Cath – 13th February 2011

Sarah & Chris were the perfect hosts, and really got the balance between being friendly and chatty, and leaving us to our own devices. And I cannot recommend the place enough - the superkingsize bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in! The view of the Lake took my breath away on the Saturday morning (we arrived in the dark on the Friday evening).

It was ace to have a sofa in the room, and that all of us could sit and natter, catching up and drinking tea / coffee. Again Sarah and Chris were perfect hosts - making sure we were settled in our rooms, had everything we needed, and then left us to get on with our weekend away.

Seriously, if you want to go to the Lakes - especially if there are 2 lots of you going together - book Oakdene.

One other thing that was good for us (and probably would appeal to lots of sports-folk) is that the bathroom is big, and has a tiled floor. So, once we had cleaned off our muddy bike kit outside using the very useful outside tap, we were able to hang / lay stuff out to dry without worrying about messing up carpets, etc.

 

Norna - 13th February 2011

Absolutely delighted to be Oakdene's first guests! If we hadn't known we were, there wouldn't have been any clue that Sarah and Chris weren't old hands at this. Fabulous, cake-filled welcome for Han's birthday, even though we were crankily late on a rainy Friday night. Large, light, inviting room (and we had the smaller of the two), stylishly understated, and well thought-out. Huge bathroom with plenty of piling space for muddy riding gear, and sumptuous bath.

All the little touches were spot-on: plenty of choice of drinks, fresh milk available, builder-size mugs, hot water bottle, arrangement of the maps in the breakfast room... and the poached eggs were impeccable! Will definitely be back, and would definitely recommend it even though it's so good we want to keep it to ourselves. Thank you, chaps!
