What guests are saying
Had a 3 night break with son and grandchildren.
We enjoyed our stay. The lawned area was great for the kids, as were the extensive grounds and walled garden (secret garden to the kids). The property was spacious enough, but small kitchen area with freezer that couldn't be opened fully - hence could only pull out drawers 6 inches or so. However, as noted by a previous reviewer any prospective renters need to be aware that the property is in need of some tlc and maintenance. The TV is basic, wifi is hit and miss, and the long unmade drive is pretty rough. The location is great for Cartmel, Grange, and southern end of Windermere lake.
The big plus side of this property is the ambience of the grounds and large walled garden, very quite and relaxing.
On the other hand it is on the market which reflects why the rental cottages are very tired (eg shower door missing). There is no point dwelling on these issues but future guests ought to be aware that the wifi is very hit and miss and when you do get a signal it tends to be quite slow. The TV is not a Smart TV, so no streaming or catchup. The picture does not reflect the old kitchen which sits in a courtyard along with several other rentals with shared lawn which is quite nice and is entered from the side of the house not the front which took a little while to discover. Only two other rentals were booked during our stay so it was very quiet. If all the others were rented it might be a different story. Overall don't expect luxury but grounds are a massive bonus.
Group of four life long friends shared a short break.
Plenty of parking, staff very helpful when needed. Having a downstairs bedroom and bathroom was a perfect set up. The kitchen had good facilities. The furniture and decor was all in keeping with the age of the property so don't expect modern furniture! Beds very comfortable. We loved the freedom and the location of the property, within walking distance of Cartmel and would definitely return.
