  • "An amazing holiday let that we would definitely return too."

    Clean, well equipped, extremely well presented and views to die for. Best holiday accommodation we have ever stayed in

  • "Stylishly furnished with plenty of cooking utensils."

    A couple of possible improvements would be larger bath towels and some hand soap in the kitchen and upstairs bathroom.

  • "On arrival the house was stunning all top fixtures fittings overall beautiful place and views, there was no welcome pack which was a little disappointing for the price, my main concern was the cleaning, the dishwasher was full of dishes/cutlery all dirty, my first shower the tray filled up i had to stop the shower and remove the drain it was full of hairs and dirt, i left this out for my stay as i wasn't cleaning it, a cleaner kept turning up while i was out and parking in my allocated space so i had to wait for him to leave and then move my vehicle later so i wasn't blocking someone else's, my dog dropped a dog biscuit down the back of sofa when i removed pillow to get it there was all sorts under there."

    This is our second stay at the lookout only issue we had was there was no hand soap in the bathrooms and there was quite alot of dog hair so a little more attention needs to be provided to the cleaning

  • "Absolutely beautiful with outstanding views,the cottage was immaculate (and I’m fussy ) right on the seafront so it was so quiet and a really relaxing holiday."

    Lovely to visit if you want to switch off from life, just open the bifold doors and relax. The only downside is I don’t cook on holiday and it was really hard to find somewhere to eat as the local pub and chip shop only served at lunchtime. The Ski bar on the caravan park is highly recommended,

  • "We've wanted to stay here for a while as we've stayed at properties along the front before and we saw this property being renovated."

    It didn't disappoint! We loved the views and the birdwatching from "The Lookout" It's got really good fixtures, fittings and furnishings, very comfy sofa & chairs. well stocked kitchen tools, pots & pans. Great parking, right at the front of the property. A bit of constructive criticism would be to put the heating on the timer for when guests arrive, it was turned off and was very cold when we arrived, it took some heating up. Also just a little welcome pack of milk, coffee, tea and maybe a couple of biscuits for arrival would have been very welcoming as we had a rushed day and it would have been nice to catch our breath with a cuppa before going shopping. But the washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets were helpful as were the sponge/cloth, but no tea towel provided which was a shame. We will definitely be back as we had a great stay!

  • "Fabulous property, ideally placed."

    Everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Perfect home from home. Conservatory an added bonus, could spend hours sitting and watching the changing tide, skyline and birds. Wonderful stay, and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

  • "Fantasic place to stay, view from the lounge and the conservatory is outstanding like an ever changing picture."

    The look out is well equipt with everything we needed for our stay. Only one slight gripe maybe a sign saying mind the step in the conservortory as my wife and i did both go "A over T" because of the step.

  • "Lovely property, view was amazing."

    Sun room was the highlight. This is a very small place and we arrived on the Saturday but didn't bring cash, the post office opens on the Monday so you might want to bare this in mind. There was a helpful book but the contact number is out of date so that explained why we got no reply when there was a problem with the heating. We still had an amazing stay.

  • "Lovely cottage, great views and walks."

    Dog friendly beach. Really enjoyed our holiday and would come back.

  • "Everything was great with the house, except for towels- providing one towel per person for a weeks stay is not acceptable."

    I did ask for more towels but was told that one was sufficient because it was self catering and we had a washing machine - has anyone ever tried to wash/dry towels in a day especially in the rainy Lake District. Having stayed in self catering properties in a number of countries worldwide - this is definitely not the norm.

    It had everything we needed and more. Spent so much time in the 'glass house' observatory, sky house... I simply cannot fault this place at all. Hats off to the owners for the impeccable finish they have done to this beautiful little, ( tardis like) cottage. Would so not hesitate to recommend this to anyone. Thank you so much for letting us share this gem. Ste and kim

    The town itself is fairly remote however nice caravan park next door with a good restaurant/café " the ski bar". The local hotel/pub the harbour bar despite how it looks is really friendly. Lake Windemere tour recommended the harbour to go is "lakeside" its only 30 minutes away. The only criticism is my wife wants to buy half the décor from the house :) Thanks
