We had a very comfortable stay in this warm and cosy cottage. The beds were so very comfy, better than mine at home! Loved having the log burner for a cosy glow whilst eating in the kitchendiner. Cottage very well placed for sightseeing on either side of the Lake.

Everything you could possibly want from a Lake district holiday . The house was easy to find , clean , quiet & comfortable. The outdoor patio area was perfect for watching the sun go down. Had a great meal in the sun inn , about a 4 minute walk round the corner,

Very spacious well appointed and comfortable . Excellent centre for walking locally and exploring the area

Such a wonderful cottage. This was the 2nd time there and hoping to stay again in 2026. The pond was removed due to complaints. I hope the Newts were taken to a safe place. Highly recommend this holiday cottage.

Lovely cottage, very clean and well equipped, comfy beds. Ideally positioned in lakes. Good access, great parking for 2 big cars. Great heating for this time of year and some good views. Nice meal at the sun inn, very friendly. Can't fault it. Pretty secret woodland garden.

Very nicely appointed holiday accommodation with good facilities attractively laid out. Comfy beds and easy chairs. Well equipped kitchendining. Quiet location but well placed for exploring local Lakeland region. We enjoyed a restful break here, with everything we needed.

Unsafe Property & Zero Urgent Support Truly Unacceptable. Our family booked this property for three nights, but left after the second night due to serious safety concerns. On two separate occasions, we returned to find not only the doors unlocked, but wide open. First time 09082025I had personally and carefully locked both doors before leaving. When we returned, the kitchen doors were wide open. We stayed that night only because we barricaded the doors and had one adult sleep upstairs and one downstairs with the children. I tried to rationalise it as perhaps cleaners arriving early by mistake, intending to ask about it on Monday this was late Saturday night into Sunday. Second time Sunday 10082025 We again left for the day, locked the doors, and had multiple family members witness the locks being checked. On our return, the other door was not just unlocked it was open. The locks work perfectly, so someone was unlocking and opening the property while we were out. We dont know why. Nothing appeared stolen, but the sense of violation, alarm, and fear for our safety was overwhelming. We immediately packed and left. We called the emergency number immediately we advised we were vacating the property they confirmed the cleaners had not attended and they would call back with information. No further support or offer of alternative accommodation. i followed up the next day Monday 11th 2025, urging them to change the locks to protect future guests. I was informed the owner would be contacted and I would have a call back. no call came. Tuesday 12th Aug 25 I once again called and told it was passed on for investigation. this escalation came 4 hours after my second call nearly 2 days after initially reporting this alarming incident. Wednesday 13th Aug 25 Still no contact from Sykes Cottages or their sister company they had passed the issue too Lakelovers In addition to this, we later noticed that PAT testing on the propertys electrical items had expired, which is a basic safety requirement and another sign of poor property management. We originally chose not to post a review straight away, in order to avoid alarming and worrying other holidaymakers. However, given the lack of action or urgency from the letting agents, it is abundantly clear this matter is not being addressed, and future guests need to be aware of these safety risks. Other minor issues Upstairs shower poor downstairs was good. Garden untidy and needs care. Flag uneven lifting. Fridge froze our food. These were minor inconveniences we wouldnt have complained about. Positives The beds were comfortable and the property looked as shown in the photos. Unfortunately, we never got to use the bath due to our early, safetydriven departure. Bottom line We feel shaken, let down, and honestly scared. This property is not safe, and the letting agents showed no urgency or care for guest safety.

Lovely comfortable cottage, very peaceful & excellent for a quiet break. A good position to stay for visiting Windermere & surrounding area. The local pub, the Sun, was good for a drink & occasional meal. The only downside as others have mentioned is the state of the garden, patio & cleanliness of some of the outside furniture.

Cottage was lovely, situation ideal and the only negative was the outside seating space. The pond was full of algae and the steps up to the seating area had loose slate flags as did the patio which in my opinion was rather dangerous so the only alternative was to sit on the drive which was not ideal.

It was so beautiful, surroundings are so peaceful and the garden is just a perfect place to relax

Very nice property Much better than the photos It would have been nice to stay longer

The cottage was spotless with all essentials that you could ever need. Beds were very comfortable as were the settee's. One of the best cottages that I have stayed in. Thank you for making this holiday a most enjoyable week. Regards Ann

We had a lovely stay the only thing I would suggest is that the pond is cleaned and garden area tidied up to make a nicer outside space.

A beautiful holiday home ! Had everything you could have wanted ! Very clean , tranquil and an ideal place for couples to relax.

Nice little cottage, we enjoyed our stay

Great cottage but oven & hob are not good. Hob very difficult to use and slow to heat up. Oven gets too hot and burns everything.

Lovely cottage in a quiet country lane. The pub is barely 10 mins walk and does excellent food. Kendal, windamere etc only 1015mins drive away. Facilities in the cottage were great, rooms v comfy and everywhere spotless. Would definitely stay again. Possibly leave a few more essentials in a basket next time? Coffee etc, just a suggestion as no shop in walking distance. Thanks again.
