    “On arrival, we found that the Pearsall accommodation was not the one featured in the listing image.”

    Initially, the rooms appeared clean and the kitchen and bathroom had been cleaned well. However, we found that the rest of the property was dusty underfoot and in the corners of the rooms and the living area rug was badly in need of vacuuming. Unlike some of the others properties on the row, which are all similar in design, the plant cupboard was locked so there was no access to sweeping brushes, vacuum cleaners or the iron and ironing board.

    Initially, the rooms appeared clean and the kitchen and bathroom had been cleaned well. However, we found that the rest of the property was dusty underfoot and in the corners of the rooms and the living area rug was badly in need of vacuuming. Unlike some of the others properties on the row, which are all similar in design, the plant cupboard was locked so there was no access to sweeping brushes, vacuum cleaners or the iron and ironing board. The kettle was so badly limescaled it had to be replaced. A periodic treatment with descaler or vinegar would prevent this. We found the £200 implied maintenance charge mentioned in the listing somewhat intimidating. Several items of inventory were already damaged or missing on our arrival, evidently not often checked. Some of the fittings in the bath/ shower need some maintenance - hot water shower regulator and bath plug system. All in all, we enjoyed our stay here. Not been able to clean up and that the accommodation floors and corners of rooms not being vacuumed was an irritation, though. These things wouldn't prevent us from staying at the Ferry Landing again. These are really nice properties and ideally situated for walks and visiting the South Lakes area.

Mitchell Wyke Bay

This lovely set of seven cottages rest in the village of Far Sawrey, close to Hawkshead and Bowness. Each wrapped in views of a beautiful lake; the scenery can be admired from the comfort of your holiday home, as you relax in style. Boasting open plan living areas, you can look forward to evening meals after the sun sets, or simply enjoy some quiet time with your loved ones. All cottages benefit from a well-equipped kitchen and a lovely seating arrangement, so you can socialise from morning through to evening, discussing your up and coming adventures. To be at one with the views, wander outside onto the balcony, perhaps with a refreshing drink to start the day off well. The beautiful bedrooms offer a peaceful sleeping environment, and a shower room completes the accommodation. If you are looking for extra space, or hoping to bring along additional guests, Lund Cottage has three bedrooms with en-suites, and a woodburner to enhance those cosy evenings. You are sure to be impressed wherever you choose to stay. There is something for everyone in this wonderful location with the village of Far Sawrey housing a pub/restaurant, and Bowness, with shops, restaurants and leisure facilities; just a short distance across the lake by ferry. Watersports are close at hand on Windermere, along with Lake Cruises and the majestic Wray Castle to admire. Of course plenty of walking opportunities are nearby, with an abundance of scenic attractions, for an all-round memorable getaway. An excellent group of cottages for a peaceful holiday experience.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
