Completely renovated in September 2009, North Lodge is an exclusive holiday cottage set in the heart of the Lake District, with Windermere centre a 10 minute walk away. This spacious traditional cottage stands in a peaceful hamlet and it is an ideal retreat for individuals or families wishing to 'get away from it all' with its enviable secluded position. There are also a wealth of modern features and quality internal furnishings for those who are looking for greater comfort and entertainment. Wonderful walks begin from the doorstep, such as to Orrest Head, a high point affording spectacular views over Lake Windermere. A wide range of sports, including water sports as well as shops and restaurants are available at Windermere and nearby Bowness. All the other main attractions and locations in the Lake District are no more than a half hour drive away, and the popular Ambleside and Staveley are in easy walking distance. To take a virtual tour of the house and area, please send an enquiry.

Congratulations. A superb transformation from the cottage that we viewed on the internet earlier in the year. We have thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and the weather has been very kind and the cottage extremely comfortable. Please let us know where we may book it in the future.
December 2009 - Michael, Daniel, Margaret, Alan, Laura & James - Firth House
Arrived on Christmas Eve in thick snow. A perfect white Christmas at North Lodge. The house and the setting is perfect, love all of the new furnishings. We will definitely be back.
