Me and my family had a lovely stay at this lodge, it was very cosy with beautiful views in a lovely quiet spot. Id recommend to anyone who loves the lakes. Keswick is nearby with beautif derwent water and Dodd wood has a walk where you can reach the summit and get a great panoramic view of surrounding lakes. A lovely place.

Wonderful place to stay. Place was comfortable and well stocked with what you need. Ideal both as a base for exploring the Lake District or as a place to relax and hang out for a few days. Very peaceful setting. Best place we stayed at on our travels in England.

Had a really nice time here, everything from the lodge to the area.It had a good layout and was very nice and clean, with plenty of storage, and hooks for coats and stand for shoes. Also had its own parking space. The lodge park was also very quiet and peaceful.I had a few questions before our visit and the host always got back to us quickly.A really good location, not far from nearby walks and Keswick town, both by car.Would definitely stay here again if visiting Keswick and would highly recommend!

Beautiful lodge in a stunning location!

The lodge was absolutely perfect for our long weekend. It was super spacious, 2 bathrooms was great and the fact that we had the lake not even a 1 min walk away was lovely. Would definitely stay here again and perfect distance to some amazing nearby hikes (our favourite of the weekend was Haystacks)!

Bassenthwaite Rydal Lodge

The whole process of booking, payment, communications, and the location was simple and straightforward. The lodge was exceptionally clean and was in a great position. We stayed for 5 nights and toured around the lake district and found the location to be ideal for easy access to Keswick and beyond. Would definitely recommend to others.

Love the Lakes

A lovely 3 night stay on Bassenthwaite Lake. Lodge was well appointed and as described in the listing. Location is remote but only 10min drive to Keswick and exactly what we wanted. Recommend The Sun Inn in Bassenthwaite for dinner and even managed a quick paddle board on (thankfully not in) an empty Lake, which was bliss. Will definitely consider staying here again.
