Sandown Reviews

What a fantastic house this is, will definitely use again. The communication between myself and the owner was great, they also allowed us to enter early as the house was ready, there is lots of parking, I would say the only downside was the the main road with no path onto it. So you have to watch little ones when going out. We made a point for telling them the stone bench opposite the house was special its a sun trap ! they sat there with an adult until we were all ready there was 8 of us plus a dog! But saying that it is a fantastic location in between Windermere and Bowness on Windermere. Bus stops right outside the property and is easy to get around the Lake District if you dont want to use the car. Thank you for a lovely weeks holiday.

William

Lovely house. Situated in a great location in between both villages of Windermere and Bowness. Parking at the house for 3 cars is a rare bonus. The house was spacious and very clean and tidy with all the facilities included. En suite in every bedroom was another ideal addition allowing privacy for everyone Our party of 7 had a fantastic time and will definitely return.

Perfect for our family get together. The home was immaculate and the location perfect. Thanks so much

As a group of friends we had an amazing stay at Sandown. The house was lovely and clean and had everything we needed. Location was important to us and this house didnt disappoint! Its perfectly situated within easy walking distance of both Bowness and Windermere with so many shops, restaurants and pubs to choose from. Comms with Georgie were great and she provided lots of info to make the most of our hols. We would definitely recommend booking Sandown when visiting the Lakes.

Catherine

Property was very comfortable. Good parking and excellent position for walking, travelling, and using public transport. Our only possible negative was that the shower cubicles are a bit small for some of our party. However, we had a good holiday and we would book again if staying in Bowness.

Catharine

Second stay at Sandown, beautiful spacious house in a great location, everything you might need is provided, would highly recommend.

Candice

Lovely place to spend a week!

Maureen

Really lovely weekend stay. It was so nice & helpful having direct contact with the owner, which we have not experienced in the past, Georgie went out of her way to make this a very enjoyable stay. I would highly recommend this property.

Lovely home. Had a fabulous time.

Hayley

We all had a wonderful time at Sandown , clean well equipped , would certainly recommend, ideally located, didnt need the car all week .

Christmas at Sandown was amazing. Spacious enough for 6 adults, a two year old and our Yorkshire terrier! The bedrooms were lovely and all extremely comfortable. Georgia had decorated the living room for Christmas and it was brilliant that there were 2 fridges! It is perfectly situated to walk into beautiful Bowness and Windermere. The whole week was absolutely magical and I would recommend a stay at Sandown to anyone!

Bernadette

Had another enjoyable stay with the family. Lovely house with everything we could need. Looking forwards to staying again. Thanks.

Norman

This is indeed a delightful and well located property which was ideal for me, my wife and family 4. Facilities within 'Sandown' are geared for families and all six of us had plenty of private space when required. Restaurants and cafes are all within walking distance which made our choice of 'going out' a pleasure. The help and communication offered by the owner was of the highest standard. Everything was in place for our arrival and any questions we had during our stay were answered promptly. We all had a wonderful stay and would recommend this property in BownessonWindermere to anyone visiting the Lakes.

We enjoyed a lovely week at Sandown, the property was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Great location, very short walk down the hill into Bowness or a short walk up the hill to Windemere, There is a bus stop right outside of the house which was ideal for hopping onto the open top buses ! Lots of space for parking at the property , we had three cars with us as we were a party of seven adults and a dog. There is a small park across the road which was perfect to walk the dog first thing in the morning and last thing at night. The welcome goodies were very much appreciated !!

Christopher

Lovely property in a perfect location. Owner was very welcoming and more than helpful in providing supportive information towards our stay to ensure we felt at home. Thoroughly enjoyed our time there and would highly recommend to others. Thank you for your upmost hospitality and we very much appreciate you having us. Kind regards, Christopher et al

Sandown was perfect for family holiday and we will definitely return, brilliant location close to all the pubs and restaurants, great parking and spotlessly clean accommodation. The communication with the owner georgie who couldn't be more helpful was a massive bonus also. We have stayed in countless propertys in bowness and sandown is by far one of the best

A well equipped home, spotlessly clean and in a fantastic position for access to Windermere and Bowness.

Rebecca

It was the perfect base for exploring the lakes! Easy to reach other places by car, but so many places on the door step too! Minutes from the lake, seconds from pubs, shops etc. Perfect for chilled evenings in too!

Audrey

Lovely spacious, cosy house which was in an ideal location. Kitchen well equipped with crockery, pans etc. Bedrooms had comfortable bed with good quality bedding and ensuite was added bonus for own privacy. Owner left a beautiful hamper which was a lovely extra touch. Would return to property in warmer weather and recommend to family and friends. Thanks again for an enjoyable holiday Audrey and family.

Robert

A really outstanding house. The facilities are second to none, and the local shops etc are all within easy reach. Made to feel very welcome by Georgie and looked after us really well. Will be looking forward to staying again in the future. A big thank you

George

Great property plenty of room for 6 adults 1 baby and a dog. All the facilities and equipment that we needed were there. It is an ideal location and the private parking is a great bonus, we did not use our cars all week. The owner was very helpful and we even managed to get into the property earlier which was great. I would certainly recommend this cottage and will return again. Thanks for everything Georgie

Super holiday in ideally located property with adequate accommodation for three couples and a teenager. First floor L shaped loungedining room provided a great space to eat and to chill out. Yes the ensuite shower rooms are compact but they a perfectly functional and there was plenty of hot water. Georgies communication by email and text was excellent and in our case even whilst she was travelling on her own holiday. Also thank you to Georgie for a lovely welcome pack.

Daniel

Sandown was the perfect holiday home for our 2 families. The house was exactly as described and the photos did not embellish it at all. The bedrooms were not huge but were big enough and with each room having it's own bathroom, it was ideal. The amount and quality of the publicshared space upstairs was more than enough for the 7 of us. The best part of the stay was the communication from Georgie which made us feel very confident that we had chosen the right place. Even though there were no problems, we were made to feel that if there was, she would have sorted it out for us. We would definitely stay here again.

We have just returned from a superb holiday staying at Sandown. Brought back many happy memories of when I stayed here on numerous occasions when it was a b and b and belonged to the owners lovely late parents. The property is spacious, so ideally positioned that my parents who do have slight mobility issues could quite easily walk down to the lake and then they would get the bus back which stops directly outside the house. There were six of us and our dog and we found the house was ideal for us as a family. The owner is so lovely and we were made to feel very welcome with a lovely welcome gift and contact that if there was anything wrong we could contact her. Sandown and Kempton next door really are the perfect holiday cottages with parking directly outside and so handy for both bowness and Windermere. We loved the upside down accommodation as it was very warm but with the bedrooms being downstairs it kept them cool making it so ideal to sleep in. The living accommodation is spacious and serves well. We will most definitely be back to stay here. Thank you for a truly immense holiday.

Conveniently situated for access to Windermere, shops, buses and restaurants. Plenty of parking space. Lounge and dining area were spacious. On the downside there wasn't any pavement outside the property so you were straight out onto the road when walking. Not able to enjoy the outside space due to traffic noise. Accommodation did not reach expected standard of cleanliness, Placemats not clean, grill pan and oven very greasy and dirty, all showers in en suites very small and had black mould in them. The light switch on the wall of the single bedroom did not work and we had to change a blown bulb in the lamp. Kitchen equipment could do with updating.

The house is amazing probably one of the nicest properties we have stayed ... The house is amazing probably one of the nicest properties we have stayed in Excellent location Owners very helpful, left a lovely welcome pack and maintained a personal contact by email without being intrusive Would highly recommend

We had a fabulous holiday in Sandown. There were 4 adults and 2 children and we all felt we had plenty of space. The house is well resourced and very comfortable. The house is in an excellent location you can be in the heart of Bowness in minutes and Windermere is only 20mins walk away. There is a bus stop just outside which is great for accessing the nearby towns in an open top bus! Georgie is a very thoughtful host and communication with her was excellent.

Rodney

My family and i have just returned home after spending our holiday at Sandown. we all had a lovely time and could not have asked for anything more,

The house is comfortable and the location is perfect, both Bowness & Windermere villages are in easy walking distance. Georgie has been amazing throughout, keeping us informed & in touch when we had a query.

Alison

We had a great holiday and the house was very central and was very comfortable and was very clean and tidy.

Elizabeth

A lovely comfortable spacious house in a great location for our family 2 adults, 3 teens and our dog. It's in a great location for exploring Lake Windermere with lots of lovely pubs, restaurants and shops within a 5 minute walk. The kitchen has everything you need, the utility was very handy and the open plan livingdining area worked well for us. The bedrooms are comfortable and it was great having four ensuite shower rooms with the teenagers. Overall a great holiday at Sandown.

Hilary

Our stay at Sandown was amazing. There were 7 of us. My husband, myself and our daughter 11yrs. Both our sons and their partners. The bedroom set up was ideal, as we could all have our own ensuites. There was a very large loungediner upstairs where we could all relax together. Also a kitchen and laundry room with extra toilet. The house couldn't have been in a better location. Just a few minutes walk from centre of Bowness and the lake. With plenty to do close by. Altho we took some essentials with us, it wouldn't have been a problem if we had forgotten, because the owners had thought of absolutely everything. The accomodation was very clean and comfortable. Plenty of parking on drive we had 2 cars but easily room for a couple more We arrived an hour before checkin time. We had already been told we could park up early allowing us to go into Bowness, however when we arrived,the owner Georgie, was just finishing up, so gave us the keys a bit early. She was very helpful and friendly. We paid a security bond quite understandable which was returned to us as soon as we had left. We nearly always stay self catering and have stayed in some lovely places over the years. I can definately say that Sandown is up there in our top couple of places. We all had an amazing holiday and I would recommend Sandown to anyone. I hope we get to stay there again very soon.

Catharine

Sandown was a beautiful spacious house with everything we needed, great location for both Bowness and Windermere village.

Nicola

We enjoyed a very comfortable stay in Sandown. The property was very well presented and clean on arrival with everything we needed. It has ample living space for for our family holiday 6 adults, 1 child and 1 dog. The bedrooms were reasonable size, although the bathrooms were on the small size. Sandown is well located with easy access down to the lake, shops and lovely walks in the local area. Car parking was a great bonus so close to the town centre. The owners were welcoming and allowed us to us the car park as soon as we arrived which was early. And also early access once the property was ready. We would consider returning again in the future.

Great location between Windermere and Bowness, albeit there is noticeable traffic noise given the proximity to the road itself, very good parking, however, if you have a dog please note that there is no enclosed garden area to let your dog out of the house unattended, there is a small parkgrass area over the road where you can walk them in the evening. Ensuite to each bedroom, however, they are extremely small and challenging for any one with mobility issues with all but one bedroom having the wash basin in the room itself which is an indication of the size of the ensuite.

Christopher

A clean, well equipped and very comfortable holiday home. Well situated for visiting the local shops and cafes and easy walking to the lakeside. All en suite rooms was a bonus, even if on the small side. Would recommend this holiday home for family groups.

Bronwen

The house is in an idyllic spot and is well equipped. However, the description states ample parking and small patio area but did not mention that there is no enclosed outdoor space. We found this extremely challenging with a dog even though the house is very dog friendly. It was not relaxing plodding over to the park at 7am in my pyjamas nor at 10pm and we were fortunate that we had good weather. I would recommend this house to anyone staying without a dog, but I would suggest that dog owners think twice.

Wilfred

The house was excellent, spacious, plenty of parking, easy access to shops and facilities. Really very good.

Ashley

We went with a wide age range 984 and it met all of our needs. Details accurate and communications were excellent.
