Crosby Lakeside

I arranged for my brother and his family to stay here over in August. Really great location right on the front of the lake. I met them for breakfast each morning and the food and service was 5 star. One morning we were served by Christian who was attentive and helpful. We were also served by Chloe who made a great flat white! Thank you

I took my grandson and a few friends to do water sports for his birthday and had food after in the restaurant. Tracey was an amazing support helping the children get ready and make sure their life jackets fitted. Tyra from the restaurant had all the food covered and the staff were really great with 9 boisterous hungry boys. Everything was perfect because of all the staff. I highly recommend trying everything the lakeside has to offer, you won’t be disappointed

We used the marine lake to hire paddleboards (£12 per hour). The staff couldn't be more helpful, and we felt very safe. It's very easy to launch, and the cafe looking out on the lake was dog friendly so everyone was happy. We lost track of time paddling, and ended up returning a ring to some children up the other end (what lovely little beaches!). As we were out longer than we should the boat came over and reminded us it was way over time, oops! Luckily, it wasn't busy! They were very nice about it, time flies when you're having fun!!

Cafe is a perfect stop off for a regular beach and park dog walker. It opens early including Mon/Tue when everywhere else locally seems to be closed in winter. Staff are genuinely welcoming and the setting is spacious, clean and attractive. Excellent coffee and cake, served quickly and very reasonably priced. My border collie is always welcomed and fussed over - dogs are well catered for in the cafe area - 5 stars, cheers.
