“We all had a lovely week at the park.”

We picked a quiet week which suited us and we just had a good week doing nothing apart from watching our neighbouring rabbit coming out from under another lodge every day at 5 on the dot. I think the park has something for everyone of every age and our lodge was just right for us. On arrival the owner even left us a nice home made loaf. Tea and toast followed quickly.

Phil September 2024

“Had a 5 night stay in Birch Lodge, and wasn’t disappointed.”

The lodge was fully equipped, and immaculate. The double bed was very comfortable. A large TV, with a good choice of channels, and a strong WiFi signal. We used the cooking facilities, but if you prefer takeaways, or eating out, there was a lot around the site. We could tell upon arrival that the owners care for this lodge, and it’s a credit to the them..It is beautifully maintained. One negative…sorry, there isn’t one…looking forward to rebooking when the opportunity arises, thanks again..

- Phil, September 2024

Thanks so much Phil for your very kind words and I will certainly look forward to hosting you in the future . Carolyn Property Owner

“Beautiful lodge.”

Spotlessly clean with everything we needed for a great week.Homemade scones with jam and butter were a very nice surprise when we arrived. Lots of lovely little touches that made it feel very homely. Very comfortable beds with lovely quality bedding. Shower in the en suite was excellent. Lots of cleaning products was very useful. My only criticism would be that in the photos of the lodge it shows a washing machine, which would have been very useful, but there isn’t one there.

- Pauline, August 2024
Andy August 2024

“The lodge was really good, plenty of space, hosted direction to the lodge on a large/busy site was really helpful, great location and nice quiet site.”

The site included a gym, indoor swimming pool, restaurant and bar. The only let down was the really slow WiFi, almost pointless having Smart TVs.

- Andy, August 2024
Allison July 2024

“Absolutely home from home.”

Everything there for you. We asked for more towels and they were delivered immediately. Lovely location. The bed was so comfortabl. Pillows were so lovely, when I stripped the bed I tried to look at the make as I want them for home now

- Allison, July 2024

Thank you for your lovely feedback. It makes all the effort worth it when people take the time and effort to write a few kind words. Much appreciated. I’ll see if I can find the make of the bed and pillows. See you next time. Carolyn Property Owner

Arrived to a freshly home baked leaf with butter and jam. Lots of extras also. Had an issue with the WiFi. But was sorted in 10 minutes. Highly recommend staying here

Wayne March 2024

“Cracking property !”

Absolutely lovely owner ! We were met and taken to the lodge by the owner with everything we needed to know explained perfectly. There was a very yummy home baked loaf of bread (still warm) and jam there to meet us which we absolutely loved. The lodge itself is beautifully laid out and very tastefully decorated, with everywhere being extremely clean and tidy. Bed linen and towels of very good quality. We found South Lakeland Leisure Village a lovely place and enjoyed their bar and restaurant on a couple of occasions (with our dog) Birch Lodge was an excellent base to enjoy the Lancashire coastline and also the Lake District and then to return to relax in the evenings. Thank you for having us to stay, we enjoyed it immensely.

Mark September 2023

“5 star all the way for us.”

Lodge is perfectly located for the Lancashire coast and the south, mid Lake District. Lodge is absolutely spotless and the owner Carolyn has tried to think of just about everything to make your stay comfortable and stress free. We had a few mornings of torrential rain but the dvds and games kept us busy until the weather cleared. Would recommend and stay again

- Mark, September 2023

Thrilled you had a great time and enjoyed all that the lodge has to offer. Look forward to welcoming you back. Carolyn Property Owner
Paul September 2023

“The owner was there to meet us and left us with some lovely homemade bread too.”

The lodge was clean bright and airy and was like a home from home with everything we needed for our few days away. It's in a lovely quiet location and although the park is near the motorway we hardly noticed it. The front deck was southwest facing so it was nice to sit out at night. We would recommend this for a peaceful getaway and it's a great location for visiting Morecambe and the South Lakes area.

- Paul, September 2023

Thrilled you had a great time and enjoyed all that the lodge has to offer. Look forward to welcoming you back. Carolyn Property Owner
Mark August 2023

Melanie July 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Birch Lodge.”

Carolyn met us to hand over the keys and show us to the Lodge. It was very clean and had everything you could possibly need for a relaxing break. Lovely added touch of a homemade loaf and jam which we all thoroughly enjoyed. We really like the site too, not too busy, my son loved scootering around when we went out for walks with our dog and no need to book time slots for the pool which we prefer to be able to go as we choose. Would definitely recommend for a relaxing stay

- Melanie, July 2023

Thank you. You were a pleasure to host. Thank you for taking good care of my lodge Property Owner
Alan July 2023

“Absolutely stunning property in a beautiful location this property is a credit to its owners.”

We’ve never felt so at home in a holiday rental. Ideally situated to visit the lakes and other surrounding attractions. We would definitely return.

- Alan, July 2023

Thank you for your lovely review regarding your holiday. I’m so pleased you felt so at home. It was a shame about the weather but least you got to have a good relax. I could hardly tell you had spent a week in the lodge even with mad Meg! Property Owner

Maria May 2023

“What a wonderful lodge, owner met us on arrival and took us to the lodge.”

The lodge was lovely and clean and very well equipped. We were left with fresh home made bread, Jam and butter - it was delicious. The lodge is great location, with easy access to the Lakes or other local towns. You can hear traffic noise from motorway, but that did not bother us. The lodge is a sun trap, were graced with a full week of hot sun and blue skies . We would definitely book this lodge again .

- Maria, May 2023

Thank you for your kind comments. It gives me great pleasure to give my guests a wonderful stay Property Owner
Elaine April 2023

“We had an absolutely wonderful week at Birch Lodge.”

We were met by owner Carolyn with the keys at reception, and she showed us to the lodge, which is located on the far side of the site. Carolyn had kindly left us homemade bread, with jam & butter, and it was to die for. The lodge itself was spotless, beds were comfortable, and there was everything we could possibly need already provided. You can hear the noise of the traffic from the M6 (especially at night), however after the first night it didn't seem to bother us again. Facilities on the site were brilliant. The restaurant and bar was dog friendly, and the food there was lovely. The location of the site is ideal for lots of days out. We were sad to leave, and we will definitely book again in the future. Elaine, Sam, John & Cooper the shih tzu

- Elaine, April 2023

It was a pleasure to host you all. Lovely people going through a difficult time. You gave me great satisfaction in knowing I was able to give you a lovely week away. Welcome back anytime. Carolyn Property Owner
Kate October 2022

“We stayed at Birch Lodge for 2 weeks whilst having building work done to our house.”

The lodge is absolutely beautiful and has everything you could need. It was spotlessly clean on arrival and Carolyn was the perfect host. From freshly baked bread to milk in the fridge to blankets on the bed, Carolyn adds those extra touches to make your stay special. I would highly recommend a stay at Birch Lodge.

- Kate, October 2022
Simon October 2022

Judith October 2022

“Absolutely beautiful lodge in beautiful surroundings.”

Really lovely touches added to the furnishings made it feel very homely. Cleanliness at a very high standard. Carolyn the owner is the perfect host. She came out to meet us on arrival with a lovely loaf of homemade bread. We will definitely be back in 2023. Judith, James and Hamish the dog

Karen October 2022

“Wow what can I say.”

My sister and I stayed in Birch Lodge last week and what an amazing lodge. When I opened the door and walked in it was like home from home and very welcoming. The cleanliness was excellent, the finishing touches to were amazing from the bedroom, bathroom and living area. The ornaments and the throws made it look so good. The kitchen has every thing in that you could ask for from washing up liquid to every cleaning product you would would. Bathrooms both had shower gel even. Carolyn brought us home made bread and jam and it was to die for. The beds were very comfortable and bedding was lovely and clean. This is the 9th lodge I have stayed in on this holiday park and it was the best by far and you can tell that Carolyn takes pride in her Lodge. We will definitely book again it was amazing. Even though the weather wasn’t good. Excellent 5 star lodge. Thank you Karen and Sue xx

- Karen, October 2022

Wow. What can I say except a great big thank you. You were lovely guests and would be welcome back anytime. It gives me great pleasure to provide a happy holiday Property Owner
Andy September 2022

“Our stay at birch lodge was brilliant.”

We were greeted by Carolyn the owner who had left warm homemade bread and homemade jam. The lodge was perfect, clean, tidy, well furnished and well situated to explore the surrounding areas. It is based on a secure site with a fob entry key to access the lodges which surround the lake. Plenty of on-site amenities if you wish to use them. It was a pleasure to return each evening and we would definitely recommend this lodge as a home from home. Thank you.

- Andy, September 2022

So pleased Andy you and your lovely wife had a brilliant week. You were a pleasure to host. Thank you so much for your lovely review Property Owner

Anthony August 2022

“This lodge was perfect!”

Everything was first class. Really clean and really comfy. We was met by Carolyn and shown to the lodge. We had home made bread and jam waiting, to save you rushing to the shops after a long journey. Nice touch! Carolyn thought about everything from toiletries to little bits in the kitchen. The location was perfect for exploring the Lakes and the Dales, plus the local area. The site has a lake where you can use SUP's and kayaks. It was for us ideal. There are facilities onsite like a pub, restaurant and leisure club with pool and gym but we never used them. Yes you can hear a bit of road noise but that did not bother us, we were always able to sleep and enjoy the decking. Carolyn takes really pride in what she does which helped to make this holiday experience excellent. Thank you.

- Anthony, August 2022

Thank you so much for taking the time to articulate such a lovely review. It really makes my efforts feel so worthwhile to give my guests a great holiday experience. And thank you for taking such good care of my lodge. Carolyn Property Owner
Brian August 2022

“Lovely place to stay certainly recommended because of the very hot weather there wasn’t a fan maybe have one in there when needed.”

William July 2022

“Had a wonderful short holiday here.”

The lodge was as described and more besides. It was immaculate and very well equipped, we were short of nothing. It is a credit to the owner Carolyn. We would not hesitate to book it again.

- William, July 2022

Thank you so much for your kind comments. It’s a shame you couldn’t have enjoyed the extra night. It was a pleasure to host you both and the whippets of course. Take care. Carolyn Property Owner
David July 2022

“Excellent holiday lodge, clean and well equipped.”

Really nice touch of home baked bread and jam made the stay really special. The owner Carolyn was also there to escort us to the lodge when we arrived and also popped in towards the end of the stay to check if everything was alright. We thoroughly recommend this accommodation, it's I'd the best of its kind we have stayed in to date and would have no hesitation to return in the future. Made our holiday that extra bit special, thank you Carolyn!

- David, July 2022

It’s people like you two that make all the hard work worth it. Holidays are a special time so I try give all my guests the best I can. Thank you both so much and for the card and chocs Property Owner

Lady April 2022

“I booked the day before because i was struggling to find a last minute booking for bank holiday and luckily sykes cottages were available.”

I was sent all the necessary information including the areas of interest around the place. I was given all the contact numbers for the owners and the company if in case i have any queries. When arrived the owner was already there waiting for us and she had gone an extra mile and provided breakfast items which she did not have to do. The place itself was very neat and clean and just what we needed. All the necessities were there .There were two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms which was great even though we did not need the 2nd bedroom. There were many other cottages nearby but it was still nice and peaceful. A big than you to the owner. We will definitely go back and i have already recommended it to my colleagues and family
