  My family and I stayed in South Lodge over Christmas 2022.

  We had been looking for a holiday home which had room for 6 adults and a child but most importantly had ground floor accommodation for my mum who has poor mobility. South Lodge was the perfect place for us. The lodge itself is situated a short walk from the town centre and has private parking (we had 3 cars) which is accessed through a gate. All the rooms are bright and spacious, many with views to the castle grounds next door (including the local rabbits). As this is an older building with sash windows, we sometimes found the living room a bit colder but the gas fire soon took the chill off. The kitchen is a good size and has everything needed for our stay (we were cooking Christmas dinner here) and is well-equipped. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at South Lodge and can recommend it to anyone looking for a private home to spend time in lovely Appleby.

  The lodge is fab, great location too.

  Woodland walk on the doorstep, 10 minute walk into the village. Village is small but has all you need and recommend visiting the butchers and the bakers, our son also loved the sweetie shop. The pizza shop is also good. Plenty of space in the lodge and very comfortable. Downside was no washing machine, which would have been good to have access to given we were there 5 days and the weather was temperamental so could have done with washing some clothes. A not cobwebby in places but not dirty. Could also recommend the owners put some hooks on the back of doors for hanging towels etc once used. Overall a really good stay!

  Full of cobwebs and could do with a deep clean.

  Groundsperson for castle very rude. Owner of castle told us she is in dispute with the owners of the lodge as it should not be rented out and wouldn’t allow us on the castle grounds but would have if we rented one of her cottages. Having said that it was a lovely lodge and when the heating went off the caretaker came straightaway and was very nice. Felt we should not have been in between any dispute

  Beautiful accommodation in a gorgeous setting Unfortunately building works are still ongoing so there is machinery, fences, skips etc.

  around - the noise was minimal from this but it still meant there were workmen on site etc. No freezer in the fridge (usually a small one at the top) - we’d bought frozen goods with us which we had to dispose of Bed was comfiest bed I’ve ever slept in - bath etc. was amazing Huge spiders though with being so rural! x

  An exceptional property for a lovely stay in Cumbria/The Lake District.

  Modern, top spec, immaculately clean. The most comfortable sofa and bed after a long day of walking. So much space and beautiful surroundings. Can’t recommend highly enough. We absolutely loved our stay and will be back again. Our dog also loved it
