    “The downpipe from the rear gutter, outside the rear upstairs bedroom is blocked and as a consequence water is overflowing and splashing down the wall.”

    The wall light nearest to the front door is prone to bouts of flickering, which suggests a loose collection. One light bulb in the ceiling of the kitchen area needs to be replaced.

    Thank you very much for letting us know about these matters. This helps us keep on top of maintenance. Unfortunately, at this time of year the falling leaves to tend to block the gutters!! As soon as we were notified we arranged for the gutter to be cleared and we have also booked in for the electrics to be sorted. Once again thanks for the feedback. We hope to see you again soon!

The property

Keswick 7.9 miles. Scale Force is a delightful mid-terrace cottage in the Lake District National Park's Seatoller, Cumbria. This property offers a wonderful hideaway for a family or group of friends wishing to explore the area. Park-up before entering the property, passing a charming bench where you can listen to the babbling river that runs past the cottage. Step inside to find the open-plan living space and social core of the home, with a kitchen, dining area, and sitting area. Cook up a storm in the kitchen for the family to enjoy at the table for six, then move through the space and enjoy a film on the Smart TV while the fire flickers. Choose from three well-appointed bedrooms when it is time to rest, including a king-size master with river and countryside views and a twin, both served by a bathroom. Back on the ground floor, the remaining bunk room is ideal for children or friends, and you will also find an additional shower room, completing the cottage's interior. This location has plenty to do when you want to explore; the Lake District National Park is popular for hiking, cycling, and watersports so there is something for everyone. Buttermere Lake and Derwent Water are a short drive away and provide spectacular views, lakeside walks, and you can even get out onto the water with a kayak rental. Visit Keswick, a thriving nearby town where you can visit the Keswick Museum and find plenty of stores and restaurants to stock up on basics and pamper your loved ones. Further afield, The Puzzling Place offers mind-bending interactive exhibitions and Brockhole on Windermere makes a fabulous, family-friendly day out. Scale Force is a lovely cottage for a family trip to the lakes.

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