“Overlooked at rear, by other property, not mentioned in advertising material.”
Very noisy in morning and evening when people going to and from work, 20 cars per hour, average Bed very comfortable and storage good, and furnishings very good. Bathroom adequate, but workmanship poor. Not recommend to seal bath to wall with adhesive, it's normal to use a non setting compound. I slipped and grabbed at the right hand side of bath to break my fall, it gave way, split the side panel, and in consequence tiles glued to bath came away. Cobwebs in bathroom and behind some furniture. Kitchen cramped, no cooker hood, so when we had a fry up the fire alarm went off. Front path non-compliant; risers must be same height, and treads (the going), must be same dimension front to back. Sound of brook and bird song fantastic, when they could be heard. Swinside pub very, very disappointing. The Pheasant Inn opposite Bassenthwaite Lake was excellent We had a good week, went on the Ratty, had good time on the Gondola and Tweedies in Grasmere is a good place to stop for a relaxed drink. Views from Swinside front to back spectacular but spoil by activity center to the rear and waste bins to the front.
