10/10 Excellent

lovely cottage in a central location

We enjoyed a very comfortable stay in No 2 Seed Howe. The cottage is very atmospheric and has a quirky layout with living room and kitchen upstairs. The ground floor bedrooms stay cool in the warm weather, which is a bonus in the current heatwave! The kitchen needs a few essentials like baking trays, and the garden at the back is a lovely suntrap, just needs some TLC. Overall, we had a great stay and found that Staveley is a very central location in the Lakes. Would definitely recommend!

Very cosy and spacious cottage

We really enjoyed the spacious house. The upstairs living space gives a lot of atmosphere. Spacious kitchen with enough appliances etc. The contact with the host was very pleasant and the information in the house was also more than sufficient. Nice games and books. Beautiful location from where you can explore the area on foot, by bike, car, or public transport. We had a great time!

Thank you for your review of Seed Howe, you definitely brought the weather with you as you said you would. We are pleased you were able to get out and about on your bike and explore our beautiful corner of England. We have spoken to our caretaker regarding the cobwebs and she is addressing these on her next visit and apologises that they had been missed.

2 Seed Howe Cottages

This is a very pleasant period terraced cottage on the edge of the village. Staveley has several decent shops, pub and other facilities. Very handy location just off the A591 (Kendall - Windermere road). We found the cottage clean, tidy, well appointed and tastefully finished. We particularly liked the open plan living-dining-kitchen layout on the first floor, while the bedrooms on the ground floor were cosy, with two modern shower rooms. We very much enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again next year, so that should tell its own story.

Nice and Cosy House in a Great Location.

The House is in prime location for all of your Lake District excursions. The House has great beds, excellent showers, comfortable living room for the evenings, and a well stocked kitchen and easy to operate kitchen with all your basic needs. 2 main things that were a bit disappointing. The lock on the door does not give a great feeling of security in the house. The door lock should be reinforced to give a better feeling. The second issue was the dishwasher which was shorting the electricity, and which was not dealt with during our stay (granted it was a bank holiday weekend, which makes it more excusable, but we felt a little uncomfortable that there are electricity problems). The electricity should also be dealt with asap. Overall we had a good experience in the house, and would recommend that others visit the property, especially if these two issues are dealt with beforehand, as the rest of the house is comfortable and the location excellent.

Thank you for your review, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Seed Howe, it is a lovely cottage in an ideal location for exploring the lakes. Unfortunately we were unable to get any one out to the dishwasher over the bank holiday weekend, our white goods contractor was away for the bank holiday weekend. He has been out and the dishwasher has been replaced. We hope we can welcome you back again in the future.

Wat een heerlijk huisje!

Mooi, sfeervol en volledig uitgerust huisje. Heerlijk om in “thuis” te komen na een dag buiten. Goede ligging, nabij kleine boodschappen en gevarieerde horeca.
