"Lovely cottage in amazing location."

"Lovely cottage in a beautiful, peaceful location."
Extremely well equipped. Would definitely recommend and it is on our shortlist of Lakeland properties to return to. Could I suggest that someone update the information folders in the cottage. Some of the leaflets seem to be out of date. Bins - we put them all out, as requested, on the Monday. The household waste was emptied, but not the others. We left them out as per the information folder - it said that because of the binmen strike they may come on another day. They were full to the top, so hadn't been emptied in some time. We really weren't sure what to do for the best. Other than that, it was a fantastic four days and we now feel totally rejuvenated!
Thanks so much for your lovely review! We’re really pleased you enjoyed your stay. We will take on board your comments regarding the information leaflets and renew these asap. We do try and update them on a regular basis. Apologies for the issues with the bins. As you say, industrial action means they have not been emptied on every occasion over the summer and appreciate you making the effort to put them out. Hopefully, this will now be resolved.

"The downpipe from the rear gutter, outside the rear upstairs bedroom is blocked and as a consequence water is overflowing and splashing down the wall."
The wall light nearest to the front door is prone to bouts of flickering, which suggests a loose collection. One light bulb in the ceiling of the kitchen area needs to be replaced.
Thank you very much for letting us know about these matters. This helps us keep on top of maintenance. Unfortunately, at this time of year the falling leaves to tend to block the gutters!! As soon as we were notified we arranged for the gutter to be cleared and we have also booked in for the electrics to be sorted. Once again thanks for the feedback. We hope to see you again soon!

"We were very happy with the cottage, the only thing that seemed not to work perfectly were the waste bins…other people seemed to use our plastics bin for their general waste!"
Perhaps some more prominent reminders of where to put what are needed in the other cottages as well. Thank you for letting us this very well equipped cottage!
We're so pleased to hear you were happy with the cottage. Yes, the waste bins have been a bit of a challenge lately and this is partly due to strikes by the local council, but it sounds like we need to let the neighbours know about sign-posting for their recycling bins as well. Thanks very much for letting us know. We hope you'll visit the cottage again soon, as it's always lovely to welcome guests back. Property Owner

"Lovely cottage."
Facilities top notch. Beautiful location. Owner extremely helpful and accommodating as I was looking to stay an extra night. More outside space would have been nice given we had exceptionally nice weather! Would come back to this cottage. Thank you.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, we’re really pleased you enjoyed your stay. We’re planning to create an outdoor relaxation and dining space in the private garden at the rear, so would love it if you returned to test it out. Hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner

Resting in the heart of the Lake District National Park in the peaceful settlement of Seatoller in Cumbria lies this homely, mid-terrace cottage, Scale Force.
With a delightful river running past, a toasty open fire, and handy off-road parking, this cottage offers an idyllic escape for a family or group of friends looking to explore this scenic area.
On arrival, park up before making your way into the property, passing a charming bench at the front where you can sit and enjoy the babbling sounds of the water.
Step inside and find the open-plan living space and social hub of the home, home to a kitchen, dining area and sitting area; cook up a storm in the kitchen for the family to enjoy at the table for six, before cosying up in front of the fire to watch the Smart TV.
When your eyes grow tired, choose from three well-appointed bedrooms; the first floor hosts the master bedroom, a king-size with river and countryside views, and a twin, ideal for a flexible sleeping arrangement, served by a sleek bathroom.
Back on the ground floor, the remaining bedroom, a bunk ideal for children or friends sharing, is served by an additional shower room, completing the interior of the cottage.
