    “Beautiful clean and inviting on arrival.”

    The description of it was vague. Please note that there is no shop or bars or anything on site unless you are willing to risk the traffic on A6. The beds are small and elderly larger people do not fit in them. You can't move beds to push together for safety. The suite in lounge area is uncomfortably low and after just two days we had decided to cut the holiday short. The insurance is next to useless..it doesn't cover much at all. You can't use your Netflix account as it won't take owners ...

    The description of it was vague. Please note that there is no shop or bars or anything on site unless you are willing to risk the traffic on A6. The beds are small and elderly larger people do not fit in them. You can't move beds to push together for safety. The suite in lounge area is uncomfortably low and after just two days we had decided to cut the holiday short. The insurance is next to useless..it doesn't cover much at all. You can't use your Netflix account as it won't take owners details off so you can put in your own. The site is not dog friendly as they are building more caravans on the only bit of woodland and have shut the road off with cones and the sound of lorries starts about 7.30 in morning. Please note if your dog gets out by mistake there is a pond and ducks .. very close. Had this been a child instead of my dog it would have been a disaster. Sykes did ask if we wanted to move but it was too late as the holiday was a total wash out by then.

    I’m glad you found everything inviting and clean when you arrived at our lodge. I realise that, as you said to me in private, you had booked the wrong place in error and before you arrived you didn’t really want to stay at our place. I did say to get in touch with Sykes and change your booking. I feel this issue has coloured your review. We have on site, with just a 5 minute walk from the lodge, a lovely bar and restaurant. They do get busy so it is advisable to book but this is definitely not across the A6. You will also find the gym and swimming pool here. The nearest shops are in Carnforth where you can find small local shops along with a Tesco, Booths and Aldi. The beds are the usual size for this type of accommodation. Regarding the Netflix account we never leave our account details on their as we don’t actually have an account so you should be able to log in to your own account. If you had contacted me during your stay I could have arranged for someone from the main office to call over and sort this issue out for you. The TV has full free view channels. The site is dog friendly as you can walk in the many grounds around the main lake as well as Borwick lakes. The lodge is fenced and gated so I’m not sure, unless the person staying left the gate open, how a dog would get out. There are ponds on site which attract wildlife but we have never had an issue with either our grandchild, visiting children or the dogs that have stayed. As I have already said, this was not the type of holiday or place for you or the people who were staying with you. I can only say that I wish you had changed the place you chose to stay as after speaking to Sykes I know this was an option for you. This then wouldn’t have been the negative review you have given us which has left us feeling very disappointed. Property Owner

The property

Perched on the popular South Lakeland Leisure Village site on the outskirts of Carnforth, Lancashire, is this wonderful lodge, 3 Yealands.

Enjoying a fantastic location within easy reach of the Lake District National Park, and benefitting from a wealth of on-site facilities, including an on-site bar and restaurant, heated indoor swimming pool, health and fitness centre, beauty spa, and activities including sailing and fishing, 3 Yealands is a fabulous pet-friendly choice for six.

Upon arrival, you will find off-road parking for two cars, along with a private decked area where you can bathe on the sun loungers or enjoy evenings dining alfresco.

Inside, you will be welcomed into a light and airy open-plan living space, where you can cook up a storm in the fully equipped kitchen, ready to enjoy your meal at the dining table for six over a bottle of wine.

After dinner, kick-back and relax on the plush seating in front of the electric fire, as your favourite show plays out on the wall-mounted TV.

Continue through to find a well-appointed bathroom, where you can indulge in a soak in the bath or freshen up under the overhead shower.

When sleep calls, three beautifully decorated bedrooms await, a double with TV and en-suite cloakroom, and two 2’6 twins.

If you can tear yourself away from your fantastic setting, head into Carnforth, where you can stock up on essentials at the convenience store, treat your loved ones to a meal at The Canal Turn and The County Lodge and Brasserie, take a dip in the Carnforth swimming pool, or visit the Carnforth Railway Heritage Centre, well-known for its appearance in the hit film, A Brief Encounter.

Next stop is Capernwray, where you can explore the waters depths at the Capernwray Diving Centre, hook your catch of the day at the nearby Clearwater Fisheries, soak up the views from the historic Gamekeeper’s Tower, or sample a sweet treat at The New England Tearoom and Shop.

Venture into the Lake District National Park, where you can visit the renowned town of Windermere, here you can try your hand at a variety of watersports on the famous lake, sample fresh seafood at Hooked, visit the charming World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, or hike up Queen Adelaide’s Hill to take in the exceptional views of the Langdale Pikes.

All this and more awaits at 3 Yealands.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
