Orchard Hideaways, Penrith, The Lake District

The pods were incredibly clean and spacious, providing plenty of room for a comfortable stay. the beautiful orchard field surrounding the site added a lovely touch of nature to the experience. the inclusion of a fridge in the pods was a great bonus, making it easy to keep our drinks and snacks cool.

The kettle size was a bit small, making it a bit time-consuming to make more than one cup of tea at a time. I wish the site had been a bit larger to allow older kids to have more space to wander and play.

Conveniently located near local animal hospital. Booked last minute, cheaper than other options. Clean facilities, friendly hosts. Picnic and BBQ area available. Privacy between lodges.

Value for money and great location. The staff liked to help in all our needs.

I was pleasantly surprised by the value for money and the fact that Orchard Hideaways welcomes dogs. It was important for me to bring my furry friend along, and the pet enclosure cabin provided a secure space for them. The location near the motorway was perfect for my needs, allowing me to break up my journey conveniently. The pod itself was cozy and comfortable, and I appreciated the little touches like the torch by the door. The fenced-off area around the pod meant that I didn't have to worry about my dogs wandering off. Plus, the BBQ places were a great addition for a fun evening.

The walk from the car to the pod was a bit more of a hassle than expected, especially when carrying all our bedding, pillows, and dog supplies. It would have been helpful to be informed about the distance from the car park in advance.

Super clean and clean hotel

Quiet and central location. Lovely showers and bathrooms. Amazing staff and communication. Reasonable pricing

Nothing, all excellent.

The pods at Orchard Hideaways were lovely, with very comfy beds and a clean and tidy site. The showers were exceptional and always kept clean and fresh. The location was great, with easy access to both the North and South Lakes. The owners were friendly and the toilet facilities were also great.

Felt cozy, nothing to complain about.

The staff were friendly and approachable, and the location was excellent, close to all amenities and tourist attractions. Highly recommend for a short or long break!

The breakfast selection could be better.

Thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay in the pod at Orchard Hideaways. The location was great for exploring the lakes and easily accessible. The pod was immaculate, comfy, and well-equipped with added extras like a kettle and microwave. Highly recommend and will definitely be back in the future.

Do recommend this hotel.

The location of the hotel is very convenient, close to the motorway, allowing for easy travel around the area. the pods themselves are clean and comfortable, providing a cozy atmosphere for a relaxing stay. the hot tub and sauna experience was a unique highlight, particularly enjoyed by the children. the staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that everything was well-maintained and attending to any needs or questions that arose.

The communal area was occasionally taken over by a large family, not considering the other guests. This could be addressed by the hotel to ensure fair use of shared spaces.

Clean rooms, warm and cosy, dog-friendly, quiet location, close to shops and amenities, well-maintained facilities, communal eating area with barbecue, convenient location for exploring the Lake District.

Hard to think of anything.

The location was perfect, with Penrith town center just a 30-minute walk away and Ullswater a short drive away. The cozy and immaculate pods couldn't have been better.

Had a great time over Christmas! The view from our pod was stunning, and the site was well laid out. The toilet and shower facilities were clean, warm, and just what we needed. The pod had everything we needed, including a fridge, electricity, and a microwave. The location was perfect for exploring the northern part of the Lakes, with supermarkets and fast food restaurants nearby. We also enjoyed the small luxuries like having our own BBQ area with a bench. Can't wait to go back in March!

That our pod didn't have a fridge, and there wasn't anywhere to freeze cool box blocks. This made it a bit challenging for us as we stayed longer than a weekend and our breakfast food and milk went off.

Lovely, clean, comfy beds, friendly staff, well-kept garden, convenient location.

Nothing to fault.

Clean facilities, spacious pods, friendly staff, convenient location.

Nothing that I didn't like.

The pod was cozy and clean, with all the basic amenities provided. the showers and toilets were well-maintained too. the location was convenient, close to the town center with a good selection of restaurants and bars nearby. the staff were helpful and provided clear instructions for self-check-in.

The pods were situated near a busy main road, which resulted in some noise disturbance. There was also a lack of clear directions to a public walkway, making it difficult to navigate the area on foot.
