Robert July 2024

“Wow! Where do I start?”

Judith and Tim were amazing. Lots of tips of where to visit, which we took full advantage of. We had a fantastic stay at the Grange. A deceptively large property with little surprises around every corner. Our kids really enjoyed the games room in the basement. Our expectations were exceeded. The house and garden were immaculate. We were very close to the lake and town centre, which was also a bonus - just a short walk. The only criticism, is the distance you are from our house in Wiltshire. If you could move everything a little closer, we could spend more time at the Grange.

“We had a fantastic week at The Grange.”

We loved The Grange as much as we loved being in The Lake District. The garden is wonderful, the rooms are spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. It’s a special place

Victoria March 2024

“We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful property.”

It was spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable, spacious and we enjoyed the most gorgeous garden. Close to lake Windermere. Great information provided by owner of where to go and what to see and do. A fabulous holiday.

- Victoria, March 2024
David October 2023

“Lovely large property for 3 couples.”

Loads to do in the immediate area. Great walking from the door. It would have helped if the kitchen was less cluttered, providing more surfaces to work on. Also a nest of tables in the living room would be helpful. So marked down slightly for these. But we all had a great time.

- David, October 2023
Leonie September 2023

“Beautifully presented period house with large rooms which meant we all had plenty of space.”

Set in a lovely large gardens with some views over the lake and parking for several cars. It is in a very quiet location yet only 10 minutes walk from Windermere, so very convenient. We loved it and would highly recommend to anyone who wants a comfortable, stress free holiday.

- Leonie, September 2023
Hani July 2023

“Beautiful house , Excellent location , Beautiful large garden and all facilities you think of is provided .”

Enough place to park all our three cars . Will definitely come back next year.

Sarah June 2023

“Another wonderful stay at The Grange.”

The Location, The views The property is well presented and has everthing is there at your holiday accomodation to enjoy that home from home experience. We didn't have a car but it in walking distance to Windermere one of our party wasn't great walking and she found it easy but it is also near to a bus stop to explore surrounding areas and the bus service very reliable. This accomodation is excellent and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

- Sarah, June 2023
Anne June 2023

“Excellent stay at The Grange last week.”

Very cool house in high outside temperatures. Very clean and exactly what we were expecting. Had one small problem with a tap which Sykes sorted out promptly and fixed within a couple of hours. Will have no hesitation in staying again.

Mandy February 2023

“We had a lovely stay at The Grange.”

We arranged the break for my mum and dad as they never get away and dad has an illness, and they enjoyed it very much. The house is lovely, clean and comfortable and the location was great. The owners which we met on arrival were also lovely and helpful. We have a 20 month old daughter and she loved having the space to run around and playing ball in the garden. The games room in the basement needs updating, the table is too old/worn to be played on, but we didn't book the house for that purpose so wasn't a problem for us. Would highly recommend a stay here! Fantastic space with lovely views.

- Mandy, February 2023

Thank you for your kind feedback, we are glad to hear that you had a lovely stay. We take all comments on board. We hope to welcome you back again. Property Owner

Rebecca August 2022

“We have had a fantastic stay at The Grange and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend!”

We took our five children ranging from 15-24 and games room was definitely a hit. The location was amazing and we enjoyed the ten minute walk down to the lake for a dip most days making most of the weather. Also the walk to Orrest Head from the house was beautiful. The house had everything we needed and it was clean and comfortable. The grounds were beautiful and despite being being shared there is plenty to go around. In short-lovely house (especially for families with older children), wonderful location!!

- Rebecca, August 2022
Kevin July 2022

“Excellent location, a beautiful property with wonderful views from the large floor to ceiling windows, lake views from the master bedroom.”

Children of all ages (and some adults) will enjoy the games room in the basement. The Grange provided our 3 generations with everything we needed to enjoy are family holiday. I like to try new places but this is one I would revisit.

- Kevin, July 2022
Lisa July 2022

“Lovely house, in great location within 10 minute walk of both the lake and town, yet still peaceful.”

Superbly equipped and very comfortable. Great communications from the owner who clearly takes pride in a unique house and has provided a fantastic holiday home. Our best holiday home yet!

- Lisa, July 2022
Margaret July 2022

“Love this property .”

This was our second stay. Everything we could think of was provided . The garden is delightful. My grandson loved rolling down the slope but i missed the wild flowers that adorned the top of the slope last year. The property is close enough to walk into Windermere and to Booths supermarket. Only one slight negative for me was the bed in the large (beautiful) bedroom on the first floor which I found to be a bit hard and uncomfortable but that could be down to personal taste . The views from the window and the attic room window are stunning. Enjoyed our stay immensely

- Margaret, July 2022
Paul June 2022

“We had a lovely stay.”

The property is fabulous and in a great location. It suited 3 separate couples with own bathrooms and plenty of parking. The standard of upkeep was excellent and we will certainly consider staying again when we have a suitable party.

- Paul, June 2022
Pamela May 2022

“This is a beautiful property beautifully furnished with stunning views.”

The proportions of the house were just right making it a really comfortable stay. For us the bed was too hard, but that is a matter of preference. Kitchen was well equipped, and we had great fun in the games room.

- Pamela, May 2022
Christopher January 2022

“Beautiful house, lovely and warm on arrival and spotlessly clean.”

Plenty of space for everyone and in a great location.

Clare November 2021

“Fabulous stay at the Grange.”

Photos don’t do it justice. Very well equity, lovely bedding abs fresh soft towels. 5 minutes walk from Windermere. Fabulous views of the lake from the Grange. Beds lovely and comfortable and property is large. Would definitely recommend . Thankyou .

- Clare, November 2021
Wendy October 2021

“The Grange is a stunning property that was perfectly located and suited to the needs of our two families.”

The top floor was a haven for the three teenagers and they loved the games room too (along with the Dad's). We had everything we needed to cook meals in and there was lots to choose from for meals out (Windermere - 5/10 min walk & Bowness 25 min walk). Thankfully the weather was kind and we enjoyed lots of walks nearby with stunning scenery and a 2hr boat hire on the lake was well worth it. The Dad's managed a couple of games of golf too. We did have a some issues with the wifi (and connected heating), but this was quickly fixed by Lakelovers maintenance or by speaking direct to the owner. The only other feedback is that our friends who slept in the large/master bedroom, found the mattress/bed very soft and sagging in the middle. This did cause some sleepless nights and sore backs. Whilst we appreciate that everyone has different preferences to mattress firmness, this did seem unusually soft. That apart, we would definitely come back and stay again the next time we visit this stunning part of the country.

- Wendy, October 2021
Paul September 2021

“We had a great stay, everything was perfect, there was an initial problem with the wi-fi which was resolved as quickly as we could have reasonably expected.”

Many thanks

“Great house.”

Very well kept. Great amenities. Great location. Sykes have been very good to deal with through lockdown. Would definitely go back and/or book again for somewhere else through Sykes.

Alison July 2021

“Our booking was for Bottletops but that was double booked.”

Your handling of the situation was appalling. I was travelling with my very elderly parents, their first outing in 18 months. We had travelled 6 hours from Essex and if Customer Care had dealt with the situation we would have been turned away with nowhere to stay, with a refund - when in fact you had an empty property down the road which Customer Care did not offer because it was larger than what we had booked. I really don’t know what we would have done if, in the end, Steve had not taken matters into his own hands.

- Alison, July 2021
Jane July 2021

“Location was convenient.”

Lack of outside dining facilities. Can't believe that you have a company policy of only providing one toilet roll per bathroom. Very disappointing when you are charging for a high end property and no indication is given on your list of things to bring. Knives were incredibly blunt and almost useless. The listing should be clear that the views of Windermere are only from the two back bedrooms.

- Jane, July 2021
Sarah June 2021

“Really good holiday the house and Gardens with views was fantastic, location was brilliant we had a car as my son took us up but you could certainly make it your base accessible to train station and buses, easy walk into town.”

“The Grange was a beautiful property, very tastefully renovated and hugely generous on space.”

We loved the views and the location was great for our teenage boys, who could walk down to the lake and into town. It was also very quiet and the games room was a great addition. We loved it!

The property

Whilst being only a five minute stroll from the heart of Windermere village centre, this imposing Lakeland residence, encapsulates Lake District luxury living, commanding magnificent panoramic views over Lake Windermere and the timeless Lakeland fells beyond.

Newly renovated and restored, this period property will capture your hearts making for a perfect holiday at any time of the year.

Spacious and gracious sum up this magical place - a place to unwind and spend precious time in the company of friends and family. == Accommodation in detail Entrance porch and a first sight into this captivating residence; spacious dining / hall, perfect for formal gatherings with great food, even better wine and conversation late into the night.

The drawing room has a splayed bay window commanding spectacular views; this room is for total relaxation.

The breakfast kitchen literally has it all, including hidden panels to pop out a TV; even 'Nigella' would feel at home in here.

The rear lobby gives access to a cloakroom and the rear of the property where a courtyard patio makes a perfect setting for breakfast on sunny mornings.

There is also access to the cellars where the games room offers fabulous games for all ages including pool, air hockey, Wii and a DVD player. The original magnificent staircase ascends to the first floor, where from the Master Bedroom the views over the lake get even better.

This bedroom is an homage to Victorian life with French Antique furniture including a king sized bed, and delightful en-suite facility.

Also located on the first floor is a separate suite with a further king size bed and en-suite bathroom.

Upwards and onwards takes one to 'The Loft Suite' - wow, what a room this is with breathtaking views and en-suite facility, the room is divided by the staircase giving two distinct sleeping areas - two rooms in one.

This is perfect for families with a child.

The writer of this would instinctively plump for this room - expect some debate!! The shared lawned gardens are delightful around 3/4 of an acre, with superb views from the terrace inviting guests to enjoy al-fresco living or maybe for just a glass or two in the evening sunshine.

Location This unique self-catering property offers easy access to the lake shore, and also the popular villages of Windermere and Bowness.

Windermere village centre is just a five minute walk away, ideal for stocking up the kitchen; there you'll find a large Booths supermarket well stocked with the best local produce as well as everyday essentials.

The High Street has a traditional butcher, several restaurants and cafes together with pubs serving real Lakeland ale.

Bowness village is a busier tourist destination, just a couple of miles away.

The village revolves around the boating activity of Bowness Bay, where hire boats come and go and Windermere Lake Cruises depart regularly to Ambleside and Lakeside - explore without a car!

Windermere Golf Club is located just outside Bowness.

You'll also enjoy easy access by car or bus to other popular Lake District holiday destinations, such as Hawkshead (via the car ferry across Lake Windermere from Bowness), the Troutbeck Valley, Ullswater, Ambleside and Grasmere.

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