Overall it was good but there were hidden costs that we have never had to pay before through Airbnb (stated in description but not easily seen).<br/>The shower upstairs didn't work and downstairs had very poor pressure.<br/>No wifi, although the house has it which is frustrating, to say the least, when signal is poor.<br/>The drive can squeeze 2 cars + 3rd small one sideways

Incredible property, 10 minute walk from "Foot Fell" on Lake Windermere. The Property is in a great central location for visiting all the ways of a compass, with shops that are 12 minute drive away and a 24 hour fuel station 5 minutes away. House is beautifully decorated and well maintained. I would suggest that if you own a larger vehicle, that the driveway would only fit the one car on it, as the beautiful surroundings do hamper reversing onto the drive with another car on the drive. But this just adds to the charm of the property. we all really enjoyed our stay and would definitely book this property again! 5 stars

The host was unresponsive and very unhelpful. One of the worst I have dealt with. The house itself was great, nice and clean. <br/>I would not stay again due to the lack of communication.

The rental property provided excellent value for our group of five. The views were stunning, and the house was exceptionally clean and aesthetically pleasing. While I noticed a previous comment mentioning a sense of spiritual presence, I did not experience any unusual or unsettling feelings during our stay.

We had a really good experience at this place. So close to the bottom of Winderemere lake. Very private.<br/>Parking space available right next to the property (Just abouts fitted our two SUVs so decent size). Road on approach to property is a bit narrow so be careful and try to drive there before dark.<br/>Guide book under the living room table (next to the entrance) was handy in addition to the digital guide book.<br/>WiFi available at good speeds all around the house.<br/>House (including bathrooms and kitchen) are really clean.<br/>Heating and hot water controls are easy to use.<br/>Ground floor is a mix of wooden and stoned floors. All bedrooms on first floor (with wooden flooring).<br/>Washing machine, dryer & ironing stand available.<br/>Plenty kitchenware in the cabinets. Electric hob.<br/>Only ask could be to improve the water pressure in the bathrooms. Also, a curtain around the tub in the bathroom upstairs would avoid any water spillage.<br/>Enjoy your experience AirBnb-ers!

The location instruction is not very clear but other than that everything was fine. Quiet area and good vibe.

The view was nice<br/><br/>The house was freezing cold on arrival, on top of that, we had to figure out to work with a device located in the kitchen to turn on the heating that was some how changing all the time, we were setting it at a value and after 1 h or so was lower than we set...not sure if the owner itself could access it and change it...the same thing happened with the hot water when wanted to wash the children , the water went hot for a while and then was cold...we could not wash them like this..not to mention that we could not have a wash for ourselfs because of that.. <br/>Also, unable to use the wifi in the house, on the guidebook online was not available...i mean was mentioned about the passwoed but the password was not there..we tried to get to the router and tried the number there but still not worked so we gave up.. <br/>In the kitchen on arrivel we found a sink bowl on the flor as apparantely was a leak somewere nut lukily it did not rain so we were ok from this point of view. <br/>The house well equiped in the kitchen , we had clean towels and the beds were clean, the view was nice and was quiet all around.. <br/>We only spend 2 nights there , the house seems to be a terrace house built in 1865 and honestly, i felt some energies in the house, my sister said the same!
