This summary has been generated using feedback from guests who have stayed at this property

Glen Cottage is praised for its stunning views, peaceful location, and well-equipped nature. Guests appreciate the cosy atmosphere and the garden, which is a delightful spot on sunny days. The property's location is ideal for exploring the Lakes, and the presence of a log burner adds to the charm on wet evenings.

Cleanliness

The cottage is generally found to be clean, with some guests taking the initiative to further tidy up. However, there are mentions of a previous pet's hair on the rug and overflowing bins outside the kitchen, which attracted flies.

Location

The location is highly regarded for its tranquillity and proximity to Keswick and Penrith, offering a perfect base for exploring the Lakes. The views are consistently praised, contributing to a positive experience.

Comfort

While the cottage is considered comfortable and well-equipped by many, there are concerns about noise from the adjoining property and issues with the hot water and heating systems. The bed comfort is noted positively, but the noise levels have affected the overall comfort for some guests.

Facilities

Facilities are deemed adequate, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable furnishings. However, maintenance issues such as a loose toilet, damaged kitchen tiles, and a rusted towel rail have been highlighted. The location of the refuse bins and the condition of the garden are also areas for improvement.
