• "What a treat this house is!"

  It impresses at first with the magnificent view of the lake outside, then it continues to impress with every little detail. I am hoping to be able to find times when the property is not booked, it is so wonderful that it is difficult to book. People are wise, and places as good as this get booked very quickly. We had a fantastic time here and our memories will last for a very long time.

• "We enjoyed our stay."

  Stunning location and high spec property. However, I was disappointed with the lack of customer care - no welcome pack and no response to the specific issues I raised on departure. The bad drains smell in the twin bedroom was very nasty and the property would benefit from more intensive cleaning.

  Hi Andrew, we are surprised to receive such negative feedback especially as we spoke to you before your arrival, during your stay and in person on your departure, each of these times you did not advise of any issues. We did receive a list of items from Sykes Cottages which was phrased as 'the guests did enjoy their stay and very much just wished to make yourselves aware of the small issues to help for the future'. Some of the issues mentioned such as no washing up liquid were actually in the property, there is a bottle under both the kitchen and utility sink. All of the other points raised have been looked into and no issues found other than the arm on the outside chair, which you brought to our attention, has now been fixed. We do want all of our guests to enjoy their stay with us and had you made us aware of any issues during your stay we would have immediately addressed these for you ensuring you fully enjoyed your stay with us.

• "This was our third visit."

  That says it all about this property. The ever changing views of the Tarn and level walk from the door are big plusses for us. We wanted for nothing in terms of the property.

• "Quiet & peaceful."

  Spacious & comfortable, even luxurious. Very well-equipped. Great communal garden & lovely views from the cottage, with lake very close by, offering plenty of easy walking. Very much appreciated having electric car charging points on-site. Made for a great week's holiday.

• "We had a fantastic stay at Tarn End, the location is stunning and the property is beautiful and we'll equipped with everything you need."

  I would highly recommend this property. The only criticism is that it would have been nice to have received a welcome pack, just some milk in the fridge and some biscuits would have been nice to receive after a long journey. Supermarkets are not that close.

• "This is a truely blissful high quality property with walks and water foul on your door step."

  We loved our time there and would not hesitate to book again if the price is competive. We would love to live there full time in our retirement. I cannot fault the property. All decorated for Xmas for us as well which is a great gesture. TV is great with all the channels and connectivity. I cannot suggest any improvement because its perfect as it is at this time of year.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback and a perfect 100 score. We hope we can welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner

• "A hidden gem at the North."

  Our family had fantastic time staying at Tarn End. The location is truly amazing, just a few minutes off the A69 which could lead you to Carlisle, Hadrain’s Wall and Newcastle, it’s very easy to get to and parking even if you are a new driver. With the lake on the doorstep, we had never got bored of looking out windows seeing the beautiful nature around us and water activities that people were doing in the lake. We love the garden and we enjoyed walking around the lake, our 9 years old loves doing bugs catching, birds watching and even tree climbing. We feed the swans and ducks almost everyday. If you are not scared of dark, step outside of the house doing stargazing is super fun! The inside of the cottage just as beautiful as its’ surroundings. Love the highly specific designed interior, love the premium quality of the bedding and all of us had good sleeps throughout the holiday. If you are someone like my husband who cares about shower pressures at holiday, Tarn End would never disappoint you. Our family often cook during the holiday, we found almost everything we need in this well equipped kitchen.Good size fridge& freezer, all different sizes new nonstick pans , tools, microwave and a coffee machine. I have been surprised by the hot water tap, totally love using it. If I am allowed to make one minor suggestion, I would hope oven gloves could be included. I remembered reading other reviews mentioning about pulling curtains in the living room, we had no problem with that at all. Three doesn’t have signals here if you are inside but all other providers are fine. Wi-Fi in the cottage is working like at home, very well. Tarn End is a prefect holiday cottage to us, we felt so lucky to have found the place for our summer holiday. I indeed hope that we could stay longer next time.

  Thank you for such a lovely review of our cottage and it sounds like you have all had a lovely holiday, the location really is fantastic for getting back to nature and to keep children entertained. We hope we can welcome you back again soon. David and Julia Property Owner

• "High spec accommodation in a beautiful location."

  Lovely to sit indoors and watch the tarn or on the patio. Benches in the communal gardens. High spec designer fixtures, fittings, utensils, soft furnishings etc. Plenty of crockery, cutlery etc. Spacious, tall ceilings. Private secure bike/equipment storage absolute dream. Easy access to Hadrian’s Wall, forts etc. by car or bicycle if fit! We cycled a lot using very quiet lanes and bridleways over fells. Locals very friendly and helpful about places to visit. Highly recommended

  Thank you for such a lovely review and we are pleased your enjoyed your stay with us. We hope we can welcome you back again in the future. David and Julia Property Owner

• "We had a fabulous stay and will be highly recommending it to friends and family."

  The layout of the cottage was very good and the beds comfortable with well-equipped En-Suite shower rooms, and the rest of the cottage was well equipped. The views of the Tarn Lake were spectacular in Autumn colours especially when the sun came out. Superbly situated in an area that is very quiet and peaceful. Recommendations for minor improvement: For night time arrivals, the key safe box was hard to see the numbers without the use of a torch. A request for the two single beds to be put together was not complied with which was disappointing. The fire was left with the flame effect disc out which took 3 days of our stay to find, insert and achieve the correct visual display and sound effect. The curtains in the lounge / kitchen area very high making them a little awkward to pull closed and open, could do with a pull pole on the end curtain ring for ease of use for that height and would alleviate any possibility of damage occurring. Maybe an instruction leaflet on operating the hob for those not familiar with electric hobs Minor point that could make ones stay slightly easier.

  Thank you for the feedback and pleased you enjoyed your stay . We take your comments on board . However there is an instruction folder and we were on site every day for any help you may have required. Best wishes Property Owner
