What our customers say about their holidays

  We had an absolutely fantastic stay.

  So quiet and peaceful. The pod we stayed in was spotless, well stocked with tea, coffee, sugar biscuits. There was even a small glass bottle of milk, a small bottle of prosecco and a bottle of beer in the fridge on arrival. Very comfortable bed. WiFi was strong and reliable. TV had the options of netflix, amazon video, iplayer etc (even though we didn’t spend much time watching the tv). Most of the time at the lodge we spent on the decked area either in the hot tub or sat with a bottle of bubbly and some nibbles. Louise was fantastic and very helpful, even reccomended some places to visit and a way to get to cartmel village without walking on the road too much. Given the fairly remote location don't expect to be able to get a quick fix meal on an evening unless you book at one of the local pubs in Cartmel village but if you go prepared there is everything you need to be able to cook a lovely meal yourself, (even a fancy gas BBQ with temperature guage). All round the pod was clean, spacious and extremely comfortable. Perfect if you just want to get away from it all and relax. The farm is only 20-30 min drive away from Kendal and Windermere. Good access to main roads to the whole southern peninsula and cartmel is a 5 min drive away, Grange 10-15 mins away. There is also some wonderful walks around but that's a given when you are in Cumbria. Thank you for a wonderful stay Louise and see you again.

  The property was dusty in places There was no welcome pack No bins in the bathrooms.

  There were two different codes for the barrier on the paper work from Sykes cottages and the number for the reception on the paper work wasn’t for the site but for Sykes. The correct code was then confirmed from Sykes however when we went to the site it was a different code altogether. It didn’t say on the paper work to book in at the reception but it was then clear when we went to reception to get the Wi-Fi code as this was not in a welcome pack in the property that they would have wanted us to go to reception. The main tv stopped working however on contacting Sykes maintenance came and sorted it. Good service. We highlighted with maintenance that in the main bathroom the mixer wouldn’t stop with the water coming out of the shower, it came out of both the shower and the tap at the same time, so when doing your hair to get more power in the shower head you had to put you foot on the mixer. The plug in the basin in the main bathroom wouldn’t stay down The handle of the shower mixer in the main bedroom comes off. Maintenance looked at these points and stated they would get these sorted for the next person.

  I would highly recommend these cabins, we stayed for 4 nights in the Middle Longlands cabin with a hot tub and BBQ on the decking area.

  The inside is clean, cosy and has everything you need from a little kitchen with fridge and freezer section, oven and hobs to make meals, fully stocked tea and coffee, biscuits alongside a complimentary bottle of Prosecco and a sticky toffee pudding. The location was perfect for us, 10 minute drive to Lake Windermere as we enjoy paddleboarding aswell as other lovely local walks and towns. Petrol station and local shop were a few minutes down the road. Louise was a fantastic host, left our keys and gate fob to come and go as we please, you park up next to the cabin you stay in and can contact Louise via message if needed or when she checks the hot tubs every morning. Overall very friendly and accommodating. Our only thing was the cabins can get quite hot when the weather is nice however the bifold doors were a gods send and I recommend closing all the blinds when you go out for the day. For colder days there is a log fire and blankets aswell as heating. The views are exceptional and very peaceful, would definitely stay again.

  Little heaning is a perfect base for a weekend of exploring the Lake District!

  It's comfortable, cosy and the host, Louise, was very welcoming and left some really nice welcome treats too. The pod was presented perfectly and came with everything we needed for our stay. It made for a peaceful and relaxing getaway out in the sticks, enhanced by a hot tub and a log burner. The bed was really comfortable and the pod had a fantastic design kitted out with modern decor. The only feedback I would give is on the hot tub, at times it felt cooler with no way to turn the heat up (I guess the heat is automatic as it would eventually start warming up but would take a while to kick in) and also the bubble pressure was a little low. Both very minor things which has been overlooked as everything else was incredible, thank you so much and we look forward to returning :)

  What can I say other than perfect.

  This lodge was perfect in every way. Immaculate throughout. Everything looked brand new from the kitchen, the shower, through to the soft furnishings. The park itself was a tranquil haven away from the bustling towns of Ambleside, and Bowness. Yet both within a short drive away. The lodge was situated in what we considered to be the best plot on the park. Light and airy, with fabulous views from every window. We didn't want to leave. Contrary to some other reviews, the sofas and beds were very comfortable, and the outside furniture also. We ate once in the onsite pub, food was delicious, and reasonably priced. Plenty walks straight from the door, including several Wainrights. Thankyou for a lovely stay, we'll be booking again for next year.
