What our customers say about their holidays
Kevin - Verified booking
Over all the property was of a high standard.
All the bedrooms and bathroom facilities were amazing as well as the living areas. The grounds were also well kept well considering the time of year being February and the bad weather conditions prior to our arrival. There was a lovely arrival package of wine, local jams and bread which was a lovely touch. It is an extremely rural location which may not suit some families but we loved it. We came as 2 families of 4 adults, 2 x 12âs boys, 2 x 14 girls and 2 x 8âa girls. There are a few things that need to be looked at but it didnât impact negatively on the holiday although these would have bothered me more if I was paying the higher prices of the summer months. Some lights are out in the drive way on the approach to the property. The gates on the entrance and exit could do with touching up Lights in the main living area above the dining room are different wattage so look odd. The oven gas points donât all work and this was a pain. One of the large gas rings wonât stay on at all and other large one goes off when cooking. When cooking for 10 you need them all to work. The dials to use at the front of the over have been warm away so had to guess the settings. Still not sure what they are on the grill side. Iâd suggest new oven is needed. Dish washer seal gone on the left hand side causing it to leak slightly. Cooking Scales donât work even when I replaced the batteries. Hot tub is not the hot tub in the photos (itâs not wooden), not a real issue but should be the correct photo. Also the hot tub is a 4 man hot tub so for a property that holds 10 is too small. Sauna not working (understand out of the owners control as due to storm damage). We were told about this prior to arrival so good communication. No battery pack in Xbox controller (canât use normal batteries). Only 2 remote controls for 3 TVâs. We did all still had an amazing stay and I would definitely recommend the property. These are mainly small things that can be easily sorted but issues that really shouldnât be there in a 5* property.

The cottage is in a lovely location only three miles from Coniston.
Close to several fells and interesting quarries it is ideally placed for walking. The inside of the cottage does have some appeal but is tired in appearance, The kitchen is well appointed with implements but is short in some vital things such as a mixing bowl. The plaster above the cooker hood is loose and some fell into one of our cooking pots. The lounge would benefit from a rug on the cold slate floor and the log burner is missing a grate and we ended up almost servicing the vents. It was so log consuming and we felt a better supply of logs could have been provided having paid over £1k for the week rather than enough for one evening. Internet access is poor and if you need to 'work' it was not enough. We couldn't download a film in the evenings. In the main bathroom the bath side was constantly falling off and the towel rail was loose. The water supply was good and constantly warm. The bedrooms were cosy with two double beds, on the first floor the bed is placed such that in a morning you can lay in and enjoy a view of the woodlands opposite. Little notes were left all around the property which was annoying! The worst experience I had however was impaling my foot on a nail from a piece of wood that had been removed during renovations of the shed roof and left abandoned in the long grass next to where the recycling bag was. Fortunately it didn't pierce my foot but did my boot sole. Photographic evidence is available! Would I recommend the cottage? No, but the local area is beautiful. Did I get value for money? Certainly not. I know times are hard and fuel prices are rising but for this cottage I paid a lot more that I did for a better appointed premise last New Year which had a hot tub!

We have just had a wonderful week here, with our children, their partners and grandchild and of course the dog.
It is a very special location, away from all hustle and bustle and totally private in addition to being very beautiful. The layout has been carefully designed and was a perfect fit for our family. It has been sensitively designed to blend with the landscape and the outdoor facilities were very much enjoyed. The welcome pack that was provided was very generous and gladly received. The quality of the property is good and itâs obvious that a lot of thought went into the planning and resourcing of materials, fixtures and fittings. The property was really clean, and all bedding and linen was of a good quality and very nice to have towels provided for outdoors. To make this place really âsparkleâ, it could do with some light maintenance. I was disappointed to find that bathroom fans were mentioned in a previous review, there are still issues with them, maybe it is time for some new ones! Fundamentals like the kitchen knives need sharpening and we had at least 5 light bulbs that needed replacing but there were no spares anywhere. I wonât list all the little niggles here, but we left a list with the cleaner, so I hope that these are addressed. It just needs a little TLC to bring back the polish. Visitors also need to come prepared for ticks; they are prevalent in the Lake District. We thankfully had tick cards and they came in useful as three of the family picked up a tick and whenever we walked the dog, he picked some up, we got very used to spotting them before they bit. This property is special and unique in its location, and we would willingly return, although we do like to try new places, but we would highly recommend it.

The ground floor windows are locked shut, which means all the insects which enter through the stable door cannot escape.
The latch on said door is faulty and it will nip the fingers if youâre not careful. The rear step has a loose triangle of sharp edged broken slate. The grass hadnât been cut, a foot long! My service dog got a tick on both days we spent entirely in the garden. £45 per tick from the excellent vets in Ambleside. The garden is a haven for midges, itâs quite a marsh beyond the gate. Patio and garden are not private, having strangers mill around your back door is not relaxing or pleasant. The bath was hugely disappointing, the hot water is pond coloured and definitely not inviting a long relaxing soak. We all chose the electric shower instead! The laminated signage (of which there are many) donât add anything to the overall ambience of rural cottage. Be aware that no washing powder nor dishwasher tablets are included in the price. Some cutlery had caked on foodstuffs. Despite previous comments (we read all before booking) still only the one pint glass. Kitchen is poorly lit, Iâll thought out and we all chuckled sitting at the table; with our elbows at shoulder level (Low chairs & high table)! Donât inspect the mattress or bedding until the end of your stay would be my advice. Donât expect any phone signal nor any useable Wi-Fi. The router blinks red 99% of the time. Donât expect any help whatsoever if youâre stuck with no water. Water being essential for life; Iâd not recommend this cottage. Excellent location but too many negatives. The very long black hair remains where I found it; on my sink, between the taps!

We treated ourselves to this house as it is big birthday year for me and my husband.
Whilst it was a very comfy stay, everyone slept well and there was plenty of room the standard of accommodation was fairly ordinary and not particularly high end as the listing would have you believe. Outside the grounds were lovely and the house is in a very rural area with no tourists, no traffic, beautiful skies and plenty of low level walks. However in the garden the sauna door didn't close and the hot tub was tiny - the house is for 10 people and only 3 people could use it comfortably. Inside we were warm and cosy. The kitchen was well stocked with quality items. However the oven was a real pain - all the icons rubbed off, it took a few goes to find the right setting - 2 hours one night to cook some frozen chips! There still isn't a frying pan, and the master bedroom smells damp. Whilst some rooms were roasting hot others were freezing cold. We tried to light the woodburner but the room filled with smoke. The verdict was it's a lovely house but tired. I find it annoying that the problems we had have been mentioned several times before, on other reviews and clearly nothing has been done. Leaving the sauna door like it is is just plain careless and an insult to people spending that extra money for these things. You can get equally if not better accommodation for less than half the price in more central areas closer to the fells.
