Reviews

Ideally placed in Grasmere village and close to bus routes. Apartment is well equipped, very clean and spacious. Also each bedroom has en-suite. Our 2nd visit to this apartment and would definitely use again.

Mr R,

Lovely accommodation, well presented, clean very spacious and well equipped. Good location. Would highly recommend Spinners.

Mrs M,

We had a perfect stay at Spinners. The cottage is delightful, clean, well equipped and perfectly situated for hikes. We travelled without a car and went on four wonderful hikes that started right outside the cottage. The welcome pack is very extensive and the owners have really thought of everything. We loved our stay and highly recommended Spinners!

Ms N,

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, spacious, well equipped and in the most perfect location! We honestly couldn't have asked for more and we really hope to return.

Mrs J,

We really enjoyed our week in 'Spinners'. It is spacious, cosy and very well appointed, in a great location. Little things like having a parking space and (3) smart TVs weren't part of why we chose it, but ended up being very welcome - especially when the February rain was hammering down!

Mrs P,

Good location,comfortable bed,well equiped kitchen. We found the hob a bit odd, it was turning itself off when cooking on a high setting.

Mrs C,

This is a very spacious and well equipped accommodation. It is very comfortable and centrally located. The kitchen has good quality appliances. All the furniture is very comfortable. The accommodation is spotlessly clean and the welcome pack was a thoughtful touch.

Ms B,

Great location in Grasmere. Very comfortable, very clean, well equipped with sensible provision of items such as washing up liquid, tea-towels, clean oven gloves, dishwasher tablets, etc. Appreciated the t-bags, coffee and biscuits!

Mr T,

I highly recommend this cottage. It’s location is brilliant, quiet yet part of a lovely community that is easily accessible to lovely walks and public transport if you need a break from driving. The cottage is spacious and very homely. A lovely holiday retreat.

Ms S,

Spinners is a very comfortable and well equipped apartment in the centre of Grasmere. Beds were very comfortable and lack of noise makes for a good nights sleep . Lots of places nearby for coffee and meals. Lots of walks from the door

Mr K,

A lovely cottage in a lovely location.

Mr S,

Lovely apartment. Comfy beds and sofa. Ideal location.

Mrs M,

Lovely accommodation in a beautiful setting. The kitchen was really well equipped complete with washing machine/dryer. The location was superb and the village was quiet at night (a concern was noise from the restaurant downstairs but we never heard it once). The bedrooms were really big with plenty of storage and nice comfy beds. Having off street parking was a plus as well. I couldn't improve upon this property, and the price was remarkably low compared to other places we have stayed.

Mr D,

Lovely apartment. Very comfortable beds and very well equipped.

Mrs B,

A lovely, spacious apartment for a short stay, located in the village. Ideal for shops and walking.

Ms T,

The only problem we had was getting TVs in all the bedrooms and Lounge to work. The instructions for the TVs were good, however most of the remote controls had something wrong with the batteries. We bought our own batteries for the lounge TV remote control. All the remote controls needed checking and cleaning inside. At least two remote controls had batteries leaking chemicals they were that bad. I did complain in a e-mail to Original Cottages but got no response. The dreaded work by painters outside the property at the time of our visit only causes minor in convenience in the end. Overall we did like this property very much, found it nice and comfortable and would certainly wish to go back some time.

Mr M,

This cottage was great, we went in quite sceptical as we normally avoid apartments, but this was excellent. The set up meant the kids were able to keep to themselves if they liked, and they had fun playing hide and seek in the sprawling set up. We wouldn't think twice about staying again.

Mr B,

Cottage is really good in terms of the size, bedrooms and location. We loved it.

Mr B,

Comfortable and homely cottage. Excellent location. Very responsive and friendly team member when I had to contact them whilst there.

Mr W,

On the whole fantastic value for money and well equipped apartment in a super location really enjoyed our stay

Mrs N,

The layout of the apartment is quirky and fun and is surprisingly spacious inside. The quality of the kitchen and its gadgets is excellent.

Mr J,

Loved the apartment, very spacious and cosy. All equipment is high end. Bed was very comfortable. Location just perfect. Would definitely return.

Mrs R,

Very well equipped and lots of room with comfortable settees and beds.

Mr B,

Good cottage. Quirky design (beams in bedroom). Comfortable beds and very well equipped. Has night storage heating which is not easy to get at the right level - and I imagine that fans will be needed in summer as the cottage will pick up the sun all afternoon. Location fantastic and 100 metres from the centre of Grasmere. We had a great short break here in December 2023 - and really enjoyed staying in the cottage - and also in Grasmere.

Mr P,
