Yonder Lea Reviews

Robert
Great house to have for a week. Had everything in it with no expense spared. Owner was great and was happy to help with last minute changes. Location was great only 5 minute walk from the main shops.
Stacey
We stayed here for 5 nights and loved every second. A great location and lovely garden. All the beds were comfy and we loved the open plan kitchen. Would definitely return. The only negatives we found was the iron was broken and the washing machine brought up an error code.
Lovely property and great location.
Fantastic property in a great location. Just a few mins walk into town and onsite parking. Weather was excellent, so we made full use of the garden space and terrace. Rooms were big with lots of storage and very comfortable beds. A great house for family or friends getting together, loved the open plan layout and a high end finish. 100 recommend, couldnt fault the place!
Really enjoyed our stay, would definitely recommend and love to visit again. The house was beautiful and we enjoyed the garden with the view of the lake. The location was perfect for us, so near the facilities whist being so quiet and peaceful. Our only concern was the washing machine was broken and we later noticed this was picked up by a guest in April but there was no sign on the machine not to use. We used the machine and were then left with very wet soapy washing to try and get dry. Also no instructions what to do with the rubbishrecycling. Overall a perfect stay, left with very happy family memories.
Alison
Fantastic Holiday Home, would love to have been staying for longer. The accommodation has everything you could expect and more, lovely finishing touches. House is central and handy for everything, also a place we hope to return too, would highly recommend
We had a 3 night stay at Yonder Lea in February and loved it . There were 8 of us and there was plenty of room . The cottage was well equipped clean and well presented . It was close to all amenities and a short walk to the lake with plenty of shops bars and restaurants around . There is a slight incline walking down and back to the cottage , it has no lighting in the dark but we used our phone camera for lighting .It is situated in a secluded residential area. We didnt make use of the outside space due to weather conditions but I bet it is lovely in the spring Summer time I would definitely return .
Lindsay
A great stay in a lovely house. Had everything we needed and was lively and comfortable
Andrew
We had an amazing stay at Yonder Lea. The House is kept to a very high standard and having stayed in many holiday cottages over the years can safely say Yonder Lea was the best equipped yet! The location is great, just a short 5 minute walk into Bowness, and the view of the lake from the decking makes for a wonderful backdrop. I am sure we will return and would certainly highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area.
We loved staying at this property and would recommend to anyone! Every detail is so well thought out for guests comfort and ease! It is close to Bowness for shops and amenities so perfectly positioned for short or longer stays!
We had a wonderful Christmas at yonder Lea. Everything was lovely and we appreciated the hamper left for us. Accomadation was great 5stars . Had everything we needed and more. Christmas decorations and tree were lovely. Would highly recommend. Thankyou so much for a lovely time
Barbara
We had an amazing stay in beautiful Yonder Lea. The accommodation was 5 stars and it was situated so close to the centre of Bowness just a short walk to shops and restaurants. The EV charger was a bonus. Very dog friendly and the gorgeous Christmas decorations made us feel very festive close to Christmas. We highly recommend it and will definitely be back.
Fantastic accommodation very spacious, clean and comfortable would highly recommend and we would happily return
Selmar
What an amazing place! I celebrated my 60th birthday and this place was perfect. The owner kindly put up the Christmas decorations which made the whole stay memorable. Furnishing are of high quality and everything was spotless. Thank you Yonder Lea for a wonderful weekend.
Great property and would definitely book again. Plenty space for 8 adults, both in the bedrooms and living area. Close walking distance to shops, bars, restaurants. We had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable weekend stay.
A fabulous property which incorporated all of the facilities that you might need for a nice breakholiday. The weather was too inclement for us to sample the outside space but generally the property is close to all of the amenities of Windermere and Bowness. However There was no welcome pack left for usam I be unreasonable in expecting a pint of milk and a loaf of bread plus some tea bags or coffee? The EV charger was a welcome bonus although there were no instructions available to explain why it kept cutting out and restarting? There were no egg cups amongst the substantial crockery available. All three of these items were minor and did not detract from our enjoyment of the property. We would have no hesitation in rebooking although hopefully next time, the weather will be more forgiving!
Stuart
This is a really great property with everything you could need. Great beds,fully equipped kitchen and great comfortable living area. The enclosed garden was ideal for the dog. Situated in an ideal place for town and lake although up quite a steep hill so not good for disabled people or elderly. Would definitely recommend a stay.
Joanne
Lovely, spacious bungalow fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a short stay. Brilliant location for walking into Bowness
Michelle
What a perfect location, and a great property. The space was perfect, even a little sneaky lake view The property itself had plenty of kitchen utensils, crockery, cutlery The beds comfortable as was the seating in the main living space. We didnt get great weather so didnt utilise the outside space but it looked great.. all in all couldnt fault it.
Sharon
Beautiful property perfectly situated in a quiet road very close to the main town of Bowness. Well equipped house,very clean and comfortable for a nice relaxing break. I can't fault anything about this property.
The property is amazingly furnished with lovely views and very close to local amenities, one of the best we have stayed in. I will however probably not be going back as I will have to think very carefully about booking through Sykes cottages or lake lovers. We unfortunately left an item behind in the property which i except was our fault but I have received a email to say you have it. Unfortunately 6 weeks has now passed and despite offering to pay upfront for any postage fees I still dont have it back and it is bordering on impossible to actually speak to anyone at Sykes cottages or lake lovers about it. I would reiterate this is no reflection on the property itself. Dean Tomlin
Amazing holiday! Beautiful bungalow with superb views and very well maintained. We shall return for sure! The owner of the property was so lovely and friendly. Thank you
Yvonne
Absolutely loved the house both the space and the fact it had everything we needed. The enclosed garden was perfect for the dog and the house itself was close to everything. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. The only thing we would have benefited from was clearer instructions for the cooker.
Amazing property with everything you need for a break in the Lakes. Close to walk to the centre of Bowness but far enough to enjoy the peace and quiet. We were a family of 7 spanning 3 generations and there was enough space and privacy that we didn't feel on top of each other during our stay. We would definitely recommend it and would return in a heartbeat.
We loved it so much we booked again. .. so this is our 2nd time. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the friendly and helpful owner. The property was not only spotless but beautifully decorated with modern touches and thoughtful amenities. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we all had a great nights sleep. The location is perfect we were a very short walk into Windermere. I cant recommend highly enough. Ill definitely be returning again soon.
We stayed at Yonder Lea for a week and loved it. Lovely house that is 10 mins walk from the lake front. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable. It was situated in a quiet neighbourhood with a beautiful garden to the rear. We would love to come back!
We adored this house, it had everything we needed and more. Everywhere was spotless and the furnishings were very high quality. Fantastic location too, only a short walk into Bowness. We would definitely return.
A fabulous bungalow for a family get together. Well appointed, very comfortable beds, lovely to see the lake from the living room window. The walk up the hill after a visit to the fizzy tarte was a bit slower than the walk down. My only small gripe from a maintenance perspective was the dripping tap in the house bathroom.
Malcolm
The property was very nice and clean and spacious and we even had a distant view of the lakes from the back garden and we were very lucky to have a great week of weather. Our only issue was with the kitchen appliances and heating. The cooker was operated via a magnet which didn't seem to always want to work and the microwave required you to scan a QR code to get the instructions. The Hive heating unit was set to 29 degrees in a week of mid 20 degrees weather and we didn't notice it until we all realised we were cooking more than the weather should have made us feel. Couldn't get the Hive unit to lower the temperature so we felt we spent time battling the inbuilt technology of the property when we were in the Lake District to escape from all of that and enjoy the countryside and scenery. Not a problem for those who can't separate themselves from their technology for a break but that was the point of our break.
We stayed at yonder Lea for a long weekend and we had a lovely time! The facilities are great everything we needed was there. The house was so clean and a well looked after property. The location is ideal its only a couple of minutes walk into BownessOnWindermere. I would highly recommend the property.
Fabulous weekend with friends, great location and the beds were amazing!
Excellent property. Great location. Immaculate condition. Great for large families
Lovely place lots of equipment for the kitchen Very clean and excellent location
Vickie
I would have no hesitation in recommending Yonder Lea. The bungalow is in a fantastic location please note there is a steep hill on the ascent to the bungalow which some people may struggle with but it wasnt a problem with our party of 8 just a short stroll to the main shopsbarspier, there is a lovely view of the lake in the distance from the patio. The bungalow was spotlessly clean, we received a nice welcome gift, the fixtures and fittings are top quality, top marks for the sleep quality, the beds are sooooo comfy! Everything has been thought of. Would definitely return. Thank you for a lovely stay!
Olivia
We absolutely loved this property and would love to return. The location is fantastic and super central. Every single thing in the property is superb quality and the finishing touches are fantastic everything that you could need is there. The property has been done out to a beautiful standard and we were all really impressed. I would 100 recommend! We were all gutted to be heading home! Thank you so much!
Really comfortable and well appointed accommodation. We had a lovely, large family gathering here. Peaceful neighbourhood with distant view of the lake. Dont include the following for publication, they are intended for owner only 2 small points Loo seat in utility area not firmly fixed. Large plates dont fit in dishwasher.
Belated review for a lovely stay in early December. This property was incredible. We stayed with a newborn and a dog for a first holiday and the property suited our needs perfectly. It has been equipped and furnished to a beautiful standard, and was impeccably clean and spacious, with everything you need for a home away from home. The location is very central and we loved being able to nip back in the daytime. Would be even more gorgeous in the summer as the outside area is lovely. Were already thinking about when we can come back. Thank you!
Charlotte
The property was very clean with everything you could possibly need. Perfect location, super comfy beds. We are already planning our next trip here as it was just perfect!
