Welcome to Herdwick Cabin, our little plot of Lake District loveliness.
We are located on the fabulous White Cross Bay Holiday Park, which has its own private access to the shores of beautiful Lake Windermere.
Take a picnic down there or make the most of the Parks outdoor sports court and play area for children, its swimming pool with Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room and its amusement arcade, which you will find in the club house and bar, where you can treat yourself to breakfast, lunch or dinner if you do not feel like cooking and which often has evening entertainment as well as children's entertainment and activities during school holidays.
Take the woodland path to wander back to Herdwick Cabin, which is a home from home, ideal for families or groups of friends.
We can loan you a travel cot and high chair for free and re-configure our twin bedrooms to make you as comfortable possible.
We make your pet just as welcome too as you will see.
After your exploring, relax in Herdwick Cabins open-plan living area, which has a wide corner sofa at one end a large Smart TV so do not forget to connect your devices to the cabins router.
There is a dining table so you can share a sit down meal together and a fully equipped kitchen, which has a large gas oven and range, microwave, and fridge/freezer.
Why not enjoy a brew or glass of wine on the patio, which is equipped with wooden seating.
Take the cushions and throw out with you to ward off evening chills.
In the master bedroom, you will find a hairdryer.
The shower room and bathroom (toilet) are also conveniently separate to one another.
On your doorstep is the park shop.
For a bit more variety, there is a SPAR at the garage a right turn and short walk along the main road out of the Parks main entrance.
For something special, including local produce, head to Booths in Bowness.
If you are not from the area and you don't know Booths, you have to visit.
It is the Waitrose of the North and some!
You are spoilt for choice when it comes to local restaurants, cafes and pubs but check out the Queen's Head in Troutbeck and the cafe at Brockhole on Windermere, which is a fab place for families and a left turn and short walk along the main road from the Park main entrance.
Don't drive there as you are too near and parking is expensive but do not miss visiting.
Brockhole on Windermere offers boat and paddle board hire, kayak tours, mini golf, tree nets, tree trekking that ends with a great zip wire, an adventure playground and loads of other fun stuff.
You can make a day of it.
Just over the lake is the National Trust's Wray Castle, there is Hill Top, Beatrix Potter's quaint home plus The World of Beatrix Potter children's museum in Bowness.
You can pick up leaflets on a host of local attractions at the Park reception by the main entrance to its bar.
They also have bus timetables and as there are bus stops right outside the park?s main entrance, public transport is something you may want to consider to save on car park fees and to help the environment.
Talking of which, if you are a walker, Herdwick Cabin is ideally situated.
Go as if you are heading towards Brockhole and you'll spot a signed path on the opposite side of the road that you can take to walk to Troutbeck and Ambleside as a little extra to whatever expeditions you already have planned.
And should the weather make outdoor activities unsafe (or just too
unpleasant), your booking comes with complimentary entry to Choices Health Club, Troutbeck Bridge.
Just mention you're staying in Herdwick Cabin to enjoy a brilliantly equipped gym, choice of classes, a 15m level deck swimming pool and a relaxation zone with a roman sauna and fragranced steam
room.
You can also get beauty treatments there too but you have to pay for those!
So enjoy yourselves at Herdwick Cabin and don't be shy in letting us know if there is anything else we can help you with!
