2-Bedroom Cottage in Troutbeck Reviews

Church View is a beautiful property and its wonderful village location allows easy access to the lakes. It also benefits from sitting a 5 minute walk from a pub in one direction and a shop in the other. The interior of the cottage works perfectly and is both charming and extremely well equipped to a very high standard. The owner Stuart made it very clear that he was always on the end of a phone should the need arise. We had a lovely stay and I would not hesitate in recommending Church View
Church View is a very attractive, comfortable and warm house. Ideal for two couples in one car. Well laid out and equipped. Pretty terrace with lovely views. Good location for exploring the area and excellent pub about a mile away The Queens Head.
Wonderful holiday home, very comfortable beds, great location and facilities. Really enjoyed our stay.
This was a lovely and very comfortable property only let down by the inaccuracy of the parking. Yes, we only had a problem once in 4 days but it needs to amended on the Web site. It should read no private parking but parking is available on the public road area.
Lack of local recycling facility but I feel that lakelovers could take on this aspect. Property was lovely. Only point was the heating & hot water issues but they were resolved & didn't cause a problem for us. The bath is huge & great for the kids but as adults it wasn't something we could use as never enough hot water to fill it. We try to be eco conscious & will usually see having a bath as something we keep for holidays, only really showering at home. Was a shame we couldn't really use it to it's full potential. One room got too hot & we couldn't turn radiator down. Had to open window. Meant to contact the owner who would have resolved I'm sure. Heating isn't controllable at the property, only by the owner. Hasn't put us off wanting to stay again. We loved the place & the owner did everything he could to make us enjoy his home
Fabulous cottage clean and modern. Stunning views and a lovely outside area to take it all in with a glass of wine after a lovely walk straight from the front door. Ideally situated for a walk to the local pub serving great food but the cottage has a well equipped kitchen for dinning in. Will definitely be returning to Church View.
Gerald
We loved staying here and if we come back to the Lake district we're definitely staying here again! Troutbeck is nice and quiet and the Queen's Head is just a 12 minute walk away 10 mins if you're walking really fast because it's dark. We can't recommend this place enough.
Nicholas
The property has been nicely presented and would certainly be one we would go back to if it were not for two things. The hot water only lasts long enough for a short shower, which means if more than one person stays they have to wash in tepid water. We discovered that we could heat more water by using the wood burner in the kitchen, so every morning and afternoon that became a necessary routine. It works as a solve but as a premium listing one would expect there to be ample water with or without the wood burner. The boiler is locked away so you can not get access to change the settings. The second and admittedly small thing was the wifi was very slow and intermittent so a small speed boost would help. All that said the property is otherwise very well located, comfortable and well equipped including Apple TV, underfloor bathroom heating and an induction hob which were nice touches. The outside terrace is a lovely area to relax in, and the cottage is tastefully decorated.
Beautiful comfortable cottage in a quiet spot with paths for walking straight from the door. The cottage has easy checkin and parking. The kitchen is well equipped and all furniture is tasteful and comfortable. The property was very clean and a cleaning pack was provided. There is a lack of up to date information in the cottage. For example there are a number of smart plugs controlling lights that went on and off at odd times that had no instructions. We had an issue with heating and hot water on Christmas Day as this is also controlled by a smart timer that guests do not have access to, meaning we were left with no heating or hot water until we managed to download instructions from the internet and find the override switch. It was at this point that we had to use the woodburner for heat. The fires had not been cleaned and there was no bucket for the ash. Despite these issues, we would stay again.
1 particularly in winter you need to provide an idiot guide to the heating system controls and an urgent contact number in the property. 2 provide an initial wood supply for the log burner advise people to bring their own
Sharon
We had a great holiday and would love to come back. We tried to clean the place before we left and only then noticed the accumulated dust and hair. Vacuum cleaner did not work well and no cloths for cleaning. One of the ceramic rectangular cooking dishes under the sink was badly cracked. None of this spoiled our enjoyment of a great week!
The relaxing feel of the property which was so nicely furnished and well equipped
So impressed by this cottage. Immaculate. Views were spectacular. We picked blackberries from the bramble along the walking paths. A neighbour, J, made us homemade jam. The pubs in the area were wonderful especially the Queens Head. Great food. Good beer. Doesn't get much better than that.
