New Year away

Finding the property was easy from the information we were provided. The lodge was warm and cozy, just what we needed with the weather being so bad. The wine cooler was excellent! Just what we needed for New Year's Eve celebrations. The beds were very comfortable.

Fabulous Lodge

Super clean, very well equipped, comfortable and spacious lodge in one of the quieter areas of the park. Comfortable beds and lovely shower rooms. We had one slight problem on out first day but sorted by the host in less than half an hour. Couldn't fault the lodge and surroundings - the only down-side of our week was the internet that kept dipping out which was a bit annoying but, all in all, a super stay.

Fantastic

We are just home from Sunny Bank lodge. All I can say is it was perfect. Decorated to a high standard and everything you need is there. Louise was brilliant and it’s a credit to her. She is very good at communicating quickly so you’re not waiting long for any queries to be answered. Its location is about 2 min walk from the reception/pub/ shop/ play area and swimming pool so you’re not going to get lost. The introductions given were easy to follow when checking in so there will be no problems. Sadly we had rain almost every day but we still got out and about and the site is a few miles drive to Windermere where there is lots to do for all ages. The decking area loops round the lodge so you’d be getting the sun most of the day (if you’re lucky with the weather) and there are three different seating areas to relax in. Highly recommend a stay here and you will not regret it. We will certainly be back and we traveled from Northern Ireland. Worth the 12 hour round trip!!

Lovely lodge stay in Windermere!

A beautiful lodge that was very clean and in a gorgeous setting. I was worried the lodge would be small for seven of us but the sofa and living area was very spacious and there was plenty of room. The addition of an en-suite in every bedroom was also lovely! Would definitely stay here again!

Fabulous week in Windermere!

We had a great stay here. Fantastic location, the lodge was great for all ages. It is pretty big & has a great outdoor area too. Really relaxing and quiet on the holiday park also. We ended up using the pool which is on site which was great, you can book it in hourly slots at reception. Also used the courts & the park which was great for a 1 year old and 9 year old. This place would also be great for just adults too! Close to walk to the boats & close drive to Windermere & Ambleside. We also left two stuffed animals which Louise was very happy to post back to us! All round great trip. Thanks!

Absolutely Idyllic stay

Couldn't have asked for a better venue to treat my Mum to a surprise holiday. The lodge was impeccably decorated and set up for our stay. The location was perfect, managed to get out from the park straight onto the water with our kayak. The park is also only a short car ride to Ambleside and Bowness on Windemere. Louise our host could not have been more accommodating. Would definitely visit again!

About the host

Hosted by Louise Banks

Host profile image
I live in north of England with my husband and 2 teenage children. We both work and enjoy holidaying whenever we can either abroad or in this country. With owning Sunny Bank Lodge it means we can get away at short notice and enjoy the many attractions that the beautiful Lake District has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We decided to buy this lodge on White Cross Bay as we live in the Lake District but never holiday in the area. Now with having Sunny Bank Lodge when it's not let out we can just jump in the car and be there within 20 minutes to enjoy the peace and tranquillity that the lodge has to offer as well as having the Lake District literally on the door step.

What makes this property unique

White Cross Bay holiday Park is nestled between Windermere and Ambleside and only 2 miles away from Windermere train station. When arriving at White Cross Bay you will be greeted by the friendly staff at reception where they will hand you the keys to Sunny Bank Lodge, give you a map of the holiday park and where the lodge is on site. When approaching the lodge you will see there is plenty of parking for upto 3/4 vehicles, with a large decking area with plenty of seating for those alfresco evenings. The lodge will have been fully cleaned with fresh linen and towels provided. On site there is a bar, restaurant small shop, arcade and leisure facilities which includes gym, pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. (Leisure passes can be bought at reception if required at a cost of £15 for up to 7 nights for your whole party for the duration of your break).
