location is fantastic if you have a car. It's ideal to visit plenty of places easily. The cottage is big and we really enjoyed the log burner. It's warm (except the hallway). It's comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. even managed to cook a Christmas dinner on Christmas day :)
under the furniture could do with a better clean. However I have very little negative comment to make we would come back

The property was well situated within the Lake District and was a warm and comfortable stay. The garden area was very helpful for a quick dog walk in the morning and last thing at night. There was plenty of room for two people and a dog.
Overall the property is poorly maintained, a bit grubby and not really suited for sleeping up to 5 people. I think this property is not regularly inspected by the owner and relies on someone else to do all the cleaning etc… I think if the owner did view the property, they would be very disappointed.
On our arrival we found the bathroom not being cleaned, water on the floor from a leak in the ceiling which had to be dried a couple of times and hair in the sink. The was a broken glass in the cupboard, a broken dining room chair, the curtains in the second bedroom hanging off the rail and kitchen tiles which had fallen off the wall. Overall not worth the money spent to stay here for the week. Will think twice about using Booking. Com again.

Perfect, quiet accommodation allowed space to reset and be surrounded by nature. The short walk to the Lake was a huge bonus and felt like a private beach! Perfect for furry four-legged friends.
Although it was great being remote, it felt at times a bit too far away from places. The ferry toll adds up, as does the car parking, so we had to plan trips with this in mind.

Beautiful quite location, with open fields and great views. Accommodation was well laid out with plenty of space in the bedrooms; not cramped. Loads of storage space in each room and hallway, bonus of an airing cupboard which was great for drying out damp kit after a soggy hike. The bathroom was spacious and the double shower head and bath an absolute life saver to soak away sore muscles. Really good selection of kitchen equipment and the knives provided were actually sharp. Loved the little touches, such as a small supply of tea, coffee and milk, also cleaning supplies (scouring sponge, cloth, washing up liquid & tea towels) and most importantly a dog bowl.
It was initially hard to find as postcode codes are a little hit and miss, but What3Words helped. The booking.com description did not do this place justice, there is no mention of the use of a communal freezer or that the site recycles which would have been helpful information. There were some issues with cleanliness, found a vape on the living room windowsill, hair clips on the floor of the main bedroom, long dark hair stuck to the wall of the shower and odd things like 5 forks, 4 teaspoon but 8 knives and dessert spoons, There was plenty of crockery however bowls were tiny and dinner plates were massive.

Beautiful setting. Quiet & peaceful.
Helpful staff at check in. Perfect location for Coniston & Windermere. Accommodation was one of a handful that slept 5 adults in a set up we could make work. We had everything we needed for our stay.
Nothing we didn’t like.
As a group of 5 adults on a sporting weekend the bathroom was well used! However we knew there was only one bathroom when we booked and it did work.

The location was stunning, there were walks nearby though some were overgrown. Peaceful location.
Many little niggles, such as finding underwear in the bedroom side table, the lights in the ‘children’s’ room was really dull and cleaning could have been better. The cottage could use some updating.

Very clean and nicely made up. All the basics were available in the kitchen and a little welcome tray with coffee tea and long life milk sachets was greatly appreciated.
The location is absolutely stunning; we all loved the short walk to the lake and playing in the communal area with the kids.
Plenty of parking and a very peaceful area despite there being other families in the neighbouring cottages.
Lots of storage for our clothes and found the entrance useful to shed wellies after rainy walks.
We didn’t see any staff members; and didn’t need any assistance. We arrived a little earlier than the 4pm check in and we were very happy that the cleaning staff had made the cottage ready for us to get settled in.
The fireplace was a welcome friend as two of our days were rainy but the cottage was inviting and sweet.
We didn’t use the shared laundry but we’re glad to know it was there.
We took our three kids so would have appreciated some spare blankets for the colder nights and a couple more small towels for hair.
We brought a couple of light fleece blankets but used them to help block light in the kids room as the curtains didn’t do quite enough for our lot who wake with the sun!

The holiday area was just what we were looking for and expected. The "barn" was clean and comfortable and it had everything you needed for self catering. Once you turned the radiators on it did get quite cosy.
It was a bit dated and in need of a few repairs. A couple of the radiators were loose, and the bathroom was in need of some modernisation and/or tlc. The shower is over the bath, which is no good for people who struggle to get in and out of a bath. A walk-in shower would be ideal, especially since all the light switches seemed to be very low for wheelchairs 🤷♀️
Also, it doesn't really stipulate that there is a wood burner, which would have been nice, so we would have ordered logs from the shop.

The location was great, easy access to all the walks I had planned.
Made the 4 nights a pleasure.
The only negative was the main bedroom could do with a blackout blind or curtains as when the sun came up the bedroom curtain's didn't block the light out.

The location the grassed area and lake beneath. Very clean, warm on entry
I could smell and see a dog pee stain on the main bedroom carpet, as you open the door. I have a dog myself who throughly enjoyed himself, but this wasn’t very nice it may just need an extra clean and airing . As an idea , maybe offer a simple supply from your farm shop . Homemade meal in the fridge almost like a mini bar. Pay as you use. This may make you a bit of money too

Everything! The hosts were very helpful when I needed to message and the property was lovely clean comfy and peaceful.
Not having a freezer as we didn’t fancy putting our food in a communal one outside

The property was in a great location, it was clean and comfortable and it was great to have a field close by for the dog to run in. Easy to park the car. Cooking/kitchen was fine. You can order food in advance to be delivered, which was great.
It would have been good to have a drying rack for wet clothes.

Lovely property. Very nicely laid out for families.
Thin curtains didn’t keep light out very much. Passing cars at night (from other residents) lit up kids bedroom. Very minor issue as not many cars on site but thought I would mention.
