What our customers say about their holidays
Hannah - Verified booking
This is our second visit to this beautiful house.
We are a family of 4 generations from ages 3 to 74. It was a lovely surprise to be greeted with a fully set table with serviettes, crackers, wine and biscuits (as it was near Christmas time). The garden has been done out since we visited a year ago and includes lovely garden furniture which would be nice in summer. The wifi also seems better than it was previously- still not great, but enough to be able to make online reservations for things and check emails etc. The beds are all very comfortable and the kitchen was well kitted out with many cleaning products for washing up, wiping down and even had extras like tin foil, bin bags, dishwasher tablets, lots of clean tea towels etc. The cleanliness is reasonably good. All the 'vital areas' are very clean such as kitchen worktops, fridge, bathrooms, bedding and towels but when the kids threw a teddy on top of one of the bedroom wardrobes - it was unfortunately filthy, as was behind the bed in one of the rooms (only needed to pull out 1 bed so dont know about the others). The beams in the top bedroom, over the sink area has quite bad cobwebs. And I am very particular about cleanliness, however I do not think that a few missed areas on such a huge house, is the end of the world as overall the cleanliness was good - especially where it really mattered. But from time to time, a deeper clean on less used areas would be beneficial. Instructions for the oven and hob would be helpful as the dials are now blank due to age and repeated cleaning. Our main issue was that we were cold a lot of the time! Even when the heating was on - I do not think the thermostat is set high enough for the freezing cold wether we were having. We kept pressing the 'boost' button to stop the heating going off, but that doesnt increase the temperature. We spent over £100 on firewood for the open fires to keep warm. The radiator in the main entrance hall wasnt working at all and we did try to contact the owner once when we had a power cut but they never got back to us (we managed to self solve the power cut eventually). You are provided with a basket of firewood in the 3 rooms that have opens fires / woodburners and it is really nice and cosy to have a fire on the go during a cold, dark winter nights. The decor is very dated - but it is intentionally kept 'traditional' as that is part of its appeal and is clearly seen in the photos. It's like going back to another time and era and we all love this about the house. The main bathroom and top floor suite are very fresh and modern though and we liked this too. Although I have listed a few gripes - that is only for the purpose of constructive feedback. Overall it is a fabulous holiday home, surrounded by stunning, peaceful scenery. We all slept well and enjoyed meals around the large family dining table, enjoyed relaxing on an evening in front of the open fire, benefitted from having 3 bathrooms between us all, made use of the washer and dryer, had plenty of cups/cutlery/crockery for meals and snacks, kids loved playing hide and seek in such a huge house - just over all, fabulous family time together. We definitely hope to return again.

We thought the garden was fantastic and it was a very nice quite location with fantastic views.
The laundry room was very good and the kitchen was well fitted out. The open plan downstairs worked very well too. However, the access to the property was very tight in a large car and the parking area was difficult to get out from. I think having 2 cars there would be very difficult. We also thought the cleaning could have been better, especially as the floors were slate and wood so it needs thorough cleaning on these types of floors. We also didn't like how the main master bedroom didn't have an ensuite and the bathroom for the master bedroom was the downstairs toilet by the front door. The blinds in the main bedroom also didn't fully close and the blind by the other window was missing. We also felt that although the property was nice in many ways, there lacked comfortable seating for the evenings after a busy day of activities or walking. The sofas were more day time seating, but if you wanted to relax in the evening there wasn't anything comfortable to do that on. The shower in the bedroom upstairs didn't work very well, hardly any water pressure from it, but the other showers were great. We felt the upstairs sitting room should have been the master bedroom with an ensuite added and the downstairs bedroom could have been a comfortable sitting room to relax in. We hardly used the upstairs sitting room so having that as the master bedroom might have been a better use for it. It also had the most fantastic views from there. We felt this property would be more suited to just one family staying there on their own given certain issues with it. But the biggest negative was the lack of comfortable sitting areas to relax in on an evening and lack of ensuite for the master bedroom.

Although we are regular visitors to Grasmere and have stayed at other cottages or hotels, this was our first visit to Field Foot Cottage.
We chose this cottage because we had our dog with us on this occasion. The cottage is not easy to find as it is hidden away in a side lane by the Lakes Art Shop near the Co-Op store. It is, however, central and in a quiet location. As other reviewers have said, there is a covered parking space for 1 car behind the cottage, but the space is tight and it takes some manouvering to get the car in. The cottage itself met all our needs. The kitchen is a reasonable size with good facilities; excellent range of utensils, effective cooker, dishwasher and washing machine. The living room is small but cosy and with good maps / books for local walks. We used the bedroom in the attic conversion with a large space, comfortable bed and good en suite. However, the staircase from the first floor to the attic conversion was steep and may be an issue for those less certain on their feet. The central heating was effective, although we often had to override the programmed temperatures. We were disappointed that there was no handwash provided and only one toilet roll per bathroom. Fortunately, we had brought our own which was just as well as the Co-Op store had run out of stocks in the current climate. Also, we were unable to find an Information Booklet in the property. This meant that we got to use the central heating, cooker, washing machine and dishwasher through trial and error which is not ideal. Also although not an issue for us, first time visitors to Grasmere would appreciate information / recommendations on local restaurants / tea rooms etc Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would return again

Absolutely wonderful location, far from noisy roads or busy towns.
Lovely spacious house and large garden. We spent hours just watching all the birds enjoying the bird feeders in the garden, and my son is convinced he saw an osprey take off nearby early one morning. Despite the gorgeous location, itâs close enough to Coniston Water, Gryzedale and towns like Ulverston that (as long as you have a vehicle) itâs easy to find things to do. We also found some enjoyable walks right from the front door of the house (Iâd recommend an OS Wayfarer map, though, because theyâre not necessarily well signed). You should assume you wonât have phone signal or internet at the house, although you may be lucky depending on your network. Although generally clean and in good condition, the house looked like it was ready for a good going over, with there being dust and used tissues under the loft room bed. There were some random food items presumably left by other guests gently decaying in a kitchen cupboard. Some of the TV remotes needed fresh batteries. Most of the beds were comfortable, but a couple of the mattresses werenât so good. All sheets and towels were fresh and clean. The shower drain pipe seemed slightly blocked, so when the shower was in use there was some overflowing going on behind the swing chair outside on the patio. Watch out for the towel rail in the first floor bathroom, which gets seriously hot! The shower itself was good once the right setting was found, and a great relief after a particularly wet and windy hike over the Old Man. We had a really great time at the property and exploring the area, and would definitely recommend it.

Fabulous location: a short stroll into the top end of Windermere and a short walk down to the lake which our dogs loved.
Garden was great for our dogs too though you should be aware that it is not fully enclosed, especially if you have dogs or young children inclined to wander. Also a shame it is so overgrown. It was disappointing that there was no comfortable garden furniture just a table, a hard bench and plastic seats. I did expect better given the price. We stayed there just after the very hot spell and I'm glad we didn't want to enjoy the sun outside. Inside, the bed in the ground floor bedroom was very comfortable (we didn't use the other 2 bedrooms) and the upstairs shower was great. However, the rest of the facilities were disappointing. The sofas are not very comfortable and the chairs at the dining table were hard. The Wii upstairs didn't work. The kitchen was short on useful equipment, e.g baking trays and serving dishes. Also the crockery and glasses appeared to be a cheap job lot. I needed to use the instruction manual to operate the range (way too complicated). And finally, I do not expect to have to replenish toilet paper on the second day! All in all and given the cost, the accommodation was disappointing and such a missed opportunity to create a stunning comfortable property in a great location.
