Great communication from owner. Will be back!

"A lovely property and located in a beautiful area of Lakeside."
Just a few minutes walk to boats train and aquarium. The house has everything you need and the kitchen is very well equipped. A lovely view from the main bedroom on the first floor. The living areas were very comfortable with fantastic views over the hills. Only disappointment was the weather!!
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay, and the views. We hope to welcome you back to The Lakes again. The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

"Awesome! Best way to describe this lovely property."
Lovely bathrooms with toiletries, nice touch. Beautifully furnished bedrooms, very comfortable beds. A very well equipped kitchen, amazing everything you needed and more including the utility room with washing machine and dryer. The garden room was my favourite, open the bi-folding doors onto the patio with lovely views. Nice large patio area ideal for our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and our grandson who loved it. On a good day you may occasionally see the low flying RAF jets which fly directly over the garden room. Ideally placed for exploring the lakes, nice walk to the Swan. Loved the framed 3D Lake District relief map, so much so I’ve bought one for my study. We throughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back. The shortbread and vino was a lovely touch. Alison was a lovely host thank you.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Beech Lea."
The house was very well appointed - everything we needed and more. Lovely touches such as the toiletries in every bathroom and all the well labelled cupboards and drawers. Well positioned for trips on Lake Windermere. Loved the walk to and tour of Stott's Park Bobbin Mill and the lovely walk to the Swan Inn and in the surrounding woodland. A perfect spot for a family get together and a relaxing break. Particularly loved the sun room with it's bi-fold doors. Particularly useful when it's a bit breezy.

"We have stayed in many holiday lets over the years and this was one of the best."
The owner has provided detailed easy to follow guides for all the facilities and equipment in the house. The cottage is fitted out to a very high standard, beds are really comfortable, bathrooms were beautiful and kitchen was well equipped. Log burner was great in the evening. easy to use. Location was great, stones throw from ferry and many local walks. As recommended by owners the Swan Hotel via the walk along the railway line was great, good food, friendly staff and we felt great value for money. The garage 5 mins drive from the house is well stocked with most of the essential. We enjoyed the M&S shortbread provided as a welcome gift. Literally we could not fault this beautiful property, the owners should be so proud of their rental property., a home from home indeed. Thank-you for letting us have a relaxing stress free stay in your lovely property.
Hi William Thanks for taking the time to submit your wonderful review for Beech Lea. I am so pleased your family group loved the property and the location, and that you enjoyed the beautiful stroll to the lovely Swan. I do hope we can welcome you back again in the future.

"Absolutely wonderful property to stay in."
We have been coming up to The Lakes for the last fifteen years, sometimes up to three times a year. We have stayed in many many cottages and this is just about one of the best. Every thought has gone into how you might live in and use the cottage, there are plenty of pans in the kitchen and not the usual cheap frying pan that everything sticks to. Beautiful amenities in the bathrooms. Free logs and kindling, these along with the beautiful setting, interior design that was impeccable culminated in the most wonderful stay. Also included were plentiful supply of dishwasher tablets, washing powder, washing up liquid, herbs and spices and many other condiments in the kitchen that were free to use. Beautiful box of M&S shortbread biscuits and a bottle of decent Rosé wine.. Literally I could not find one fault regarding this beautiful property. The owners should be so proud of their home/rental property, a home from home indeed!
Hi Penny Thanks so much for your wonderful feedback for Beech Lea. I am so pleased you appreciated all the extra effort we have gone to in order to enable our guests to relax on holiday in our lovely property, making it a home from home. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Thanks Alison Property Owner

We were blown away with how clean and cosy the property was. Owner has gone above and beyond with everything. It was perfectly equipped with everything you could have needed.

We love the Lakes It is our favourite place in the UK and we have been visiting as a family for over 12 years. We really did not want to leave, everything was perfect and very much home from home, obviously minus the view. All in all we could not fault our stay at all and we are very fussy.
