After a few booking issues, we had the most amazing celebration with our family and friends. The house was perfect with plenty of fun things to do with games rooms. Hot tub and sauna were an added bonus. Breakfast delivered from the cafe over the way was a bonus. The house was well equipped and had everything in the kitchen you needed for a large gathering to be catered for. A very special occasion, thank you.
Lovely stay, lovely place. Thank you x
Lovely house and we had lovely family time . . 24 of us .The house was clean and comfortable. However ! The 1000 bond we had to pay the owner has been unreturned . The temperature outside was 9c . Lifting the top off of the hot tub the brittle hinges snapped . My husband reported this immediately. Since returning home the owner has informed us that he will be keeping 855 of our bond stating that the hot tub also needed a new cover . The picture he sent us was of a weathered , perished vinyl cover which happens over months not during a weekend . We have said that we are willing to pay for the hinges but not the cover . Sykes dont want to know which l find appalling. Weve been told by Sykes that if we want any money back then go through a dispute via a small claims court . On reading previous reviews on Google and Trip Advisor , it becomes apparent that this is a common trait of the owner retaining bonds ! BEWARE IF ANYONE ELSE BOOKS IN FUTURE AS YOU ARE AT RISK OF GETTING RIPPED OFF ! Its not on and these landlords should not be getting away with it !
We had an amazing family Christmas with everyone from 2 to 68 yrs entertained throughout. Along with the facilities provided this also included trips to buy items to prepare food for 18 hungry mouths, despite having brought extra cooking equipment with us. It was also obvious that the main clientele are hen and stag parties by the number of pint and champagne glasses and lack of basic family glasses. Teapots were a pleasant surprise. The hot tub and sauna were particularly well used along with the pool table. The ability to find a quiet space in the very comfortable drawing room was an wonderful treat for the older members of the family.

This was a beautiful warm large comfy house . Great for large groups with the bar, games and space and we did on the whole have lots of fun . The owner was lovely and contactable but only after paying full amount and whilst in the property. However , I cannot say the same for Sykes who did not return any of my calls or emails when I had pre concerns about the configurations of the rooms. I would have changed to a larger house if I could have but they would not reply or help until it was too late ! I add I tried from August until November We had 12 couples and I needed 12 doubles . 1 of the rooms was a childs room off the family double sharing a bathroom and not big enough for adults so 2 of my guests had to sleep on sofas which marred the experience a little. The hot tub did not work and we had to borrow extra cutlery from the adjoining garden center but these are minor things and I would certainly return if they were rectified although not with 12 couples and not through Sykes sykes, if you are reading this please check your complaints emails , WhatsApps and telephone chats as well. One man I eventually spoke to did promise verbally to look into my concerns and reply to me before I paid the balance but he never did . I did eventually get 1 email once it was too late to cancel stating that there were 13 doubles and no one would have to share but this information was in correct . A reply would at least be curtious .
Our Ellie's Lodge review: Had a great time celebrating my wifes 60th with our family. So spacious, and had everything we needed. The bar was good fun and the big WiFi speaker was a bonus. Living spaces and kitchen were amazing. Jacuzzi, sauna and table tennis room were all put to good use. Bedrooms were superb. Pool table needs a bit TLC. The owner was contactable and replied to a question i had strsight away. Overall all, a fantastic place to stay and great fun was had by all.

The cottage was fabulous, plenty of space, the bedrooms were amazing. What made it really fun was the barpool table area which is ideal for big parties, fridges and speaker really great and plenty of seating. Be mindful that it is opposite to a Garden centre but not secure around the back and absolutely take before and after photos of everything inside and out, especially the hot tub, as we were asked to pay for damage to the hot tub, which we were able to prove we did not do and which was accepted by the owner. Would still definitely recommend it as a great venue for family and friends.
We had a fantastic stay at Ellies lodge for our first visit of the Lake District. The house is in Ulverston and has a vey close Aldi and M&S in case you need it. The town is not too far too. The rooms look exactly like the pictures and we loved the hot tub, sauna and the games room. We initially could not figure out the heating and wifi password but that was later resolved. Overall it was great and would stay here again.

We've just returned from Ellies Lodge after a 3 night stay, for our daughters 40th birthday. This property is amazing everyone really enjoyed it, plenty of room for everyone to be together or a quiet lounge if you wanted to just sit & chat! We had a couple of issues which were sorted immediately so no complaints at all! Facilities were well thought out, we could eat in easily as kitchen well provided with all you need! Thank you for helping to make this a weekend to remember!
Ellies Lodge is an excellent accommodation for larger groups, all of the bedrooms are clean and comfortable and have en suite facilities. The house is huge and had more than enough space for us, we spent most of our time in the bar area. Checkin was very smooth and the owner communicated with me on the arrival day with lots of useful information the cafe in the adjoining garden centre was excellent for breakfasts. 10 minutes walk from the town and costs 4 for a taxi back, great location and nice and quiet on the evening. I would definitely recommend it and would happily return in the future.
