    No hair-dryer provided. No light blankets available for warmer nights. Also, parking is off-site.

    The location was great, short walk to shops and restaurants. Good selection of cafes and restaurants all around Windemere. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels.

    A bit tricky sometimes to navigate Parking with luggage & bags either in the nearby parking space or in the streets nearby.

    We loved our stay at Cosy Nook. The name is very appropriate as it was very comfortable and well decorated. Good supplies and very handy to Windermere. A really easy walk to town with a grocery shop close by. We loved the fact that we could open the windows and have fresh air come in as it was quite hot during our stay. This accommodation is very private and quiet. We had a wonderful peaceful stay here. Would definitely stay again if we ever come back to Windermere.

    Pillows too hard for my liking. Bedroom door creeks loud when opened or closed which wakes anyone else sleeping in the room.

    Nice and modern, clean with plenty of facilities. Great Location

    I understand that this is a business however the way the company runs the rental makes it very impersonal, systematic and rather cold. With a bit of effort and a more personal touch one can help make the experience more warm in keeping with a setting of an experience by the lakes.

    The cosy home is lovely and fits in well with the surroundings. Location is great.

    It could’ve been cleaner, the pots, pans and cutlery all needed cleaning before use. But, we are picky about these things and would naturally clean these items before use anyway.

    Lovely cottage, spacious enough for 4 people for the weekend. 2 bathrooms is a big plus

    No dislikes. However, the lights above the sofa in the lounge didn’t work so it was dim in the evenings. Also the vacuum only worked briefly even after a charge. A dustpan and brush would’ve been useful to clear up crumbs etc.

    Great location and very cosy. Comfortable beds and clean. Perfect for our needs (2 adults and 2 children).

    it was very warm in the bed rooms the heating didn't seem to go off while you were in bed making it abit uncomfortable to sleep!! the glass table in the kitchen could have done with some protection on it we could only find 1 table mat which for four people not very good !

    it was just what we needed for our weekend away was very happy with our choice and would consider booking again

    The the floor of the lounge and the kitchen was not clean it had not been properly swept or mopped for a long time. Insects and crumbs behind and in front of couch. We had to clean the vacuum cleaner as brush was full of hairs and did not suck up dirt.

    The property was conveniently located. It was cosy and well serviced. Amenities were good.

    Lack of shampoo & conditioner in the toiletries (maybe not exactly the host’s fault but in North America I’m used to shampoo and conditioner included in toiletries); Coffee pods provided do not match the coffee machine but instant coffee pouches are provided (no big deal for me).

    Good location; Safe neighbourhood; Proximity of safe off-property parking; New carton of semi-skimmed milk in fridge (the milk in the UK tastes better than what I’m using in Canada)!

    Nothing, if I had to complain about anything it would just be that we had to leave. The property is wonderful and a credit to the owners.

    The location was amazing, we were about a minute walk from Windermere and all the little shops and restaurants/bars/cafes. The property itself was also fabulous, so clean and had all the amenities we could've wanted. Really pleased with it.

    We were really lucky with parking and everyday we were able to park on the street immediately outside the property (April time). If you visit in higher season, I imagine that parking could be very limited.

    Fantastic property. Very cozy down stairs (but plenty big enough for 3 or 4 people). Lovely and spacious upstairs. The rooms were much bigger than we expected. Its tucked away enough from the main high street in a lovely quite side road, yet only a 2 min walk to all the restaurants, shops etc. We had an issue with the TV and logging onto Netflix, yet after messaging the hosts, they very quickly remotely sorted it out.
