Lake District Customer ReviewsRecent testimonials from some of our Lake District Customers"This was our 9th visit to Bridge End. The cottage, the village and the fells are just so wonderful – we have to keep coming back for more. It is a place to recharge the batteries and to relax after a day's walking and we are constantly impressed with the improvements and cleanliness. "A superb honeymoon in a truly romantic hideaway. Thank you for a wonderful week in a beautiful location – lots to do and see and the perfect place to relax." “I just wanted to let you know that we had a fantastic weekend at Wrynose Cottage. The accommodation you offer is superb, very cosy and warm, even at this time of year. The location is second to none.Your staff there are great and although due to the well run nature of the cottages, we didn't need any help, everyone was very welcoming. We'll definitely be back. Thanks again.” “I took my family to stay at Scafell Cottage in Boot from 24th to 31st October this year and we had the most wonderful holiday. We all thought the cottage was absolutely stunning and so cosy and warm and exceptionally well equipped with everything needed to make our holiday even better. (Even to the lovely idea of providing two cuddly teddy bears on the twin beds for the two older children). The weather on the first day was a 'bit to be desired' but we were so comfortable and cosy the rain didn't bother us one tiny bit. Even the three children of 7, 5 and 2 years of age were happy to stay in and play. They thought the cottage was fabulous and want to go back next year. Bob the caretaker was very pleasant indeed and the pub in the village - well what can I say - we were never away!! You have done a beautiful job with those cottages Greg, the area is outstandingly lovely and the Ratty railway a real treat for the children.We will certainly want to come and stay again and thank you from my family and myself for making our holiday so relaxing.” “Wow - what a wonderful weekend we had!! The most magical spot. We just loved it. We drove to Wastwater and climbed in the fells up there, stunning views and went to the Bower House Inn on the way back. We had a wonderful night at the Brook House Inn, what lovely people they were there - and lots of fun! Sunday we took the steam train to the sea and then had a lovely roast in the evening with all local produce. I can’t say it enough, we truly loved it. Thank you so much for everything you did to make it such a special weekend.” “We stayed in Stanley Ghyll cottage in Boot for a week from May 27th this year. It was our honeymoon. The cottage was beautiful and the surrounding scenery was stunning. Everything was extremely well organised and we had a wonderful time. We feel extremely lucky to have stayed in such a fantastic place and we hope to return to Stanley Ghyll in the future.” “This is just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed the two weeks in Wastwater - as good as ever. Please pass on our thanks to Bob and his staff as I meant to see him before we left but failed to do so. We did manage Scafell again this year on a fairly good but chilly day and did not see anyone from the moment we started on the route to Sleight Side at Wha house to the moment we arrived back in Boot!” "My first visit to the Lake District. It’s like a dream come true. The cottage could not be cosier or more comfortable, the village more quaint or picturesque, or scenery more awe-inspiring. I am torn between wanting to tell everyone how wonderful this little corner of England is and being afraid they’ll all come over here and spoil it. I hate to leave.

All the cottages have wonderful facilities and so ideally placed for enjoying the spectacular scenery in Eskdale. Thanks to all who have made this possible and we will definitely return (to buy the place once we have won the lottery!!) Best wishes to all the staff who do an excellent job in the upkeep of the cottages. " "This is our first visit. Scafell Cottage is a lovely cottage with superb facilities and plenty of accommodation for a big group. Scenery is wonderful. A most relaxing holiday, we will definitely return. Thank you……. P.S. You have nice sofas!" "This is our 6th visit to the cottages and 50 years visiting Eskdale! Whillan Beck cottage is most delightful and comfortable. We have everything we need and more. We look forward to our next visit." "If you are reading this you must have somehow found Eskdale. Please don’t tell anyone else the way here. Delightful cottage – couldn’t be better. Great Staff. Thanks very much." "We had a wonderful holiday in Eskdale and Hardknott Cottage was looking very good - very clean and the improvements you have made this year are impressive. We followed your example, and did Bowfell and Esk Pike, descending from Esk Pike to Lingcove Bridge - a path did eventually emerge on the descent!" "This was our first time in the Lake District. Beautiful area with plenty to do for a family. Very nice cottages, ideally located. This has been a memorable stay for all our family. We will send over all our French friends. Sorry to leave. (Client from France)" "Thank you for making such a memorable stay. The quality of Wastwater Cottage is exceptional, all the more a treat for Margaret who got to play the baby grand piano much to her delight. Eskdale new to us is the perfect location and enabled us to explore both locally and as far as Scafell Pike and Helvellyn. Wonderful scenery all around. We couldn’t recommend the cottage highly enough." "I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed my stay at Bridge End Farm last month. My cottage, Wrynose, was perfect and I look forward to a return visit. Bob and the ladies were so pleasant and helpful. I am hoping that my next visit will be for a longer stay. "We just wanted to say thankyou! Our little cottage Whillan Beck, has been just perfect, more than we expected and we had a wonderful week in Boot. We will definitely pass on our recommendations to family and friends and no doubt we will also see you again in the future." "Thank you all very much for another wonderful and most pleasant stay. The cottages are fantastic!!!" "Thanks for providing such a lovely cottage for us to stay in over the weekend. It was much nicer than the brochure led us to believe, with the scenery around being stunning." "Thank you so much for a lovely stay. We thoroughly enjoyed it. What a wonderful cottage; it felt like home! We will be back in the near future" |
