"I love this property, its an absolute gem, and will be booking a third stay next year."
There is nothing really to fault except there are still no instruction books or notes for renters at all. The double bed is super comfy and has a fabulous warm duvet for a good night's sleep. The spacious, clean, well equipped interior is to die for and the views are stunning, even on a rainy day. The steep hill and/or the steps from the car park to the property is much too steep for me so I do hope the owner does not mind me parking up at the top using my blue badge if there is space up there. Love it, and have already recommended it to family and friends.

"We enjoyed the stay."
The property is very spacious and well presented. The views are lovely. Plenty of hot water on demand. Possible improvements to consider: Provide lighter weight quilts in the hot weather, provide a mirror on the main road at the bottom of the drive,; it was quite dangerous getting out onto the road from the drive.

"It's a lovely property, well set out with amazing view."
We had a nice time. But a number of issues that need addressing soon otherwise a very nice property will end up been a dump.
There was a lot of mould in the showers and they just didn't dry out.
Showers were old and falling apart, shower head would not stay up
Shower drain was blocked with hair (pretty disgusting that we had to unblock this to prevent flooding, it just hadn't been cleaned)
Need to clean under the sofas. There is a lot of rubbish and mouldy old food under them if you pop out the leg rests.
Dishwasher and washing machine are both old and worn out.
Fridge door seems like it's on its way out.
Limited plug sockets, still had some of the old (pre 1962) sockets...need to get round to swooping these out!

"Lovely stay to attend the Keswick Convention."
Very roomy and definitely comfy. Stunning view for our morning coffee on the patio. Bring own cafetière! Had a slight cooker switch issue, our fault and managed to stop Sykes engineer coming out just in time - excellent customer service team. Good walking options from back path. Would come again.

"Great location either to drive to different starting points for walks or take the bus to Keswick with the bus stop just a couple of minutes walk."
Accommodation was clean, spacious and modern. Ideal set up for walkers to take off muddy boots without messing up the hallway.
We were lucky with the weather and made full use of the seating area outside or if there was a shower there is an undercover area to seat out as well. The views were amazing.
Not a negative, but just for information is to bring everything you need with you, eg salt, pepper, foil, that type of thing. It was a missing a cafetière which would have been nice as we do like our coffee.
A welcome pack would have been nice too but overall a great place to stay and would definitely go back if in the area.

"Lovely comfortable accommodation with amazing view."
For future guest information would point out take all your condiments, tea coffee sugar milk and all your everyday essentials as nothing provided.
There was 3 dishwasher and 4 laundry tablets hand-wash and toilet rolls.
This shouldn't put you off going but better to know beforehand.

"The property was lovely with great views."
Would have liked a welcome booklet with details of wifi , heating etc. the property was clean apart from the oven which was covered in fat and filled the room with smoke when we put it on. The fan oven part didn’t heat up. Also a t towel was left under the dishwasher tablets that was stained beyond belief. Was report to Sykes but was told was left there in error. !!

"The property was as we remembered, it would have been nice if there had been some heating on to welcome us, it was freezing!"
A disappointment was also being without Wi-Fi for the whole visit, seems as though it was a local fault that they were trying to fix, but it was a miss.
These things aside, the property is very well equipped and the beds are very comfy, one thing though, in the twin room the boiler is in the bedroom cupboard, and when heating kicked in, it was noisy.

"We found 5 Ladstock Hall to be all we wanted and more."
It is a very well appointed place. Everything was good quality and had a luxury feel. Bedding and towels lovely.
The bed was super comfortable. The rooms are warm and airy. ( visited in December)
It is set in wonderful grounds that help you relax and escape.
A wonderful space with great views. We walked from the property up into the woods which are magical. Another day over to Keswick and all it has to offer. Thank you. We hope to come back again.

"Great property in a great location."
Very spacious and comfortable all round with outstanding views. Only let down by what seems to be a lazy and lax approach to customers from “owner” ie: a token welcome file with local, relevant and important information would have been nice. No previous customer recommended eateries or walks from “here”. No emergency contact numbers docs/dentist or taxis/ buses. Not even a convenient wi-fi code. We can glean information from Google etc but it’s nice to feel welcomed and appreciated.
Would still recommend.

"We recently stayed in 5 Ladstock Hall for 9 days and used the base for exploring the Lake District and a climb of Scafell Pike."
The property was exactly as described online and was very well stocked with all the essentials for a comfortable stay.
Although about 3 miles outside Keswick,we would recommend the location as an ideal base to explore the lovely surrounding area and beyond.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay
We hope to welcome you back to the Lakes again.
