Snaptrip says
Brookside Cottage in Windermere receives high praise for its cosy, warm atmosphere and beautiful decoration. Guests appreciate its cleanliness, convenient location, and well-equipped facilities. The garden with a brook adds charm, and thoughtful touches like wine and chocolates have been well received. While one review mentioned a safety concern, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many looking forward to returning.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage is consistently described as impeccably clean, suggesting a very high standard of cleanliness that guests are extremely satisfied with.
The location is highly praised for being within easy walking distance to Windermere and Bowness, and for its proximity to shops, pubs, and the lake, making it an ideal base for exploring.
Guests find the cottage cosy and warm, with a comfortable atmosphere. However, one review mentioned issues with the layout and accessibility for elderly guests, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities are generally regarded as excellent, with all necessary amenities provided. There is a mention of ongoing garden work and a need for better rubbish collection information, which indicates room for improvement.
Several reviews mention thoughtful gestures such as wine and chocolates, which contribute to the positive experience. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, they are a delightful bonus rather than a standard offering.
