Red Rose Cottage

Overall, a warm, comfortable cottage with a wonderful host

Pros: My sister and I stayed here over the Christmas period and had a really lovely time. The cottage was warm and cosy, with the bedrooms downstairs where it stayed cooler – perfect for sleeping. The beds were so comfortable, and the winter bedding made it a real treat to settle in at night. We were greeted with some really thoughtful festive touches: 3 Christmas trees, a welcome note, a bottle of wine and biscuits, which made it feel extra special arriving at Christmas. Karen was an outstanding host. Anything we needed, she dealt with quickly and kindly – she was incredibly accommodating and even brought a kitchen knife over on Christmas Eve when we realised we didn’t have one. The TV isn’t a smart TV, so we bought a Fire Stick during our stay, and Karen very generously reimbursed us for it so it could be left for future guests. If anyone staying here has any issues at all, I would absolutely recommend speaking to Karen – she couldn’t have been more helpful.

Cons: The only downside was parking. While it is mentioned in the property description that there’s no parking directly outside, in practice it was a tricky as the neighbouring properties parked out side, which made loading and unloading the car difficult at times (bearing how much you bring for self catering).

Pros: Comfortable, good location, great value for money. Fabulous host.

Fantastic

Pros: It was quiet, local to all We wanted to do. Internal layout was fantastic, very comfortable

Cons: Parking was hit and miss not great as parking on very narrow busy road cottage was in small cul de sac

Pros: It's a beautiful home, a fabulous location, and great hosts..

Cons: Nothing.

Shimmering Lakes and winding stone path

Pros: The entire place were clean, beds are comfortable, and basic things that we need are available. Wifi is fast. Fantastic holiday for the whole family. Karen is attentive and can be contacted anytime. Thank you.

Cons: Some pots and pans are rusty. Some kitchen utensils are slightly melted. Which is easy to resolve actually.

I had a lovely stay with my family, without any issues.

Pros: It is very cosy little cottage. Everything was fine,much ours needs.

Cons: There is no car parking next to the property but I could easily find some parking on the main street

One of the best cottages, do recommend!

Pros: Everything was great, one of the best cottages I’ve stayed in. Had everything required for daily leaving. Perfect location too!

A fantastic hideaway close to the lakes

Pros: We just spent our honeymoon here at Red Rose Cottage. It is a lovely little two bedroomed property in a really pretty little village within shouting distance of the lakes and all they have to offer. The coast is only 15 minutes drive away, well worth a visit for a beautiful sunset. The hosts, Karen and Jamie, were lovely throughout and couldn't do enough for us. The place is clean, warm, and comfortable with everything you need already supplied. The location is very peaceful with walks along the river bank only a stones throw away. Would highly recommend for a couple or small family looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Pros: Brilliant little cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Cosy home from home cottage

Pros: Lovely home from home cottage. I was very impressed with the added extras, eg, cleaning products, tea coffee, and sugar. Very comfortable beds. Hosts lovely, we arrived earlier, so I messaged to ask if we could go into the property early. A lovely message was sent back ☺️

Cons: WiFi wasn't great. Although I expected this due to the location, the kids weren't impressed.
