Lund

Lund is in a wonderful lakeside location and generally well appointed and comfortable.

Many of the issues reported by other guests persist. However, reporting them to Sykes involves wasting valuable holiday time communicating with a booking bot and repeating one's booking number, exact name and nature of complaint multiple times only to be completely ignored. I reported essential issues Friday pm and finally had some sort of intelligent response by Wednesday late afternoon with our departure due Friday morning. Must make sure never to book a property managed by Sykes again.

Fantastic location, beautiful property and very reasonably priced.

Kitchen utensils and glasses needs restocking. Hand wash could have been provided. One of the dining table chairs is broken. Air fryer still had food from previous guests. Freezer needs defrosting as one of the trays doesn't open. Overall I'd say it's an incredible place, absolute gem, just needs to be cared for with a bit more love.

An amazing location with wonderful views.

The property is generally well equipped and all the appliances, heating, wifi etc functioned properly. Some small areas for improvement given the price e.g. hand soap in the bathrooms, matches for the fire, a 'smart' TV in the lounge, and fix the broken sink in the downstairs loo but we had a great stay and enjoyed some great hikes! For EV users there is an instavolt charger in Windermere at Booths supermarket.

The property was simply amazing!

Loved the layout and style, every bedroom was exquisite, and the view and location overlooking the Lake was to die for. Didn’t use the log burner as we didn’t need it. The only issue we had was a sticky balcony door but that was hardly an inconvenience. Highly recommend this property and we will certainly be returning. Thank you.

Lund was beautifully presented, spotlessly clean internally, and very well equipped with quality bedding, laundry etc.

. There were a few very minor maintenance items,( faulty blind cord, protruding screws, chipped crockery.) but nothing of any significance…. Perhaps worth leaving a comments book for these to be noted? There were a couple of points for improvement though:- On arrival the property had been left unvented and for the first couple of days we really struggled to expel the overpowering cooking smells of the previous occupants. Also in need of attention is the green mould on the balcony flooring. Yes, it is North facing, and overhangs the lake, but it really does need pressure washing. Other than this, we were happy with our stay and would return.

Great location with the most spectacular views however a few issues try as we might we could not get the heating to work thankfully the towel rails heated the bathrooms sufficiently as did the log burner as it was July.

Only 3 logs with very little kindling and no matches on arrival felt a little mean. Also a lot of lose floor tiles mostly in the main bedroom en suite bathroom and kitchen area needs sorting and re-grunting. Also outside balcony needs jet washing as it was a little slimy however we had a great time as everything else was great very comfy lunge area and the beds were very comfortable we would stay here again if we were ever in the area.

We stayed in a one bedroom cottage in the same location last year and enjoyed it so much we returned to the three bedroom cottage this year and brought out adult children.

The location, view, wildlife and shared spaces are all fabulous. The kitchen is well equipped and the fridge freezer big enough for 6 people. Beds were comfy. I would have given this cottage 5 stars but for the bathrooms. One of the upstairs bathrooms needs re-grouting and although it has been mentioned numerous times in previous reviews the downstairs bathroom has dirty grouting and the shower does not drain. Even though we limited ourselves to short showers and rolled up towels as a dam it still flooded leaving a paddle to the loo. We emailed about this and a small issue with the kettle whilst we were on holiday and to date have still not heard anything back.

Appalling service.

This is an expensive property and our third stay here. We reported there was no heating on arrival (this was apparently unknown but the pile of 5 portable electric heaters dumped just inside suggest otherwise). Despite an email and several phone calls and promises of a maintenance person nothing happened. I’m unwell, having chemotherapy. I was cold, spent the evenings in my winter outdoor coat, and had to go to bed in thermals and a sweatshirt. The electric heaters were inadequate for the large open plan space and had no timers. Several times we had to return from a trip out to turn them off for safety. We asked for some firewood and no one got back to us as promised. Also the dishwasher didn’t work. This was a known issue to you. We were told the owner had ‘elected’ to replace this rather than send maintenance round, but it couldn’t be delivered until day 11 of our holiday and no other date options were given and no set time. Given that I’m immunocompromised and it was so late in our stay, we declined to be interrupted. I had booked the stay on the understanding that I was unwell and not to have anyone come into the property unless it was a dire emergency. This is because I am unwell, rest a lot, and have to air and clean the contact surfaces if anyone does come in. We were cooking all our meals in the property as I was too unwell to eat out. The lack of a dishwasher was therefore a major inconvenience and I would not have booked a property without one. I made clear during our stay that I expected compensation for the lack of basics, namely central-heating and a dishwasher, as this lack was not consistent with a 5 star expensive holiday as advertised. The oven thermostat is faulty and the downstairs bathroom extractor doesn’t work. We reported these last year, but nothing has been done. We had to buy oven and meat thermometers to avoid food poisoning. The property was superficially clean, as in the cleaners did their basic job. They told us they steam cleaned the floor after complaints from the previous guests. However , steam cleaning does not remove ingrained actual dirt. Everything that touched the floor got very dirty. This is a problem when you have a dog. The downstairs bathroom floor was mouldy - not want you want when you have impaired immunity. And the balcony furniture was dirty and covered in algae. The place clearly needs a deep clean. Overall there was a disappointing lack of care, cleanliness, communication with Sykes was appalling, promises were not followed through, and we await an offer of compensation. If we do not feel you have acted on these comments we will consider further action. These issues seriously affected our holiday, and given my ill health, this was a desperately needed break that didn’t deliver.

The property had stunning views but the cleanliness and lack of maintenance let it down.

We had no heating upon arrival. The dishwasher was blocked with rancid water. The floors were dirty, the curtains and towels and bed linen were not very clean. The downstairs shower pressure was low and the hand basin had no hot water. We had 3 logs for the fire one of which had already been burnt. Overall we had a lovely stay as we made the best of the location and views we have stayed in various locations in the lakes over the years and I don’t normally feed back but felt it was necessary on this occasion. It’s not a cheap stay and as it stands not worth the money being charged. Hoping the feedback is used in a positive way to revamp the property as it’s a great location with breath taking views.

We had a wonderful stay at Lund with the family.

I was very pleasantly surprised at how lovely the house was. I would like to revisit as we didn't have enough time to do all that we wanted. I had read some reviews on the house which were worrying me but we found the house to be very clean, warm & cosy. The views are stunning across the lake. My husband enjoyed feeding the birds from the decking. There was a nice welcome pack with tea, coffee, jam, milk etc. There were logs for one fire. No toiletries. The downstairs ensuite sink did block like some other reviews had said.

The cottage has lovely lake views … the cottage was clean the beds were comfy but unfortunately we were cold in the cottage the heating was under powered for the size of the property also the hot water wasn’t very hot in some of the en-suites the downstairs bedroom with the en-suite needs the shower area re grouting it looked shabby in areas.

Beautiful accommodation with an amazing view up the lake.

Perfect for wildlife spotting and enjoying walks straight from the house. A couple of minor things- no access to cleaning cupboard which was locked (brush hoover and mop would be helpful), radiators in main en-suite and at the bottom of the stairs both have a slow leak.

Absolutely beautiful very clean property we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay

The downstairs shower floods as water doesn't drain away quickly.

Dishwasher door and plinth do not fit properly. Otherwise a lovely holiday destination

Needs a few things fixing but was a lovely stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Lund.

The rooms are spacious but cosy and they all have amazing views of the lake. We found the property was very clean and well equipped. We really appreciated the hamper of handpicked local produce. Excellent place to stay. Would definitely recommend!

This is our fourth stay at Lund and we just love it!

Unfortunately things wear and deteriorate. There were many lights not working and saw on feedback that this had been mentioned months ago! No scissors, cutlery wasn’t clean and sink and bowl need a good clean.

The location of the cottage was ideal: we loved the deck and the view of Windermere.

It was open and bright, and modern whilst keeping its traditional charm. We’d recommend it for these reasons. Unfortunately, it wasn’t cleaned properly before we arrived. The floors were dirty, and there were cobwebs in the windows and on the ceiling. Many of the towels were stained. It would also be helpful to provide guest soaps, etc. in the bathrooms.

Our second stay.

Location is wonderful. Condition of the property has deteriorated in 12 months. Removal of welcome pack seems a little churlish.

Absolutely loved our stay in the beautiful property of Lund in Far Sawrey.

It provided us with all we needed and in a stunning location on lake Windermere. We were planning our next stay there even before our current holiday was finished. Beautiful, very comfortable and memorable.

Loved the property and the amazing views over Lake Windermere were breathtaking!

We would definitely recommend this beautiful house to our family and friends and wouldn’t hesitate to return.

This property is worth the money due to the fantastic views, it’s a little worn I’m sure when it was first done it was amazing but all now looks a little tired and could do with some love.

Having said that we would stay there again for the location and spectacular view up the lake

Lovely property in a fantastic location.

.,,Unfortunately we needed a visit from the property maintenance for the Central heating to function. The first visit was a fob off, insulting our intelligence and requiring a return visit to find the REAL problem and a THIRD visit to fit a new part... NOT very impressed...Not as we would normally expect from SYKES ( I see a third party Property Maintenance company " Lakelovers." was the interface with residents )........ALSO the downstairs shower drain was completely clogged with hair causing a flood into the bedroom.... I decided I would unblock that myself - - you're welcome !

We absolutely loved this property, the location was second to none, the accommodation was perfect for 6 of us.

The beds were really comfortable and the linen was of a very high standard. We appreciated the call from Sykes on our first day checking if all was fine, we mentioned one maintenance issue that was attended to that afternoon. We unfortunately broke the low glass lamp shade (on my husband's head) that wasn't hanging centrally over the table and when this was reported Sykes were very professional and understanding. There were a couple of minor cleaning issues and a bit of wear and tear but this is understandable in a property that has high levels of holiday let occupancy. Thank you! We will definitely return!!

Lovely cottage everything was just as described perfect for a quiet get away

Lights are not working Paint peeling in bathroom Grouting on floors Boundary Railing on car park bucked and damages which encourages people of the ferry to park on the car park spaces…very in inconvenient when travelling with a disabled child…

This beautiful cottage absolutely made our holiday.

The situation is perfect, as was the accommodation After a few long slogs of walks, it was an absolute pleasure to get back and feel cosy and warm, looking at the spectacular view across the lake. Every single thing about this property was superbly thought out, from the really useful welcome basket, to the simple yet super comfy furnishings, fully tiled floors so you’re not worried about the mud from the day, and spacious bedrooms - each with that amazing special view!! Great kitchen, which was really well equipped with absolutely everything you might need to whip up that evening meal. I’d certainly love to return, and have already recommended to some friends and colleagues. Well done indeed to the owners. Thanks for making it a such a really special holiday.

We loved the accommodation, spacious, bright and well equipped, comfy beds, clean and the most spectacular views from all aspects, I wanted to move in!

A couple of areas need a little tic in the bathrooms but nothing major, just general wear and tear, I would also agree with other reviewers that a sign is needed by the 2 parking spots telling others that its private parking for Lund as people did park in the 2nd one on occasion. Would love to book again but we have 2 dogs now and they only accept 1 doggy!?

We have been staying here for a number of years now at Christmas.

It really is a stunning property. We met the 'handy man' on the date of our arrival who was fitting a part on a radiator. Very nice man. The cleaners do a fabulous job - immaculate ! A couple of things need doing: the sinks in the ensuites are really slow drainers, no light in the fridge, the mirror light didn't work in the big bathroom. There is a problem with the drainpipe at the front door. When it rains it floods down. The inventory needs updating as it doesn't correlate to what is in the kitchen. A few bits need adding/updating in the kitchen. Tiny details but thought worth mentioning. We had a wonderful week.

Fantastic location The details need to mention washing machine and the dishwasher has too long a run time.

Apart from those minor issues it was brilliant. Buy your ferry tickets in advance from Kendal council.

The property location beautiful and as expected there were parts which were tired and attention I found the cooking items very poor.

Any there was a total lack of cleaning items - quarter bottle washing up liquid 3 dishwasher tablets I had to buy kitchen cleaner to leave property as requested and clloths. Stay a couple of times a year in high rated cottages in lakes and this is the only one lacking in cleaning items. The pans and certain crockery items in cupboard had to clean before able to use. But overall the property is beautiful and would return. Private parking signs should be erected as people had parked in Lund spots. Couple of times in Lund spots to get ferry on foot up to 6 hours on one occasion fortunately one of our party only stayed for first weekend.

There was absolutely anything we would be able to complain.

The property is just perfect. My friends and I have had the most amazing week in Lund cottage ever. Roomy, comfortable, every thing we needed for our stay. The views form the cottage rooms, landing and kitchen is simply outstanding. Little add to other customers: there are complimentary washing up liquid, toilet rolls in every bathroom, washing up tablets etc but only complimentary. It will not be enough for a whole week stay for the whole group of people. Please take some your own with you to avoid unnecessary trips to shops etc. Also there is a lovely wood burner in the cottage for your own logs use. And I personally wish I would know there will be regular visitors as Swans, Ducks, Otters under the balcony and I have packed up some goodies to treat them all. :) :) The whole stay was little a bit like fiery tale to be honest. Lovely place. Thank you ever so much for having us. we will be defo back. xx

The stay was brilliant just the Mattress was a bit uncomfortable but not like a couldn’t sleep it would of been nice to maybe have a Amazon Fire-Stick because the normal Tv was shocking

We had a lovely stay in Lund.

The location and views across the lake were amazing. We will definitely be looking to book Lund again. The only thing that could be improved is the maintenance of the cottage. We found a few things that appeared to need fixing including lights not working and some skirting underneath the dishwasher that kept falling off. The tiles in some areas and some of the paintwork seemed ready for some touching up as well but that’s just a minor point for such a lovely cottage in such a great location. We had an issue with a velux window that was stuck open when we arrived and someone came out within about an hour and fixed it which was great. Thank you very much.

We had an absolutely brilliant 3 day break here.

The location was just perfect and the cottage was spot on. Beautifully clean and had everything we needed. The lake was lovely and warm for us too, it was like we had our own massive swimming pool! The views we amazing and the lovely welcome hamper was well received. We will definitely be coming back to this cottage in a perfect location as we really enjoyed our busy days out but was lovely to come back to a peaceful and tranquil area of Windermere.

Absolutely amazing stay in an unbelievable location, only thing that could have been improved is cleaning of the window frames(alot of spiders dead and alive around the windows and the balcony could have done with a jet wash other than that it was an amazing stay

2nd time here, simply fantastic.

.

Amazing location, we’ve walked passed this property many times so knew the location was breathtaking.

Very roomy, plenty of space for 6 people to be together and have time alone if they wanted. I’d read recent reviews about cleanliness so was a little dubious as I’m a clean freak but we were pleased with how clean this property was, we could smell cleaning products when we walked in. I like that! The drier didn’t work, that’s my only negative. I like to keep on top of washing when I’m in this country and I struggled getting everything dried for a family of 6. I paid a premium for Lund as it was school hols, in a 5 star property everything needs to work, which is why I’d not rate this a full 5 stars. I’d definitely book this property again, please get the washer drier fixed owners.

Lund certainly has the ‘wow’ factor with magnificent views over the lake.

The welcome pack and bottle of milk were great and much appreciated. We were really lucky with the weather and enjoyed sitting out on the balcony and dog walking along the lakeside. We didn’t have any trouble parking though it was clear it could be an issue at busy times when the queue for the ferry blocks the car parking area. I didn’t give full marks for comfort as there were only two, two seater settees, the beds were wonderfully comfortable the property was lovely and warm and there was always plenty of hot water. I knocked a point off ‘facilities’ as they need a little renovation, the floor tiles were loose in one bathroom and all needed redecorating. My husband is a keen cook and prepared a wonderful Sunday roast for us, he found the oven temperature was inaccurate, and a couple of larger pans would have helped. Overall we had a great stay at this beautiful property and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it, if you are lucky enough to go do take a plentiful supply of bird seed as you will have a chorus of expectant visitors every morning!

The property was beautiful and extremely clean, as for location you can not fault this 1 absolutely outstanding.

We all had a wonderful week! It was lovely to be greeted by the geese , ducks and swans every morning! Would 100% recommend staying at Lund property and will definitely be revisiting at some point!

On arrival the property appeared fine but on further inspection cleanliness was definitely a problem which was very disappointing as I had read before booking other guests had commented on the standard of the cleaning and I mentioned my concerns to Sykes as we were bringing a baby and was assured that these issues would be addressed.

The floor downstairs was particularly dirty and the Hoover provided was tangled with hair and did nt work properly and the mop provided was filthy. There were several other issues including the dryer only blowing cold air in the washer dryer, water coming from under the kitchen tiles , the shower and radiators not working in one of the bathrooms. We were offered to have the property recleaned however as we had only just unpacked after a long journey we declined and did the cleaning ourselves. The location of the property is stunning however due to all the issues and how our complaint was handled I would definitely not recommend to anyone.

What is not to love about Lund.

The accommodation suited us perfectly for a family holiday where we celebrated a special birthday in this beautiful location. We were wowed as soon as we walked through the door, and the facilities and cleanliness did not disappoint, while the hamper and some milk in the fridge were very well received. A lovely quiet side of the Lake with very easy access via the ferry (£1 per passenger) into Windermere itself. Highly recommended.

Lovely property, the pictures don’t do it justice.

Beds were really comfortable, best that I have slept in away from home. Property was very clean, modern and the views were amazing, not only within the main living area but on the stairwell also. Good base for seeing the area.

In my opinion this place is the best property available for a beautiful view of the lake and mountains.

I have no complaints during our stay here.

We were not happy with the property and don’t feel that it was worth what we paid for it.

While the views were stunning sadly the house appeared tired and unkept. We have taken many photographs to show examples around the property. Even simple things like pans ( unusable due to non stick scratched off) no fire wood on arrival and empty pepper grinder on the table! The house has a feel of a study centre accommodation/ student accommodation rather than a comfortable family space.

This is a fabulous property in a fabulous location as you can see from the photographs, unfortunately we arrived at 1700hrs on the Friday night when Storm Arwen was at it’s worst.

There are three bedrooms of which we used two hoping that friends could join us for the Tuesday night in the third bedroom. That is a large room with lovely bathroom and velux window. We had a quick look in that room and got on with unpacking, and I lit the wood burner and turned up the radiators looking forward to our evening meal. About 1830 the power went off and was off until late Sunday afternoon. No central heating no lights no internet very iffy mobile signal and no running water as it is pumped, flushing the toilets was done by a bucket of water from the very nearby lake. After a very wild night where hundreds of trees came down, one of which wrote off my two month old car things could not get worse, or could they? The following morning we looked in the third bedroom and found water and debris in the bathroom and a gap all the way around the velux window (we were told later by the roofers that the window had been blown the wrong way round) I wedged the window the best I could to minimise the incoming rain and reported the damage to Sykes. We made the best of the week we cooked two meals on the wood burner which I managed to keep going by using the offending tree resting on my car until power was restored. Obviously our friends couldn’t stay and people staying the following week had to be cancelled. We were having problems getting a hire car and the owners said we could stay an extra couple of nights at £105 per night (most generous) as they couldn’t get anybody else. We managed a hire car and got home, I then asked for compensation starting with their price for two nights, this obviously didn’t go down well but then I received via Sykes the most unbelievably insulting email where the owner accuses us of opening the velux window! I ask anyone reading this review: Would you or anybody you know enter this bathroom on probably the wildest night of the year and open a velux window and how would you feel if you were accused of doing so. What I do know is if that window had been open, even a little, it would have been very noticeable on that wild night but if it was closed but not locked I would not have noticed and it wasn’t my responsibility to check. If it had been left open by the previous guests that is perfectly acceptable, we have stayed at cottages during covid where we have been asked to open windows before leaving. The responsibility for that window being unlocked or faulty is not down to any guests. Beautiful property, you can form your own opinions about the owner.

Fabulous cottage!

Unfortunately needed to clean the sink and bowl before use, the floors were filthy, you could tell a mop had been over them but they were really dirty, the mats at both doors were sodden and smelled dreadful. No scissors or champagne glasses.

This is the third time we've stayed at Lund, compared to the previous stays the standard of cleanliness had definitely dropped.

The tables were not clean, sticky to the touch and the cutlery and cooking equipment was not cleaned properly, we had to wash everything (I even found mould in 2 of the saucepans) and wipe down all surfaces in the living area. The toilets and bedrooms were clean though. There was firewood provided but unlike our previous stays there was no matches/firelighters/kindling.

The accommodation at first glance looks clean, but a closer inspection did raise some concerns.

The cutlery needed washing as did some crockery, the seat mats were not clean. The biggest concern was how cold the floor was, I would recommend low level underfloor heating as my feet got very cold in the evenings. It would be of great benefit if greater emphasis was made to keeping the road in front of the parking bays clear of queuing traffic. The accommodation is in a lovely, relaxing location and we did enjoy our stay, but thought it may be beneficial to provide the above feedback.

We have moved our holiday now to May 2022 so we have not had it yet

Fantastic location, stunning view!

A very well appointed holiday property. Only a few negative comments: 1. The floor of our shower needed a proper deep clean (I can send photos if you wish - downstairs). 2. Change of towels mid-week would have been nice, in view that tumble dryer on washer/dryer failed to work. 3. Iced up freezer. Overall a great property, but question the quality of the floor cleaning and bathrooms. Would recommend a deep clean on the showers/bathrooms every couple of weeks, if possible, but difficult with change overs in the holiday season. Maybe on a 2 or 3 week rotation? Would we go back, most probably?

This was a lovely surprise from my husband for my 30th birthday.

We had an amazing time. The view was so good!! You could never get bored of this. Nice and quiet, very relaxing atmosphere, just perfect

Best holiday house I have ever stayed in.

Beautiful and so convenient for Bowness

This holiday was for my 50th birthday.

..it totally exceeded our expectations...wow!!! Will be back...cannot put into words the views...you have to stay here to appreciate it. Amazing..as the saying goes you only get what you pay for...believe me this will not disappoint. GOOD TIMES ❤ xxxx

We had a wonderful holiday with the house being everything we wanted it to be.

Comfortable for all of us with amazing views, even somewhere to keep our little kayak. It was lovely to wake up every morning and pull back the curtains to see the water and the mountains, sometimes with the cloud down and sometimes with some sun peeping up behind. The pub at Far Sawrey was walkable as was Bowness over the ferry and it was a lovely drive to Ambleside, Coniston and beyond.

The cottage and it’s view are fantastic and we loved being on the “quieter side” of the lake.

We wondered whether being so close to the ferry would be noisy or annoying but it wasn’t. Other than returning and finding someone parked in our spot (for hours) it was actually convenient being able to see how the queue for the ferry looked and being able to pop over the lake to walk into Bowness-on-Windermere. The only suggestion is possibly putting up a visible “private parking” sign? The little basket of tea, coffee and local treats was a lovely touch - thank you! It was also very useful to have a few dishwasher tablets, soap, dishwasher liquid and washing machine detergent to start off with. Overall, we loved our stay!

Our stay at Lund was our third visit to Mitchell Wyke.

We have stayed in Macan, one of the one-bedroom properties on two previous occasions - one being in mid July this year. The location of all of the properties with views over the bay are fantastic. Lund is particularly special as it is oriented with views north along the length of Windermere. We booked Lund to stay with family, but COVID-19 related issues meant that we visited just as a couple with a dog. We felt rather decadent having the whole place to ourselves and wished that we could have shared it as planned. Nevertheless it lived up to expectations with the stunning views really being something very special indeed. The inside of the property is immaculate and well equipped, we couldn’t think of anything that we would have wanted in addition. The only omission was sunny weather every day! It was the rainiest August week! The exterior of the windows needed a clean and the balcony could have done with a pressure wash - something we also noted with our visit to Macan earlier this summer, but these are only minor gripes and not issues to complain about. The only real downside to any of the properties is the proximity to the Windermere Car Ferry, while convenient for trips to Bowness-on-Windermere, the queue outside does create problems accessing the parking spaces. Drivers either do not see the (faded) ‘Keep Clear’ markings on the road, or they ignore them. Many times we had difficulty leaving or arriving. For some reason there are people who also park in the marked parking spaces too. We had to ask people to leave so we could park in our clearly marked parking spaces! While this is irritating, inconvenient and causes anxiety (and is noticeably much worse in school holiday time than earlier in the summer), we would not let this stop us booking again in the future, the views (especially from Lund) are spectacular. An added bonus worth noting is that you can access the water from the properties. We brought a paddleboard with us and while one of us messed about on the paddleboard in the bay, the other could relax on the balcony with a glass of something nice. A fellow couple staying in one of the other properties had brought a kayak with them and they were doing the same. We haven’t booked for a future visit but we do hope to be back in the future, it is a gorgeous location.

Only problem was people queueing to use ferry blocking our parking space

We had a fantastic week at Lund where the views from the property overlooking Lake Windermere were stunning.

The location was perfect for enjoying all the lake district has to offer and right next to the ferry across to Bowness. The cottage was clean and very comfortable and the additional bonus of a welcome basket of local produce was a lovely touch. Our week stay at Lund was from the 8th to the 15th of November and as you would expect at that time of the year quite cold. The central heating system alone was not reaching the set temperature and therefore we found the property quite chilly. My advice to anyone booking to stay at Lund in the Winter months, is to arrive with a good supply of logs as you will need to use them along with the central heating to keep the place warm. We would definitely return.

Perfect location, stunning scenery and comfortable living space.
