What our customers say about their holidays
Dominic - Verified booking
I booked Dixons Court a year ago on 17 January as a venue large enough and comfortable enough for my family who would be travelling from America to spend Christmas with me.
For £3.5k I had quite high expectations but they were not matched by the reality. Firstly the property was extremely cold on arrival. The thermostat when we finally located it was set to 17' and throughout the week continually reverted to that figure. Its positioning, just above the radiator in the dining room, meant it switched off whenever that radiator heated up leaving the rest of the house cold. We learned that we had to keep that radiator turned off. The top bedroom didn't heat up at all. After a couple of days of our guests being cold up there I managed to bleed the two radiators. That seems to me like simple maintenance that should be done by the owners. On Christmas Day we woke to no heat and no hot water. I again contacted Sykes but again got no response. Eventually one of our party with an engineering background worked out that it was because there was not enough pressure in the system and managed to get it working. None of us were impressed - not how we expected to spend Christmas morning! More minor concerns - the stove drove us all mad! By the end of the week I had learned how to use it reasonably well but it is not suitable for use by many different non-expert users. Generally the kitchen was inadequately equipped for a party of 11. We managed to produce all our meals only because we had brought a lot of our own equipment. There is no WC on the 2nd floor and just two WCs on the 1st floor serving 10 people. We would have grumbled about this even if they had both worked but the one in the bathroom continually got blocked. The presence of a plunger indicates that it is a recurring problem. Why has it not been sorted? I spent much of my Christmas week unblocking a toilet! I could go on. We put our most senior couple in the top room because of the en-suite facility _- but they couldn't use the bath and the bed was too low and they cracked their heads on the beams, .... and all the stairs. So to sum up. The price indicated comfort and luxury that was not present. The written description is inadequate. The managing agents were worse than useless- no response to phone calls or messages.

Had a great week here with family - 10 of us, all over 18.
The property is in an ideal location, next to a car park where day tickets can be purchased cheaply each evening (though over the bank holiday weekend we avoided moving our cars since spaces were hard to find at that time). It is conveniently close to shops, pubs, bus stop and all local amenities. Rooms are well furnished and the property provides ample space, although the sitting area on the first floor is rather cramped for a large group. However, since the space is open plan and the kitchen and dining area are all together, this does mean the whole group can be close to each other. Table would not easily fit more than 10 people, though there is another small table nearby and stools for the kitchen counter. One bathroom is ensuite to the attic bedroom which means it is less easy to access for guests in other rooms, but there is a shower on each of the other floors, and two toilets on the lowest floor. Towels could do with replacing however, as mentioned in a previous review, as they are rough and worn, with one having a hole in it. The kitchen is well-equipped and there are plenty of glasses, crockery and cutlery etc. Only issue we had was that there were no dishes suitable for use in the microwave and more medium sized saucepans would have been useful. Overall the property is quirky and charming, and we would be happy to re-book if the occasion arose.

1.Excellent location.
2. Cleanliness poor(under sofa , skirting, windows in kitchen, oven door) 3.Sauna good however no infra red.This feature was why we chose this property, we spent time from our holiday sourcing batteries for the remote( £7.40) which still didn't rectify the problem. 4.No plug in bedroom basin, hot water tap in downstairs shower room not working, toilet roll holder broken. 5.Top floor bedroom freezing, took a long time to heat , very uncomfortable. 6.One would expect for the price, supplies like toilet roll for 7 guests would be plentiful, very disappointed. 7. Towels not great, hole in one and one stained quality All of these issues could have been easily remedied , it is an accumulation of little things that affect your overall experience . We would suggest a few changes that would enhance the experience.. Sensor light to steps leading to front door the light only covers the door area, a little unsafe with pets and children. A more generous welcome basket, tea and coffee is a little poor at this price point ( underwhelmed). Checklist conducted prior to arrival, advise guests of any issues, eg Sauna no infra red. This property could be great but shouldn't rely solely upon its location and expect guests to overlook its unnecessary flaws.

We booked a 3 day mini Christmas break at this beautiful apartment in Ambelside.
The first word we said when we entered the property was wow We were 6 ladies wanting to do some walks and this place was highly suited for that. We arrived early afternoon to snow covered mountains. Absolutely beautiful. We were not disappointed. The accommodation was perfect. 5 gorgeous bedrooms with great views off the dining room. The apartment was well equipped with everything you need for a few days away or longer. A super wine cooler which came in very handy. All the bedrooms were beautifully furnished to a very high standard and extremely comfortable beds. We cooked meals in the apartment because it just seemed daft going out to the local restaurants when we had that amazing view and balcony to sit on with our wine and take it all in. The log burning stove was also a real bonus. Very cosy in the evenings. Overall a fantastic stay. Very relaxing and would highly recommend this property. Forgot to say a two minute walk to our favourite pub. All us ladies agreed we would definitely make a return visit.

This is a substantial property with an extensive garden area that you can even tire a spaniel out in!
Its a 10 min walk into Hawkshead from the property where there is a good selection of pubs and shops. We were hit by Storm Arwen shortly after arriving so had to decamp for two nights as all the power went off, but the owners kindly refunded the two nights which was very good of them as the storm had nothing to do with them. We enjoyed staying here, with all the room, large kitchen for cooking in and dining room and cosy lounge. Two main issues, there is only BBC iplayer on the TV, no other channels at all, so they could do with sorting that out as you have to rely on the BBC and the DVDs in the property, not great on early dark nights. Also the property is chilly; the heating is set to 18 degrees which is too cold in winter. I did reset the Hive heating control for the week but the owner reset it back remotely so we had to rely on the boost control. Finally a watch out, the owners arrive promptly at 10am on checkout day, never had that at any other property stay where some latitude is given
