Reviews

A lovely clean cottage in a pleasant location but could be so much better with updating and outside maintenance.

Mr L,

Lovely few days at Greenheys cottage. It location is excellent. The cottage is well equipped but a little outdated. We had problems trying to turn the heating off on what has been the hottest weekend this year!

Mrs C,

Great base for walking and Grasmere is a lovely village with lots of interesting shops. Really cosy house, warm and comfortable we had a great family Christmas there with lots of walks and evenings in the cosy living room playing games and watching films.

Mrs W,

A very comfortable house, in an excellent location for exploring the district. Ideal for our family reunion weekend!

Mr H,

The location of this property was ideal for the local shops and for hiking and overall we found it very comfortable and clean.

Mr H,

Very clean and everything you needed. Much bigger than expected and a perfect location. Some parts a bit dated but overall a fab base for the week.

Mr S,

Lovely home. Nice location. House has everything you need.

Mr Y,

This is a delightful property! Lovely quiet, convenient location and clearly much loved. We were very comfortable overall and settled in quickly.

Mr B,

although warm and comfortable, thought that it could benefit from a make over - dated the garden seemed over grown and needed attention the waste bin was emptied, but the recycling bin was almost full - probably christmas period limited collection

Mr C,

For location the house is a great place. Simple to walk to cafe's and restaurants and also start local walks from the doorstep. For comfort, the unit could do with a upgrade. In winter we struggled to heat up the house (other than the lounge which has a gas fire - old type but works wonders)

Mr F,

What a lovely house in a brilliant location. Plenty of space, comfortable and clean. We did a few hikes from our front door as well as there being great cafes, pubs and shops (particularly the gingerbread shop) and Wordsworth's grave on the doorstep. A fantastic stay!

Mr S,

Location

The village has a large selection of restaurants, bars, and shops for you to enjoy, and don't forget the world-famous gingerbread shop which has been producing award-winning delights since 1854. The village is the perfect location to explore the rest of the Lake District National Park it has a fantastic bus service on your doorstep.

In the words of Wordsworth, “Rest and be Thankful” as you are in a little piece of Heaven in all seasons.
