The site is really tidy and well situated, which we liked. The farm smell was a bit much at times, so we skipped the hot tub a couple of days. Otherwise, it was spot on!

Overall, we had a pretty good stay. The lodge was mostly well-stocked with essentials, although we did notice a missing potato masher and a decent mixing bowl. The oven grill tray wasn’t spotless when we arrived, but everything else was clean and tidy. The welcome pack of wine and chocolates was a lovely touch to start our trip!

We recently stayed at the Askham Centre Escape in Purdey and honestly, we had a pretty good time. The lodge was spotless and modern, with handy amenities like a coffee maker and dishwasher, which made things so much easier. The wifi was surprisingly reliable - it only cut out briefly a couple of times and it was fast enough for my partner to stream a football match outside in the hot tub, which was lovely. Speaking of the hot tubs, they were cleaned and maintained daily and even though they only go up to 40°C for safety, it was fine for the hour and a half we spent relaxing. One of the jets didn’t work, but honestly, it didn’t ruin our experience. The location was perfect, tucked away on a quiet corner plot with no immediate neighbours and most of the surrounding lodges were empty, so it was super peaceful. We’d definitely consider coming back!

We had such a lovely stay! The owners are incredibly friendly and thoughtful, making us feel really welcome. The cottage itself is absolutely charming, with its traditional half-timbered style and a lovely strong shower. The cosy kitchen and comfy bed made it really easy to relax. Plus, parking right next to the cottage was super convenient. It’s spotlessly clean, well heated and perfect for exploring local walks or heading to Thaxted’s beautiful village with its windmill and old houses. We’d definitely come back!

The place was really welcoming and warm, honestly! Just a small touch like curtains or blinds would make it feel even more homely, but overall lovely.

We absolutely love this holiday park! It’s perfect for dog owners like us, super welcoming and friendly. The lodges are stunning-so modern and spotless. The views of Blencathra are breathtaking, especially at sunset. It’s peaceful here, just a short drive to Pooley Bridge and Keswick. We’ve already booked our third trip and can’t wait to come back again soon! Definitely a place we’ll keep returning to.

We loved this little gem! The cottage feels so secluded yet is close enough to shops and cafes. The hot tub was a real treat and the underfloor heating kept us cosy. Rob, Sharon and Bonnie made us feel really welcome. Can’t wait to return for a longer stay!

We had such a lovely time at Flusco Wood in the Lake District. The on-site facilities were spot on-clean, well-kept and just right for relaxing. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, especially Cliff, who made sure we knew how everything worked in the cottage. We were really lucky with the weather in March, which made our trip even better. There are some cracking walks nearby and the location is just perfect-peaceful but still close enough to visit all the main spots in the Lakes and Penrith without any hassle. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. We’d definitely recommend Flusco Wood and would love to come back sometime!

We booked this place for our honeymoon and honestly, it was fantastic. The lodge was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated and really comfortable - we couldn’t find a single fault. The hot tub was a real highlight and we loved that staff came to clean it every morning, which was a nice touch. Everyone we spoke to was so friendly and helpful, especially when we had a little problem with the gate. The location is great too, easy to get to Pooley Bridge, Keswick and Ambleside. We had an amazing week and are already planning our return trip!

We recently stayed at Flusco Wood for four nights and honestly, it was a lovely experience. The site’s so peaceful, perfect for relaxing away from the hustle. The lodges and caravans were spotless and had plenty of storage, which was really handy. The staff really went above and beyond, especially with our friend who has mobility issues-they were super helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We were also waiting on a birthday parcel that we missed on the first day, but the team sorted it out quickly and kept it a secret-great service! We’ll definitely be coming back, it’s a cracking holiday spot!

We absolutely loved our stay at Flusco! The lodge’s decor was stylish and cosy and the verandah offered stunning views. There were a couple of hiccups with the hot water, but the staff sorted it swiftly. Totally recommend it for a peaceful getaway!

We recently stayed here for a couple of nights with our dog and partner and honestly, it was fantastic. The lodge itself was spotless, modern and really comfortable. The hot tub was a real highlight - so relaxing and private, with no worries about anyone walking past. Only thing is, the smart TVs didn't connect to the internet, so we were limited to Freeview, which was a bit of a letdown. Still, overall, a great weekend and super welcoming for our dog too!

The lodge was spot on and the location lovely. Neighbours got a bit loud at night, but there’s a request to keep noise down after 10:30. We’d come back!

4 night stay Mon to Friday - family of 3.
We had booked a Gobarrow lodge but were offered an upgrade to an Askham Wood lodge before we arrived.
Staff very helpful and informative and check in was very quick and easy.
The Park location is good only 6 miles from J40 M6 and is very well maintained and secure.
Our lodge was very clean, fresh and modern and had everything we needed (and more) for our stay.
The decked areas and hot tub were perfect for relaxing after long days out.
We booked a Sainsburys grocery delivery to the site for 6.30pm( no issues) the nearest local convenience store is based at the Esso petrol station at the Rheged centre about 3.5 miles away - great for odd things you may have forgot to bring with you!!
Places to go:
Pooley Bridge/Ullswater only 5 miles away. Take the boat trip to Glenridding (not cheap) well worth it for the fantastic views.
Can also try paddle boarding there with Alfresco adventure - hire board and wet suit.
Dalemain House is about 5 miles away and is worth a visit, the gardens are lovely, nice tea room and really good tour guides.
Rheged centre is really good, nice cafe with a good choice of food and drink. We also went to the cinema there - 2 screens and latest movies very good value for money
Keswick - lovely town, lots of shops and places to eat and you can walk around Derwent water which is really nice.
Flusco Wood gets a 10/10 from us.
Lisa
Had a great break in a lovely lodge ( very modern and clean and with a fabulous hot tub ). We were in the Kingfisher so fairly private setting . Will be back !
Mark
We stayed In Cabin Penrith. The Cabin was spotless so was the hot tub. We had an amazing time and will definitely be returning! The dog also thoroughly enjoyed himself! Thank you ?
Paul
Initially booked the wrong accommodation wasn’t until the week before we noticed. I contacted them and they was able to change my accommodation thankfully. I would like to thank all the staff at flusco and a special thank you to Chloe. You went above and beyond.
Grant
Lovely holiday home. Very clean and comfortable. I would only say the location of the hot tub is a bit disjointed. More than enough room on the decking which would allow those using the tub to interact with those not using it.
Kim
Great place to stay for a quiet getaway. Hot tubs and accommodation clean . Had a lovely time away ?
Susanne
Lovely peaceful site good dog walking places
Darley
Didn’t have a lot of contact with staff but when we did they were friendly & helpful
