“Nice holiday flat”
+Lovely location, great for exploring the southern lakes. Two nice pubs in walking distance. Nice walks in the area. Comfortable first floor flat; very clean; bed was narrow but comfortable; kitchen well equipped. We stayed in October and the electric heating worked very well, the flat was nice and warm, we didn't bother buying logs for the log burner. Plenty of hot water. Communal washing machines available if you need them. Good WiFi. Would stay again as a couple but not if we were 4 people and needed both bedrooms.
−Bathroom had no window and was a bit dingy, probably not very nice if used by 4 people. Ventilation was ok but noisy. Twin bedroom only has a skylight but no other windows, but as we were only 2 people we didn't use it. No balcony or views of the lovely outside area, windows are quite high up.

+The surrounding area was lovely, in general the lakes are a lovely place to be.
−It was advertised as a house, it wasn't it was a 2 bedroom upstairs flat, if I had known this I would not have booked it, my husband is 78 and has mobility issues he struggled with the 2 flights of stairs that was not mentioned, no disability notices on the advert. The place has 6 hangers for 4 people, two door shelves in the fridge missing, I did phone and was asked could I not just pile the food on top of each other in the main compartment, didn't fancy putting cheese, yoghurt next to uncooked chicken. The advert made you think that the freezer, washer were in the flat, no they weren't, they were in an outhouse, that was only accessible by leaving the flat and going into.main court yard. Electric car point not working, was told they were waiting for an engineer, but we could use an electric point that was 3 miles away. All in all quite disappointed with accommodation, unless you're fit with no disability issues it would be ok, but it was still advertised as a house, which does make you think it's an upstairs and downstairs accommodation 😡

“Stay close to Beatrix Potters house”
+Very close to Beatrix Potters home
−It was a 5 minute walk from Beatrix Potter’s home but GOS sent us 30 minutes away for an hour round trip when I put in the route given to me for the address. When we found the property we had driven past it but had not seen the signage. It was very hard to find

“Location with views”
+The setting is stunning. With beautiful views of Esthwaite. Walking distance to Beatrix Potter’s home and a lovely local pub nearby.
−The bathroom needs a little maintenance. Extra fan whines very loadly waking everyone else if you got to the bathroom at night. Also the latch has been replaced with a loose screw which is not handy.

“Reasonably priced accommodation in beautiful grounds”
+Set in beautiful grounds, a close walk to a lake and central for visiting popular Lakes destinations.
−As reviews have said, loud bathroom fan, no numbers or symbols on cooker.

“Exceptional”
+Very good peaceful and beautiful and quiet, but didn’t know about the stairs going up to our flat/cottage , as we’re in our seventies now would have appreciated a ground floor flat/cottage , but next time maybe, onsite farm shop wasn’t , it was 10 minutes drive, hawks head was closer , but overall a very pleasant and enjoyable stay .

“Great stay! Highly recommend! Don’t worry about the red “host” category!”
+A lot, it’s well worth it. It’s like having a 2 bed flat in the Lake District. Very peaceful and quiet. When booking I thought the red line under “host” category would be an issue. It wasn’t! Not at all! It’s self check in. You don’t see anyone but if you need to speak to them they do respond very quickly over this app. Great views and quick 20 min drive from Ambleside. Highly recommend!
−The only thing that I can think of and it’s minor it’s the bathroom fan. But I wouldn’t consider it as a huge minus it just it was bit loud.
