Colt Park Cottage Reviews

We absolutely loved our 3 night stay, wished it was for longer. Fab views, wonderful hot tub. Facilities were spot on. Owners were helpful, they recommended The Farmers Baycliff for a meal, the food was fab. Would love to stay again. Just a lovely family break.

Philippa

We had a lovely holiday every thing you needed was there. The house it self was decorated nicely and a nice big kitchen. It was lovely in the evening being in the hot tub and looking at the beautiful scenery over the fields and the sea. The owners are lovely and can not do enough for you. We have booked again for next year . Can not wait to go back .

Pauline

The cottage was well equipped, clean and comfortable, but you would struggle to get 5 people around the dining table. The hot tub was a bonus, but as the cottage is on a busy 50mph road, it was noisy and not very private, and although it's walking distance to the beach it was safer to drive, as only a grass verge. The owner was very helpful and friendly, but we would not stay here again as we like to walk the dogs from the property.

Everything as described, lovely cottage with everything we needed for our stay. Comfortable and clean, would definitely stay again!

Nice cottage. . would stay again

Andrea

The cottage is absolutely beautiful. It has everything and more you would need for a comfortable stay. The garden is safe and secure . Our little dog enjoyed exploring it. The all singing and dancing hot tub is fabulous. We loved our early morning walk on the beach. It was a wonderful way to start the day. The welcome pack was very thoughtful and was throughly enjoyed. Helen is very attentive and gives all the information and more needed for a fantastic stay. We would highly recommend this beautiful cottage.

Carregan

We had the best time staying at Colt Park over the Christmas period. We packed a bag of things we might need for the Christmas dinner but didnt need to bring a thing! The owners have thought of everything. The cottage was beautiful, clean and the owners had even decorated it for Christmas which was lovely. The hot tub was probably the best we have ever used, with great jets and perfect for relaxing after a day walking and exploring. Parking is great, large area off road to the side of property and secure. The garden was secure for the dog and we found a lovely walk from the cottage to the beachfront. I would say the location is perfect for quiet relaxing time away, Ulverston and the lakes are within reach by car however there is limited things to do in walking distance due to there being no pavements. This didnt affect us as we just hopped in the car to places but if you prefer to walk to places I wouldnt say this is the place for you. The owners had wonderful communication texting us before our arrival and during our arrival to make sure we was comfortable or if there was anything we needed. They left a lovely welcome hamper and some balls and blankets for the dog which was so kind. This is truly a wonderful cottage and place to stay. We will definitely be returning. Thanks so much x

The property was perfect. Welcoming basket for us and the dog was much appreciated. Checked we were settled, which was such a lovely touch. Looking to go back next year as position and accommodation was perfect on all counts. Thank you

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful spot! My partner and I stayed here with our dog for the week. It was very well stocked with whatever we could need and the owners were incredibly helpful and very friendly. The little thoughtful touches made this stay one of our favourites, so many lovely ways to make sure we were comfortable. The views are quite spectacular over a field of sheep and a fairly close sea, and the garden was great fun with our puppy who was able to run freely! My only note for other guests would be that the beds are quite soft my preference is for medium firm and we found ourselves almost falling off a few times a night.

Pamela

A great place looked exactly like the photos! Comfortable, well looked after and very dog friendly. The house was warm on a cold blustery day. Hot tub was a good passage but could do with a cover to make it easier to enjoy on a windy and rainy day. House was very clean and well presented. We travelled to lots of place as good links to other parts of the Lake District. We were not far from Windermere or Lakeland motor museum

We had an amazing stay they had every single facility you could think of right down to pans. The little welcome hamper was a nice touch too. Lovely cottage in a great location

Colt Park Cottage is an extremely comfortable, clean and well appointed property. It is situated within an easy drive of Ulverston and has views over the fields and towards the sea. Mark and Helen are excellent hosts. We will be returning.

Lorraine

Lovely property in a great location being able to see the bay from the house was an unexpected bonus. We were a party of five adults and although managed for a two night stay it would have been nice to have a second toilet and the dining table was a bit tight for us all to sit around.

Sally-ann

Had a lovely relaxing weekend at Croft Farm Cottage, from the minute we walked in felt at home with the lovely welcome pack. The cottage is beautifully decorated and has everything you could ask for. The enclosed garden immaculate with the lovely stone wall aroun & views, our choccie lab Alfie loved being outside. The best hot tub we have ever had, lovely to come back to after being out. Mark and Helen were lovely hosts too. Helen checking we were ok & had what we needed & recommended places to us. We will definitely be back, hopefully in the spring xx

Michael

We had a fantastic time. Lovely stay. Very warm cosy cottage. Perfect little break. Out in the middle of nowhere, very pieceful My boys enjoyed their stay too. With board games and enjoyed the hottub,. Biggest plus was they accept pets and the grounds are a perfect size for my dog. Not that I needed anything from the owner and they thought of everything for our stay. But they are a phone call away. Recieved a welcome text message which I thought was a nice touch. Many thanks

We had a lovely short break at this cottage and I would happily stay again. The hot tub was amazing, really good jets and the beds were so comfy with quality linen. The cottage is a really good size, spacious and clean and was well stocked, including essentials like salt and pepper, oil, kitchen roll, washing up liquid, hand wash etc and extras like shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. The owners are helpful and kindly posted on some clothes we left accidentally and left us a lovely welcome pack.

We spent a week at colt park cottage and what a lovely week we had , from start to finish. We had everything we needed, such a lovely clean comfortable cottage ,added bonus was a lovely hot tub, which has only recently been added.. The enclosed garden is perfect for children and pets, also off road parking too. A great base for visiting the lakes and various supermarkets within a few miles. All in all a great place to stay, would definitely recommend.. x

Had a 3 night stay here in June, the property offers excellent facilities and has loads of space and off road parking for 3 cars. The property has a walled garden which was perfect for our little dog who could be let out to run about. The interior is clean and spacious with a large family kitchen diner with every appliance you may need, the bedrooms are a good size as is the bathroom. Although the property is on a main road the windows block out any traffic that pass, the road isn't that busy to be fair anyway. Location wise it is 10 mins from Ulvestone, around 40 mins from Windermere and a hour from Keswick. There is a Aldi supermarket in Ulvestone for any supplies along with pubs which do food. I would have no hesitation in returning, definitely one of the best properties I have stayed in.

This cottage was a lovely and clean accommodation. It had everything from Netflix on the tv to everything you needed in the kitchen. Would definitely stay here again. Communication with the owner was fantastic and they did everything they could to make it a brilliant stay. Thank you

We have been using Sykes Cottages for over 10 years and we can honestly say that this is the best property ever ! !! What a lovely surprise to have an email from the owners 2 days before our visit to inform us they had just had a hot tub fitted in the garden at the cottage. We certainly made good use of this during our stay. The cottage and surrounding lawns were immaculately kept. The decoration, furniture and fittings were of a high standard. The kitchen had a very comprehensive range of equipment. The property was immaculately presented. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Our dog certainly enjoyed the enclosed lawns. Parking beside the cottage was spacious and would accommodate 3 or 4 cars if needed. It deservedly has achieved the 5 star rating. Hazel and Trevor Wilson

Christine

What a lovely cottage! So cosy, clean and comfortable, and all the rooms bright, modern and airy what a treat to spend time here. The owners made us feel so welcome, starting off with a terrific welcome pack and staying in touch to make sure everything was ok. The cottage is in a great location, we enjoyed walks round about, especially down to the shore. The weather didn't quite stretch to letting us sit outside, but the views from the front rooms made up for that. It was within easy reach by car to Ulverston and Barrow and less than half an hour to Lakeside at Windermere. We couldn't have picked a better cottage to stay in, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and would have loved to stay longer. Thank you Helen and Mark, your cottage is wonderful!

This property had everything we could possibly need. Lots of nice touches and thought had gone into providing extras for Christmas week and for the pets. Easy and quick communications with the owners too. We had a great week and the only thing that could have improved it, wouldve been the weather

Louise

We have just spent the weekend in Colt cottage family of 2 adults and 3 children plus our 5month old puppy. We absolutely loved it. The cottage is situated along a coastal road with great views of the sea. We walked in to a warm and inviting home, with a lovely welcome package. Everything has been thought of, the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, the bathroom is lovely and modern, and the bedrooms were bright and airy. It is a great location to access the lakes it was just a 50min drive to Windermere, the local town of Ulverston is really nice with a great play area for the kids and we took a very windy walk upto the monument. Our puppy loved the enclosed garden and he enjoyed doing laps around the outside of the house, care has been taken to not forget our four legged friend to as there were a few toys for him aswell as a lead, bowls and treats. The communication from Helen was fantastic, and we will definitely be looking at trying the cottage in the summer so we can enjoy the garden and the surrounding area.

We stayed at Colt Park Cottage near Ulverston for the October 2023 half term. The cottage is easy to find with off the road parking adjacent to the property. On arrival, the cottage was warm and welcoming with a lovely gift hamper for ourselves. The property has everything you need for a home from home. It has a well equipped kitchen and some lovely extras like the coffee maker. Equipment is of a good spec and Helen and Mark have really thought carefully about what their guests may need and provided it. The cottage has a walled garden and a fantastic view of Morecambe Bay. We watched both a sunrise and the sunset with equally stunning views. It is within easy driving distance of the lakes and was a wonderful base for our trip away. I can imagine it to be a great getaway at Christmas time. I would highly recommend this cottage to friends and family. Floki recommends the icecream from the local Roys ice cream van by the bay!
