• "We love Beck Steps 1, having stayed there 3 times."

  It has everything we need for a lovely holiday. Communications before arrival with Sykes Cottages was very good. The cottage was spotlessly clean on arrival with many thanks to the housekeeper for this. The furnishings, bedding and towels and kitchen equipment are excellent. The location is wonderful and we are always sad to leave this lovely cottage. So much so that we've already booked again for 2026!

  The cottage was very clean & cosy, couldn’t fault anything during our stay! We would love to come and stay again. Thank you for a great stay, we had the most amazing week in the Lakes!

• "Another delightful stay."

  Everything is comfortable, clean and well thought out. There is a spirit of real calm about the little place. I am disabled with arthritis and a very deformed spine which means I can’t stand up straight, and I manage beautifully there. My only problem was trying to lower the blind in the front room, which was probably due to my inability to reach up. The stairs are steep and would be problematic for many people with mobility problems but I managed them very well. I love this place and it is wonderful to step out of a stressful world and sit by the window and watch Grasmere for a while. Thank you to all concerned.

• "We're at this cottage now and wanted to point out a few things that are substandard: -On arrival someone was painting the windows so we couldn't park properly at the back."

  -There are very few glasses and cups and some are cracked. -The cooking equipment is dirty or broken and some key items like tongs are missing. -The dining table is chipped and there are no mats. -The outside table and chairs are rusted and dangerous. -The washing up brush is dirty and broken. Please see pictures attached. I've paid £790 for a 'luxury' cottage and don't feel it is. Is there any scope for part refund please?

• "Superbly located cottage."

  This was our second stay and have booked again for next year. Bed is super comfy and the kitchen is well equipped. Onsite parking is also a big bonus. The bathroom is super with its big shower and sumptuous bath however let down by the quality, number and size of the towels provided. Bath sheets would make such a difference! Soft furnishings and rugs starting to show wear & tear but overall another very enjoyable and comfy stay.

• "Gorgeous little cottage in a fabulous location."

  Super comfy bed and lovely bathroom. Kitchen well equipped. However the soft furnishings are tired and shabby and long overdue an upgrade. The sofa and arm chair are so old and desperately in need of either reupholstering or preferably replacing. We really wanted somewhere to just relax in front of the fire on an evening after long Lakeland walks but it was impossible to get comfy. When we arrived at 4pm it was already dark and the underfloor heating wasn’t on so the house was cold and felt unwelcoming. There were no instructions as to how to put the underfloor heating on. With a slate floor this is imperative in these temperatures, it took hours to warm the cottage up. Otherwise it needs carpets. There were quite a few cobwebs in the cottage which although clean gave the impression of neglect and added to the lack of the welcoming feeling I had expected. in all we had a good break in grasmere but ended up cutting it short and coming home early as we missed our home comforts.

• "We stayed for 4 nights last week."

  Great location. Beautiful cottage, warm and cosy and spotlessly clean too. It was very well equipped and had everything we needed. Very comfortable bed with quality duvet, pillows and bed linen. The bathroom was perfect for us both with huge bath for me and large shower for my husband. However we both would have preferred a bath sheet, not bath towel. We would definitely book again as it was perfect for places to eat out and the bus stop right outside the door. The only tiny negative was the very worn out information sheet, which also needs updating. Logs and kindling for the fire can be bought at the Co-op or at Barney’s just around the corner.

  Cottage was very clean and ideal for a couple. Very comfortable bed and great pillows. Large bathroom with huge shower and beautiful free standing bath. Toilet is very high for those of us vertically challenged! Just a few touches to make the customer feel valued would improve the experience ie a small welcome basket or even just a couple of bottles of water on arrival. Replacement of the outside rusty chairs and table is required and some welcome information thoughtfully put together rather than a tatty sheet of A4. The wainwright books and games cupboard provided were great and really appreciated. Overall a lovely little cottage in a gorgeous village and would certainly recommend.

• "This was the second time I have stayed at the cottage and both stays were excellent."

  The cottage is small but beautiful and well equipped, comfortable and peaceful. I am disabled with arthritis and rather limited mobility. My husband drove me up to Grasmere but I stayed on my own, and I made my own way home on public transport using railway assistance. Everything worked well. The one thing which might be a bit daunting for someone with mobility problems is the steep staircase, but I found it quite manageable if I took my time. I was on holiday. The slow and thoughtful ascent and descent was all part of the zen like quality of the stay! The setting suited me perfectly. I don’t drive but excellent buses stop very near the cottage, linking Keswick and Kendal. Other bus links and tours are easily available. Grasmere itself is lovely, of course. I found everything I needed locally in easy walking distance and was never short of a place to sit and have a cuppa. My son came to visit one day and was impressed by all the vegan offerings available in the village. I even managed to walk up to Allen Bank one day, which was a beautiful experience. Sitting where Wordsworth once sat and seeing my first red squirrel was something I’ll never forget. I thoroughly recommend Beck Steps for a couple or anyone wanting a solo holiday. It is a cottage with charm and comfort which does wonders for the soul!

The cottage would benefit from a more detailed pack about the compliances, Wood Burner, facilities, walks etc. I think a few more logs could have been left, we literally only got 3 which were gone on the first night! Enjoyed our break and would recommend as a small holiday cottage for two. Nice and cozy

  A couple of comments to improve:- Seat cushion in leather chair needs re-stuffing as quite uncomfortable; bulbs need checking as several not working (light on lounge windowsill, bedside lamp and extractor fan bulbs) other bulbs flickering (bathroom and bedside lamp). Saucepan drawer in kitchen needs sorting - cluttered with an excessive number of pans! No available cupboard or shelf in kitchen to store food items ie cans, jars, bottles etc. Larger towels would be nice especially with such a lovely bathroom to enjoy! Basic welcome tray with a few teabags/coffee and pint of milk would be lovely especially when arrival time is not until 5pm.

  This is a lovely small cottage in the centre of Grasmere village. despite bring in the centre it is very quiet as it has thick walls and good double glazing. It was clean and comfortable and the bathroom and kitchen facilities are good. The minor things that could easily be sorted are - put some sort of holder for bath things next to the bath, and have the leather armchair in the living room re-stuffed as it is really uncomfortable! The large double bed is very comfortable. The cottage is well situated for a holiday in Grasmere and if, like me, you don't have a car it is perfect as there are lots of shops, cafes etc in the village, excellent walks and a wonderful bus service right on the doorstop.

  Everything was comfortable and well thought out. The shower was glorious, the bed very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked, with everything beautifully clean. I utterly loved my time there. I was on my own for most of the week. My husband drove me up but had to leave at the weekend. I am disabled with a deformed spine which leaves me almost bent double with mobility problems. I walk with a wheeled walker. The one thing that had concerned me was the stairs, and when I saw them I thought ‘uh oh, here we go!’ They are steep with a curve. But I found them solid , with steps of a good width and after the first day I became cheerfully adept at mountaineering. On thing I would suggest is that a small hand grab rail at the top of the stairs would be reassuring and would help all sorts of people, the older ones, pregnant ones or even the ones who have had one happy pint too many!, without looking like a disability aid. As an older disabled woman without a car the location was perfect, with local Co op and easy access to the whole of Grasmere and buses on the doorstep. To sum up, the whole experience was lovely, lovely, lovely!

  Maybe a little more explicit instructions for the rear parking would have helped, but that was very quickly resolved with a phone call to Mike. Another pleasant surprise was the fact that the property had a dishwasher. We didn't recall this being in the particulars, therefore well worth adding in this detail for future customers. The level of finish and quality of the property was exceptional and an absolute credit to the owners. We particularly enjoyed the underfloor heating on those cold morning starts. The cottage provided us with a perfect base, for what was a really relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable break to start 2023. We hope to pay it a visit again. Kindest regards, Craig & Johanne Stones

  Grasmere was idyllic. Just a couple of things that would make the stay even better for the next guests.. The sofa and chairs were not very comfortable. I did see this in other reviews so would support that. The owners definitely need to invest in some new comfortable seating, especially after a long days walking! The cottage would also benefit from another cupboard above the table in the kitchen to put some bits away. There was no space at all for food storage. Finally it would have been good to have more than 1 towel each for the week and a hook in the bathroom somewhere to hang a bathrobe. The little patio could also be featured in the photos online as we thought it was a really nice feature!

Two very very minor suggestions - a clothes airer / line of some sort (it has a washer but then nowhere to hang clothes indoors when its raining) would be handy, and the luxury bathroom is great but would probably take our own "bath sheets" in future (towels provided were fine but the largest is a bath "towel" and personally like the much larger versions) .

• "This is a very good, period style, Lake District cottage in the centre of the village."

  It is a great location for walkers as there are many walks directly on your door step. There is also plenty restaurants within walking distance and many other local amenities. The cottage is great for a couple and is spotlessly clean. I thoroughly recommend it.

• "Perfect cottage in a great spot in the heart of the village which is exactly what we wanted."

  It meant we could park the car & leave it while we did all the popular walks. The facilities in the cottage were great and the WiFi worked a treat which was one of our needs. Worth noting that the property did have a washing machine despite an agent from Sykes telling us it didn’t, a real bonus! We plan to come back in the future!

  Plenty of eating places close by, gorgeous breakfast in Greens Cafe just a few doors away! Would recommend this place to everyone. Thank you for a lovely break away.
