• "This was a wonderful cottage return plenty of space for belongings and pretty much everything we needed."

  (Could have done with a long handled broom). It was lovely to have a welcome off flowers, milk and hot drinks and biscuits to get us started. Thank you. Our two girls enjoyed them indoor and outdoor games and Alexa to listen to their favourite songs and check the weather! Great place to get to Lake Windermere and Conniston Water but also south to Barrow and Walney Island. Lots to explore. We will definitely be back to the area but probably not this cottage- the only downside of this cottage for us was one toilet and shower for the 4 of us was a little tricky at times. But we knew this when booking. Everything else was great!

  Thank you for your comment. The long handled broom is just outside the door. Property Owner

• "Excellent cottage with every thing we needed."

  Spacious and clean and beautiful safe and secure garden for the dogs. Location is a bit out in the stcks. Walked into Grizebeck on the first day along a busy road with not much footpath, which was treacherous, and there isn't much there when you get there. The pub was closed and the service station looks very run down. However, once we got our bearings everything was OK. Visited Broughton a few times plus Ulverston and a Askam beach, which is fabulous for the dogs. All in all a great holiday.

  Thank you for such lovely feedback about Brookside Property Owner

• "Beautifully appointed cottage in the South Lakes."

  Spotlessly clean and beds very comfortable. A lot of effort and expertise has been used when renovating this property to an exceptional standard. Location is ideal for accessing the Lakes and surrounding areas. We were lucky enough to enjoy sitting in the garden in the evening, using the cushions and couple of throws for the chairs. Highly recommend this cottage 5*

  Thank you for such a thoughtful review, it's great to hear you enjoyed sitting in the garden and the weather was nice for your visit. Hope to see you again. Property Owner

  Garden was great for the dog. Apparently there is no longer a general store in Kirkby in Furness which was a disappointment. We would recommend as a base for exploring,but we would have liked to have been a bit further away from the main road.

  I am sorry you were disappointed with the local amenities, glad you enjoyed the cottage. Property Owner

• "This holiday was for my 60th birthday and it was perfect in every way."

  I chose the property due to the location and the easy access to the beautiful Lake district. The setting was idyllic, in a quiet remote area surrounded by rolling hills, mountains in the distance and grazing sheep and newborn lambs. The cottage exceeded expectations; stylish, quaint and full of charm. The cottage was spacious with an attractive outdoor garden and furniture which we used quite a lot during our stay despite it being March and the weather being unpredictable. The lounge was small, but cosy and really we didn't spend much time in the lounge. The rest of the cottage kitchen/dining room were spacious and full of everything that we needed for a pleasant stay. The owners left fresh flowers, dog treats, tea and coffee and biscuits which was very much appreciated and welcoming. I have stayed with Sykes cottages a few times in the past and I can definitely say that this is my favourite cottage so far. Clean, comfortable and full of charm, we loved our stay at Brookside. it was perfect in every way. Many thanks to Sykes Cottages and to the owners. Paula

  We were very lucky with beautiful sunshine throughout the week, the garden is a lovely little sun trap in the afternoon and evening. From the moment we opened the gate to Brookside we knew we had picked the perfect cottage. A lovely enclosed garden for our dog with nice seating area to enjoy the sunshine with a glass of wine. We were welcomed with flowers, milk, tea, coffee and biscuits. Our dog was welcomed with a fresh bowl of water (just what she needed after travelling) and lots of yummy treats. The cottage itself was such a lovely clean, spacious home for us all. We loved the kitchen! It was a great location for the tourist spots (not too far to drive). Some off the places we visited were Coniston Lakes, Lakeland Motor Museum, Ulverston, Lake Windermere, Bowness-on-Windermere, Stanley Ghyll Waterfall. We all had a great holiday, would happily return and recommend to family and friends.
