This family run well appointed luxury centrally heated timber lodge, with South facing decked area and hot tub, is set in a quiet location at the five star White Cross Bay Holiday Park, yet only a minute’s walk from all the amenities. While many people come here to enjoy the facilities of the lake, sailing, fishing and watersports, or a trip on the famous Windermere Steamers, there is a lot else to do.The most popular outdoor activity in the Lake District is fellwalking, but this is also good cycling country, both on and off-road.The nearby towns of Ambleside, Grasmere and Bowness offer a range of shops, pubs, cafés, restaurants and attractions. A little further afield are Keswick and Kendal and many peaceful villages.

White Cross Bay Holiday Park is beautifully maintained, and has been awarded a David Bellamy Gold award for its conservation efforts. Onsite there is a heated indoor swimming pool, sauna and fitness suite, a relaxing bar and a fully licensed restaurant. A takeaway service is also available if you prefer to eat in the comfort of your own accommodation. Laundry facilities and a well stocked shop and off license complete the indoor amenities.

Outdoor there is children's play area and tennis courts. Sailing and water sports enthusiasts can enjoy the marina at White Cross Bay which offers one of the best boat launching facilities on Lake Windermere. A stream meanders its way through the park encouraging ducks, swans and other wildlife. Within easy walking distance are the Low Wood Water Sports centre and the Lake District Visitor Centre at Brockhole. There is live entertainment most weekends in peak season..

The property is on a lovely site that has good facilities but isn’t too big. The property itself is very comfortable and immaculately kept. The hot tub is an absolute delight and made the holiday extra special for us. We have been to this property twice now and will definitely be coming back! Rating 5 out of 5, Lynne, Apr 2012.

We really enjoyed staying in Selamat lodge as it provided everything we needed for a relaxed holiday incl. hot tub, free-view, a great selection of films to choose from and comfy beds. The kitchen had all the equipment we needed and more. The lodge has a great location as a base for a mixture of fell walking and cosy town visits. It is situated on a lovely site with swimming pool, children's playground / swings, lakeside marina, pub and restaurant etc. Rating 4.5 out of 5, Tanja, Jul 2011.

The property was clean and spacious with all the facilities required. The lodge is very central to the Windermere area and is ideal as a base location to explore the Lake District. The site is quite and family orientated. Rating 5 out of 5, Ollie, Aug 2010.
