Description

Located on Skiddaw View Holiday Park which is to the North of Keswick this small family run park offers a beautiful location from which to enjoy your holiday. The park offers shop, laundry facilities, excellent children’s play area, WiFi around the park. The animal park is also a big attraction for young and old with our Jacob sheep and Alpaca - Fidel.

The Dobby Lodges are fantastic architect designed lodges breaking all the rules of holiday lodge design. Contemporary design features such as floor to ceiling windows, oak flooring and cedar wood exterior shape the unique nature of this property.

Taking inspiration from nature, the Dobby Lodges have been styled with natural grey colours flowing throughout, woodland touches and red statement furnishings adding to the contemporary feel of the lodges.

The open plan living area is well designed with a red ‘L’ shaped sofa facing the cosy wood burner and wall mounted digital TV. The living area also benefits from a DVD player and a Bluetooth sound system.

The dining kitchen area has seating for four and is fully fitted with gas hob, oven and grill with extractor fan, toaster, kettle and a stylish fridge/freezer and microwave.

The comfortable bedrooms boast uniquely designed bedside tables complete with contemporary light fittings, and built in wardrobes.

The tiled bathroom is complete with quality fittings including a fantastic "drench" shower over the bath.

These lodges provide a built-in deck area which capturers the afternoon sun.

There are three lodges of this type located in a quiet area of the park known historically as "Dobby Quarry".
