Extremely well equipped, comfortable, spotlessly clean and all rooms furnished to a high standard. Perfect location for local transport links, shops and restaurants and a variety of local walks directly from the house. Plus the bonus of adequate off road parking. The fact that the friendly owners live just next door was also very reassuring, No hesitation in recommending this property.

Loads of room for 3 couples on a family trip. The house has all the facilities and equipment you would want. Clean and tidy. The position in the south Lakes couldnât be better. Grange over Sands and the surrounding area is great. Lots to see and do.
