Guests say

Longlands The Coach House is a quaint cottage set in the stunning Cumbria & The Lake District, ideal for dog owners and those seeking a peaceful retreat. Guests praise the beautiful walled garden, the property's location, and the friendly staff. While some find the decor charming, others suggest updates could enhance the experience.

Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with some guests finding the cottage clean, while others report issues with fleas and a musty smell. The presence of dog biscuits and uneaten food upon arrival in one instance suggests occasional lapses in cleaning standards.

The location is highly praised for its tranquility, beautiful surroundings, and proximity to local attractions. The walled garden and nearby walks are particular highlights, contributing to the property's appeal for both human and canine visitors.

Comfort receives mixed feedback. While the bed is noted as comfortable by some, several guests find the furniture outdated and uncomfortable. The lack of a functional shower and inconsistent hot water supply also detracts from the overall comfort.

Facilities and maintenance issues are a common theme, with guests reporting problems with hot water, heating, and a lack of a shower. The need for upgrades and better maintenance is evident, although the grounds and garden are well-received.

There is insufficient information to assess thoughtfulness as there are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the property owners' consideration for guests' experiences.

    Whilst it’s not been modernised, it certainly takes you back to simpler times. Good for being ‘far from the madding crowd’ and reset in a unique and peaceful secluded space.

    Very quiet and peaceful. I can imagine that it is quite amazing in better weather seasons.

    We'll definitely be back to stay with you again, however if I may suggest to upgrades to the place on general. The driveway is only accessible with a 4 x 4 or a SUV, if I'd brought my other car, then it would have grounded on several areas of the drive from the main road. However, upmost importance is to have a mirror placed on the opposite side of the road at the entrance to the property. Twice I was almost involved in a collision simply because you cannot see along the road to safely pull out onto the road. Otherwise, what a stunning property and location. TY for our stay.
