Beech Reviews

Quiet and peaceful 4 night stay, clean warm and well equipped eco lodge
Cosy lodge with beautiful scenery. Relaxing hottub. We stayed for 6 nights and enjoyed our stay. Great location for day trips out to surrounding villages and walks. Would recommend.
Melissa
I probably won't say any different to every other review. The Beech pod was spotlessly clean in a beautiful location. The hot tub was checked every day by the owners who were also on hand for information on walks and ideas to do things locally. My grand daughter picked the pod, and although I'm a cottage fan, she loved it and didn't want to leave. We had some friends visit, and they're looking to book one of the pods as they were impressed by them. We all said the experience would be amazing with a snowy backdrop.
Nathan
An excellent property in a great location. The owners were extremely helpful and friendly. Definitely somewhere to return to!
2nd time here looking forward to our 3rd,thank you to Ian & Carol & team for a brilliant 5 nights absolutely fantastic area to visit lots to do. A short walk into town great place to eat out recommend Rose & Crown & The Farmers . Absolutely spotless pod inside & out great hottub especially for stargazing.

The pod and facilities were amazing very cozy And everything you need The views were great The only thing i would say is the hot tub needed to be a little more private as we could see our neighbours But we would stay here again
We would definitely recommend, great accommodation in a great area, easy access for all of the lakes. The hot tub was a relaxing treat after lots of walking. The owner was lovely too, recommending local walks which we didn't do as we had already planned where we were going. We will definitely go back and include the recommended walks.
Amazing Lovely location very peaceful and scenic. Me and my partner went for 2 nights and it was the most loveliest time we were hosted amazingly and the doggies were so cute and friendly always wanting some love, so if you are a dog person definitely recommend. And the hotub was so hot lovely at night overall 100 recommend. a place i definitely want to go back too
Very clean and tidy and the host was lovely. Hot tub is good and has a nice view into the fields, would recommend.
Nathan
Me and my partner stayed at the Beech cabin. It was super clean and well maintained. The scenery is beautiful from the cabin which looks onto the hills. The hot tub was amazing. No faults whatsoever and well be going again for again for sure. The location is perfect as youre close to a lovely town and it only takes 20 minutes to get to Windermere Lake. The host was very welcoming and gave us information on local landmarks and things to do while we were there.
Natasha
We had the best break at Low Flan Farm Retreat. I never wanted to leave. The cabins are roomy and comfortable, had great amenities and were so clean!! Carol and Ian are so helpful and lovely, made us feel right at home. The local town is lovely too. They shared their knowledge about walks, animals, farming, and we loved seeing their beautiful animals. The hot tub was an amazing addition, and it is cleaned every day. The local town is lovely and has everything you need. I felt so relaxed by the end of our trip, and the retreat holds a special place in our hearts, we will be booking again and Ive already told all my family and friends about it!
Rhiannon
Fantastic place, welcoming host, couldnt have done anymore.
Rosemary
We stayed at the Beech for 5 nights. From the day we arrived, Carol has been super helpful and friendly to us. The pod was clean and nicely decorated. It also had all the required utensils in the kitchen. The hot tub is checked by Carol and her team on a daily basis and they kept it nice and clean for us. There are other pods nearby so we didnt feel too isolated but at the same time there was enough privacy to enjoy our trip without worrying about people noticing. The Ulverston town itself is a few minutes drive and Windermere was 40 minutes drive from the pod. Overall, a lovely stay there and would definitely recommend if you like a cozy holiday without the noise of traffic.
Deborah
A very neat and tidy location which is mirrored inside the glamping pod and on the little private patio. The view from the Hot Tub from any of the corner seats is beautiful and serene. The location, within walking distance of Ulverston, means that you dont need to jump in a car if you dont want to as there are shops , cafes and bars and walks on your door step. A fantastic option for an outdoor, peaceful , comfortable break
Shezan
Amazing location great for a getaway
Really lovely stay everything was clean and maintained to a very high order. The only issue I would say if at all would be there was no hand soap in the bathroom. However everything else was amazing. Highly recommend
Lovely little cabin. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the owners very nice, especially when giving us guidance of places around to go on walks and things to see. Short walk away from shops and places to grab a bite to eat and a short drive to many different attractions. Water pressure in the bathroom sink could do with a little look but other than that a stunning cosy place to stay would definitely recommend.
Matthew
I had an excellent stay at Beech in Ulverston. The accommodation is in a fantastic location with all the facilities needed for a short stay. The hot tub was the perfect reward after a long day of walking in the fells with great views across the hills. Im sure the outside seating area would be wonderful when the weather is more forgiving but the Pod is comfortable and plenty warm and cozy when its windy and wet outside. The cooking facilities were adequate for a few simple home cooked meals and a generously sized fridge is provided for all your fresh supplies. There were some great modern touches like a heated towel rail, USB charge points and fast WIFI. I was travelling on my own but I think two people could be just as comfortable without getting in each others way. If I could have two wishes it would be for a bedside lamp for reading as the main light is a little bright in the evening and some soap in the bathroom would have been nice. All in all though, a great time was had and I would have no hesitation booking again. Thank you for a lovely stay
Aimee Rebekah
Amazing place to stay, would definitely stay again. Modern country interior and brilliant hot tub
Melanie
Wonderful Property, Exactly as described. I particularly liked the fact that each hut was set so that it didn't overlook another, even when in the hot tub. Very kind, helpful family, they should advertise their eggs are for sale!!! They were delicious!

We loved our stay in the Beech. We had everything we needed and we felt like at home. The only thing I would recommend to change is the matress as it was worn out and we could feel it. The rest was perfect!

Stephanie
It was a very lovely stay. And we didnt want to leave. We will definitely rebook here in the future
Rachael
Lovely pod which was spotless and well equipped. We were very comfortable and the views were amazing. The hot tub was used well at night and we had a fabulous clear night star gazing. This is a farm so lots of animals around which we loved but not noisy and the hosts were friendly. A great stay to get away from it all, would definitely go back.
We really enjoyed our stay in Beech. Lovely views from the hot tub and lovely interior of the lodge. They had everything you need. Owner was so nice and welcoming. Would definitely stay here again!
Very welcoming and lovely owners! The pod was exactly as described, very clean and good facilities. We found the location great not too far away from the main attractionslakes but far enough to have a quiet soak in the hot tub in the evenings. Would definitely recommend!
Joanne
I would recommend this stay to all my friends and family. The Beech glamping pod was amazing, beautiful and more than we could ever of imagined. It was perfect in size, very clean and tidy, and absolutely perfect for a family holiday. Ian and Carol were the nicest of host's and we're very accommodating. It's perfectly close to amenities, and lots to see and do xx
Sharon
Enjoyed every minute of the stay. Owners as well as ruby and meg very friendly would recommend to friends and family.
Dalkumar
A very wellfacilitated, clean, and comfortable pod at a great location. The view around the cottage was stunning. The hot tub is very well maintained and was the best part after a long hike. The owners are very friendly and polite. Animals at the farm are another attraction. We had a great time and will surely return. I do recommend everyone for a fantastic holiday.
Great little place. Clean, safe, comfortable, good location, and who doesnt like a jump in a hottub after a days hiking!
Amazing stay! Farm dogs where super cute along with all of the other animals! A lovely intimate cabin with the most amazing hot tub! Would defo come back and have already reccomended to friends and family x
Super hosts, loved our stay, we will be back
Tobias
The set up fantastic. The farm works great for families, especially curious kids. Farmer Ian took his time to explain and show all the animals and more. The cabin was the comfiest weve ever stayed in and by far the best equipped. The hot tub at night and the views in the day, just amazing! We will definitely be back!!!! Overall fantastic!
