The Croft is the exception and I have been here with the family for the last 3 years. The Croft lodges are exceptional, they are perfectly equipped, spacious enough and have the added benefit of a hot tub. If you spend your days on the fells on swimming in the lakes you will definitely appreciate the luxury of a hot tub to come back to and a nice deck to sit out on. Dogs are welcome in most of the lodges and there is plenty of green space between each one to give privacy. The site itself is right next to the village with pubs and well equipped Coop. Hawkshead is a convenient location for the south lakes and there is a good bus service to Ambleside, Coniston and beyond. There are plenty of walks on the doorstep for days when you want something less challenging. 30 years ago I was camping in the adjacent Croft campsite which also appears to be of a high standard. These lodges may not be cheap but they are perfect for a summer holiday or winter break (the log burner will keep you cosy). - <span style=\"color: #717c3e;\">Craig<\/span><!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\" ><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div class=\"ti-review-item source-Testimonials ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-platform-page-url=\"\" data-time=\"\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\" data-rating=\"5\" data-max-rating=\"5\" > <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\">  <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/default-avatar\/noprofile-06.svg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/default-avatar\/noprofile-06.svg 2x\" alt=\" profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\">  <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\">17.
