What our customers say about their holidays

  We loved the fresh cake and prosecco with dog treats - this was a really lovely suprise.

  The property overall was fine although we hadn't realised that there was no windows in the main living area so we had to hang out in the bedroom if we wanted a view - and that was limited by the trees. The property heated up well - this was needed since it was jolly cold while we were there. However there were no logs for the log burning stove - we brought some up with us incase this was the case - but if you advertise a log burner and say fuel is included you should provide logs. We tried to get in touch before our holiday to find out if logs were provided and simply couldn't get in touch with Lakelovers - I tried on many occasions and eventually left a message for them to get back to us - still no reply. Very bad customer services - will try to avoid Lakelovers in future. If there was a real problem I have no confidence that we would have got any sort of response from them. We saw a few rats scurrying around outside the property and there was an alarming russling behind the sink so i think the owners need to address the rat situation.

  Wisteria is a stunning cottage, just as beautiful as the pictures.

  We had lovely gifts on arrival, even something for the dog which made us all feel very welcome. The furnishings and fittings are high quality and tasteful. The bed and bedding hotel standard. The cupboards well stocked with everything we could’ve needed. Phone charging either side of the bed was really appreciated as were the usb/charging ports downstairs. The upstairs is a big beautiful space with great views. And then there’s the big garden with the brook running through with places to sit, you have your own little piece of the lakes. The perfect place to relax. The downstairs clever and varied lighting options make up for there being just the door and the upstairs makes up for that for natural light. It was a little walk into town which could be a problem for some, it wasn’t for us. There are a few steps down to the house from the parking area which would be an issue for some for unloading the car but we managed ok. We are very likely to book again if we’re heading to grasmere. Highly recommend.

  We stayed for a week, early October 2023.

  Weather was a bit iffy but we still had a fabulous time. The cottage is set just on the edge of town with magnificent views of Helm Crag. We were able to have breakfast in the garden by the fast flowing stream on the days the sun came out. All the eateries and pubs of Grasmere are within walking distance even with a brolly also the Yan and Travellers Rest on the outskirts of town are very close. The cottage has great areas to read / relax and the tv has Netflix etc. it’s a 5 hour walk from the cottage the to the top of Helm Crag, then along the top to the back of Easedale and finally back through the valley. Awesome views throughout this walk, then you can enjoy a g&t from the cottage garden and look up at the magnificent view to where you have just been

  Wanted a quiet get away without all the family and this was a perfect choice.

  The property was finished to a high standard and was clean and tidy .The kitchen was small but well equipped . We loved sitting looking out the bedroom window which afforded lovely scenery all be it obscured slightly by the trees. The gardens which had several seating areas were well maintained affording lovely views to the hills and countryside beyond. Grassmere is about 10 minutes walk and there are also a few inns nearby. I would say that it would not be suitable if you have any mobility issues .I had a slight leg injury at the time and found it difficult to walk back from Grassmere and also negotiating the steps and gravel path to the parking area of the cottage . I would recommend a stay at this cottage for its tranquility and location.
