“This cottage is absolutely stunning, everything in the cottage felt brand new.”

It would have been nice to have a starter pack or just a few logs for the fire, the log burner was a massive part of our choice when booking!

“The cottage is in a fab location and was very comfortable for our family of four.”

I think a few minor tweaks would take the property from B++ to an A* - like a rejig of the sitting room layout/furniture, sorting the curtains/blinds in the bedrooms and better ventilation in the bathrooms. I would rebook this property, which is the true test of whether it is a good holiday rental.

“Fab property in a perfect location for Bowness facilities and a great base for the Lakes.”

The property has all creature comforts to make the stay as easy as possible. If anything could be improved it’s perhaps seating arrangements for 4 adults in the lounge, the sofa and one chair are technically OK but a little squashed. Perhaps a large bean bag could be an option then it could be easily moved around without being too imposing/fixed as an item of furniture might. Some of the window openings could be fixed a little as ropes on sash window in front bed are not functioning properly. Fixing the front garden gate to replace missing slat and so that the gate can be locked closed, would definitely be more secure for dogs. These are details - overall everything is great.

Sue August 2024

“We are just back from a 3 night stay and had a lovely time.”

The bed was huge and so comfortable. The cottage was clean bright and airy. My only criticism would be as a dog friendly cottage it would have been nice for the garden to be secure, it did express it wasn’t secure in the description so it’s not a complaint .

Steven August 2024

“I am very disappointed with this cottage.”

Although marketed as being able to accommodate 4 people, it really only has lounge space for 2 people. The TV downstairs did not work so I had to watch the TV in bed which was far from ideal. I did complain to the you but had no response.

- Steven, August 2024

Thank you for leaving your thoughts. We are sorry that you were disappointed in your stay. We do take your comments on board, however, it is not a comment that we often receive. Thank you The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner
Andrew July 2024

“Thankyou for letting us stay in your cottage we had a lovely holiday.”

The cottage itself is nice and homely with all the mod cons,and wifi was great to keep kids entertained on a night. It was very clean the beds were super comfy. We couldn't ask for a better cottage.

- Andrew, July 2024
Trevor July 2024

“Great cottage, ideal for our short stay touring the lakes and surrounding villages.”

Karla May 2024

“We really enjoyed our stay and found the location the be amazing!”

To improve it further, the bedrooms were quite hot so it could do with a fan being available.

- Karla, May 2024
Anita May 2024

“Outside of the property is looking a little tired, flaking paint, old patio furniture.”

Inside the house though was lovely, clean, bright and well appointed with big comfy beds, quality bedding and nice bathroom. The allocated parking space was VERY tight, two out of three of us couldn’t get the car in but the on street parking with the pass used. Oak Cottage is in a great location and a quiet area.

- Anita, May 2024

James May 2024

“We really enjoyed our stay, thank you.”

All as described and perfect for our needs in a great location. In terms of improvements, the bathroom needs a new blind as it has mould growth not in keeping with the rest of a very clean property. The twin bedroom blind has a broken cord which while still operable needs a fix.

- James, May 2024
Andrea April 2024

Beautifully presented and spotlessly clean! We will definitely be back!

There was everything you could wish for in the kitchen and thank you for the little extras. Everywhere was very clean and smelt lovely. Had a fantastic comfortable holiday.

Bernard September 2023

“One drawback was that the windows in master bedroom at front of house did not open at all.”

They are either painted closed or the cable in the sash window was broken. In the heat last week it was very warm and uncomfortable at night. Perhaps provide a fan? Minor points, (i) some of the vertical blinds in the sitting room need repairing, they were out of their connection cables at the bottom when we arrived.;(ii) the outdoor motion sensor night-lighting on front of house didn’t work; (iii) faster internet connection would be a bonus; (iv) provide some ice cube trays in freezer. We appreciated the kitchen care pack and otherwise we really really love the property, it’s perfectly located and perfect size for 2-4 people.

- Bernard, September 2023
Siobhan July 2023

“A well maintained 2 bedroom property close to local amenities.”

It benefits from an en suite shower room and house bathroom all recently installed to a high standard. Modern spacious kitchen with dining table, dishwasher and washer/dryer. Access to front door via steps with outdoor seating/dining, split level secure garden and parking space for small car. Wooden gate to steps in need of minor repair. Mainly used back door to enter and exit the property via a small paved yard fenced and gated. Selection of board games in comfortable lounge. I would recommend this cottage to others.

- Siobhan, July 2023
Iain June 2023

“Lovely house, very clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our week's stay.”

Unfortunately it was exceptionally hot when we arrived and the house took a long time to cool down, likely because we couldn't open all of the windows to let air in overnight which would've helped to cool us all down. Could do with another sofa in the living room as it would be a tight squeeze if there were 4 adults in the room. Aside from that, the cottage is really lovely and we would recommend it, ideal location and really well kept cottage.

- Iain, June 2023

Thank you for your comments. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We will ask our Maintenance team to have a look at the window lock. Thank you. Property Owner
Janet March 2023

“The cottage was lovely with very good facilities and the parking a real bonus so close to the centre of the village.”

The living room could do with another chair or replace the single with a double seater, for 4 adults to sit comfortably without sitting in a row, one had to sit on the foot stool. Otherwise the cottage was very warm and comfortable.

- Janet, March 2023

Thank you for your comments. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We take your comments on board. We hope to welcome you back. Property Owner
Justine March 2023

“Lovely cottage, very clean, good location and parking space a huge bonus.”

Only thing I would change is to have a small sofa under the window. The chair is small and not comfortable. Great access from the back, so didn't need to use the steep front steps.

- Justine, March 2023
Petrina March 2023

“On arrival the cottage was spotlessly clean.”

Small welcome cleaning pack provided (dishwasher tablets, sponge, bin bag). Steps down to property one slab broken and one wobbly so be careful. Street is unlit and outside light doesn’t pick you up until half way down steps so take a torch (one provided in cottage). Living room would benefit from another sofa or chair (one sofa and one tub chair really isn’t enough for four adults visiting unless you all want to be sat on top of one another). Some damp under window which needs addressing. Wooden floor. No logs supplied for wood burner. Kitchen is large and well stocked with everything you could need. Little extras like salt, washing up liquid etc are provided. Tiled floor which means cold feet. Beds are super comfy and both are super king sized. Bathrooms are well thought out and Mira showers to both which are wonderfully powerful. Hive heating so you can program to suit yourself/weather conditions. However, please note that all windows are single glazed sash windows which means in winter they are very draughty and both front and back doors are wooden and single glazed so again very draughty. (Draught excluders for the doors would be a welcome benefit as feet were cold when downstairs and possibly thermal door curtains). We were unlucky with the weather (coldest week in uk of the year) so left early as was struggling with keeping cottage warm downstairs and also building work was taking place directly opposite cottage which meant an early wake up call by builders and mini digger most mornings (Lakelovers/Sykes notified by us and photos sent). The cottage is lovely for a summers holiday. Its location is ideal. You can cut down through the pedestrian part of the road to the Angel Inn in minutes. No outdoor furniture? Too cold anyway but not there should you have wanted to sit outside with your dog. Main garden isn’t totally dog friendly, they can get into next door and mine is no escape artist so they need watching. Parking is great, space is compact but perfectly adequate. We found it better to reverse in so you can drive out. Would we return to Oak cottage? in the summer without hesitation but it the winter months unfortunately not. Downstairs is just too cold and draughty.

- Petrina, March 2023

Thank you for your feedback, your comments have been noted and raised with maintenance. We look forward to welcoming you in the future summer months. Property Owner

Michelle July 2022

“What a gem of a find.”

An absolutely perfect cottage for our holiday. Everything was better than we imagined. We felt right at home as soon as we walked through the door. Exceptional clean, with everything you could need for your break, including a little welcome package for washing up/dishwasher. Fantastic places to eat and visit within easy walking distance. Or via a trip on the river cruise. Everywhere is so dog friendly. Perfect for a getaway.

- Michelle, July 2022
Mark July 2022

“Very good standard and would visit again.”

One of the best we’ve been to! Thanks Right curtain in main bedroom a bit awkward to close but only a minor issue - maybe blackout blinds would help at this time of year Very minor issue - why is there never a tea cosie?

- Mark, July 2022

“We were very delighted with our stay.”

It was very comfortable and cosy for us and the dog. Also they provided a lot more then what was advertised so we were very happy. Great location too! We felt like it was home to home! Thanks :)

Sharon March 2022

“Lovely cottage…a real home from home with excellent facilities.”

Perfect location for all that Bowness has to offer…restaurants bars shops and the beautiful lake itself We will definitely use this cottage again The only negative point would be the car parking space…you really need a small car to use this facility On the whole 5 stars

- Sharon, March 2022
Daniel January 2022

“Thank you for letting us stay in your fab little cottage in a great location, everything we could possibly need was provided, the huge queen size master bed was a bonus and the log burner was brilliant too (stayed Jan 22) The only problems we had were with the showers, the water pressure was poor in both and the shower door was broken in the en-suite shower.”

Would 100% stay again though

- Daniel, January 2022
Alison October 2021

“Second stay at Oak Cottage and we still love the location, proportions and dedicated parking space.”

Unfortunately, the cottage wasn't a clean as last time nor as I would expect from Lake Lovers (happy to provide further feedback if asked). It was also disappointing not to have a small welcome pack - we've always been provided with a few teabags and a pint of milk in the past. Not the end of the world but would have been helpful to be advised of the change when booking (especially as price went up quite a bit after having to change dates due to lockdown restrictions). It won't necessarily stop us staying here again but we will be comparing against other cottages.

- Alison, October 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to see you love this property and we agree, it is in a fantastic location. We are very sorry to see the cleanliness was not up to our usual standards. This has been reported to our Housekeeping manager and the necessary steps have been put in place to make sure the cleanliness standards are maintained going forward. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner
Shaun August 2021

“Lovely cottage in a fantastic location and the most comfortable bed I've slept on away from home.”

The wow factor upon arrival was ruined by a laundry basket full of dirty towels and a toilet with wee and long dark hair in. This was topped off by the small skid mark on the loo seat! Easily sorted, but did take the initial shine off the property and we did report it whilst there. That said the actual property was so nice we would still happily go back.

- Shaun, August 2021

Thank you for your feedback. This is a property that Lakelovers cleans, and we can only express our apologies to yourself and the owners. The matter has been forwarded to the Housekeeping Management . Please accept our apologies. Property Owner

Fiona June 2021

“Excellent location, great for getting out and about.”

Beds were very comfortable. Unfortunately the drain in the bath was partially blocked, resulting in the bath filling up during a shower - leaving scum around the edges, no pleasant. The garden was a great space however it was tired could have had some attention to make it an excellent space. Overall the property was very well equipped and clean but some attention to detail was needed. Overall we had a great stay was a fantastic base.

- Fiona, June 2021

Thank you for your feedback further to your stay with us at Oak Cottage. We have our team on hand at all times, so we would have happily attended to this had we known and ensured this was rectified for you. The owner of the property hasn't been able to attend the property themselves for quite some time due to COVID so the garden is something that will get attention when they have the opportunity to travel here. In the mean time, there is new garden furniture currently on order and our maintenance team are ensuring the garden is made presentable. Thank you again for your comments and we hope to see you again in the future. Kind Regards, The Owner Team Property Owner
Margaret June 2021

“1. Could have done with a shaver socket in at least one of the bathrooms.”

2. Were unable to get terrestrial TV channels in the lounge. However would certainly think about booking the cottage again.

- Margaret, June 2021
Nigel June 2021

“On arrival the cleaning was not done to an acceptable standard The duvet in the en suite bedroom was stained.”

Visible through the cover The patio area was dirty and the furniture tired and require attention. This was referenced in the guest comment book but nothing has been done Seating in the lounge for 4 adults is not easy with one sofa and a tub chair. Parking although very much appreciated was difficult as the car next door was a large 4x4 so luckily we only have a VWGolf otherwise we would not have been able to use the space. Great location and lovely cottage and we really enjoyed our stay. Giving some attention to the points above would turn it into a fantastic cottage

- Nigel, June 2021

Thank you for your feedback. Please accept our apologies, Lakelovers look after the cleaning for Oak Cottage and this matter has been reported to the Housekeeping Manager, as this falls well below our expected standards. We are aware that the parking is tight and we will see if the description needs to be updated. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Property Owner
Joanne June 2021

“Lovely cottage in the heart of Bowness close to all amenities.”

The parking space, although a bonus was quite a challenge even for an expert driver in a small car, given the row of cars parked opposite at the side of the narrow road and the size of the neighbour’s car which shares the space and which was not moved the whole week. In addition it is not possible to simply drive out of the space, you have to drive out and then reverse down Craig Walk to the junction of Biskey Howe Road to get on your way which again is challenging with the narrowness of the road, cars parked on the road and cars coming down Craig Walk to the junction. The steps from the gate down to the front door are initially steep and narrow and are really not suitable for anyone even slightly infirm, you really do have to watch your step. The interior is lovely, very well finished. Initially we thought we had very little crockery or cutlery but eventually found it in the dishwasher, thankfully all spotlessly clean. Beds are a great size, very comfortable and clean. Ensuite a bit petite but I guess they are making the best of the limited space available. All in all an enjoyable holiday.

Offering quality accommodation, Oak Cottage is well located for all the village has to offer including shops, bars and restaurants, is in easy walk of the Lake Windermere and is an ideal base from which to explore the whole of the Lake District.

The cottage is situated just a few minutes' walk from Biskey Howe which offers stunning views across Lake Windermere and the surrounding area and is a perfect place to enjoy the sunsets across the lake in an evening. From the living room, with its cosy log fire, the large kitchen/diner, the patio and sun deck, the living space offers something for everybody whatever the season to appeal to families and couples alike. == Accommodation in detail Please note this property now has a zip and link bed which can be used as a double or twin From the parking space a small picket gate opens into the tiered front garden and the steps down lead past the sun deck and onto the patio and to the front door of Oak Cottage.

Opening onto a traditional Victorian hallway, there is plenty of space to hang coats.

The cosy sitting room offers a lovely wood burning stove, TV and DAB/Bluetooth stereo, whilst the large bay window overlooks the patio and is offered privacy from the road by the garden. The spacious kitchen / diner is finished to a very high standard with quality appliances including fridge, freezer, washer/dryer and dishwasher in addition to the electric hob and oven.

The dining table is ideally suited for both breakfast and dinner in the evening and certainly it feels like the heart of the home.

The back door from the kitchen leads to a small rear yard and level access to the street. Stairs from the hallway lead to the landing and the two bedrooms, both equipped with smart TV.

The main bedroom, to the front of the property with its super king size bed is a welcoming retreat after a day out and about exploring the Lakes.

The second bedroom, with a super king twin or double zip link bed, has a small, but well-appointed ensuite shower room with WC.

The bedrooms are complemented by a family bathroom, which is again finished to a very high standard and include a bath with shower over, basin and WC. To the front of the property the owners have made maximum use of the space by creating three tiers in the garden.

The patio area which is ideal for alfresco dining, the sun deck to relax and enjoy a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening and the third tier planted with shrubs to offer privacy.

The owners have also created at the top of the garden, a private parking space for one medium size car, but have also included a parking permit at the property that offer permit parking nearby for guests wishing to arrive with more than one car.
