About this property

Discover this beautifully-appointed lodge amidst White Cross Bay Holiday Park, within striking distance of Lake Windermere and the endearing village of Troutbeck Bridge. This single-storey accommodation enjoys a pretty woodland setting, making a lovely natural environment for a family holiday to this part of the Lake District, renowned for its outdoor pursuits. At the end of a bracing day, find the open-plan living, which boasts a classic country-style house design, as well as everything you could possibly need to enjoy a self-catering stay. The kitchen comes well-equipped with an electric oven, gas hob, microwave and fridge/freezer, perfect for catering home-cooked dishes, as well as the added benefit of a dishwasher to keep the space clutter free for the chef of the group! Concluding the open-plan space is the sociable dining area and a sitting area, where plush sofas invite you to tune into the TV and relish in the warmth of the electric fire, bliss! During the balmy evenings, be sure to throw open the French doors and enjoy the company of your loved ones on the private decking, where table and chairs offer an alternative spot for summer dining. Heading back inside, find your sleeping spots to catch some well-deserved rest, choosing between the master double bedroom with an en-suite shower and two twin bedrooms, which are served by the sleek family shower room. Note: Some facilities on the park are subject to extra cost such as use of the pool, entertainment, bar and restaurant. When you want a night off the cooking, be sure to venture into Troutbeck Bridge, where you will find an exceptional pub serving food, as well as a shop for picking up any last minute essentials. Whilst here, be sure to meander over to the adjacent Lake Windermere, famously the largest natural lake in England, where you can try your hand at a range of watersports, including sailing, kayaking, canoeing before grabbing a bite to eat at one of the many waterside eateries.
