Miss Dawes
This is a lovely house, located really near the pretty town of Ulverston but also the Lakes. Please note though, it is on a main road so there is road noise but that didn’t detract from the enjoyment of our stay. The house is very well equipped; more than most. The extra touches like supplying hand soap, spare toilet rolls, tea/coffee, etc are all above and beyond what we’ve had in other holiday homes. For days out, we’d recommend local walks up and around Hoad Hill and along the canal to the estuary (you can do a circular walk back). Further afield there are lakes, national trust properties, forests; we had so many lovely walks!! The town is beautiful with lots of grocery shops in a short walking distance and more pubs than you know what to do with! We recommend eating at The Farmers and the Rose and Crown. We had such a great trip and will hopefully be back again.

Went here for a weeks break , 7th-14th September, was absolutely great , this was probably the cleanest property we’ve stayed at , and it had everything you needed ,great touch with the sparkling wine, only thing was the noise , I think the young boy racers come out at night , just to race down the main road , but for comfort and location, really fantastic, I will go back again, and this time bring my earplugs. Thank you once again for a great house a great clean house

Excellent property- home from home with everything we needed - all kitted out to a high spec- like a hotel but cosier! Although the property is on a main road, this did not detract from our stay - as we are right in the centre of town -handy for shops, pubs and restaurants and easy access for countryside walks with the dog. There is a small outdoor patio at back, but not enough space for a dog to "relax" - so the dog has to be walked a short distance to find some green space. There is a small park only 5 minutes walk from the property where dogs can be exercised freely, and plenty of excellent country walks locally such as Hoad Hill and Ulverston canal. Ulverston itself is a small, friendly town with plenty of amenities- and then for further afield, it is situated right on the edge of the Lake District accessible by car.
