    “Overall, it was a nice place to stay.”

    Very well equipped, particularly the kitchen. Lots of towels. Spare bedding if needed. Washing machine and dryer provided (although a clothes horse would have been useful, and would probably save the owner money on energy usage). The listing was somewhat misleading, saying that there were six steps up to the property. There were, but there is also a staircase indoors going up to the accommodation. We had a party member with limited mobility and this was a struggle at times. The smallest bedroom ...

    Very well equipped, particularly the kitchen. Lots of towels. Spare bedding if needed. Washing machine and dryer provided (although a clothes horse would have been useful, and would probably save the owner money on energy usage). The listing was somewhat misleading, saying that there were six steps up to the property. There were, but there is also a staircase indoors going up to the accommodation. We had a party member with limited mobility and this was a struggle at times. The smallest bedroom on the top floor had a velux window which didn’t open-it was quite hot because of this. Location is very nice, and the lido is due to re-open next year.

    Thank you for your feedback, it is very much appreciated and we thank you for taking the time. We are sorry to hear you were not expecting the stairs in the property and will ask for this to be made clearer on the listing. We are also in the process of installing a new clothes dryer rack for guests to use and can only apologise that the original does not appear to still be there. Thank you also for bringing the Velux window to our attention, it was previously attended to and found to be working, but it has been re raised with the maintenance group we work with for them to look into. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay at Church View and hope you will think of us again when looking to stay in beautiful Grange over Sands. Property Owner

About the location

GRANGE-OVER-SANDS

Cartmel 2 miles; Lake Windermere 8 miles; Kendal 10 miles.

The charming Edwardian resort of Grange-over-Sands is set between the Lake District fells and Morecambe Bay and offers one of the mildest climates in the north of England. Formerly a small fishing village, the introduction of the Furness Railway transformed Grange-over-Sands into a fashionable Edwardian resort. Today, the town has much to offer the visitor including a traffic-free promenade, delightful ornamental gardens, golf courses, brass band concerts and excellent bird watching. Just a short drive away are Lake Windermere (8 miles), the villages of Bowness-on-Windermere and Hawkshead, which still retain the charm and character that has endeared them to so many, and the home of sticky toffee pudding, Cartmel, with its famous racecourse and the L’Enclume restaurant, which has been voted the 4th best restaurant in the UK. Other attractions in the area include Levens Hall, with its Elizabethan Hall and world famous topiary gardens, Holker Hall, Furness Abbey, Sizergh Castle, a National Trust medieval house and gardens, and Conishead Priory, a Gothic revival country house. There is also the 25 mile Cistercian Way which starts at Grange over Sands. Set amidst the southern lakes, the attractive town of Grange-over-Sands makes a superb base from which to enjoy the whole of this magical area.
