Cunsey Lodge Reviews

Judith
We had a great stay at cunsey lodge. There are lovely views of lake windermere from most windows.and from the hot tub ! The house was spacious and well equipped and in a good location for touring and walking.
Beautiful house, well positioned for a lovely stay in the Lakes, close to lots of amenities and country walks for the dogs. Kitchen well stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our stay with the family.
We loved almost all of the house. Upstairs was perfect as was the kitchen. We also loved the hot tub. My only suggestion would be that there wasnt enough seating in the lounge for 8 people. Disappointed with the communication with Sykes. Your key collection e mail was still wrong about the on site pool. I did however manage to get all the correct information from the lady at Greythwaite Estate who was extremely helpful.
An absolutely fantastic place with beautiful surroundings, so clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Our family had an amazing time, and the thoughtful touch of providing enough wood for both the fire and hot tub was truly appreciated. It made our weekend even more special! Highly recommend staying here.
We had a wonderful weekend at Cunsey lodge. Very comfortable and clean and the house was lovely and warm from the minute we walked in. The log burning fire was the icing on the cake with a weekend of storms. Would highly recommend and would use again.
Great place to stay with the family. We celebrated Christmas and my birthday with family a group of 7, including children. Lovely open plan accommodation and all bedrooms had an ensuite which was great. Well equipped kitchen and plenty of pans, roasting tins, plates and cutlery etc to cook and eat our Christmas dinner. Also loved the log burner. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again. Thank you
Second time we have stayed at this property. Great family house, especially with each bedroom having its own ensuite.
Alison
A spotlessly clean house , with excellent facilities ideal for a family gathering of 8 , views and walks from the door and use of a pool a short car ride or an hours walk away . The kitchen was very spacious and had everything with the exception of a potato peeler ! Maybe an air fryer would be an addition to such a high end property ? The hot tub was easy to fill and heat with the logs provided too . A superb property highly recommended
Cunsey Lodge is a lovely place to stay, is more spacious than the pictures show and in a picturesque location. The only comment I could make is the kitchen could do with a few more things, a frying pan, some smaller bowls for cookingserving and toilet roll holders in the bathrooms. Perhaps more details on finding the swimming pool! We would most definitely visit again and highly recommend it to friends and families who want to holiday together but have private roomsbathrooms. Thank you Braithwaite Estate
Was a fantastic experience for the whole family, in s stunning grounds. Will definitely return in the future
Cunsey lodge was a spacious accommodation in a great position on the edge of Lake Windermere. Louise the letting manager was kind enough to allow us early access which was extremely welcome. The only negative was the kitchen equipment needs looking at, not enough potspans, both corkscrews were of no use broken. I wouldnt hesitate to book again if these small but important tweaks were carried out.
Trushant
