  • "Lovely place, really comfy and cosy."

    Everything and more you need for a comfortable stay. Lovely, log burner that we didn't get to light as the weather was beautiful late October. Loved it. We will definitely be looking to book again in the future. Possible considerations: the sky light in top floor single room could do with a clean/replacing. Could do with an outside light on the courtyard. There might be one, but we couldn't see it.

  • "Overall, it was a nice place to stay."

    Very well equipped, particularly the kitchen. Lots of towels. Spare bedding if needed. Washing machine and dryer provided (although a clothes horse would have been useful, and would probably save the owner money on energy usage). The listing was somewhat misleading, saying that there were six steps up to the property. There were, but there is also a staircase indoors going up to the accommodation. We had a party member with limited mobility and this was a struggle at times. The smallest bedroom on the top floor had a velux window which didn’t open-it was quite hot because of this. Location is very nice, and the lido is due to re-open next year.

    Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated and we thank you for taking the time. We are sorry to hear you were not expecting the stairs in the property and will ask for this to be made clearer on the listing. We are also in the process of installing a new clothes dryer rack for guests to use and can only apologise that the original does not appear to still be there. Thank you also for bringing the Velux window to our attention, it was previously attended to and found to be working, but it has been re raised with the maintenance group we work with for them to look into. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay at Church View and hope you will think of us again when looking to stay in beautiful Grange over Sands. Property Owner

  • "Plenty of room for the 8 of us,close to shops,cafe,bakery and pubs."

    No welcome note from the owner of the property or contact number if any problems arose.No cleaning products ,half a bottle of washing up liquid ,and we had to buy toilet rolls near the end of our stay.The single bedroom on top floor had skylight window that did not open and was quite uncomfortable to sleep in as the weather was quite sunny the week we stayed ,and quite humid at night,we tried to contact sykes cottages a few times about the skylight but could never get through.The house is over a bargain booze but there was no problem with noise from there, the big issue is that the tesco express practically across the street,had a delivery almost every morning and they were usually around 7 a.m and very noisy,also woken up by bin waggon one morning around 5,30 am didn't have a single good night's sleep the entire holiday.We would not stay again simply because of being woken up so early and so frequently

    Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry to hear that you were woken during your stay by noise from the Tesco store further down the road. This is not something that has been raised before. We would also like to apologise that you did not find the welcome folder that is present in the property. We have checked with the cleaning company who attended both before and after your visit and they confirmed that the A4 black Welcome Folder was in the property during your stay and would have been in the kitchen or lounge when you arrived. This folder includes numerous helpful sections including details about the property itself, recommendations for local amenities, the Wi-Fi password and contact details for both the holiday agents and our handyman who is on call in the event of any problems. We can also confirm that toilet roll, and a spare roll in each bathroom is provided for all our guests and cleaning cloths and dishcloths are left in the kitchen by the sink before guests arrive. We appreciate you taking the time to review Church View and have taken your comments onboard. Property Owner

  • "This was an excellent property to stay at."

    The house itself was lovely and well appointed . The house has the added bonus of being central and within walking distance of all local amenities. We had a marvelous time.

About the location

GRANGE-OVER-SANDS

Cartmel 2 miles; Lake Windermere 8 miles; Kendal 10 miles.

The charming Edwardian resort of Grange-over-Sands is set between the Lake District fells and Morecambe Bay and offers one of the mildest climates in the north of England. Formerly a small fishing village, the introduction of the Furness Railway transformed Grange-over-Sands into a fashionable Edwardian resort. Today, the town has much to offer the visitor including a traffic-free promenade, delightful ornamental gardens, golf courses, brass band concerts and excellent bird watching. Just a short drive away are Lake Windermere (8 miles), the villages of Bowness-on-Windermere and Hawkshead, which still retain the charm and character that has endeared them to so many, and the home of sticky toffee pudding, Cartmel, with its famous racecourse and the L’Enclume restaurant, which has been voted the 4th best restaurant in the UK. Other attractions in the area include Levens Hall, with its Elizabethan Hall and world famous topiary gardens, Holker Hall, Furness Abbey, Sizergh Castle, a National Trust medieval house and gardens, and Conishead Priory, a Gothic revival country house. There is also the 25 mile Cistercian Way which starts at Grange over Sands. Set amidst the southern lakes, the attractive town of Grange-over-Sands makes a superb base from which to enjoy the whole of this magical area.
