Accommodation was perfect and ideally located for trips to Keswick and Cockermouth and the rest of the lakes . Easy communication , we were just left to enjoy our break . Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant stay, would highly recommend

Lyndsey

The property was beautiful and very elegant however customer service was just awful. We paid the 1500 deposit in full before arrival. Upon arrival the rubbish bins had not been emptied and were full. All rubbish from our stay was bagged up and placed next to the bins. The bags had been ripped open by animals after we had left the property which was out of our control. We got a charge for not putting rubbish in the bins. They charged over 300 for a deep clean of the hot tub which I would expect to be done before new guests arrived with accommodation for up to 16 people! For hygiene and infection prevention.During our stay some of the straps on the hottub cover had broken so a charge for that also which we said we would take full responsibility for as they were all in tact on arrival. And we were charged for a chair leg that had come loose not broken or snapped In total they took 1116 from our deposit. I emailed the company three times and sent two messages via WhatsApp with no reply absolutely Appaualing customer service. The house was left absolutely spotless as it looked when we arrived. So would love to know what we have been charged for as you can get replacement heavy duty hottub straps for 20. The whole experience has been very upsetting and stressful and would definitely not recommend booking or dealing with this accommodation..

Im not usually someone who likes to write reviews, but for this one, I thought it was important to make everyone aware. On the positive side, the house is clean, and the furniture and fittings are very good. Now, the other side We were disappointed with several aspects of our stay at this property On the first day, we had to wait 40 minutes after the scheduled arrival time of 5 pm to get the keys we received them only at 540 pm This place has cameras everywhere 3 at the front, 3 on the sidesback, plus a hidden one in the garden which is aimed straight at the Jacuzzi total of at least 10 CCTV. The listing says cameras are for security only, but it was clear they watched us throughout our stay. After the holiday, they even mentioned extra guests they claimed to have seen on camera. One of the insuite toilet was leaking on the arrival and wasnt fixed during our entire 5night stay although it was reported. The Jacuzzi was poorly maintained, smelled bad, and felt far from private with a camera pointed right at it. There is also a strict rule requiring a 1,000 additional deposit for extra guests. Despite my compliance and the fact that this deposit was taken in full, it has still not been refunded. Over 30 days have now passed since my stay ended, and despite my formal complaint and multiple followups, no refund has been issued. This prolonged withholding of funds is unreasonable, lacks transparency, and further demonstrates unfair treatment Overall, not what we expected and definitely not a relaxing holiday.

We booked Beechgrove manor for a family weekend and it was just what we needed. The rooms are spacious and clean and there are plenty of bathrooms. The kitchen is well equipped and we had everything we needed. The garden is large and enclosed. It would have been nice if the lights in the gazebos were working but there is obviously still a bit more work going on so it can only get better. The hot tub is a welcome addition. We all had a great time and the children and dogs were happy too. Thank you for a lovely weekend.

Everything about this property is elegant. The house is well maintained and absolutely beautiful. Very spacious and nice. Booking through Sky cottages was easy and informative. Communication was great. I'd recommend

Alexandra

We recently stayed at Beechgrove we booked the hot tub which was broken and didn't get fixed while we were there! ! We were offered an extra night as compensation but the tub was still broken so the grand kids werent entertained. So no compensation really !!! I think the amount of compensation should be reconsidered!! Please advise ?

Virginia

We had a wonderful weekend celebrating my daughters 30th Birthday at Beechgrove Manor! The property was cleaned to a very high standard and all the bedrooms were very spacious. We were lucky to get good weather and we really enjoyed socializing in the beautiful garden area. The town of Workington is within walking distance and although a little tired it had plenty of shops,cafes pubs etc. Beechgrove Manor is a wonderful property and we hope to return again one day!

What a marvellous manor house! From the moment we entered the gates, we felt like we were in a truly royal place. Our group of 16 had an incredible time here. The house was immaculate, spacious, and beautifully decorated throughout. The wellequipped kitchen made it easy to prepare meals for our group, and the luxurious bedrooms and bathrooms made us feel like we were staying in a fivestar hotel. The grand staircase, chandeliers, lounges, and dining room added a royal touch to the experience. The location was fantastic, closer to tourist destinations in the Lake District than we expected, with easy access to Keswick, Maryport, and Whitehaven. The town centre was only a short walk away, and we found plenty of great pubs and takeaways nearby Double Happiness Chinese takeaway was our favourite!. We loved the onsite facilities like the games room and hot tub, though we couldnt enjoy the garden due to rain. The hosts were incredibly helpful and responsive, and the security deposit and checkin process were seamless and straightforward. The only downside was that the broadband occasionally slowed down during peak hours, especially when streaming, but this was a minor inconvenience. We already miss the place and are planning our next visit! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing, luxurious, and memorable getaway.
