8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
We loved the lounge with its open fire and healthy supply of fuel. The kitchen was very nice and modern, although I don't know how anyone uses any of the high cupboards. The beds were very comfortable with nice bedding. If I was to suggest some improvements, while functional, I think the bedroom curtains and upstairs bathroom need some attention. Nevertheless, we hope to return another time.

Eight of us had a lovely long weekend at Little Parrock. The location is fantastic in a quiet setting (although easy walking distance to Grasmere) with beautiful views. Good walking (and swimming) straight for the door without needing a car. The house was clean, with plenty of space and equipment for cooking, eating and relaxing (including barbecue and outdoor seating), which we made good use of. Great to have accommodation that you enter through the boot room (you get the kind of holidays we have ;)), though it could be improved by more coat pegs or a clothes airer to hang our gear from. The beds were comfortable and the showers / bath worked well (although first day we had not read the instructions that the hot water was on a timer, which didn't coincide with our shower times- we had it sorted for the rest of our stay). Notes to the caretakers - the waste pipe from the upstairs bathroom is corroded and leaking down the outside of the house-it didn't bother us but will need fixing. The bulb needs replacing in the light at the bottom of the stairs for safety reasons (we found a bulb, but no ladder to reach the light). Some of the curtains are missing hooks so they don't glide as they should. All minor points though that did not detract from a really fantastic stay. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic property with a very well appointed kitchen, comfortabl beds and plenty of room. Water pressure was a bit iffy resulting in the shower upstairs losing power if the shower downstairs was in use - but this was a minor issue. I've never commented on wallpaper before, but the huge OS map of The Lakes in the kitchen on the wall was simply stunning, and enabled us to plan our days well. THe map of London on the wall in one of the bedrooms was less useful, but just as lovely. It was great having a quooker in the kitchen for hot water - saved loads of time boiling the kettle.
My only other slight criticism was that the pans, steamers and lids in the kitchen were not wholly compatible with each other!
We'd defintely recommend Little Parrock and hope to return.
