Sanderson House Reviews

Nicola

Lovely spacious house. Excellent facilities. The pool table was a big hit. Plenty of parking. Easy entry to the house. Lovely shower toiletries. Booking communication was outstanding.

Dorjan

We had a fabulous weekend at sanderson house with the family. the house had everything we needed, clean and warm and very spacious. i would thoroughly recommend staying here and we would love to return at some point in the future Denise and Dorjan thank you

Angela

Wonderful house, super spacious and rooms were fantastic. Minor quibble as the treadmill wasn't in the Gym as one of our party was looking forward to using it. Also, some issues with showering in the first floor bathroom with water going cold during some showers. But honestly, this is a fabulous place to stay for a large party and great value.

From the initial booking to all communication with regards to our Booking we were kept fully informed of everything we needed prior to our arrival, I contacted Sarah LudarSmith during our stay as some light bulbs had stopped working and she had Steve come over that day to replace, this was exceptional service, the house was absolutely perfect for us, with 2 teenagers the Gym was used daily, the Hot Tub was amazing, the weather was not perfect so did not utilise the sun house and bar area next to the hot tub but its a perfect space for sunny weather, every evening we had a pool competition which got very competitive, plenty of living space, the cinema TV room with the massive TV was also used for my Son he had taken his XBox with him. Kitchen area is stocked with everything you need with a great sized fridge and freezer, the conservatory area for dining was spacious and extremely comfy for all meals, cannot fault any of the bedrooms again all set up beautifully and having the towels was perfect, garden was very spacious and ideal as it was all enclosed so our dog was safe out playing in the garden, even the surrounding area there is lovely walks with plenty of wildlife. Only 9 minutes from the house there is a great Local Brewery with a great choice of beers and we had dinner there on the Friday night the food was spectacular, would definitely book a table for the night you want as very busy place. Cannot recommend this place enough just perfect, and would recommend this to all, thanks Sarah for all your communication this made us feel very welcome and very much looked after

We loved our stay, because of the celebration and company! We didn't let the disappointment of the house spoil our special occasion. The house was dirty, we had to clean everything before using it and was reluctant to put food away in cupboards and fridge due to the lack of cleanliness. Because of this, we also didn't use all of the facilities such as the hot tub. Some furniture was broken and unusable.

This is an amazing house! We had an wonderful time making use of the pool table, hot tub and fire pit. The sitting room with the pool table in was brilliant for playing games and chatting, as the sofas are all arranged in a square with a table in the middle. The other sitting room was great for older family members to retreat to when they wanted to watch a bit of tv. The location is good, with plenty to do nearby, although the house is so fantastic we didn't feel the need to go out much. My bed was one of the comfiest I've ever stayed in away from home and several other family members also made the same comments. The room I was staying in had blackout blinds and thick blackout curtains, which made for a lovely dark bedroom at night. I assume the other rooms were the same, but didn't check. The kitchen and dining area is a wonderful, social space and it was great that everyone could fit around the dining table. Things like hand soap, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, washing powder, shampoo etc were provided, which was good. The house was very clean. A few suggestions to make it even better would be better lighting in the pool table room. Three out of the five bulbs above the pool table weren't working and the type of lighting, even if the bulbs were working, wasn't really adequate for the room. We had to move the lamp to the back of the room in order to see the pool table and when sitting chatting at night it felt dark. A bluetooth speaker in the pool table room would also be good, but just a suggestion. The photo of the gym is also out of date, as there is no longer a treadmill in there and the multigym didn't work. However, the communication with the owner is excellent via WhatsApp and I'm sure if we'd mentioned that the multigym wasn't working they'd have sorted it. We all had an fantastic holiday and would definitely recommend this house as a wonderful place to stay.

This is one of the best self catering holiday homes we have stayed in. We appointed with all of the equipment needed and in good working order. The hot tub and garden are lovely and there is lots to do within easy reach.

Debbie

10 of us arrived for 1 week July 24 at the lovely house which was very spacious. Dining room had enough seats and a big table for all of us to sit for meals and the Utility had, Washer Dryer, Dishwasher, Iron and Ironing Board so very useful. Kitchen was well stocked with Dishes, Pans and Cutlery. Although there were plenty of Oven Tray's and Utensils I felt that these needed updating. Bedroom again were big and plenty of storage, the beds were very comfortable although for some were a bit low. While staying we did have a slight problem that was not the agents fault this was dealt quickly and efficiently by Sarah and Simon, thank you. I feel there are a couple of issues. We had a dog and small children staying, there was no gate at the bottom of the stairs leaving it open, because of this we had to improvise to keep dog from going up and the toddler from climbing the stairs. It would have been very useful if there had been a gate there, you could put a child gate when guests have dogs or small children for safety. The garden definitely needs improving as it lets the property down, needs new Fire Pit, table and chairs rusty, new wooden seat near Fire Pit weeds taller than myself need clearing. Only my opinion but it could be improved with some ornaments attached to the fence and maybe light on the fence too. Although there were some negatives all in all it was a nice house with a great Hot Tub, Thank you.

Fantastic family house plenty of room for 3 families

It was a memorable holiday with family and friends. House was very spacious and well equipped. Only concern was that one of the showers in the first floor had a leak which leaked down to the kitchen from ceiling above. Otherwise everything was upto our expectations. Thank you

The house is amazing. It has plenty of room with the pool table in one room, there is a cinema room, a sofa in the kitchen and a large conservatory. The pool table was well used and was in good condition. The hot tub was one of the best we have been in. The bedrooms are large with 3 being en suite. We went for a walk round Ennerdale lake which is just over 3 miles away but there is also a path at the gates to the property which leads to a cycle path. We really enjoyed our stay and will be returning. Contact was by email and WhatsApp so easy to communicate.

Winifred

We had the loveliest of time at Sanderson park. Its a beautiful clean property and had everything we needed, i would highly recommend this place and all I would say is the back garden could have a little more done in the way of colour flowers but it didnt have any bearing on the fabulous time we spent there, an hour later 10.30, check out would have been better but we managed it and I hope to return again. Thank you .

Louise

The property was just great for our needs, three different families all coming together to share the space. I have never slept in beds like it, they were so very comfortable

The house is a great place to get a big group together and spacious enough not to feel overcrowded. We didn't have enough towels for our group though, despite there only being 11 of us and some bath towels were too small. It was too cold in the house on a few occasions we no option to change the heating. One of the ovens didn't work. Some light bulbs need replacing and there were no dishwasher tablets. And there were no wine glasses or pint glasses. A small pool cue might be a good idea too. It's quite tight around the pool table. But we would recommend and these are just suggestions to make it better for your next visitors

Heating was an issue as it was set by timer and we could not change. The weather had turned cold and we could not adjust the heating to come on, which is not good when you have young children.

Gaynor

Beautiful property, plenty of room for a large group. Spotlessly clean. Slight niggles, bath towels on the small size. Need larger pans. Floor boards very squeaky. Mat runner by front door a trip hazard.

Just Fabulous ! We had four generations of our family in the house and not once did we feel on top of one another . The owners were amazing helping us when we didnt quite read the instructions for the oven

Property was perfect and very good value for money, everyone enjoyed it would recommend! ! We would have stripped the bedding as requested but could not find the bags mentioned in thr welcome booklet sorry!

Saeedin

We were given loads of information before we arrived at the property which was very useful. Once we entered the property everything looked very clean and nice. Everything was set out neatly and looking very lovely including the small details e.g box of tissue. Overall we must say the whole property looked amazing

Rebecca

The house is absolutely stunning, with stunning views. The owners, neighbours and people in general are really really nice and friendly people. I would certainly recommend you this house with a 5 star experience.

Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD

We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look". Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project. The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish! Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...

Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU

Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.

Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US

This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.

For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families. Corporate groups are also well catered for.

South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU

about 28 Miles

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals. Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area. Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos. At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed. Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.
