The house was beautiful and homely! Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay an only a short drive to Windermere! A perfect stay all round!

Wow!!! What a house. We had a beautiful 4 days here with our dogs. Beautiful house lovely and spacious. Felt really at home. The road was not busy so barely heard a car. Enjoyed walks every morning from the house. Highly recommend here for a stay. One of the best B&B we have stayed in . Well done ?

South View is a beautiful property off the beaten track. The area is so peaceful and beautiful but it is a short drive to the local shops and restaurants. My family and I enjoyed our stay here, there was plenty of space and the house was clean and very modern. We will be returning here again.

We had a very enjoyable stay at South View. The house is decorated tastefully and the rooms are larger than expected. The road it is located on is quite noisy but this didn’t take away from the stay.

The cottage was beautiful and in a lovely location. However, the communication was really poor. We had a problem regarding access and we had to take the matter into our own hands as there was zero communication received from hosts after ringing several times. We also had no hot water on our second night and asked for advice on how to resolve this but again did not receive a response. Overall, we had a great stay but the communication just let it down.

Just had the most chill time with a group of mates at up at the lakes. We were all sad to leave this amazing house. Nicely presented decorated and finished to a high spec throughout. The rooms are very spacious apart from the cinema room which is quite cosy. Loved the fully equipped kitchen which made light-work of entertaining in it. I was pleasantly surprised to see there is even enough space to relax on the rear garden patio and have a BBQ - which isn't obvious from the pictures! Location although off a (quiet) road is, fairly secluded, very quiet and within 20mins of all the activities we wanted to do that weekend. I'll be coming back to this gem in the future for sure! Absoluteleh loveleh!

Lovely house with pristine rooms, all appeared to have been recently refurbished. Beds were super comfy. And tons of space in all the rooms. The en-suites are definitely luxurious. And the kids loved the gym! Lovely large lawn area to the front and side of house (there’s no rear garden). Only downside was that, though it’s on a very quiet side road you can hear the nearby bypass when outside. But inside the windows are well insulated and it doesn’t disturb at all. Easy to get to Lake Windermere and Grange over Sands. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend.

The house is spacious and modern as described. Great communication and prompt response with Steve. Although there was issue with the hot water late at night , Steve helped and solved quickly over the phone. Would recommend this place to anyone who is visiting the Lake District.

Really lovely property in a great location
21/07/2024
Larger than you think, rooms all generous, extra living space. Hard without a car given where it is, need to pre book taxis if you have no car, but that's not the hosts fault. Very well presented, clean and would go back.

Placr was just as described.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The hosts had brilliant communication and the location is fantastic! Not only do you have the gorgeous Lake District to explore but Yew tree barn, with their wonderful Harry’s Cafe (a must visit for breakfast/ lunch ) is right next door and the much hyped about Heft is just a short walk up the road. The house is very comfortable and spacious, there is plenty of room for everyone if your staying indoors on a rainy day. We will most definitely be staying again

This is a beautiful home in a peaceful location. The house is easily large enough to accommodate 6 people. The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms and kitchen have been tastefully renovated. The restaurant next door is great for coffee or lunch. The location is a little isolated but it was perfect for our needs. A very enjoyable stay.

The home was very modern, clean and spacious. There was plenty of room on the driveway for multiple cars. And it had a great location, with just a short drive to Lake Windermere.

What a little gem off a place, it’s off the beaten track but only 20 min drive to Windermere and anyone going lakes should expect to drive really, my only thumbs down was wasn’t able to get a late check out as trip was planned for Mother’s Day and didn’t understand why when there was no other booking coming in that day or the day after ??. The washing machine isn’t really usable as for some reason it didn’t take the washing capsules or spin enough as clothes ( school uniforms ) was still soaking and had the washing liquid in patches on them, maybe a new machine is needed ?? We would stay again but would again opt for a late check out other than 10 am on a Sunday with children, host and stay you have a great place and maybe think about them late check outs as think this would deffo bring customers back again and again for you.

What an idyllic home! We could not fault our stay at South View. From the moment we pulled up to the gate, we knew it would be just perfect. The beautiful long hallway, leading off to a cosy (huge) living room with super comfy sofas, to the open plan kitchen which has everything you could ever need. We were super impressed with all the amenities available for children such as cutlery, plates, cups, highchair, cot, bedding and toys. Off from the kitchen is a cosy cinema room and a gym!! The rooms were just stunning, one large 'honeymoon' suite with a standalone bath and walk-in wardrobe. A room with 2 single beds and then another large king size room with an en-suite. I would highly recommend this place, so quiet and peaceful and very close to the most beautiful village, Cartmel. Also a 20 minute or so drive to Windermere and a beach in Grange-Over-Sands close by. The photos don't do it justice. Thank you to the wonderful hosts, we will be back!!

We really enjoyed our stay at South View. The area was just what we were after - peaceful, quiet, and the surroundings were absolutely beautiful. The house itself is gorgeous, really beautifully decorated and you can tell everything has been recently renovated. The interior design is gorgeous. The host was responsive and provided us with a very detailed out welcome pack prior to checking in. The garden is a great size, drive big enough for 4 cars, house beautiful. You do have to drive everywhere, but we expected that and that was absolutely fine. They had also pre made a fire which was a nice detail. Unfortunately, the bin in the main en suite bathroom hadn’t been emptied, there was an empty bottle on top of the fridge, few areas which needed dusting. We were also told we couldn’t have early check in/ late check out, which meant we were out on the crack of dawn on our last day, which put a dampener on the end of our experience. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, just get the duster out!
