Thanks for the lovely review, John! We’re so glad you had a wonderful stay and hope to welcome you back again in the future.
Long weekend with my partner, the house was incredible, much nicer than the photos do it justice. We had amazing weather and it was great to sit out in the garden with log burner on throughout the evenings and the hot tub was lovely to relax in.

We truly appreciate your kind words and are grateful to have been a part of your memorable experience. If you ever plan to visit again, please don't hesitate to reach out. We would love to welcome you back for another wonderful stay.
In the heart of Windermere village, the property is delightful. The walk into windermere is minutes and 1.25 miles to bowness.
The property is clean, modern and fully equipped.
We all enjoyed the hottub one evening too
What a fantastic cottage with everything we could have needed. Very homely and it was such a nice touch to arrive with the heating and lights on. Just a short walk into Windermere so was perfect for the whole family. The dog settled really well and our 6 year old son said it was the place place he'd ever stayed! The owner was super accommodating when we needed a late check-out due to the heavy snow. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be coming back.

Liked: Cleanliness, communication
Quiet neighborhood
Nice property
Front door lock hard to operate.
Beds were uncomfortable
No toiletries provided
Property was as expected but some areas needed attention. Kitchen floor hadn't been cleaned, the work tops felt sticky in places and there were discarded bottle tops under the fridge door and half used bags of chips, pizzas etc in the freezer. The lounge was comfy but smelled as though dogs had recently stayed there. The hot tub area is nice but the water needs cleaning.
Bedrooms were lovely and the bedding fresh.
Great location, short walk to shops, bars and restaurants.
I am a little disappointed at the overall cleanliness of the property but otherwise had an enjoyable stay
The property was lovely, the rooms were decorated to a good standard and were all of a good size. The house was very clean and tidy.
The beds were comfortable, and the bedding clean and of good quality.
Really enjoyed the stay and the location is superb.
A few things could be improved, there was only 1 towel a person supplied, when you have a hot tub you need more towels. The front garden was also very overgrown with brambles across the pathway, and the amount of cutlery supplied in the property wasn’t enough.
These were small things though and didn’t spoil the stay.
It’s worth noting the garden isn’t secure for dogs, even though the listing says it will be in a few weeks, it said that in Feb when we booked and it still isn’t secure now.
The house is located a 2 minute walk from coffee shops/restaurants with a bus stop around the corner.
The hot tub was amazing and the house is decorated to a very high standard. We would stay again
