Waters Edge

Waters edge was really lovely.

Excellent location with a really good quality feel with everything. Well equipped and really comfortable. Everything worked properly and the lake views are amazing. Nice walks straight from the door. Longer walks into Brampton via the 'Dandy line' also good. Only one complaint, the parking is described as 'on site' suggesting near by and private. It is neither. Parking is in a public car park over the road from the property. A permit is provided and parking is plentiful but it is some distance from the door. I think misleading for anyone who finds walking difficult. Overall we loved the place and would recommend.

Views fantastic we have booked again

Waters Edge is a lovely property in a great location.

The lodge has been equipped to a very high spec with everything thought of for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. The bath is amazing! The icing on the cake is being able to just step through the gate and into the country park with it's tea room and walks. We certainly hope to return.

Fantastic property, clean and tidy apart from a few cobwebs in the sitting room, but that's it, Great views, only improvement would be an air fryer.

There are cheaper better deals out there but i picked this one as it looked a picturesque and quiet location, However sitting having breakfast Saturday morning there was a park run on first thing this would have been ok apart from, The park run steward standing right in front of the lodge gate and started taking many selfies of herself including the property where we were visibly having breakfast in the window, she could see us but never moved, all she had to do was stand 10 yards further to the right of the gate to not be seen. On Sunday morning the yacht club were out on the Tarn at 08.30 shouting on a Megaphone! So much for peace and quiet. I think there should be some signage outside of the lodge area asking for people to respect lodge Tennent's privacy and the Yacht club could use walkie talkies so they don't have to shout through a megaphone first thing Sunday morning. Its the type of Lodge we would have been back to as regulars except for the forementioned Park life steward and megaphone shouting. I'm sure these issues could be resolve by the owners talking to park life organisers and the Yacht club.

Lovely cottage in a lovely location.

Everything you need for a comfortable stay with a beautiful view.

Lovely place to stay overlooking Talkin Tarn.

The cottage was warm and cosy especially with the log burner on so it didn’t matter too much that the weather was rather wet much of the time. It was nice to have the logs supplied rather than having to source own. The bed was warm and comfortable. Shower was good. Did not try the copper bath as it was very deep and could have been a struggle to get out of after my recent knee replacement. The biggest drawback is the public footpath in front of the property. The property looks so nice from outside that some people stop and stare especially as there is a big notice on the gate advertising it as a rental. Trouble is with large glass patio doors we felt like goldfish in a bowl to begin with until we realised that they probably couldn’t see that much with the type of glass it had.

Enjoyed our week in this lovely waterside cottage.

Lots to see and do in the area too.

Waters edge is set in a fabulous location on the lake with amazing view.

Plenty of local cafes and pubs make it ideal for meals out. Unfortunately the cleanliness let it down All the mirrors and glass inc coffee table and dining table were very dirty and smeared. There was a massive cobweb full of dead flies in the living room which has been there months as someone else put a comment on about it in the visitors book. There were also dead flies and spiders on the blind in the bathroom . Various areas needed touching up where things had caught the walls and skirting etc. lots of cracks in ceiling and walls that need sorting and repainting. Such a shame as the place is lovely and obviously had a lot of money spent on it . Messages owners about these problems but didn't get any apology or any sort of feedback that it would be sorted anytime soon. Unfortunately a lot of these places become cash cows people taking your money but not spending it on upkeep or maintenance

A beautiful property in a stunning location.

The lodge has a luxurious feel and is furnished and equipped to a high standard. Although the inside is lovely its what's on the outside that makes it extra special, to get up to that view every morning was a joy we spent a lot of time sat on the veranda just watching the wildlife in the garden and on the lake. Lovely short walk around around the tarn. The property is well placed for trips into the lakes Northumberland and there are some nice woodland walks on the doorstep. For a nice meal out would recommend The Sally at Irthington about 10 minutes drive away, the food was excellent and the menu was a little bit more restaurant quality than your standard pub grub and reasonably priced. We loved every minute of our stay here and would love to return in the future. The only thing that could have made our stay more comfortable would be a fan as we were lucky enough to have some warm weather and it got quite hot at night but everything else was top notch.

A stunning property with everything thought of to make your holiday comfortable and relaxing.

The views from the patio area are superb. Plenty to see and do not far from the property too. Already recommended to friends and family.

Lovely place to stay, however not very clean.

Had to clean inside the kitchen draws & cupboards as they were full of crumbs. Also quite a few items put away dirty which I had to put in dishwasher. Bathroom dusty with cobwebs. We were also left a dirty teatowel and oven mit. Can get noisy around the lake.

A fabulous property with a stunning view.

Very stylish and comfortable. Everything we needed for our stay.

On opening the front door it was amazing!

Property was perfect ! Clean, well thought out and fab view.

Beautiful peaceful and so well equipped a place to truly relax and unwind taking in the stunning views of the lake.

Highly recommend a visit and will definitely be going back.

Such a stunning lodge nestled on the side of a beautiful tarn what more could you ask for.

Lodge had everything you needed for comfort and luxury, bath was amazing. Location great for hadrians wall and lakes & borders. Lovely little villages scattered around with great pubs. Highly recommend will definitely be back.

We recently stayed at Waters Edge and had a fantastic holiday.

The surroundings were beautiful, with lovely walks and amazing views from the cottage. The cottage itself was perfect for a relaxing and romantic getaway, offering all the amenities we needed. The scenic walks around the lake were delightful, and the charming village of Brampton was just a short distance away. It’s a great base for exploring the Lakes, Scotland, and Northumberland. We left feeling completely relaxed and would definitely return to this amazing place.

Fantastic property in a lovely location, everything you need is there, couldn’t fault it.

Only down side for me was the EV charger in the car park were out of action, which has nothing to do with the lodge and takes nothing away from this splendid place.

A stunning location and a beautiful cottage, we couldn’t have asked for more.

Hours and hours spent sat outside watching the world go by! Daily walks around the Tarn at all different times of the day we’re perfect, with a stop at the Talkin Tarn Tearoom for an ice cream one day and a breakfast sandwich another. The Cottage was perfectly equipped with everything we needed to self cater each day. Really beautiful surroundings, the weather wasn’t great but it didn’t matter at all as the outdoor canopy protects you from the ever changing forecast. We have had a fabulous time, thank you

Best place ever for position, fabulous view Parking near property would make it 100 per cent , Patricia is disabled so walking is difficult so access is paramount But would go again 100 per cent.

Kitchen superb equipment .

We have stayed in many properties booked through Sykes.

The Waters Edge is by far the most impressive, it's a little gem set in the perfect location. The beautiful view from the lodge across the Tarn, such a peaceful location. The lodge is perfect in every way possible. The owners have thought about everything to make a memorable stay. If only it was dog friendly, my boy would love it here. Need to have a look to see if any of the adjoining cottages are dog friendly. Looking forward to returning. The only thing concerning is that you have to park on the car park opposite the cottages. It would be beneficial if when staying in the lodge, parking could be at the gate to the property. The day we left a young couple staying in No 12 had no consideration, they had their car parked up blocking the road, preventing me bringing my car down to the lodge. They could see my husband and I taking our luggage back and forth to our car. People need to be more considerate. We also had a guy take a shortcut through the lodge garden /gate to walk his dog, whilst we were in the lodge. Looked like a local. Thank you to the owners for giving us the opportunity to stay in Waters edge.

A first class property in a beautiful location.

Excellent.

We had excellent time, I can truly say that it was the best place we've been in ever.

Owner doesn't try to save money on anything, everything was perfect. Thank you very much.
