"This was a wonderful property, very cozy, comfortable, and convenient."
It was a lovely place to stay for my first time in the Lake District and felt like home. I appreciated the instructions throughout the cottage on how to use appliances, etc. The hot water was a bit lukewarm. In all other respects it was a perfect stay!
We are pleased that your enjoyed your visit and hope that you will visit our cottage again in the future.
Should you do so, please run the hot water for a minute in cold weather to allow the combi boiler to supply hot water to the bathroom.
I will create an instruction sheet for future guests so thank you for your constructive comment.

"The cottage was perfect, however we had a small issue with the water temperature, the supply of hot water was not consistent and mostly ran cold or warm at best."
I emailed you (Lakes Cottages) on Tuesday to see if we needed to adjust anything and I received no reply. So in summary the cottage was marvellous which is a credit to the owners, but let down by the letting agent not been helpful when there was an issue.
Thanks for visiting our holiday let, Raglan Cottage. We are really glad you enjoyed your visit and we are really sorry that you experienced a problem with the hot water.
A plumber has attended and reset the pressure on the boiler.
We hope this did not effect your enjoyment of the holiday too much and look forward to welcoming you back to our cottage again in the future.
Thank You

"We were so lucky."
8 days and 7 nights holiday didn’t have any rain, it was sunshine every day, made our journey especially enjoyable. The location is brilliant, near lots of attractions and local shops and restaurants. I really want to appreciate the team who manage their house. I left my sunglasses over there, they found it and posted it back to me, this is short sight sunglasses and really important to me. Thanks again for helping me get my glasses back.

"A lovely cottage & we would definitely stay again."
Location is perfect, we liked the walk up & down into the main town. The only bad thing was all the towels had a foisty smell & an electric towel rail would be beneficial as having 2 showers a day they didn’t dry. Next time we would just take our own towels so it’s no big issue.

"Raglan Cottage is perfectly located in lovely town."
The cottage is well equipped, clean and cosy. The beds were very comfortable and the amount of space is great for a holiday cottage. The parking was variable, sometimes none and sometimes lots so we paid for a 7 day car park pass for the car park at the end of the road then just used that when we couldn’t get on the street.

"Raglan Cottage was great - perfect location - walking distance to Bowness & Windermere - on the bus route too."
Cottage itself was spacious, lovely and welcoming, warm & clean on arrival. The weather as you would expect for late October was very wet on couple of days and could have been tough especially with a small child but this didn't matter to us in our 'home away from home', we had come prepared with our DVD's & games so were able to entertain ourselves. Log burner looks lovely but wasn't needed as the cottage is kept at a good temp throughout. Would definitely recommend to family & friends - only downside was the parking & although we fell lucky with parking and were able to park on the street, I hadn't realised how tight this would be.

"“A beautiful & comfortable cottage”
Our first time visiting the Lake District."
We stayed at Raglan Cottage for 7 nights and could not have wished for better accommodation. The cottage is warm, homely and spotlessly clean. It has a perfect location close to the Lake and local amenities such as bars, restaurants and shops. The cottage provides everything you may need for your stay and includes an on-street parking permit. I would not hesitate to recommend Raglan Cottage.

"We have stayed in several rentals in this road over the years as it is in an excellent position."
Raglan Cottage was very clean, comfortable and welcoming. All the shops, restaurants cafes and bars you could need are practically on the doorstep, the main supermarket Booths is a short drive away next to Windermere train station. Most bars, restaurants and cafes are operating a walk in service,some you can book in advance, our favourite Italian restaurant, Rastelli, being right at the end of the road ( booking recommended) The lake is a short walk down the hill, where you can pick up a lake cruise( limited routes during the current Covid restrictions and online booking only) We had a very enjoyable few days away, Covid 19 is taken very seriously here and we never felt at any greater risk than at home.

"We are just home from a lovely 3 night stay at Raglan Cottage and cannot recommend the place enough."
The location is perfect and the cottage itself has a lovely warm and homely feel to it. The facilities are excellent and everything you need for your stay is provided. The only advice I would give is to maybe explain the parking situation a little more before arrival as when we turned up we thought we had no space and phoned Sykes who contacted the owners. It wasn't until we got in the property we seen the instructions. We parked in a neighbouring street the first night and was then able to move to the property the following day so it was no issue at all, just a bit of a panic when first arriving with a full car and a small baby. Overall a fantastic holiday and we are already looking to book Raglan Cottage for next year:)

"The location was perfect and shops/restaurants are far closer than we thought as you advertised them as less than 1m/1km - I think this needs to be updated as the first restaurant is at the end of the road (about 50 meters away)!"
The cottage was everything we could hope for and more, really comfortable and finished to a high standard.
The only complaint I have are the single beds could do with new mattresses as you can really feel the springs - my child slept on the sofa the first night until I found blankets etc to pad the top of the mattress. The main bed was lovely and comfortable.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay. There are now new single mattresses in place. Property Owner
