6.0“Location was perfect - more attention to smaller details would improve experience hugely”
+Great location and views of surrounding countryside. The communal areas for living and dining were a good space and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. The beds were comfy and there was plenty of storage in both bedrooms. Parking directly outside the property for two cars was ideal.
−On arrival at the property in the porch area there was a large pile of bird droppings - this did not make the property look or feel appealing as a first impression - this was eventually cleaned after five days of our stay had passed. Cleanliness could be improved within the property also - some crumbs on the side and small bits of rubbish on the floor. Generally the property could do with a little TLC - the bathroom door didn't lock (which when away with friends was not ideal), there was also a substantial rip in the curtains in the twin room and a dent/hole in the wall. These I feel were major issues. More minor things I would say would improve future stays would be: providing more toilet roll, hand soap and dishwasher tablets as we ran out of these, a bit more information about where to find recycling bins and maybe some information about things to do in the local area and places to eat, Wifi instructions were not up to date/correct which might confuse some people when trying to connect.

9.0“This was a lovely relaxed break for my family”
+I liked how remote it was, off they beaten track. So quiet and just what we needed. The kitchen was well stocked up with all utensils, pots & pans. Beds were comfy as was the sofa. Very cute little cottage with everything we needed. We took our own food shop with us so we didn’t run out of anything. The wash room was just across the courtyard from us, easy and very convenient. We would definitely stay again, so relaxing after a day out walking or visiting other places in the lakes.
−I was not keen on was the outdoor furniture, deffo needs new set. The fire place sticks out quite abit, that needs to be pulled back.

8.0“Sawrey is a beautiful village , sadly for us it rained continuously, but the location is beautiful.”
+We liked the quiet location , and to be able to walk around the village ,and the access to the field
−It would have been nice if a welcome complimentary pack was there eg milk and a few other goods , including shower gel/shampoo . A lot of self catering places do provide . The fireplace seems a bit awkward and protrudes too far into the room , tripped a few times .
