Catbells Reviews

Deborah
An excellent property! Spotlessly clean, warm, comfortable and well equipped. Ideally positioned for walking into Windermere and Bowness we didn't use our cars for three days. A real find! Highly recommend Catbells to others.
This is by far the best Sykes holiday cottage we've stayed in. We cannot fault anything at all. The house was perfect for us, great layout throughout, extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean I usually end up cleaning places before we unpack. The house had everything we needed for a much needed break. Also loved that it was tucked away from the roadside, so nice and peaceful, and only a short walk in Windermere. Could do with some signage at end of drive as we drove past it a couple of times. We didn't want to come home and will most definitely book again and would highly recommend anyone to stay here .
Catbells is a delightful property,comfortable clean and has everything provided in this lovely house. Beds very comfortable,linen clean and plenty of space for everyone.Kitchen spacious and well equipped. Cosy snug if you wanted to get away from it all. Nice goodies on arrival thank you Pleasant sitting area to enjoy after a day out. Plenty of parking Close to pubs & restaurants providing lots of choice We throughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in the near future.
Lorraine
Immaculate newly renovated home in a quiet location 10 mins walk from the town of Windermere. Perfect for a family with 3 luxury showers and 4 loos. Tastefully furnished, minimal clutter, clean and modern with spacious bedrooms. Really enjoyed our stay here as loved the clean comfortable look. We kept missing the entrance all week so a sign on the end of the uphill drive would be helpful for others.
