Lake District romantic get away in 1 acre gardens off M6

the property was very clean. It had a shower over bath and a wet room the cottage was very spacious and had lovely views

It was a bit cold I couldn’t fill a bath with hot water as it went cold after half way No sky tv

Positive aspects: The property has potential and is in a pleasant location. It is suitable for a short stopover when rest is needed during a long journey. We chose it purely because our family, including children, required a place to sleep before continuing our travel. The property offers enough space to accommodate up to five people and provides parking. Unfortunately, this potential is significantly undermined by poor management. The property was very dirty on arrival, and the heating was inadequate. Due to the condition of the bathroom, we did not feel comfortable using the shower at all. Considering the condition of the property, it does not represent good value for money for the price paid. If you are looking for a clean, cosy, or romantic stay, I would not recommend this property. While standards may vary, our experience fell well below what we would consider acceptable, and for that reason, I would not choose to stay here again.

Great position for your onward journey

The only issue and a small one main tv had no internet otherwise perfect.

We managed to get in

After travelling 5 hours, arriving around 2000, we discovered someone was already staying in the property we booked… luckily, the host had another property available… as if by magic. I don’t want to complain but it was quite unsettling and seems irresponsible from a host to be double booking and causing distress to their guests

This is an excellent cottage. Beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Very spacious bathrooms and plenty of clean towels provided. The double bed was extremely comfortable. It was nice to have some fresh milk in the fridge but it would have been nice to have some tea & coffee provided and not the sachets of all in-one instant coffee. The kitchen, although small was very well equipped and we made full use of it. Plenty of utensils and cutlery, all clean and well looked after. Easy access to the cottage and the owners were proactive prior to arrival. We had a small problem with the Wi-Fi but one call to the owner sorted this out quickly. There is no view from the cottage, other than the balcony as the windows are frosted. This didn't trouble us as we were only there one night. There is traffic noise from a cattle grid at the bottom of the road, not troublesome if you sleep with the windows closed. A perfect cottage for our overnight stay, exactly what we needed. Thank you

We were unable to adjust the heating on the sensors, it was set at 18 degrees and as it was a particularly cold spell it would have been good to be able to set the temperature a bit higher. Luckily the owners had left a very efficient fan heater in the lounge and that solved the problem. I am sure if we had contacted the owners they would have resolved this but we were tired and it wasn't worth bothering them for just this one night. Traffice noise from the cattle -grid at the bottom of the road. Not a problem with the windows closed. The kitchen tap is loose and wobbly and the plug in the en-suite bathroom does not seal properly. These are minor problems but I wanted to draw it to the owners attention.

My only tiny niggle was that the bedside lamp cord only reached the nearest plug socket (that I could find - perhaps I missed something) when I took it on across underneath the pillow. (It was a lovely comfy pillow!)
