  • "A nice enough cottage in a great location for walking."

    Our main concern was the heating. The radiators were not on for long enough to keep the place warm. The log burner was okay when we could finally get it working but difficult to keep going every day. However, we were grateful for the use of the oil filled rad provided which we used to keep warm in the evening. Other concerns like the wonky tap in the bathroom and the flaky decor in the back bedroom could easily be fixed. Otherwise, everything good.

  • "Beautiful cottage in a lovely quiet place."

    As listing says, there's no parking outside. NT car park nearby BUT signs state NO overnight parking. Arrangements for overnight NOT clear and ESSENTIAL. Scribbled note inside cottage pointed us to an option to pay £25 to park in hotel car park. Other than that, we loved the cottage and hope to be back

  • "The owner was pleasant and responsive to our questions."

    Thank you. The cottage is fine and is in a fantastic location. The following points are noted for their consideration. A strong smelling cleaning product was a bit unpleasant on arrival. We had to open the windows. The house heating was controlled remotely and it was a really cold week. The owner did extend the heating when asked but the front bedroom remained cold. The wood burner was strangely ineffective. The plug-in radiator was useful downstairs. Only 1/4 roll of toilet paper was left. Just enough till the next day. Felt a bit penny pinching. We like to cook - while the kitchen was reasonably well equipped there were no large pasta pans (5 litre). Hope this is useful feedback.

  • "We enjoyed our stay."

    No real complaints, but some suggestions: Main bedroom table lamp doesn't work, battery powered weighing scales had no batteries in it, no wooded spoons to stir things with without scratching pans, no non-stick pans, no oven gloves, starter kit set of logs were not dried and didn't burn well, no hooks or clothes horse to dry kit on inside the cottage (hooks in porch - but freezing cold in there), plaster falling off walls in a few places. Shower, WiFi and bed were fab. Overall GOOD.

    Thank you for your feedback. We have replaced the lamps in the bedrooms so these should now be working. We've also made sure there is a good supply of non-stick pans and wooden spoons. The logs we purchase are kiln dried and kept in an enclosed wood shed so should burn well. The airing cupboard contains a rail with hangars for drying wet kit. There is some minor damage to areas of wallpaper that has occurred over the years. I'm glad you enjoyed the power shower and appreciated the wifi. It was upgraded to fibre to the property recently so is very reliable and very fast. Property Owner

    Well equipped & we loved the little back yard which is a real sun trap. The pizza barn on Friday night & the recently re-opened pub were an added bonus. Everyone was friendly & made us feel welcome. Thanks for a lovely week.

  • "We stayed for two nights and enjoyed our stay."

    The beds were comfy, the kitchen was well appointed and the shower worked well. We were out and about most of the time and the weather was a bit damp so we didn't use the garden. We used the TV once and didn't encounter any of the problems others have reported. We couldn't find the outside bin to put our rubbish in when we left. As others have said, the parking situation is a bit odd. We used the NT car park. One thing worth noting for non-members is the ticket machie only takes coins - who carries £8 in coins these days? Fortunately, I'm a member of the National Trust for Scotland, and althought the NTS has a different parking scheme from the English NT, I left the NTS sticker on the windscreen and no-one seemed to mind. (Possibly no-one checked). There is a notice on the ticket machine that overnight parking isn't allowed, which is confusing but again no-one seemed to mind. Is there an official agreement with the car park operators that tenants in the village may park overnight? The instructions for the flat mention a parking space across the road: is this just the bit of road that is slightly wider than the rest, because it isn't marked as a parking space the way us city types are used to! There were freshly painted double yellow lines on both sides of the road and I didn't want to chance parking there.

  • "Cottage in a good location but quite a few issues with it."

    The heating isnt good enough when the weather is cold as the wood burner is very inadequate as back up to the electric heating - it heats the hot water rather than the room. There is nowhere to park free as its now double yellow lines outside the house so non NT members would pay over £60 a week to park in the local car park. When raining the gutter at the rear leaks so there is constant water running down the rear of the house. Could not find the rubbish bin to put away or rubbish and no indication of where it was in details. Television is quite complicated to work I would think if not used to Amazon firesticks. On the positive, the cottage is quite nice, with most things needed to cook with. the double bed was comfy and great for local walks. Wouldnt stay again as I think there will be better ones locally

    Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry that you found the heating inadequate. The heating is on a set programme but we do ask guests to get in touch with us if they would like it on more and we are always very responsive to increasing the heating if required. We are currently waiting for the guttering at the rear of the cottage to be replaced and this should be remedied shortly. Because of the unique location of the cottage parking directly outside can be limited at times, there are signs locally that outline the parking restrictions. The NT car park is only 100 yards from the cottage and a proportion of that charge is reinvested in maintaining footpaths locally which keeps the area a lovely place for walking. Due to the unique location there is no terrestrial TV signal in Seatoller. We have superfast broadband directly to the cottage and rely on Internet TV. We will look at updating the TV instructions to help make it clearer to guests. Property Owner

  • "Lovely little cottage with great access to the Honister Pass and Western Wainwrights."

    Very clean and comfortable. Could do with some good door mats front and back and more logs and a welcome pack would’ve been the icing on the cake. I’d read some reviews about dodgy parking and a grumpy neighbour but didn’t encounter either. It’s a quiet location but would recommend if you just want a good base for bagging some hills.

  • "Thank you again for yet another fantastic cottage booked with your company."

    The location was amazing, key was easy to access. On entering the property, it was immaculate, warm and clean. Exactly as it had been advertised. Gorgeous bathroom with a lovely hot shower. Well stocked kitchen with every utensil a professional chef would be proud to use, resulting in some fantastic meals. Very close proximity to the bus stop from Seatoller to Keswick. A quick 3-minute walk down the lane to a local hotel which doubles as a bar for non-residents. perfect location for in good weather some amazing climbs and hikes within walking distance. We encountered no problems with using the National Trust car park literally 50 yards down from the cottage. One negative comment maybe to be reviewed for future guests the television was confusing to access. After 2 days of trying, we finally figured out it was operated via Firestick which required the log in details sited on the TV screen, this was so tiny we would suggest enclosing all the operating instructions including passwords etc within the welcome pack. Could maintenance also fix the guttering to the rear of the property? It is broken resulting in water penetrating the outer wall which will arise to major damp issues over time. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our time, and would return in a heartbeat as we would with the other properties within your portfolio. We look forward to booking with you again very shortly. 10/10 xxxxx

  • "The cottage is in a beautiful location with amazing views from the garden."

    It says there is parking for one car but it didn’t seem obvious so we parked in the National Trust car park about 50m away as we have National trust membership. But that would cost £8 day per car without national trust membership. The cottage is reasonably kitted out, although the kitchen is a little dated and the sink tap practically ready to fall off. The kettle didn’t work so we resorted to boiling water on the stove. The pretty lower gated garden has amazing views and is the most peaceful place to have breakfast. The patio garden directly off the kitchen is in poor repair and would not suit anyone unsteady on their feet. It would also greatly benefit from some form of weatherproof seating which could be used all year. (We appreciated the table and chairs in the shed for use, but it’s a bit of a faff keep moving them from one garden to the other) All in all we would be happy to come back here and a few minor improvements would make it perfect.

    One 'complaint/disappointment' - there was NOT a 'starter kit' for the log burner as indicated in the blurb, just two small logs left. Luckily I had packed a handful of sticks & matches; purchased logs & kindling. 2) Oven gloves would be a useful addition; my son had to run his thumb under the cold tap for ages. Otherwise brilliant, so handy for the bus service and so close to the many mountains; we did 11 Wainwrights in 5 days !

We found the property warm enough for chilly nights with the heating and the fire as an option. Also the parking issue needs to be spelled out.

  • "The property was over-priced."

    Not sure if you would normally charge almost £1000 a week for a 2 bedroom cottage in the middle of September, or were just taking advantage of the COVID situation. The cottage was functional but charmless and not at all homely. No soft furnishings in the sitting room. Decor more like a Council house circa 1980 than a 17th century cottage. The amount of fuel provided for the wood-burner was mean. My biggest gripe however is the complete absence of any information on how to work things in the property or any information on the local area. We spent a long time figuring out how to watch the tv, my parents or people less comfortable with technology would have given up. You couldn’t actually watch live TV because the WiFi was too weak, so if the description says there is tv, it is not accurate, we were only able to access on demand tv. For some reason, the radiators are controlled remotely, but, given the absence of any information, we had no idea that was the case and had to message the caretaker having spent ages searching for instructions. It would be better for us to be able to decide for ourselves when we did and did not want the heating on.

    Thank you for your feedback and I'm sorry the cottage didn't meet your expectations. Demand is particularly high for the Lake District at the moment and that is reflected in the pricing. Some of our usual soft furnishings like cushions and blankets were removed in line with initial guidance at the start of the pandemic due to concerns about difficulties ensuring these were sanitized between guests. We are looking to reinstate these soon, as things begin to settle down. Unfortunately it looks like there was an issue with the satellite tv during your stay, which our caretaker has highlighted to us. The tv has now been repaired. We always welcome guests reporting issues to us during their stay so that we can fix the problem as quickly as possible. The heating is set to pre-set programme, but we are always willing to adjust this if guests let us know. There is plenty of additional heating in the cottage, which guests can control themselves, including a fan heater in the kitchen, an oil radiator downstairs and the log burner. Property Owner

    Too many for us to do in a week and so we will be coming back. The weather was very wet at times but with the dryer and kitchen heater we were able to get things dry for the next day! It would be useful to have the ability to move the heating from 'summer settings' for those bad weather days but it was still warm enough, and so cosy with the log burner. (Logs can be bought from Seatoller Farm and the farmer very kindly bought them up to the cottage himself in the pouring rain!). This is a remote cottage, but a beautiful drive to Keswick if you need anything so the best of both worlds. Tesco do deliver to the door to make life easy! You can unload the car right at the front door and then park in the NT car park very close by....free for members. This worked well for us. We found the cottage comfortable, and contained everything we needed.....yes the main bed squeaks a lot as someone else noted but it was very comfortable. It is a small cottage for 4 adults and all their walking gear but the location is what sets this cottage apart......Seatoller and the Borrowdale Valley are simply stunning and the walking opportunities are endless. If you love the mountains and just getting out there this is an amazing location.

    Nice and clean on arrival, but a couple of issues that could be rectified. Dishwasher not working, and sign on it looks quite old so may have been broken for a while. Extractor above cooker not working that caused fire alarms to go off when cooking fried breakfast. The bathroom door lock and catch was broken so door did not shut or lock. We did light the log burner 1 evening as it was a bit chilly, but it failed to heat the bedroom radiator like it says it should do. Also I feel the patio and back garden could do with some TLC as they both look neglected and overgrown. Don't get me wrong, we really enjoyed our stay, but we just felt these issues could be easily rectified with a bit of time and effort. Regards Neil Baker ****Owner Response**** Thank you for your feedback and we are very pleased you enjoyed your stay at Littlebeck. The cleaners informed us on the morning of your arrival that the dishwasher wasn’t functioning. The repair company said this was due to a previous guest mistakenly using a laundry tablet - the machine is now working fine. We have replaced the fuse in the extractor fan above the oven and spent this week working to improve the garden now that winter is over. We have checked the bathroom lock and the radiator in the bedroom. Both of which are working. It is worth noting that to heat the radiator in the bedroom from the fire will need to be going for some time, as it needs to warm the water in the system. However, there is an electric radiator in the bedroom if you require additional warmth.
