Duckling Lodge Reviews

Lisa - Feb 2026
Beautiful, we had an amazing stay Lodge just perfect and well equipped Fresh ... Beautiful, we had an amazing stay Lodge just perfect and well equipped Fresh & clean Hot tub was a great addition Restaurant really lovely food & service Gas run out, rang reception & the maintenance man came straight away Disappointed we couldnt access the gym and pool as it was closed just one of those things Lancaster & Morecambe nearby Would definitely book again
Linda - Feb 2026
Sofas and bed not comfortable. The bottom of the oven rusty. Toilet seats move when using the toilet. No steps for the hot tub. No torch in boiler cupboard although it says there is. Tried to contact the owners via WhatsApp but didn't get a response. Obviously everyone carries steps around for a hot tub even though they don't have one. I also asked at reception and they said it would be a health and safety issue. I don't know how the owners expect guests to get in and out of the hot tub without the steps. Will not be returning. Booked because of hot tub but couldn't use it. No water on Sunday evening.
Michelle - Jan 2026
Lovely site, very quiet and everyone friendly. I looked at the reviews and even sent an email regarding some issues with the property reviews to make sure they were rectified before we stayed. I had no reply. Fan on oven doesnt work took double time to cook Washing machineerror code kept coming up. Took clothes out and they were COVERED in dog hair someone thought to wash their dogs bedding?. Had no water in the kitchen in the mornings because of frozen pipes, thawed during the day. Knob on curtain rail fell off and banged me on the head whilst I was sat watching tv. Few chipped glasses also only one plastic one Tin opener dont work No scissors Tired utensils
Daniel - Dec 2025
Couldnt really fault the property. Upon arrival it was clean and as described on the advert. Was a nice touch having a bottle of Prosecco and other essential items waiting for us. There was a couple of issues we had come across during our stay. The oven fan seems to not work. Which isnt helpful if you do require to use the oven to cook. The decking area was a little tired and run down. There was one panel near the hot tub which was broken which isnt ideal if you have smaller dogs that could escape through it. The outdoor furniture looked tired and broken in places. Luckily we didnt need to use this. But in the summer I would imagine guests would like to use those facilities. We arrived late whilst it was dark and the area was pitch black with no lighting. It would have been helpful if an outside light was left on or a solar powered light was there to make it easier to find the key code box. Other than that it was an enjoyable stay and was fit for our purpose. Facilities on site looked nice. Receptionist didnt seem very helpful. And the meal times in the on sight restaurant were questionable. You couldnt have an evening meal there on a Sunday as they stop serving at 4. Also there is no where near by that you could visit without a drive.
Wendy - Dec 2025
We had a lovely Christmas holiday. Perfect location lots of great walks for the dog. The cabin was decorated for Christmas and a lovely gift left for us, didnt expect that so it was a really nice surprise. The on site Restaurant and pub was very welcoming and dog friendly which was great. I would definitely love le to return to the lodge Thankyou for a great place to stay x
Tom - Nov 2025
This is 2nd time coming to this lodge, as we came to years ago. And it's spot on for us, can't fault it. Plus lots to do on surrounding area Thank you
Alison - Nov 2025
Beautiful lodge, very clean and well equipped. Hot tub was fantastic and the swimming pool was well worth paying to use. Ideally located for exploring South Cumbria and Morecambe Bay, just wished we'd been able to stay for more than 4 nights. The only slight issue we had was that, despite being electric, the oven was not great. It didn't seem to reach temperature and the heat was uneven. Fortunately we had a meal that this didn't affect but I decided not to risk cooking the chicken I'd bought for the next day. Otherwise absolutely no issues and highly recommended. Hopefully we'll be able to go back in future and enjoy another stay.
Alex - Oct 2025
The lodge was lovely. Everything you needed was in there. The bottle of wine was a lovely touch and we were grateful for the milk. Dishwasher and washerdryer was a welcome surprise. Didn't have the weather on our side but still managed to get in the hot tub, which was great. Will definitely be booking again. We were a family of 2 adults and one teenage boy and a cockerpoo.
Michael - Aug 2025
We had an enjoyable stay, however just a few niggles, the fan on the oven does not work, the tv in the bedroom does not work, no mop and bucket, we had to clean the floor on hands and knees, outdoor furniture could do with replacing as the sofa was broken, and definitely needs a parasol as the weather was hot and sunny but we had no shade. we ended up sitting under a golf umbrella. The shower head was tied up with an elastic band.... which snapped !,just trivial things which do need addressing. We would stay again if the said items were fixed.
Christopher - Aug 2025
Everything about the lodge was fantastic, very clean and well maintained. My only complaint would be with pure leisure for allowing the fishing ponds to degrade, such a shame as I have fished there before and had amazing experiences.
e - Jul 2025
Really enjoyed our stay at the lodge, Malva who came to service the hot tub was very friendly, pleasant and checked we were happy with everything, great service !
Sandra - Jun 2025
We had a great stay at Duckling Lodge. The lodge was clean on arrival and we did not have any issues The male receptionist was very helpful when checking in. We all enjoyed the hot tub after a day out. We visited Old School Brewery a quirky place that does excellent food and drink that is a 2 minute drive a way. We would stay here again. Thank you.
Linda - Jun 2025
Clean and comfortable.
Pamela - Jun 2025
On arrival lodge looked nice, I was looking forward to a soak in the bath, however there was no plug, not a great start! . I had to go out & purchase a plug left for the next person. Fan oven, the fan doesn't work so things take ages to cook also no oven proof dishes or trays to use. Blind in bedroom no rod for opening. Television in bedroom wouldn't work just came up with no signal. Finally on checking the mattress in main bedroom it is heavily stained and not nice needs replacing. The site was nice, hot tub did get over hot sometimes & we had to wait for temp to go down. Wine & biscuits was a nice touch, but would of preferred a plug for bath.
Katrina - May 2025
Just returned from 3 nights in this wonderful lodge we did not want to leave! The lodge had everything you need and more! The little touches of wine, biscuits, tea, coffee etc were lovely! Our cleaner was lovely so sorry I didnt get your name she was so friendly and did a wonderful job. We will most definitely be booking again. Thank you to the owner too, I did want to leave a note for you but didnt have a notepad, your lodge is perfect we enjoyed every minute.
Katie - Apr 2025
Great lodge, and great location. Very clean. Upon arriving I arrived at reception, asking for directions to the lodge the man at the desk was extremely rude and unhelpful. He said as it has been booked through a third party he cant help with any questions. I also asked for a map which he said there isnt one apart from the big one on the side of the reception building. We also tried using the oven on one night but could not get it to work! I think the fan may be broken.
Alexander - Mar 2025
Pros loving touch wine and biscuits, hot tub amazing , very peaceful, great for dogs being fenced in, lots of space between lodges , great location to visit other places I. E Morecambe great having 2 bathrooms . Cons fan assistant oven didnt work making cooking times so long, didnt leave bin liners , needed more oven proof dishes had to go to Tesco and buy one, measuring jug, maybe even a cloths horse also mark the switches on the wall as turned off and after an hour opened the fridge door and thought it wasnt working, then I pushed all the switches and it came back on , little hover great, but wasnt empty on our arrival, the mop was so dirty , and under furniture was dirty found an old dog treat and not ours . And one more thing , need a hook to hold open the patio door as when the wind got up, it shut with a force which could harm someone especially a child . Would I return Definitely yes , thanks
Dianne - Mar 2025
This is a lovely lodge and we really enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately we did have a few problems with the hot tub but the owner Jacqueline was very helpful and did all she could. Think it may be a slight problem for some on arrival having to walk to the lodge from reception to collect the keys in order to be able to lift the barrier but wasn't a problem for us and it was a lovely sunny day. Would definitely stay there again and would recommend
Sean - Dec 2024
I really enjoyed the stay. We had an amazing time. Nice and chilled and the property was perfect for us.

Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction.  With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun.  You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money.  There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.
Happy Mount Park - LA4 5AQ
about 5 Miles
Happy Mount Park has attractions for the whole family including several play areas, a miniature railway, crazy golf, putting green and trampolines, there is also a paddling pool where the little ones can splash around in the summer and a café where the adults can relax with a drink. During the summer months and especially during school holidays live music can often be enjoyed.
South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 16 Miles

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals.  Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area.  Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos.  At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed.  Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 18 Miles
Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 23 Miles
Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 29 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.
