“Lovely cottage in an excellent location.”

““Perfect little cottage “ quality appliances in the kitchen the only thing ...”

“Perfect little cottage “ quality appliances in the kitchen the only thing missing is a small coffee Machine, Good quality mattresses and bedding In need of some coat hooks downstairs, nowhere to hang wet coats The bathroom gets very steamed up even with the extractor fan on and the window open and is making black marks on the ceiling and window frame , perhaps a more efficient extractor fan needed , but overall, we really enjoyed our stay

“What a gorgeous holiday house!”

Admittedly, one I might not have booked based on previous negative reviews but I booked late so had little choice and went for its location. Am so glad I did - yes the location is perfect close to central Grasmere but on a quiet lane where walkers pass starting their treks. On the doorstep are walks to Easedale Tarn, Helm Crag, circular lake walks and Silver How. But the cottage itself is also so lovely, tastefully and recently decorated, small but perfectly formed kitchen with fancy oven and enviable cutlery draw. Mini welcome packs of tea bags, dishwasher tabs etc provide the basics. Generous lounge with log fire we didn’t need in balmy August. Two lovely bedrooms with sumptuous bedding and heavy curtains and a modern luxury bathroom with lots of hot water. The heating works well (ok it wasn’t that balmy). Highly recommend and will come back if I can! Yes there’s no cheese grater but the co-op sells grated cheese and frankly there’s more in life to worry about! Bring your kitchen basics and an oven tray if you need one, and enjoy this gem!

“Location location location Great little cottage - really enjoyed our stay.”

Only minor gripe is that the WiFi could be a little quicker. Would definitely come back

“Acorn Cottage was well appointed small but lovely kitchen and Miele appliances, etc.”

comfortable furniture and cosy. Clearly was a loved property of the owner at one point, but feels very uncared for now and tired via the holiday rental market. Exterior in need of paint and general maintenance. Front 'garden' area is in need of weeding and general tidying up, lots of weeds and generally neglected. The garden furniture has been cleaned but is unappealing and not somewhere you would want to sit. Needs proper maintenance and care. Basic items missing from house - eg baking tray and cheese grater. Also nowhere to hang coats. Not somewhere we would stay again. Welcome pack from Lakelovers is akin to that of a budget hotel and smacks of tokenism. Would be reluctant to book again via Lakelovers.

“Unfortunately our stay at Acorn cottage was not what we hoped for.”

On arrival our 1st job was to remove a rather large pile of dog poo from outside the French doors, presumably left by the previous occupants dog. The outside garden furniture is unusable, covered in green moss. The wooden floor in the living area was very dusty. Our biggest disappointment was the bathroom. Both shower heads trickle water out and the water is only just warm. The toilet brush is vile and cannot believe reading back on some of the reviews that this and several other of the above has already been pointed out. Our family have been visiting Grasmere for years but unfortunately none of us would return to Acorn Cottage.

- Clare, June 2024

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues that you experienced with dog feces. We take all comments on board, and will pass on your comments to the relevant teams. Thank you- The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner
Barbara June 2024

“So we booked this cottage to be local to Grasmere and the surrounding fells to hike.”

Wonderful location for this . Lots of privacy , set apart from nearby houses. I had previously read on TripAdvisor that this cottage lacked basic amenities and supplies . But we were pleasantly surprised to find it had everything we needed for a cosy Lakeland stay . There is a hairdryer , contrary to the cottage description omission of this . Plus appreciated welcome pack and kitchen cleaning products. Lovely wood burner used twice after wet days on the fells which quickly warmed us and dried our clothes. Good sized shower room/ bathroom . We would use this cottage again. What could be improved is maintenance of the outside furniture : needs sanding and painting . Plus bed protectors and duvet needs cleaning as these were stained . I'd also add coat hooks by the kitchen radiator/ cupboard. Thank you .

- Barbara, June 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay and the walks in the area. It is lovely to see that the property found the property had everything that you like. We take all comments on board, Thank you- The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner
Daniel December 2023

“Great location for the village.”

Wasn’t enough hooks to hang coats etc nowhere to put muddy boots . Shed to front but full of paint etc. shower temperature would not alter. Bring your own condiments . It’s a lovely cottage just not as many nice finishing touches as some of the other places we have stayed in

- Daniel, December 2023
Edward October 2023

“A couple of rolls of toilet paper and salt and pepper would be appreciated.”

The bathroom window has mould and a sticker saying please don’t open, this was the same 8 years ago when we last stayed, couldn’t it be fixed. The skirtings behind the bedside tables were filthy. When we arrived furniture was pushed in to a corner. No accommodation specific instructions I.E. what to do with ash from the fire. Oven instructions. Bin on the road being used by others for dog poo and leaves, perhaps should be kept on the higher level.

- Edward, October 2023

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are sorry to hear about all the issues you encountered at the cottage, unfortunately we weren't aware of any of the issues you had as we could have resolved them to make your stay more comfortable.

“Can't fault it only wish earlier check in days gone 4 o'clock”

- Robert, October 2023
Joanne October 2023

“Lovely cottage.”

Fab location for less than a minutes walk into Grasmere Village. My only comment would be the very steep set of stone stairs up to the cottage might be an issue for some people. It rained whilst we were there and they were a bit slippy. Lovely stay would deffo go back

- Joanne, October 2023
Kim September 2023

“Property needs attention, windows didn’t close upstairs and one said do not open, mould on bathroom ceiling, damp on walls on landing a bedroom and a ceiling.”

No garden and tables in front not able to sit on one broken and one needs rubbing down and repainting. No where to hang any coats or put boots especially if wet. Bed in front Bedroom was not made up as double as asked for.

- Kim, September 2023
Albert September 2023

“Very conveniently situated for the village yet quiet and secluded.”

Lovely sitting room and excellent well equipped kitchen. Bedrooms comfortable. Our criticism is the state of paintwork especially in bathroom. The windows and ceiling are urgently in need of attention. Hope this can be addressed soon for future visitors.

Sally August 2023

“Wonderful located well equipped cottage.”

Loved its position in the crags and trees. It felt like being in a tree house. Saw red squirrels which was a highlight. So close to village centre but secluded. Many walks from door. Very rarely used the car. Agree with other feedback that the bathroom really needs decorating. However very comfy beds and excellently equipped kitchen and everything else really top knotch. Especially appreciated the welcome pack.

- Sally, August 2023
C August 2023

“Very dirty-( have photos to back that up).”

Outside furniture could have been cleaned up- scrubbed & stained & protective cover. Light bulbs out or completely missing-ie lounge+ kitchen extractor (again have back up into on that) Damp patches in bedroom & landing. Kitchen utensils are dirty & dusty! Hob filthy & sticky Toaster filthy- previous bread seeds smeared on top of toaster!

Graham May 2023

“Very comfortable cottage in an ideal location, a couple of minutes from the village centre.”

It is very well equipped with quality kitchen equipment, and soft furnishings. Maintenance could be better- light bulbs out, WC cistern not stopping filling, garden furniture ready for the skip. It also needs a folder with instructions about how everything works- yes you can figure it out but the lack of such basic information creates a negative first impression.

Andrew May 2023

“Great location for a Grasmere stay.”

Property a little tied painting required inside and out,windows need replacing,garden furniture is a disgrace dirty full of moss and one chair broken it wouldn,t take much to make this place perfect but my views are the same as previous quests so owners obviously not listening for the prices now being listed the cottages need to be spot on.They should be inspected regularly by Sykes to make sure all facilities are up to scratch and prices adjusted to suit.

- Andrew, May 2023

Thank you for your comments. We will be attending the property to look at the issues mentioned. The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

“Acorn Cottage in Grasmere presents a bit of a conundrum!”

It's evident that the owners spared no expense in renovating and refurbishing the property to a high standard several years ago, with top-of-the-range white goods in the kitchen and quality furnishings throughout. However, time has taken its toll, and the cottage now appears quite worn, with an urgent need for a full redecoration and soft furnishing replacements in several rooms to restore it to its former glory. In addition to requiring a complete redecoration, it needs a thorough spring clean to refresh its appearance. The paintwork, windows and doors are all quite grimy and necessitate attention beyond the customary cleaning after guest departures. If we had our grandchildren with us, we would not have felt comfortable placing them in the stained and unclean highchair. Additionally, the property's eco credentials are less than ideal, as all windows are single-glazed, and prone to being cold and draughty. At the outset of our stay, we discovered that the TV aerial cable was damaged, resulting in no TV reception. We contacted Lakelovers in the morning, and their maintenance personnel promptly replaced the cable within a couple of hours - full credit to them for their efficient response. In the meantime, as the WIFI signal was good, we were able to stream Netflix, iPlayer, etc to our devices. Despite its shortcomings, we found the location of the property to be ideal as it was just a short walk from the charming centre of Grasmere. We enjoyed our brief stay there and appreciated the convenience of having a car parking space suitable for our estate car and being in such proximity to the cafes, bars, and restaurants made our short stay even more enjoyable.

Michael March 2023

“The cottage requires painting inside and out as the windows and main door are showing bare wood and signs of reglect regarding any type of maintenance.”

One of the sitting area chairs need repairs as the wheels on the chair have broken off at some point and this is has scratched the floor over the past months or years ..

Janet January 2023

“Acorn Cottage is absolutely lovely, we had a wonderful stay -our only thought, which did not spoil the holiday by any means, is that it would be useful to have a folder with essential info about the cottage all in one place, as for instance it took us over a day to find the wifi code.”

We would definitely recommend a holiday here.

“Really nice cottage that I would happily stay at again.”

It was clean, warm and comfortable and in a great location just off of the centre of Grasmere.

“Our 3rd stay in Acorn cottage excellent wee break .”

Will definitely be back again

Jean September 2022

“Acorn Cottage is in a lovely location, just on the edge of the village.”

It is cosy and warm and mostly clean and well equipped, and has very comfortable beds. However, 2 of the 3 ceiling lights in the lounge weren’t working, so it was very dim at night. We couldn’t find any new bulbs in the cupboards. The table mats on the dining table are rather shabby. All the windows were dirty. The external downspout from the bathroom, which is next to the kitchen window, is broken, so it splashes the window as water pours down. We couldn’t find a way of contacting the owner or Sykes, to inform them and get these things fixed.

- Jean, September 2022
Laura September 2022

“Book this cottage!”

We nearly didn’t book because of the mixed reviews, but please don’t let these put you off. Acorn cottage is quaint and beautiful, you can’t beat the location - 30 seconds walk in to Grassmere, and plenty of walks for all abilities from the door. You’re only a short drive away from other areas of the lakes for day trips - Ambleside, Keswick. Parking is really no problem - we have a Honda Civic which fit with plenty of room. Outside there are two sets of garden furniture. The garden isn’t secure so stick the dog on a long line. Inside the cottage is sparkling clean and comes with a lovely welcome pack of tea, coffee, milk sachets and biscuits. There’s also a little cleaning pack with bin bags, washing tablets and dish cloth. The kitchen is well equipped with absolutely everything you will need, the living room is lovely and cosy (especially with a roaring fire!) and the beds are very comfy. Heavy curtains perfect for winter and easy to use central heating. The shower is nice and hot after a long day in the fells. It would be a squeeze for 4 people but as a couple or family with children it’s perfect. We didn’t use the Wi-Fi so can’t comment on that, but hopefully you’re thinking of staying there as a holiday and not to work! Get out and enjoy the Lakes. We had a Saturday to Wednesday stay and absolutely loved it, we did so much and we could have done more. TIPS / NEED TO KNOW - Yes, the stairs up to the cottage are steep and not suitable for those who struggle with mobility - Bring a towel to lay on the floor for dirty shoes, there’s a shoe cupboard but limited room - You will need: logs, more toilet roll, washing up liquid, salt and pepper, cooking oil, milk - Tweedies is the best for food and drinks

- Laura, September 2022
Michael August 2022

“The property was superb, centrally located and extremely well equipped.”

The only downside was the lack of WI-FI for the full duration of our stay. The property is advertised as being equipped with WI-FI but a check of prior reviews also noted “issues” so it was clearly still an on going concern and a heads up prior to our arrival would have been good so we could have been better prepared. However the first we knew of the problem was a hand written note left by LakeLovers advising that they hoped the problem would be rectified that day (Saturday 27th August) but that was not the case. There was no further communication from LakeLovers until we chased on Tuesday 30th following the Bank Holiday. We were told someone needed to visit the property to “complete set up” and we waited in for some on the morning of Thursday 1st Sept however, no one turned up. We spoke to LakeLovers again and they, again, confirmed that they needed to attend the property so we waited in again on Friday afternoon for someone to come. This time someone did attend but was unable to rectify the issue. It was still unresolved upon our departure. We specifically booked the property based on the need for internet connectivity as I had work commitments during the week so it did make life somewhat difficult and impacted upon our stay based on our having to wait in for someone to attend the property. As noted prior warning from LakeLovers before our arrival would have given us the opportunity to prepare and to rearrange work commitments and we were also disappointed at the lack of proactivity from LakeLovers regarding what is clearly a long standing issue. LakeLovers also advised that a full case review would be conducted and we would be contacted in due course to discuss further, at this current time we are still awaiting contact and the feedback promised.

John July 2022

“No wifi for duration of stay Day 1: Wifi password incorrect Day 3: “Here’s the wifi password” (you sent me the same password that wasn’t recognised, only with a typo) No that’s not the problem, it’s a password issue “ Ok we’ll get in touch with BT who will call tomorrow” Day 4 6pm: No BT “BT will still be coming tonight” Day 5: BT come: No problem with line or router “We’ll send maintenance man first thing in the morning” Day 6: No one came Day 7: Home Case study in poor communication, not listening, reading from an algorithm, multiple staff members not taking responsibility, terrible customer service.”

Meantime I’m on the phone almost every day, listening to people fob me off, racking up data charges with poor signal anyway, having to go to cafes for wifi to do work. If the owners read this, they should realise they’re paying for a shoddy and unfit for purpose service that still hasn’t resolved the issue for the next guests.

- John, July 2022
Amanda July 2022

“This is a cute cosy cottage with a small but well stocked kitchen.”

and a generous bathroom The property was reasonably clean throughout with a bit of dust behind the bedside cabinets. There needs to be a note not to open the RHS bathroom window as its rotted away from the hinge. And the patio furniture mentioned last year as broken hasnt been repaired. Before booking I would advise people to check the location on google, as the stone stairs to the property are steep, and the parking space is extremely tight.

- Amanda, July 2022
Martin October 2021

“Cleanliness was very poor.”

Dirty sock in the second bedroom (I note that this has been highlighted by other customers).No instructions on how to use the heating, cookers or fire. Found the cooker and fire generic instructions in a draw after a few days, but a summary would have been very useful. A few hooks in the kitchen and bathroom would be useful and at minimum cost.

- Martin, October 2021

Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay at Acorn Cottage. We apologise for the poor level of cleanliness you found at the property. The property was having difficulty finding a permanent cleaner and since this has managed to bringing the standards of cleaning back to a high standard. We apologise for this. Property Owner
Rupert October 2021

“On arrival we had a slight issue with the heat alarm and reported this resulting in a very quick response time from the Lakelovers team.”

- Rupert, October 2021
Zoe August 2021

“The cottage is lovely and cozy but the road was busier then advertised.”

Also the twin beds weren’t made into twins - it was made as a double. We didn’t ring as the kids were fine in the end but it says made into twins automatically unless requested otherwise. The cottage itself needs a new lick of paint - their were some odd patches on the walls. The shower could also do with some mould spray around some edges and maybe a couple of extra towels

- Zoe, August 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that the beds were set up incorectly for your stay. We would have been happy to send a cleaner back to set these up correctly for you for future reference. Since your stay the property has had some paint work throughout. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we hope we can welcome you back again soon. Property Owner

List of issues with the cottage: • Children's beds in the wrong configuration upon arrival • Washer broken when we came to use it on our second day • One of the tall glasses in cupboard was cracked • One cup in cupboard full of dirty water, spilling over us • Large tray in the top oven was greasy and unwashed • One of the outside wooden chairs broken • Pillows in the master bedroom smelt like wet dog Suggestions: • We felt that the bed in the master bedroom was far too small • A grater would be useful in the kitchen • A smart tv would allow connectivity for guest devices • Clothes airer would be helpful

Grace July 2021

“The holiday cottage location is perfect and as listed.”

The house, however is not very clean. The upstairs had not been hoovered and there were collar stiffeners from the previous guests left in the bedroom. The decor is a bit tired in places and the bathroom has quite a lot of mould.

- Grace, July 2021
June June 2021

“A bath mat would have been useful also spare toilet roll.”

In the kitchen a small chopping board would have come in handy. A small carton of fresh milk in the fridge would be helpful after a long journey. All the cottage had been thoroughly cleaned.

“Gorgeous cottage in fab location.”

Very clean and well equipped (I want a cutlery drawer like that!). The only thing that could be improved would be a little personal touch like a welcome package of tea, milk, bread etc. And maybe some more instructions re heating etc.

- Caroline, May 2021
Christine May 2021

“Good accommodation, excellent position.”

Please note when it says parking for a medium sized car. We took my car (Clio) but anything much bigger would struggle.

- Christine, May 2021
Paula May 2021

“This is our second visit to Acorn cottage, all though it was a number of years ago.”

The decor is tired, and could do with a refresh, especially the stairs and kitchen. Appliances in kitchen are of a good standard. The rainfall shower could do with a new head as doesn't come out with the force you would expect. I feel for the money a small supply of wood would have been a nice touch. I love the location of this cottage you cannot beat that. It is a cosy cottage and to he beds were very comfortable, just the thing after a days walking.

GRASMERE

Ambleside 5 miles; Windermere 9 miles; Keswick 13 miles.

Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family has been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century, and Grasmere Lake. Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere, and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
