    "We had a lovely few days at Greengarth."

    We would definitely stay again. We couldn't fault a thing. The kitchen was especially well equipped - they had thought of everything, and then some.

    "Absolutely perfect."

    When visiting the family 2-3 times a year, this will be our new base. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us, and it was nice to stay somewhere that pets have not stayed, as 2 of us are allergic to dogs. Very peaceful location. All you can hear are the birds and the sheep. Loved the fly screens (would be fantastic if the owner could email me where to buy these?!!) The kitchen has absolutely everything we needed for cooking a big roast and other meals too. The utility room was perfect. Both bathrooms were excellent, and all the beds and pillows were very comfy. Thank you very much for a fantastic stay, and we will definitely be back :)

    Dear James, Thank you very much for taking the time to post your comments and feedback. These are appreciated always. The Sykes system removes contact details shortly after every stay, so we have no way of contacting you. I imagine this is for data protection. However, here is a link to the company we purchased the insect screens from. We love the fly screens also! https://www.appealshading.com/retractable-insect-screens/ . If you contact the company do mention that we recommended them. The company may give us some benefit which will help in maintaining the insect screens for future guests. With many thanks Ian Property Owner

    "Beautiful lodge, well appointed, luxurious Egyptian cotton towels (I used to be a textiles buyer)."

    Garden didn't seem as big as the picture, lodges a bit closer together than I expected. Very wide range of kitchen equipment, but I couldn't find a teapot or a bread bin. Struggled a lot with the EV charger, supplier helpful but couldn't get it over the line. Rather than waste time in my short break I just plumped for charging up at Rheged, quite close and easy to use while I shopped and had a snack. Otherwise, I enjoyed my stay.

    Dear Jean, Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to submit a review. Following your visit the EV charger has been retested and was found to be working correctly. We have discovered our local national grid voltage is rising above 253V during mid-day on account of solar panels in this region. The EV charger is designed to disconnect when the grid exceed 253V. This was causing the device to fault. Following this discovery, we have fitted a voltage optimiser lowering the voltage. The EV charger is now working correctly, and has been used successfully by guests. With many thanks Ian Property Owner

    "We spent 6 wonderful nights at Greengarth Lodge over Xmas."

    The property had recently been completely renovated with an ensuite walk-in shower room to the main bedroom and a separate bathroom with overhead shower for the 2 other generous sized bedrooms. As I like to cook, the fitted kitchen was a bonus! It was well-stocked with everything you would need in terms of glassware, dinnerware, cutlery and cooking equipment, plus some basic staple foodstuff. I loved the Bora induction hob and the split level Neff oven. Being Xmas week it was to nice to find a substantial sized fridge/freezer as well as a wine fridge. The area was open plan, bright, and felt very sociable. There was even a well-equipped utility room with an extra sink, individual washer and dryer. Every single room and space was so well thought out with no shortage of storage space. The property was powered by an air source heat pump for the underfloor heating and solar panels on the roof. It had also been refurbished with porcelain tiling through-out, and being a lodge we were concerned it may have not been warm enough. Far from it, the lodge was exceedingly cosy. We walked around in bare or stocking feet the whole time. My only request to the owner would be brighter lighting in the rear 'quarry' bedroom! The views from the large picture windows across Glendowlin valley were a delight. We'd definitely recommend Greengarth Lodge to our friends and family. A nice touch was the sparkling wine left for us by the owners.

    Dear Glenis, Thank you for your feedback which we appreciate greatly. Following your feedback we have added two bedside lights to improve lighting in the quarry bedroom. Prior to renovation, this lodge had a 0.5m air gap under the floor, which is standard design but made the lodge cold and drafty in winter. Our renovation replaced the air gap with a solid floor including 30-40 cm insulation and underfloor heating. The heating system is on 24/7 and has been designed to accommodate the most extreme Cumbrian winters. Each room has its own thermostat and guests can set each room to whatever temperature they wish. Thank you, Ian and Alison. Property Owner

    "We had a very relaxing stay at the lodge."

    This was a stop over on our way to our trip to Scotland. We decided to stay for a few nights to chill before our trip, the lodge certainly helped with this. The lodge was warm and very comfortable. If you wanted to cook, (which we didnt) the kitchen seemed to have plenty of everything, from glasses, pans etc. I enjoyed my morning coffee on the terrace with a lovely view. My husband enjoyed the bath, a long time sine he can actually stretch out without his knees sticking out of the water! The lodge was spotless and with fluffy towels. A lot of thought has gone in to ensure you have everything you need. The only negative is the lamp on the dressing table, too dark to apply make up or style hair. We will definitely be staying again.

    Dear Rosalind, Thank you very much for your comments and feedback. We appreciate the feedback from everyone even if we don't publish a response. So this is just to say that we have replaced the lamp on the dressing table with a better one. Thank you, Ian and Alison. Property Owner

    "We had a wonderful stay at the lodge."

    Very comfortable and well equipped. We loved the position and the beautiful views from the veranda. Things that would have been useful were none stick pans. Breakfast stuck to the pans that were there and took a lot of soaking and scrubbing to get clean! The elderly members of our party had trouble getting in and out of the bath as it’s very high so something to think about. Overall a wonderful stay!

    Dear Billie, Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback and comments which are very helpful. Following your feedback we have provided a new non-stick pan. We had provided two new, non-stick pans at the beginning of July, but it seems they did not last well. The induction hob is very powerful. This new pan should have a thicker base. Turning the hob up gradually will also keep the pans lasting longer. There are two bathrooms. One provides a walk in shower. One provides a bath (with a shower). The bath is a "1800 mm by 800 mm" size with a rim 60 cm above the floor. Thank you, Ian and Alison Property Owner

    Property states no pets but laminated leaflet states. 'Thank you for bringing your dogs? Owner states definitely no pets? This information obviously generated by Sykes Cottages. Owners provide eco detergent but only 1 dishwasher tablet and no supplies for washing machine. Surely this is Sykes responsibility. Would definitely use lodge again but feel that Sykes need to up their game.
