Mr Potter
October 2020

“An ideal restful getaway; we were so comfortable.”

The apartment was well equipped. The IKEA kitchen utensils were appreciated.

The apartment was well equipped. The IKEA kitchen utensils were appreciated. We would definitely be happy to return. The location was ideal for us with so many wonderful walks nearby. Only 2 very minor criticisms - tricky to set the shower to optimum temperature and a cosier lamp would be nice in the living room.

Mr Shariff September 2020

“Great location for exploring both lake District and yorkshire dales.”

Clean and cozy apartment. Would definitely stay again

Mr Stainthorp September 2020

“The flat is really well situated so we were able to get quickly to many different areas of the Lakes and North Yorkshire.”

The accommodation was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable and we had a relaxing break. The kitchen was well equipped but it would have been good to have some Pyrex dishes for the microwave. This was our second visit and we will consider using this flat again next time we come to the Lake District.

Mrs Brennan-kersey August 2020

“Lovely apartment set in an old mill, right on the river.”

Modern simple furnishing, well equipped kitchen. We traveled as a family with 3 children (7,3 and 6 months) and found the apartment spacious and safe for children, great location with a nice restaurant/bar on the doorstep and short drive to supermarkets, takeaways, and bakery. Was a good base for exploring the Lake District, Windermere only half hour away we also visited Keswick, Ambleside, Aria Force, lakeside, Kendal amongst others. Would definitely consider staying again

Mr Pye July 2020

“Very pleased with the apartment we had the middle floor which had everything you needed for a self catering holiday, good location for the lakes and surrounding area, washing machine was OK but the drying facility on it is poor as it requires over two hours just to dry damp towels, that's my only gripe but would book again as the place is really great for the price you pay no real complaints.”

Mr Kemp February 2020

“The 'caretaker' was excellent (lived across the road) - friendly and couldn't do enough to ensure we had a good time.”

The property was spotless.

Mr Hopewell September 2019

“Comfortable apartment in a great area to visit the south lames.”

Good food available at the Crooklands Hotel, 2 minutes walk, and the Punch Bowl, 5 minutes drive.

- Mr Hopewell, September 2019
Mrs Hadfield August 2019

“We have loved it at Crooklands 2.”

It’s is home from home, everything is provided and thought of. It’s a fab location to explore the Lake District (Windermere is 25 min drive) and Morecambe bay (Silverdale is a 20 min drive). The RSPB nature reserve at Leighton moss and Morecambe bay is brilliant and very close by. Loads to do for children within a 10 min drive. Large Asda 10 mins away for a bit of food shopping and the local bakery at Endmoor less than 5 min drive up the road does amazing sandwiches, cakes and pies. The Crooklands pub/ hotel which is a short walk also does lovely food. We will be back!!

Mrs Routledge July 2019

“Great location, worked out well got our family of four visiting family in Kendal.”

It was nice and appreciated that the accommodation had some basics like washing powder and salt and pepper everything help when you are visiting from Canada. The host was really friendly and helpful including offering to help dry our washing as the dryer was not working. Overall we would recommend this accommodation to others.

“Desparately need a break after a difficult year.”

Searched website, found the flat looked good value at v short notice. Really nice flat. Tastefully decorated and furnished. Well equiped. Lovely location. Well situated for where we wanted to visit. Traces of damp in main bedroom. Water pressure made the shower head difficult.

- Mr Jarvey, September 2018
Mr Griffin July 2018

“We booked 2 Crooklands House as a last minute getaway and we could not have been happier with the accommodation.”

Great location for exploring the both the Lakes and the Dales. The flat itself was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The family had a great week thanks to Sykes and Crooklands House.

- Mr Griffin, July 2018
Mr Barker June 2018

“The cottage was well presented, clean and had all the equipment we needed.”

The were some small niggles but hardly worth a mention, noisy kitchen tap. Bathroom shower head holder needs tightening, so that it holds the shower handle in place when on full pressure. We had a great time at the cottage and found it very well positioned between the Yorkshire Dales, the Lake District and the sea at Morcambe. We thought it was especially nice that all the neighbours were friendly and asked if we were ok and if we needed anything and were very helpful with advice. A big plus.

- Mr Barker, June 2018
Mr Preston August 2017

“It was a nice comfortable cosy apartment.”

Central to nearby towns so easy to travel.

Crooklands Apartments

These three apartments that have been beautifully refurbished from an 18th century, semi-detached water mill, in the hamlet of Crooklands in the South Lakes, 6 miles from Kendal and 5.5 miles from Kirkby Lonsdale. These spacious apartments have been created within the mill building which is next to a river and each occupies an entire floor with its own private entrance. Furnished in a contemporary fashion, each apartment has open plan living with well-equipped kitchen, dining and sitting areas and all have a woodburning stove which is perfect on chilly evenings to enjoy and relax. Two bathrooms have baths which are ideal for a soak after a day’s exertion while the ground floor apartment has a wet room. The contemporary dining areas all have quality, individual styled dining table and chairs and the tasteful, comfortable soft furnishings are also all slightly different in each sitting area, still keeping the quality modern feel. All apartments share the lawned garden and there are two patio areas with seating, one of which is directly by the river where the mill wheel was once housed. In addition to the garden area the ground floor apartment also has a generous private patio, perfect for enjoying an alfresco meal. Next door is a pub/restaurant and the village shop is only one mile away. These apartments are close to the attractive town of Kendal, often referred to as the gateway to the lakes. There is much to see and do here from Kendal Castle and the Abbot Hall Gallery to visiting the array of shops and eateries with festivals throughout the year. Kirkby Lonsdale is a small but pretty bustling market town with the infamous Devil’s Bridge and beautiful river walk with Ruskin’s steps and vista by the ancient church which will reward you at the end of the walk by the town. There are also the local historic houses of Levens Hall with world class gardens and topiary and Sizergh Castle; both have eateries with mouth-watering fare to tempt you. This area is a walkers’ delight and is also extremely popular for cyclists. The coastal villages of Arnside and Silverdale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, are both worthy of a visit. These quality stylish apartments are perfectly positioned to easily explore the Lakes, Yorkshire Dales, coast and estuary and are ideal for family and friends.
