Foxdene Cottage Reviews

The cottage is gorgeous and is located in a beautiful area. There is a nearby pub and a short drive into Windemere. There is quite a few rules for dogs staying at the property, which I wasn't aware of prior to booking. Would recommend making these aware as the pups aren't allowed upstairs, on furniture, in the back garden, had to be leads so felt like they weren't really allowed to be there. The cottage comes well stocked, and has stunning views.

Thank you so much for a lovely stay! The Christmas tree was a beautiful touch. Merry Christmas!
Andrew
Very nice property, the driveway wasn't easy in a small car due to the undulations. Although we would recommend the property to anyone who wants a home from home feel to their holiday.
Stephanie
The stay was okay, but for the money we would have liked something a bit better kept the pictures also don't accurately portray the garden which is on an extremely high slope and relatively unusable if you want to play with the kids. Dogs are also not allowed on It. It also seems that the owners are quite parsimonious in nature as they charge a large mark up for logs to be used in the hot tub or fire place, something we weren't able to fully utilise as a thermometer that was used to check hot it was was not functioning. We notified the owners of this and to our utter shock they tried to claim our dog had somehow chewed it despite it never leaving the hot tub and by their rules, dogs were not be outside the property unaccompanied off lead so I can't fathom how they believed this happened. We told Sykes that we had no part in it's damage and they proceeded to automatically charge our account without any discussion despite us having texts to show we notified the owner.
Beautiful cottage in a secluded location which is just what we wanted but easy to get to Windermere for days out. The views are stunning and couldnt have asked for a nicer place to stay. We had no issues with the hot water like other people have mentioned. The beds were super comfortable! Owner was lovely and was happy to help with any thing we needed.

Our Foxdene Cottage review: Beautiful cottage, beautiful views! !! It was a perfect stay thank you
Stunning Cottage in a beautiful secluded location. Foxdene really does tick all the boxes. This Cottage is very tastefully decorated throughout, a very comfortable and cosy loungedining area, and a very well equipped kitchen. Both bedrooms are very comfortable and the master bedroom looks and feels luxurious. We loved the outside space, great parking area, the garden for the dogs and lovely patio area. The owners Tom and Diane made us extremely welcome, they were very informative and helpful. Weve had lots of great stays in the Lake District over the years but this ranks as one of the best, so we would highly recommend Foxdene. Very much hoping to return next year. Thankyou for an amazing stay in your beautiful cottage. Karen and Dave
What a place the best I have ever stayed in around that area. So peaceful and private internet works perfect. The owners lives next door and always on hand to help out. Excellent location for food and Kendal with views you will only see in pictures. Well worth the money and would never stay anywhere else if in that area again. Private parking very safe easy to find.
Matthew
The property is amazing! Beautiful living room and bedrooms, with a brilliant kitchen facilities. The property was clean and tidy and the furnishings were comfortable and maintained a warm cozy environment. It was the first time using a wood burning hot tub and unfortunately, although amazing once ready it with stunning views, it took a lot of time and effort to prepare. I would definitely recommend this property to all, amazing property and in a great location.
