We spent our honeymoon in cabin 12 which was perfect as this particular cabin was situated on the very end of the 'site' so every morning we could wake up and look out at our own personal view of the beautiful surroundings and not have any other cabins in view!

This is our second stay at Hartsop Fold and agree with everyone elses recommendations. If you love peace and quiet and want an ideal base for walking Hartsop Fold is a must. Sitting on the verandah drinking coffee or a glass of wine, reading and watching the birds was wonderful. The management make the holiday easy with no problems in... More

You won't need to use the car once you arrive. These lodges are situated between 2 fabulous ranges that offer many beautiful walks, and about a mile from the Patterdale end of Ulswater.

We found the power shower excellent and hot and there were 6... More

If you're looking for a secluded, relaxing and value-for-money place to stay in the Lakes, you could do much worse than Hartsop Fold (Google it for contact info). There's about ten Scandinavian-style lodges nestling by a stream at the base of the fells, with great views down the valley towards Ullswater. It a very secluded, peaceful and beautiful location, south... More
