens are also worth a visit - we can't wait to return!

This is an excellent destination for anyone who enjoys walking, cycling or just beautiful scenery! The location and views are fantastic and the accommodation is very comfortable. Something for everyone!!

A very warm welcome even though we arrived late, gorgeous views, a lovely cabin that was so clean and fresh. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

A fabulous setting, beautiful views, very helpful staff and peaceful and relaxing!

All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much bother. The location was beautiful and the lodges were clean, modern and extremely comfortable.

Beautiful location, friendly and helpful staff. This was our first holiday for 7 years and it was all we could have wanted from a short break. Will be booking again for next year (or sooner if possible!)

What a holiday! The staff couldn't have been more helpful and the Hadrian comfort lodge (the basic one) had a better equipped kitchen than what I have at home. There were plenty of tracks to explore and the scenery was breath taking. My teenage boys had a great time and didn't pine for their computer once. I will definitely be returning and staying in one of the log cabins.

It was a lovely weekend!

A peaceful and wonderful natural location, and together with excellent lodge accommodation helped to make it a great break. The staff were friendly and helpful and I would highly recommend this particular holiday experience to anyone.

We had a fantastic time at Kielder and couldn't have asked for a better location or accommodation. We will no doubt stay at Kielder again in the future.

I have visited the park twice now and it was a great experience both times. The staff are very helpful, the accommodation is very clean and it was a completely relaxing experience!

The site is in a fantastic location, very beautiful and the facilities and staff are excellent.

I would certainly recommend Kielder Lodges. The lodges are spacious, clean and the kitchens are well equipped. Plenty of places to walk with or without a dog, and good for bird lovers as the chaffinch are very friendly and will eat from your hand - a great short break!

Great accommodation, lovely staff and an ideal location.

What a beautiful tranquil location with plenty of trails on the doorstep. Nicely laid out cabins with enough privacy between them and not too many. Good facilities around the site without them being too commercial. Did not want to leave!

The parks facilities were excellent and the staff were very friendly, helpful and informative.

Great place for peace and quiet with plenty of outdoor activities.

The bird of prey centre is excellent!

Kielder Water Park is a fantastic getaway in a fabulous location. Great for families who wnat to relax but also plenty to do on the door step.

I would recommend Kielder Lodges to anyone who loves peace and quiet and nice walks, especially those taking their dogs with them. My partner was on leave from Iraq and it was the ideal place to unwind and relax.

What a beautiful location! Kielder is like it's own little world! We stayed for a week but wish we had two! The lodge's setting is lovely - we had the lake view one side and the forest the other. Stunning.

An excellent lodge and location.

For beautiful scenery and outdoor pursuits, to suit all levels of activity there is nowhere better. The ferry ride is educational as well as giving sight of views from a different aspect.

With beautiful views of Kielder Water and the surrounding countryside, very peaceful.

Had a great time, kitchen had everything we needed. Will come back again as there was something for everyone, my two sons hired bikes, my father went fishing, and we all had a night at the observatory which was the highlight of our stay (worth booking in advance of your trip) Would recommend the lodges to anyone especially early and late session as midgies are not around.

A relaxing and quiet break and a very comfortable lodge with all mod cons of home. Peace and quiet throughout the park and very helpful and friendly staff.

The park was beautiful and the rangers were so friendly and knowledgable, arranging interesting activities for all ages.

A beautiful peaceful location with excellent walking and cycling trails.

A real "get away from it all" holiday. What a beautiful undersold area of our country - we live virtually on the doorstep and hadn't realised what we were missing!

Lots to do for all the family did not need to leave the keilder park was fantastic and relaxing.

Would defo recommend to others and will defo come back!

We would gladly recommend this holiday experience to others because of the very high standards the cabins are furnished to, the cleanliness and the superb location, the friendliness of the staff on arrival and the general air of peaceful tranquility that surrounds the whole site.

This is a beautiful site, well-maintained with very clean and excellent quality accommodation. We booked the Redesdale Lodge, which was the cheapest, but still felt like we were spoilt! The staff are really friendly and helpful, and although the pool is small, the girls really enjoyed it. The sauna was an added bonus. There's plenty things to see and do, and the area is especially good for mountain biking and walking. The Bird of Prey Centre, Kielder Castle and the lovely village of Falside were highlights. We had a lovely, relaxing holiday in a beautiful setting.

We have already recommended the Kielder Lodges to friends. Another family with young children visited us and were really impressed with the accommodation and facilities. The car-park pass was a real help and was valid at all the other locations around the lake. This was really helpful as my husband has trouble with his knees and found that he could take the car down the hill to reception and the shop without having to worry about parking fees. The people in reception were excellent and very helpful when asking about fun things to do or when we were worried about our 9-month-old grand-daughter who was unwell. The pay phone in the lodge was a good idea as there wasn't any mobile signal! We did discover that there was a good signal from the shore-line at Leaplish and also from the area around Tower Knowe.

I would recommed this holiday - fantastic scenery and good bike tracks. A get away from it all holiday.

A superb holiday in a fantastic place.

Fantastic location.

Our lodge was wonderful and welcoming. A lovely tranquil place with lake views that would inspire any holidaymaker.

A peaceful relaxing holiday, or a lively adventure - you choose when staying in this excellent scenic location!

A beautiful location with spectacular views from our lodge. Most comfortable lodges with everything you need - top quality. We did not want to leave and will be definitely coming back!

We went to Kielder last year for a 4 day weekend & loved it so much we decided to go back for a week this year. Everyone is so welcoming & helpful, it's like going to stay with beloved relatives. We are already planning on making it an annual family holiday.

A superb short break, made even better since the building of the Lakeside Way - a multi use track around the perimeter of Kielder Water.

Good base from which to explore Northumbria. Good facilities on the park with lots of things to do to suit all ages.

What a fantastic place! The lodges are beautiful and very tastefully decorated with fabulous views. The food at the restaurant was excellent and there is lots to do should you choose to. We had a fantastic valentines weekend and we will definitely be back.

Probably the best holiday my wife and I have had!

A great place, a beautiful setting, very good facilities and friendly staff.

I would recommend this holiday to any family who enjoys walks, cycling and sightseeing. The lodges were large and well equipped, to coin a phrase 'home from home'.

Fantastic location, extremely peaceful, relaxing and quiet with enough activities in the park to entertain children. Great location for walks and bike rides, taking in the breathtaking views around Kielder Water. Would definitely return.

Ideal if you want to get away from it all and enjoy the wildlife with your family - it is tranquil and the ideal holiday.

Lovely and relaxing, quiet but not isolated with plenty to do and see in the area.

The holiday matched all its expectations - peaceful and relaxing in a beautiful setting. The holiday centre and surrounding area had all the facilities we needed to make our stay busy but thoroughly enjoyable!

We had a fantastic family holiday at Leaplish, Keilder. It was greatly enjoyed by our nineteen month old daughter and we all enjoyed all of the available facilities. We couldn't recommend the holiday highly enough - thank you!

I can recommend this holiday for anyone... whether on your own or part of a group or family.. there is something for everyone. Incredibly versatile.. Most of us lead busy lives with all that brings.. Kielder offers us the chance to unwind in a welcoming atmosphere of peace and tranquillity...

Very relaxing holiday. This site had shop, restaurant and bar as well as a swimming pool. These facilities were not available on other sites at Kielder.

A lovely break at Kielder. Friendly staff. Nice accommodation. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the setting of the beautiful water and forest. Very pretty. Our three year old loved the play area and the pool. Very peaceful for our stay. A place we will return too.

A wonderfully peaceful and tranquil site, yet geared up for children of all ages. The staff are very friendly.

A perfect place for peace and quiet if you need it. However there are plenty of activities available to entertain the children if necessary.

It was perfect as it was.

If you want a hassle free, noise free, relaxing time, with free views of nature then don't hesitate!

A beautiful setting and a high standard of accommodation.

The scenery is stunning and there is a lot to do just around the water side without going anywhere else in what is the most beautiful county in England.

We arrived to the warmest of welcomes and couldn't have asked for a better short break. We relaxed and chilled out with a wonderful view of Kielder Water from our lodge and took part in an archery lesson and water walking. A good time was had by all and we were sad to leave. Thank you to all the staff who made our stay wonderful!!

Lovely clean park and area.

The most peaceful, clean and friendly park I have ever stayed on. The scenery was beautiful and there are some fabulous walks. I couldn't fault any part of our holiday, right from the greeting to the accommodation - we have had a fantastic time!

A peaceful, away from it all break in good quality accommodation in a fabulous setting.

A beautiful place with lovely scenery. Staff were extremely welcoming and nothing was too much trouble.

It was a very comfortable and relaxing experience.

There was lots to do and see. The children enjoyed the entertainment.

For a complete get away from it break this is the place to go. It's in a lovely quiet setting (in the winter months at least which is when we went), with spectacular views. Set in one of the more remote areas of England you can easily unwind within minutes, however if you want to be more active there are excellent opportunities to go mountain biking, walking or nature watching, all on your doorstep as well!

Beautiful location, peaceful, idyllic, perfect place to unwind.

Kielder Lodges is the perfect 'getaway from it all' retreat. Its so peaceful, and the air so clean that you could return time and time again.

This location is beautiful and peaceful, as it the whole of the surrounding area - a wonderful chance to get away from it all and relax in beautiful surroundings.

The staff on this park are excellent, from the reception to the maintenance and restaurant they are all outstanding.

A beautiful location and a high standard of accommodation, I would highly recommended for a relaxing break away.

Fantastic location without being commercialised.

I would like to compliment the staff for both their helpfulness, and for the high standard of cleanliness and maintainance to the accommodation. We thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and cannot suggest anything that could be done better - all our needs were taken care of.

Excellent facilities, extremely friendly staff, clean and modern accomodation. Great views and plenty to do.

I have already told quite a few family and friends about our stay and have recommended this ii. It was a lovely break and I would love to return some time soon - thankyou!

The location of this park is excellent for a peaceful walking, and/or biking holiday with many historical attractions close by.

It was exactly as advertised - luxury lodges amid beautiful scenery with a peaceful atmosphere.

It was very relaxing and dog friendly.

The accommodation was very good and our teenage children thoroughly enjoyed the cycling, horse riding etc.

The great wood lodges were fantastic the man who owns them is very nice with us, they are very clean and in a good area.

Kielder Water is lovely, we had an eight year old, a four year old and a dog and all had plenty to keep them entertained. It is peaceful, clean and teaches children the importance of looking after our environment for wildlife and being healthy and active without forcing it on them and whilst they're having fun.

Great facilities, fantastic views and a lovely setting! Our family enjoyed this holiday very much as there was lots to see and do. The children (aged 5 & 2) loved the adventure playground!

Great for the peace and quiet, stunning scenery, biking and walking.

There is something for everyone at Kielder, we took our bikes and enjoyed the whole 27 miles around the dam, and the 11 mile walk the next day.

We are repeat customers with Hoseasons because we know we can rely on the quality of the whole package without too much research and checking on our part. Kielder Water is well up to the usual high standards we have come to expect. The helpfulness and friendly attitude of the reception staff in particular was outstanding - sorry didn't get his name. He was so good even my husband would ask for his help and advice and he couldn't do enough for us - even checking that a pub we were going to was open for food to avoid a wasted journey for us.

We would recommend it for the peacefulness and great surroundings that the lodges are in, also friendly and very helpful staff. Bird of prey centre second to none...

Anyone who would like to relax in total peace and quiet need look no further than Kielder Lodges!

The standard of the fittings in the lodge were superb and it was very comfortable. We would have no hesitation in recommending Kielder Water Lodges to anyone.

Everything about our stay was lovely and relaxing. We were really impressed with the park and the accommodation - an excellent holiday!

High standard lodge, very nice location, great area for cycling.

The location of Kielder is second to none. It was a part of the country we have never been to before and we were amazed by all the local attractions and Kielder Water itself. We would not hesitate to recommend it to friends and family and would love to go again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our break, it was lovely and peaceful and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was out of season when we visited but there was still enough going on for a varied break away, and the facilities on site would keep a family amused for any length of holiday!

The site location is excellent and the staff really were very, very good indeed.

A fabulous location, stunning views and practical and comfortable accommodation. Overall a great place for a short break!

The park landscaping was well kept and clean and the reception and security staff were very helpful and friendly.

Kielder is a great holiday location if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of normal life. Great for cyclists and walkers. Food on site good. We also ate out at 2 lovely pubs nearby...The Blackcock and The Pheasant at Falstone....Food very good at both. My daughter loved the bird of prey centre and swimming pool on site. We chose this location because we wanted to bring our dog on holiday with us....I don't believe we could have done any better....A great holiday experience made all the better by friendly staff who were extremely helpful.

The staff at the park could not have been any more helpful and friendly. The children loved the pool, playground and we all enjoyed the lovely walks. We had a great weekend break and will definitely be looking to return again this year.

Excellent walks right on your doorstep and within 5 a minute drive.

The perfect tranquil break away from noise and bustle - but not away from excellent facilities!

Can't recommend this site enough, third year we have been here. Lodges are clean and comfortable. Park is peaceful with lots of walks, great for dog lovers!! Cycle paths are well laid out and cater for all abilities. Can't wait to go back.

We had an excellent time and a most relaxing break.

The holiday at Keilder was a great place to chill out. The scenery is fantastic and the accommodation is very clean and comfortable. T he fact that we could take the dog made it more appealing - thank you for a wonderful break with friendly staff always on hand.

If you like tranquility, wildlife and water there is no better place in the UK!

For a peaceful retreat away from civilisation, Kielder Water ticked all of the boxes. Lovely clean facilities too - thank you!

We would recommend this as it was a good location, beautiful scenery, wildlife and generally a peaceful retreat. Good clean accommodation.

Very quiet and peaceful with lots of good walking and cycle trails.

A "get away from it all" holiday, total relaxation, or plenty of activities if you're feeling like taking part. No one bothers you, a very quiet location, but with plenty to view and see, all in all a superb relaxing holiday.

This is the fourth time that I have been to this camp and have always found it to be relaxing. It is a beautiful setting with lots of walking and biking trails for all types of levels. All the trails are well sign posted so they are easy to follow. The snow this year enhanced the Winter Wonderland theme and made the place even more magical. The sites and sounds first thing in the morning were breath-taking.

Perfect for a quiet get away, just remember to take lots of food as the nearest supermarket is an hour away. Excellent for walkers and there was so much to see and do. We will definitely be going back as we loved it very much.

A fantastic week spent in a beautiful place in a luxury lodge, what more could you want?

A great retreat - we were able to totally unwind!

an excellent park, well looked after and cared for. The service was excellent, and the lodge had been updated with new furniture within the 2 years of our last visit. Walks around Kielder on well laid out footpaths with varied distances and new footpaths were made since last visit. Though the park appeared to be fully occupied it was quiet and peaceful.

Excellent chance to enjoy nature and experience luxury accommodation and helpful staff. Dogs made welcome.

The mountain biking was absolutely amazing! I booked our holiday for my husbands 40th birthday and because of the landscape and biking trails he would recommend the park to anyone interested in mountain biking - our 7 year old loved it too!

I would recommend this holiday to friends and family.

Great lodges, fishing, scenery, walks and food.

A beautiful location and excellent accommodation. It was relaxing for parents but energetic, stimulating and fun for the kids. The park staff were extremeley helpful and always smiling and the on site bird of prey centre was marvellous. All the staff at the centre were extremley knowledgable, and they talked and involved our children to make it one of the best afternoons we had!

Great location, wonderful log cabins and lovely family holiday.

If you are looking for peace and quiet in an outstanding location with very good accommodation and servicesn then this is for you!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent facilities. Accommodation was outstanding. The best holiday we've had in uk!

Kielder Water is just fantastic. We stayed for a week with our children who loved the area and facilities available. I cannot recommend this location and accommodation enough, just lovely. The cabins have everything you could need and there is so much to do, we will definitely be returning.

A wonderfully relaxing holiday, good family facilities and an ideal centre for canoeing, sailing, fishing and cycling.

Great location - you can get away from the world whilst also being within easy reach of local attractions!

Excellent location/facilities.

Kielder is a fantastic park!

Fantastic setting... extremely peaceful. Waterside walks are brilliant... great paths suitable for all walkers/cyclists... and the works of art were great attractions to go and see along the way. Accommodation was brilliant... again peaceful and furnished very well.

The whole area is extremely beautiful and I would definitely recommend this as a base for exploring the area.

A great location for some of the very best purpose made mountain biking trails.

I would recommend this holiday to my friends because its completely different to any other holiday, you get peace of mind and tranquility. It's not like the usual holidays, here you have peace and freshness.

We had a fantastic stay at Kielder, and would recommend Leaplish to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday with plenty of opportunities to enjoy outdoor pursuits without the huge crowds you tend to find in beautiful country locations. We can not praise the service we recieved from the reception staff enough - they helped us from the start, right to the finish of our stay. Another recommendation would be the bird of prey centre on site. The workers there were very knowledgeable and took pride in their centre.

Excellent, we will be back soon!

An excellent holiday with great facilities for families to enjoy. The accomodation was of a very high standard and the park staff were very helpful. The park was also very dog friendly.

Very clean lodges that were also nice and cosy and warm.

What an excellent location - no mobile phone reception which meant a holiday of none interruption. The sights are magnificent and the whole area is so peaceful.

A fantastic getaway, so quiet and peaceful - getting back to nature at its best.

An excellent park, stunning location, very high quality lodges, very polite and helpful staff and an excellent on site restaurant. A must if you want to get away from it all!

A very relaxing week in a beautiful part of the country.

Kielder Forest can be a totally relaxing experience or as energetic as you like, its entirely up to the indiviudal. For me, its a great way of spending quality time with family and friends, away from the hustle and bustle of the working week.

Overall had an excellent time. Everyone was so helpful and to top it all my 11 year old daughter caught a 3 pound trout!

Stunning scenery, great views, lovely quiet roads to drive on, great places to visit, friendly, welcoming people. We had a truly fantastic time, thank you.

In comparison to other holiday companies who's website and brochures fall well short in quality and hygiene, this is the real deal. Top quality accommodation, super facilities, excellent hygiene, friendly staff and a fantastic location with breath taking views. We are already looking forward to next years holiday!

Beautiful location, many things to do including a good place to enjoy the quiet; friendly and helpful people and good food in the restaurant.

This holiday location is great for getting away from it all. The scenery is breathtaking and don't think you can beat it for wildlife. Be prepared to drive to alot of places though. Make sure you take your bike and a good pair of walking shoes!

I have recommended the Kielder Water Lodges to anyone who will listen, as we enjoyed it so much and will be visiting again in the near future.

The position of the park was brilliant - the lakeside path has really added to the experience.

The area is stunning and so accessible. The lodges are really comfortable and to a good standard. The staff are also very friendly in a very natural way.

Lovely site with fantastic accommodation and lots to do if you like the great outdoors. Have been to this site three times in the two years and am looking forward to booking a break here again.

A fantastic setting with wonderful accommodation.

Beautiful woodland setting, spotless accommodation with everything you could need.Peace and quiet and the refreshing smell of pine trees, bliss! I would thoroughly recommend it.Just don't forget the bird seed.The chaffinches come come so close that you have to take a few steps back to get a photo!

The accommodation at Kielder Lodges was very very clean, the kitchen and bathrooms were immaculate and for the money we were very pleased. Obviously the setting is spectacular as well and we loved the hide to watch the red squirrels.

Fantastic location, lodges are very comfortable, a lovely family holiday.

An absolutely wonderful, tranquil location with breathtaking scenery all around!

Very friendly reception staff who went out of their way to be helpful - we will be there next year!

Excellent surroundings and perfect for an active or a relaxing break with lots of walking and cycling to do, even for young children.

The lodges are very modern and a home from home - we were very happy!

Lovely relaxing site with plenty of facilities all within walking distance of the lodges. Easy to reach different parts of the lake either by boat, bike or walking.

Fantastic family holiday. Somewhere just to 'Get away from it all'. The whole family loved it here, from the lovely forest walks to the swimming pool and bird of prey centre, we will definitly go back.

We loved Kielder! The lodges were very clean and very well equipped, and the staff were fantastic and very helpful. There was plenty for the kids to do, and I would recommend it - we will be returning!

The setting was fantastic - a truly relaxing break!

Very chilled out holiday with beautiful scenery.

Fabulous place to stay. It was the best Hoseasons lodge park we have ever stayed in, clean, tidy and very peaceful. Our lodge had a lovely view of the water.

This holiday was fantastic for relaxation and peace and quiet, anybody wanting to get away from the stress of everyday life would love it.

Fabulous lodges in a beautiful setting with lots to do. The walks are amazing and many are family-friendly. My five and eight-year olds loved the Kielder Keepsake walk on the Bull Crag Peninsula. Northumberland is a beautiful county. We didn't want to leave!

Beautiful surroundings, value for money and we loved being able to take our dog with us.

We were happy with everything -I couldn't improve it!

It's such a beautiful location, absolutely stunning, with good, new activities and visitor centres in the area. The nature on the doorstep is exceptional; I saw wildlife I've never seen anywhere else before (including a snake!) The bird of prey centre was excellent, lots of time handling the birds which I didn't expect and the staff were lovely, knowledge and passionate about the subject and clearly care a great deal about what they do. Very special.

Friendly and relaxed staff who appear happy to work in such a beautiful location. A peaceful and relaxed environment with spectacular views over Kielder Water. Good quality and clean lodges with adequate space and all the equipment needed to self cater. Pub onsite is reasonably priced and provides good food.

We enjoyed very pleasing accommodation in a peaceful and beautiful 'get away from it all' kind of place, where you can enjoy restful calm or be active on the water and on foot, or bike in the woods and the surrounding area.

I think if you are looking for a quiet holiday in the country then Keilder is perfect.

Excellent location and great facilities for biking weekends in the Kielder region. Chose self-catering, but ended up eating in the restaurant each night as the food was fabulous.

Safe for children and plenty to do but also peaceful. The wildlife is wonderful, 3 deer stopped in our path one evening, and my girls spent an hour every morning sat on the grass outside the cabin tempting the many birds with morsels of bread. We cycled to Kielder Castle one day, stopping to look at the art in the forest and we ate homemade food at reasonable prices in the castle grounds at lunchtime.

The location is absolutely gorgeous, the lodges are luxurious, the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, and there is loads to do, from mountain biking to swimming to crazy golf to walking and bird watching. We loved it and we will be back!

This is a very relaxing environment although there are just the right amount of activities if you wish to get involved. Play areas for the children were many and varied - our children loved them all!

The quality and standard of the lodges was higher than any others we've experienced!

After self catering abroad (twice per year for 15 years) we have now discovered a vastly superior facility in EVERY respect, much closer to home. If "assured sun" is not the only essential, then this holiday beats the lot of them HANDS DOWN!

The lodges at Kielder Water could not be faulted. The staff were more than very good, they were superb and so very friendly and cheerful. The location is just perfect - we have returned home refreshed and will definitely return there. Feeling uptight? this is the place to go to - the stresses of everyday life just melt away as you listen to the gentle lapping water, the singing of the birds and the rustling of the wind in the pine trees. Good facilities all round the lake without being commercialised. So good to see so many youngsters being active and healthy - and with their parents - not a bored, petulant expression in sight.

A lovely experience, very scenic. A very relaxing time, saw lots of wildlife... including many birds and the Osprey and Red Squirrels. The Double bed in the Otterstone Executive was very comfortable. Would definitely go again.

An excellent park, in a complete get away from it all location but with all facilities on hand - I would recommend to anyone.

A very pleasant location, lots of wildlife to see, very clean and comfortable accommodation and great facilities. We could not have asked for more!

The lodges were first class with all the facilities we needed. The scenery was jaw droppingly beautiful, and the walking and cycling tracks were great with hidden art gems along the way. I would recommend a visit to the Bird of Prey Centre.

This is the first time we have tried a log cabin and it was lovely. If you are into to walking or cycling, like the peace and quiet, this is the place for you. It was very tranquil and fitted the bill for us. There was a lovely pub approximately 5 miles drive but not much else to do which suited us fine. We took 2 dogs which had a wonderful time being off the lead. All the paths are off the road so the dogs ran free all week. The lodge was wonderful with the best view of the lake (lake view is a must) highly recommended.

This is the kind of holiday you make yourself it can be full of activities if you want, or quite restful like we had and enjoyed. This holiday is for young and old alike.

A lovely location, unspoilt and with plenty of things to see and do in the area.

Chap on reception desk was brilliant - so friendly and helpful, nothing seemed too much trouble for him at all.

A great way to unwind from everyday stress! So peaceful, but plenty for the teenagers to do, cycling, walking, canoeing, climbing etc. A great holiday for the whole family to enjoy.

Beautiful setting for a peaceful holiday. Fantastic for children and dogs, plenty of parks to keep the children amused and loads of walks for the dog. Lodges are lovely with everything you need for your stay. The pool and sauna are a bonus. Friendly staff, we had a lovely weekend there, would definitely book again.

The lodges are so comfortable that we even mentioned that we could live in one. It was so peaceful and relaxing, the staff were so friendly and helpful.

Lovely location and a very high standard of cleaning carried out by staff in getting the lodge ready.

The area is a place of beauty and the place to come for peace and quiet.

A breath of fresh air, so peaceful and idyllic.

Peaceful and relaxing place to get away from it all.

I have already recommended this holiday to our in-laws who love country walks and observing wildlife. Everyone should experience the vast beauty of this place at least once in their life!

Extremely helpful staff. Tuition on activities was excellent (well done Aaron!) The site was very peaceful and clean. Our 10 year old son had 'an introduction to Falconry' which was superb.

A wonderful holiday where all the family can enjoy the beauty of the landscape. TV suddenly becomes unimportant and the activities available are maximised. The luxury of family meals out are pleasurable as prices are not over inflated.

Beautiful scenery, very peaceful and alot of wildlife.

Lovely clean site, relaxing, very peaceful if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of every day life.

It was a perfect setting.

Absolutley recommended. We have been to Kielder that many times we have lost count! It is a wonderful location for walking, star gazing at the observatory, relaxing and so forth. The staff at reception are fabulous, in particular John and Tracey. The accommodation is outstanding, spacious, and very clean, and there is everything on site: a restaurant for fabulous food and entertainment, shop, swimming pool, DVD library, information, a park and actitivies.

We chose this holiday for peace and tranqility (and out of season) and that is what we got.

Great holiday, quiet family break, would go back again.

We had a Tynedale Classic lodge and found it to be very spacious with both a shower room and a family bathroom which had a spa bath which the children loved, and a well equipped kitchen. You must visit the Kielder Bird of Prey Centre as the demonstrations enable you to join in - altogether a very relaxing time was had by all of us!

What a fantastic 3 days we had and next time will be for longer as there is still loads for us to see and do. The staff are so welcoming and helpful and the lodge we stayed in was wonderful, could not fault it at all. Also NO slot machines thank goodness. I would highly recommend Kielder Water Lodges as you can have the best of both worlds peaceful and relaxing or active, the choice is yours.

A truly great holiday experience, the park is in a beautiful location and the lodges are spotless and have excellent facilities. We took our young children and we all had a brilliant time!

Would definitely recommend Kielder Forest for a short break or holiday. Nice, quiet, relaxing place but plenty to do and staff give 110% at all times - always cheerful, polite and extremely helpful.

We had a fantastic time - beautiful location, nice and peaceful but plenty to do. Very friendly & helpful staff.

We had a superb stay, value for money, fantastic accommodation and above all in a very tranquil and beautiful surrounding. we will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for a fabulous holiday!!!

It was just a lovely, relaxing retreat.

Kielder Water Lodges are perfectly situated, whether you want tranquility, leisurely walks or bike rides, or for the more adventurous, the miles of mountain bike routes - all a stones throw away from the lodges. Perfect!

We have stayed at Leaplish Lodges many times now and feel that it is an excellent holiday for us as a family with our dogs. So much open spaces to explore.

An excellent venue to get away from it all. Park up your car and come back to it a week later. Ideal for families who like to be busy in the outdoors.

I loved this holiday. We wanted a relaxing break in the country but with a bit more luxury than camping offers, and we were not disappointed. The accommodation was superb and fully stocked with everything we needed including a fully fitted kitchen. It was lovely to take the dog with us so he could enjoy the holiday too. I would recommend this holiday to anyone wanting a nice chill out holiday. Lovely

This holiday was wonderful for anyone wanting a relaxed break. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed just going at our own pace and enjoying the beautiful sceney, comfortable accommodation and wildlife.

We loved this place from the minute we arrived. It is very peaceful and relaxing and views are spectacular! Lodges are lovely (very clean)and well presented. Staff couldn't be more helpful! Will definitely return.

A smashing site in a superb location, this is our third visit and we will be back!

We have never booked a lodge before, and were more than pleasantly surprised at the standard of the accommodation.

The setting and view from our log cabin was wonderful, a very peaceful, enjoyable few days away. We also loved the tracks for dog walking straight from our door.

This is our fourth time at this park and we will be coming back as it is very relaxing, has fantastic accommodation and the wildlife is in abundance. The facilities on site are great but you must love the outdoors to get the most out of this holiday.

A beautiful park in an unspoilt and fantastic location.

We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather with the sun shining every day for our late April holiday!! Very enjoyable, peaceful surroundings. A most relaxing holiday! Kielder Water is highly recommended!

The quality of the lodges far exceeded our expectations. One of the few holidays where we were not wanting for anything, everything was catered for which helped make it a very special holiday in outstanding surroundings.

Family friendly, excellent faciities and very good value for money.

We really enjoyed our new year break. We will certainly be looking to book again for this new year, and other friends have asked if they can join us. I told a friend about our stay, and how much we enjoyed it, and she has already booked for a break there in March with her husband. I can not fault our stay.

We'd recommend to others because of the peaceful location and the very friendly and helpful staff.

Peace, beauty, fabulous accommodation and just perfect - we will be back!

A holiday location that is peaceful and where time seems to stand still. Facilities are available for the adventurous and the not so.

The accommodation was spotless and very well kitted out - I will return!

The park was brilliant, and the lodge was really clean and furnished excellently. The staff were all really helpful and friendly!

We would recommend the site especially if you want to escape the rest of the world and experience peace and quiet. A time to take stock of life, to enjoy the breathtaking views and the beautiful forest. Be aware you need to be prepared for no immediate access to shops, banks or petrol station but if you are forewarned you can ensure you plan for this. It is a place to relax, to enjoy the outdoors, finish the day off with a swim and let the rest of the world go by.

The park was really quiet and peaceful but there was still plenty for the children to do.

The area was very quiet and calm, the perfect place to relax. Very dog friendly and a great area for them to explore.

Excellent accommodation - tranquil location - a real get away from it all break.

Very peaceful, friendly staff, lovely location.

The holiday was great, the lodge was great but there is a need for better choices of venues for evening meals. one night most of the close by facilities were all closed or closed early; the one we did find had a very limited menue choice. One could easily get the feeling that these facilities are run for the benefits of the staff etc rather than the holiday maker! However once again the holiday site was all we expected and we would certainly recomend it to others and visit ourselves again. Thank You

Well appointed, clean and comfortable accommodation in a peaceful and beautiful environment.

Fresh air, calming waters, searing sunsets and a 'deafening' silence. A perfect setting for a hideaway holiday.

Very spacious and well equipped accommodation, furnished to a high standard in an idyllic setting.

Excellent lodges, good sized for a good price and a very pretty location.

We found the holiday sooooo relaxing and in beautiful surroundings, it was one of the few times my wife said she didn't want to go home.

This resort is a bit of a hidden secret - quiet, peaceful and yet plenty to do locally (30mins drive), or on site.

A fabulous base for an outdoor family holiday, the bird of prey centre is a must see!

Very well kept site, offering a peaceful hideaway.

This was a fantastic break! A gorgeous setting and the lodges were of a very high standard. We would definitely return, possibly for longer next time!

Space and quiet - a luxury!

Wonderful views, friendly and helpful staff, great for walking, cycling and lots of interesting places to visit. Plenty of small villages around.

Everything scored 10/10. The place was magical, and even though it did rain slightly we had a fantastic time and would recommend it to all ages. The cabins were perfect and were like a home for home. The only bad bit about the break was that we had to leave! This holiday has ranked up with the best of them!!! Perfect for taking the kids and we would definitely recommend taking the ferry.

A remote and beautiful location, not densily populated with lodges or tourists. Vast amount of activities to entertain the children and th on site facilities are excellent with designated activities to amuse the children. Very good and reasonably priced public house on site.

Brilliant place to walk with stunning scenery and wildlife. As peaceful and relaxing as you want it to be.

A fantastic and peaceful location with luxurious accommodation in a dream setting in the woods by the lake. You could be anywhere in the world!

The fabulous Bird of Prey Centre was fantastic, and we wish we were there for the Winter Wonderland festivities. Beautiful surroundings, lots to see and do and the lodge was terrific!

No, I'm not telling anybody......I want to keep Kielder Forest all for myself!

This holiday was excellent and will suit everyone. It can be peaceful and relaxing yet they are many walks, cycle routes, water sports and other activities for those who want to be active. Accommodation is very clean and furnished to a high standard. We will be booking again.

I would highly recommend this park. The lodge was beautifully decorated to a very high standard and it is a perfect place to enjoy a relaxing weekend with fantastic scenery. I would not hesitate to return!

Quiet even when busy, helpful and welcoming staff. Extremely beautiful surroundings, with lots to do or just sit back and enjoy the scenery. Have now visited Xmas and Easter, both wonderful holidays. Cabins spaced far enough apart, a very relaxing holiday.

If you want a peaceful and very relaxing break this is the place. Very beautiful and quiet, no crowds, exceptionally friendly and helpful staff.

Fresh air, very clean, comfortable, warm and well equipped accommodation. Lovely quiet location with plenty to do for all ages.

Extra special little touches e.g. Mother's Day gift and flowers which was really lovely.

Staying at Kielder Lodges was a lovely experience. The staff were very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful. The cabin was immaculate and well furnished with all the mod cons. There was so much to do and see, and had my children been younger there were some great play parks. My boys who are 17 and 25 enjoyed the swimming pool and of course the fishing. We took some scenic walks with our border terrier, and took in the tranquility of the surroundings. In the evening we enjoyed the hospitality of the restaurant and bar. We would definitely return.

This is a perfect tranquil getaway. I will be going back every year!! Abby, North Licolnshire.

A tranquil experience if you want it but also plenty to do with miles of walking and biking routes, water sports, fishing and boating.

I would recommend this holiday to all ages, for my family this holiday was just great.

Lovely, clean, modern accommodation. Beautiful views and peaceful atmosphere.

An excellent lodge with stunning views and very friendly staff made it a very pleasurable weekend - thanks.

I would recommend this holiday, the accommodation (The Cheviot) was spotless & the cleaners were very helpful & friendly. The gentleman on reception was lovely with a very happy personality that made you feel happy as well.

A beautiful location and excellent facilities - a very relaxing, family holiday.

Do I want to tell others about the perfect mountain bike break with rides for all abilities, maybe not for selfish reasons, as this location would always be my first choice for our group work colleagues on MTB ride breaks.

The scenery is amazing and the lake is beautiful!

Do not change the park or it`s facilities at all PLEASE. It is lovely as it is. We are a retired couple and we took our teenage granddaughter with us. We had the least expensive accommodation and were more than happy with every thing. Enough to do for both ages in fact we could have stayed longer and not been bored (teenage speak!!)Thank you.

A beautiful spot, and not too busy.

Very clean accommodation, wonderful staff and a very tranquil area.

From the start of the holiday we were made to feel very welcome and the staff had plenty of knowledge and suggestions of where to go and what to do. Nothing seemed too much trouble for them and other holiday parks could certainly learn from this. Leaplish was the perfect setting for a relaxing short break in a wonderful scenic setting. Standard lodge was very modern, spacious and comfortable. Have recommended this to friends and family of all ages, couples and families with children. Will certainly come back again.

Fantastic location. The Lakeside Way is fantastic for cycling and can be accessed straight from your accommodation.

A beautiful location with good facilities on site, I would recommend this location to others.

The mountain biking was absolutely amazing. I booked our holiday for my husbands 40th birthday and because of the landscape and biking trails he would recommend the park to anyone interested in mountain biking. Our 7 year old loved it too.

The lodge was beautiful and is in a lovely setting looking down on the lake.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and we also found this in local pubs and shops. The holiday was extremely peaceful and relaxing!
