Lovely few days at Greenheys cottage. It location is excellent. The cottage is well equipped but a little outdated. We had problems trying to turn the heating off on what has been the hottest weekend this year!

although warm and comfortable, thought that it could benefit from a make over - dated the garden seemed over grown and needed attention the waste bin was emptied, but the recycling bin was almost full - probably christmas period limited collection

For location the house is a great place. Simple to walk to cafe's and restaurants and also start local walks from the doorstep. For comfort, the unit could do with a upgrade. In winter we struggled to heat up the house (other than the lounge which has a gas fire - old type but works wonders)

What a lovely house in a brilliant location. Plenty of space, comfortable and clean. We did a few hikes from our front door as well as there being great cafes, pubs and shops (particularly the gingerbread shop) and Wordsworth's grave on the doorstep. A fantastic stay!

Entry was frustrating as the keysafe was very difficult to operate. On final exiting the property, had to call your office for guidance as could not operate the keysafe at all, and had to resort to posting key through letterbox. Carpet in lounge had several stains, and some of the furniture ie tables in lounge and dining room were badly water-markeRead mored/stained. In all other respects property was well stocked. Hide
