Reviews of Fairoak

"Stayed here for long weekend with my daughter. Lovely clean and cosy house with ample room for 5 people. Has everything you need. Great location right near centre of Windermere with shops and restaurants so close but in a quiet and pretty street. Super base to see all the Lake district. Totally recommend! "

"On arrival in Oak Street, we have to pass the cottage, go up HAZEL street and take the first turning left, the cottage is east to find as are the keys are in the Key Safe. The kitchen is small but well equipped and well cared fore. To the left is the dinning room, again well appointed On the right is the hall door, to the left is the sitting room again well appoihted and clean, next left is the front door, to the rigth are the stairs leading to a single bedroom infront of you, a family shower room to the right. Back to the top of the stairs and up 3 steps to the left is the corridor leading to a twin room on the left and a double en suite in front. Everything is well appointed. However the ensuite is a macerator ensuite so is liable to flooding and the shower does not keep warm all through a normal length shower. It is also liable to flooding. For a holiday let it is adequate for sleeping and eating in, not much else. it is situated at the shops end of Oak Street and has a nice park at the top end. At the bottom (it is on a hill) is a Co Op on the corner with a cafe on the other corner. It is close to the centre of the village with many eateries and a fair sprinkling of pubs within easy walking. There is also a Sainsburies close by. Down the hill to the left of the village are hotels, pubs parks and within 1 mile bowness on the edge of lake Windermere with plenty of ferries to all attrections on Windermere lake. Lovely."

"Lovely convenient location and central but tucked away from the town. Close to the park and shops and restaurants. Great base for walking and seeing the more rural areas of the Lakes. "

"Thank you for such a lovely stay. The place was perfect; beautifully kept, had everything we needed, and great location. Thank you for being so quick to help with the heating too when we couldn't work it out (even though it was straight forward!)"

"Fairoak is a fabulous holiday cottage. It is beautifully decorated and has absolutely everything you need to enjoy your holiday. Nothing has been overlooked there is everything you need. I can not recommend this cottage highly enough. The fact that it is so close to the centre of Windermere is a bonus. We will definitely stay here again."
