Green Acre Reviews

Green Acre is a great property. It had everything we needed and in a good location. The beds were comfortable and we would definitely book again.
Chanel
We had a fabulous time at Green Acre, the house is lovely, hot tub was brilliant to enjoy and look out at the views! Lots of nature to enjoy and I would say a convenient location to explore The Lakes!
Greenacres is in a beautiful and private location, the house was as described, and adequate for 6 people, we had a few small issues that were dealt with asap by the owner and his team. I would say that a nice property, could become a fantastic place with a bit of investment and TLC. It may also be worth mentioning that the drive needs to be kept clear when approaching the property to enable the sensors to open the gates. Peter Blackwell February 2025
Beautiful property in a stunning location. Great base to explore the area from. Very comfy beds, hot tub is well maintained. The kitchen would benefit from a few extra items but nothing crucial. We would definitely come back. The dogs loved the garden too. Owners were very quick to reply on any queries

Our Green Acre review: Beautiful location and what could be a beautiful property with some more TLC. Advert described fast WiFi, we couldnt get either tv to work with Netflix or Amazon prime internet kept crashing. The house was not the cleanest and everytime you used the shower you could smell drains. The dog from next door came through the hedge each day and left his mess on the patio for us to clean up! Overall needs a bit of attention.
This is an excellent property,this is the second time we've stayed here and we ... This is an excellent property,this is the second time we've stayed here and we all love it ,it's got everything you need for a brilliant holiday,and its lovely and cosy,this our goto holiday home,

So happy we have found Green Acre. A lovely property in a peaceful spot, ideal for exploring the southern Lakes. Suited us perfectly for a family gathering for five adults and two dogs. Would definitely return without hesitation.
No welcome pack as promised not even a pint of milk after a long journey! Strange smell when entering property solved with a plug in air freshener The lounge or conservatory could not accommodate 7 adults to sit comfortably together. Garden needs TLC Bins nearly full on arrival and found previous guests had not used black bags as requested! Overall a nice house and location but not a 5 star!
Took my Family as Birthday treat, Wife, three boys and 2 girlfriends, 2 dogs. 3 ample beds to fit the couples and a lovely single. Hot Tub, Barbecue, lounge conservatory Garden. So easily space to go and chill or gather. Blessed by excellent weather unusual according to locals as mostly raining leading up to our week. Dined in First evening and facilities able to cope with a large group cooking from scratch with ample seating courtesy of fine weather and Dining set in the Garden. All the young ones used hot tub at least 2 x a day and boy did they love it. Contacted owner on arrival as could not find key to garage info needs updating on welcome pack I was cheeky and asked for a recommendation on good Pub Grub and he didn't disappoint recommending Mason's arms which was a short drive away through some stunning scenery. Kids hooked up their x box simply don't ask me how and the availability of channels and networks was fantastic if you're not a reader. Red Deer, Rabbits, Grouse, Birds Nest in apex of house so entertainment from Cock and Hen coming and going, i even bought some bird seed. Cows in the field opposite and beautiful sunrise and sunsets. Well impressed as you can tell and this was our first foray into a cottage type holiday let. Will definitely visit again 5 Star for us.
