“A very relaxing and peaceful place to stay.”

It is becoming increasingly difficult to find good quality, pet free cottages. My husband has allergies, so it's a must for us. We are so glad we came across Moorhurst. Everything was just as described and very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable and the rainfall shower is amazing! Although there are other properties surrounding the cottage, it was very quiet. There was plenty of information in the cottage for things to do. All the appliances were user friendly. There's not much outside ...

There's not much outside space, but the views from the windows more than make up for that. Definitely somewhere we would like to revisit in the future. Well done to the owners for providing such a great place to stay.

Kathleen January 2025

“The cottage was not only clean and comfortable but a place of beauty, with tasteful decor, colour and views of the estuary.”

The text on arrival from the owners and the bottle of wine provided a thoughtful welcome. It was well positioned for local transport links and felt very safe. Definitely a place to return to and recommend.

- Kathleen, January 2025

Kathleen, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and would like to return again. We would love to welcome you again. Thank you, Beverly Property Owner
Natalie November 2024

“We had a wonderful stay.”

The cottage is beautiful and very clean and well kept. The view over the bay was magical and the hosts kind and helpful. Would recommend without hesitation - thanks for a wonderful stay!

Thank you Natalie for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are delighted you had a wonderful stay. We would love to welcome you back soon. Beverly Property Owner
Linda November 2024

“We had a lovely week at Moorhurst Cottage.”

The cottage was equipped to a very high standard, with plenty of nice crockery,and kitchen equipment. Lovely little finishing touches throughout. The linen and towels were of good quality. Every consideration was given to make it a lovely comfortable place to relax in. The views over the bay were an absolute delight! thankyou.

- Linda, November 2024

Thank you Linda for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are delighted you noticed the little extra touches we make to ensure everyone has a wonderful stay. We hope you managed to re-visit Moorhurst Cottage soon. Beverly Property Owner
Christopher October 2024

“Fabulous property with delightful views over the estuary.”

Cottage comfortable and bath linen and bed linen all top quality. Comfortable bed! Kitchen well equipped. Upstairs quirky as the second bedroom is off the first bedroom. Ok for families, but awkward if staying with friends. The upstairs toilet although cramped was a real bonus as bathroom is situated downstairs, so saves having to go downstairs during the night. A lovely cottage, tastefully decorated, constant hot water, and gas fire which is very efficient. Would 100% stay again.

- Christopher, October 2024

Christopher, Thank you for your feedback. Yes we keep getting marked down for accuracy of listing. Such a shame as the Sykes details clearly say downstairs shower room and that the family bedroom is accessed through the main bedroom. However, we are glad overall you enjoyed your stay. And we look forward to welcoming you back again. Beverly Property Owner

Catherine June 2024

“We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moorhurst.”

The cottage was perfect for a small group and very comfy. The views over the estuary were superb whatever the weather. We felt very relaxed after a week there and will certainly be back.

- Catherine, June 2024
Shelagh April 2024

“Really enjoyed our relaxing break at Moorhurst cottage.”

The owners have thought about every detail to make sure that your stay is comfortable and looks fabulous. Loved the views over the estuary and being able to do some birdwatching from the windows. Felt very relaxed after our stay would recommend this place to all. We probably will be back again soon.

- Shelagh, April 2024

How wonderful Shelagh of you to leave us some kind feedback. So glad you loved our Cottage and had a relaxing break. We would love to welcome you back again. Thank you Property Owner
Angela March 2024

“Fabulous cottage, with lots of character.”

Tastefully furnished with all the amenities you could possibly need. And spectacular views over the bay. We would not hesitate to return in the future.

- Angela, March 2024
Jackie March 2024

“Fantastic cottage in a great place.”

Very relaxing and our 3rd time back was as good as ever. Superb views across the estuary and the cottage is to a very high standard. We will be returning again next year!

- Jackie, March 2024

Thank you Jackie for taking the time to leave us some great feedback…. Again!!! We look forward to welcoming you back again next year. Property Owner
Kate December 2023

“A cosy cottage with fantastic views across the bay.”

It is considerately and stylishly furnished, even with a handy pair of binoculars for the bird watching. We love staying here and escaping from our regular life for a few days.

- Kate, December 2023
Sarah November 2023

“Moorhurst is the most beautiful little cottage and was a great base for us to go and explore the Lake District.”

Beautifully decorated and clean, with everything you could need, with great use of nooks and cranny’s! The views across the bay were fabulous. Bedrooms funny layout as you get to the 2nd room through the master, wouldn’t be an issue for families or 2 couples that don’t want 100% privacy! As a sole couple though didn’t bother us at all though! What else to say other than there is a fabulous little tea shop at Haslemere as you come into the sands, with a great traditional bakery, lovely bread and cakes and very reasonably priced. Thank you for a wonderful stay, hope to return soon!

- Sarah, November 2023

Sarah, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We were especially pleased that you loved our cottage. And had a great stay. Yes it’s definitely quirky which I think is what makes it so special. We would love to welcome you back to Moorhurst on your next trip to Cumbria. Thank you, from Beverly Property Owner
Celia October 2023

“Overall great but if we'd had children with us the upstairs toilet is too small to be practical and being right at the top of the stairs makes it a little unsafe.”

Also, whilst it's a nice gesture to receive a bottle of wine, I would gladly have swapped it for a bottle of milk and some tea/coffee. We didn't expect a hamper but for the price paid you would expect basic refreshments and toiletries.

- Celia, October 2023

Celia, thank you for visiting Moorhurst Cottage. We are pleased you felt overall your stay was great. We note your point about young children and agree with you which is why our listing says not suitable for young children. In regards to the welcome bottle of wine we have done much research and found that one persons tea/coffee is another persons herbal tea and difficult to cater for everyone’s tastes. We do provide the basics, soaps, toilet paper and kitchen essentials. Property Owner
Les September 2023

“Yet again a fantastic week staying at Moorhurst cottage, highly recommended, all the comforts of home, with views over Morecambe Bay.”

Excellent,

- Les, September 2023

Thank you for to taking the time to leave us a review. Especially as you return time and time again. That is testament itself to how gorgeous Moorhurst is. We are glad you had another lovely stay. Look forward to welcoming you again. Property Owner
John July 2023

“We loved everything about the property especially the scenic location- perhaps you could organise better weather for us next time!”

- John, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback we are Glad you loved Moorhurst. If it’s any consolation the whole of the UK had bad weather that week. Property Owner
Elizabeth June 2023

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the cottage is so cosy, very well organised, everything you need.”

The beds are extremely comfortable, and sitting up in bed to see the amazing view, also watching the stars at night laid in bed, very relaxing week. Great for recharging your batteries. Plenty of good pubs, restaurants and tea rooms in the area. Great base to explore both the coast and countryside. Would definitely recommend. Also thank you for the bottle of wine, very nice.

- Elizabeth, June 2023

Thank you for taking the time to leave us such lovely feedback. We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you again at Moorhurst. Property Owner
Catherine June 2023

“Wonderful stay at Moorhurst cottage.”

Comfortable and homely. Good location for walking and easy access to the Lake District. Easy access to the trains connecting coastal destinations. Wonderful views and decent outdoor space. Good communication with cottage contact. Well stocked kitchen for self catering. Would definitely return without hesitation and recommend to family and friends.

- Catherine, June 2023

Thank you for taking the time to leave us such lovely feedback. It means so much that you found Moorhurst so appealing. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back to Moorhurst again in the future. Property Owner
Colin March 2023

“What can I say… Moorhurst definitely didn’t disappoint!”

!! Absolutely stunning!!! Really nice cottage inside and out! Lovely area, close to all amenities, wish I would of booked for longer! Only one thing I would bring up is that there are people living below the cottage and the hard floor throughout makes it quite noisy for the people living below, I do believe this should be mentioned in the listing for the property!

- Colin, March 2023

Thank you for the feedback it is very thoughtful of you to think of our neighbours in the cottage below who we have a great relationship with. We have gone to great lengths to minimise the noise transfer to the property below. You may remember there are extra thick huge rugs in the property to minimise noise. There is also insulation below the hard floor and a false ceiling below that too. The other property is hidden because of the slope of the land - so it does look and feel like it disappears - giving us the advantage of the amazing views. Property Owner
Jackie February 2023

“Superb cottage and holiday.”

Great views and very well equipped high specification cottage. We have stayed before and loved it and loved it this time too. We will be booking for next year.

- Jackie, February 2023

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such positive feedback especially since you have stayed before. This time you will have benefitted from the enhanced views now a neighbour of ours has removed some wildly growing trees. We can’t get over the difference it’s made. Property Owner
Kelvin January 2023

“We had a great week here and loved the cottage.”

Thanks for letting us stay in such a well appointed little house, in a perfect spot. We were blessed with an excellent weather week and loved seeing the ever changing views from the windows. We immediately booked for the same week next year, which says it all really. Thanks K&L

- Kelvin, January 2023

We are so glad you had a good week in Moorhurst. The fact you rebooked is testament its self to how much you enjoyed your stay. Thank you Property Owner
Catherine December 2022

“We have stayed at Moorhurst Cottage before and so staying there for Christmas was extra special.”

The location is great to be as busy or as quiet as you want to make it with Bowness being just a short drive away. The facilities within the cottage are great with everything you need for your stay, the cottage is spotlessly clean and very welcoming making you instantly relax. Moorhurst is exactly the same as the photos. Due to it being Christmas we had a few days where we just stayed in watching movies, playing games and spending hours just watching the ever changing view from the windows out across the bay. No matter the time, day or night, the view is just mesmerising. Due to us doing a back to back stay everything was organised in advance for our extra long stay with the owners for bedding and towels. We absolutely love Moorhurst Cottage and loved our special Christmas stay.

- Catherine, December 2022

We are so glad you had a memorable Christmas in Moorhurst. Thank you for your glowing feedback. We go to great lengths to make everyones stay enjoyable. Property Owner
Rosemary September 2022

“Moorhurst cottage/apartment is a lovely, quirky little place.”

The design, tasteful decor, fixtures and fittings have been well thought out by the owners. Comfy beds, powerful shower, power-points and mirrors where you need them together with good quality kitchen appliances. The owners have put a lot of thought with attention to detail including a pair of binoculars, maps, books, games together with a lovely bottle of wine. It was very quiet with just the occasional car and train passing by and no noise from adjoining properties. Kents Bank railway station about 5 minutes walk away. Our only disappointment on arrival was seeing scaffolding covering adjoining property that overhung Moorhurst and obstructed the view of the Bay. Work had finished so this should not be a problem for others once removed but we had not had warning to expect this.

- Rosemary, September 2022

We are so pleased you enjoyed staying at Moorhurst. We are sorry we didn’t alert you to next doors scaffolding as we thought it would have been removed by the time you arrived. That was our mistake and, as you know, it’s still waiting for the team to take it away!! We are reliable informed it will go this Monday - we have let the incoming holiday makers know so they are not surprised! Moorhurst is such a great place to discover the Lakes from and I am very pleased you mention Kent’s Bank Railway. It offers opportunities to just leave the car behind and visit either South down to Arnside (we like to cycle to Arnside and then put the bikes on the train to come back!). Or north up to Ravenglass where you can intercept the steam railway to Eskdale. All good fine or poor weather options. Alternatively, you can just sit and watch the ever changing view of the estuary and wonder in for coffee, lunch or evening meal via the promenade. It’s why we love the place so much Property Owner
Brian September 2022

“We had an excellent holiday in a beautiful cottage with superb views.”

- Brian, September 2022

Thank you so much for the review and very pleased you loved the cottage. Property Owner
Uli August 2022

“Moorhurst Cottage is a wonderful place!”

It was refurbished with a lot of love and style and is extremely cosy. The beds were comfortable, the view amazing, the kitchen small but complete and everything was very clean. The kids loved the super tiny toilet upstairs. The cottage was also supplied with bathroom and kitchen essentials, which was especially pleasant for us as travellers from Europe who couldn't bring much. We enjoyed the view, the walks to Grange-over-Sands and it has been a very relaxing holiday for us that will surely be repeated sometime soon. Thank you very much!

- Uli, August 2022

Thank you for your glowing review. I am glad as a guest from Europe you found everything you needed to make your stay enjoyable. We would love to welcome you back to Moorhurst if you are in the UK again. Property Owner
Ursula August 2022

“We absolutely loved our stay here.”

The cottage itself is really beautiful and thoughtfully equipped. It felt very homely. Grange Over Sands is a really brilliant base from which to explore the Lakes while staying in a quieter location, which was exactly what we were hoping for. The owners have added lovely little touches such as books about the Lake District and other information to help you learn about the area and its history and to find your way around, and there was a bottle of wine waiting for us on arrival which we would never expect but is so appreciated. The views are of Grange Over Sands are heavenly, the cottage is in a peaceful location with exceptionally lovely and friendly neighbours who were only too happy to share their wonderful local wisdom with us, which added to how welcome we felt staying there. Thank you for providing the most perfect base for our week exploring the Lakes; we can't wait to come back!

- Ursula, August 2022

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. It certainly is a truly special place and we are glad you thought so too. It’s nice to know you found all the local information we have provided helpful. You would be most welcome to visit again Property Owner
Jane July 2022

“A beautiful cottage which was spotlessly clean.”

Gorgeous views - very comfortable beds and bedding - a real home from home with everything you need. If you are a family that need a garden this probably isn’t the place for you - there is a little yard where we sometimes sat to take in the views and have a meal. Easy reach to beauty spots

- Jane, July 2022

We are so pleased you found the place to be spotless and with gorgeous views. We understand your point about families wanting outside space which is why we went to great lengths to make sure the photos of the property were as accurate as they could possibly be - including the outside space. The description also states “small outside terrace”. Once again though thank you for the feedback and the lovely comments. Property Owner
Peter July 2022

“Very nice cottage, good design and decor and well equipped.”

Lovely views across the bay. Owner very kindly left a bottle of wine for us.

- Peter, July 2022

We are very happy you enjoyed your stay and glad you also loved the views as much as we do Property Owner
Gilian June 2022

“I stayed at Moorhurst Cottage for a week recently with my sister.”

We both thoroughly enjoyed our time there, especially as the weather was very kind. The cottage, (which is actually a 2 storey flat), has been very tastefully renovated and decorated. It was very comfortable and well equipped and although the kitchen is quite small, we managed to do what we needed to do. The views across Morecambe Bay are stunning and an ever changing vista as the tide comes and goes. The cottage was very clean and our only criticism would be that there is only a small paved area to sit out on with a few pots of plants and a picnic-type table. (We did discover a couple of fold-up camping-type chairs in the utility cupboard.) The view is wonderful from there but it did not create the best impression when we first arrived as the key safe is near the back door which gives onto the terrace. A lot of dead leaves had blown in, probably due to the high winds we have had recently but which had not been cleared away. It is a fabulous area to visit with easy access to the Lake District. Although quite a small town, Grange-over-Sands has a number of high quality food shops with plenty of cafes and watering holes. Other towns such as Kendal and Ulverston are not far away. There is a small railway station at Kent’s Bank which is also on a bus route but neither buses nor trains are very frequent. We would both be very happy to return to Moorhurst Cottage in the future.

- Gilian, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback which we always act on!! The leaves! Moorhurst back door loves to collect them in any wind from all of the trees in the entire Grange over Sands area - or at least it feels like it sometimes! The majority appear to whip under the small gate so we are trying to see if we can put something on the bottom to stop their ingress and then also increase our leaf patrols! It is a never ending job - sadly even in summer! Kent’s bank railway is also a hidden gem giving access to so many places! You can even take push bikes on it!! Once again thank you for the comments and we would welcome you back anytime. If you do, and there is a problem like the leaves again, just let us know and we will sort it immediately. Property Owner
Gill June 2022

“Best place I've stayed in years!”

Stunning views, thoughtful, high spec design, beautifully clean and well equipped. Quiet, peaceful, location right on the estuary and 8mins walk to Kent Banks Station so really easy base to explore the 'Lake District Peninsula'. We had breakfast on the terrace looking out over the bay. Lovely walk into Grange along the promenade. Excellent attention to detail and nice touches...binoculars, OS map, bottle of wine, selection of books about the area and history of the cottage. Book if you get the chance!

- Gill, June 2022

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback Property Owner
Andrew June 2022

“Well what can I say?”

? Moorhurst cottage was a delight to send a week there. The cottage itself was clean .Its was bright and airy.The views crossed the bay are lovely (on a clear day). We will definitely be back on the future

- Andrew, June 2022

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It means a lot that you enjoyed it as much as we do Property Owner
Priscilla April 2022

“I WAS DISAPPOINTED AS IT IS MORE A FLAT THAN A COTTAGE IT HAD A GARDEN FLAT ...”

I WAS DISAPPOINTED AS IT IS MORE A FLAT THAN A COTTAGE IT HAD A GARDEN FLAT UNDER IT THE TV WAS RIGHT ABOVE THERE BED ROOM SO I COULD NOT WATCH IT ON A NIGHT AS I HAVE THE SOUND UP THE PATIO WAS SMALL AND LOOKED OVER TEN DUST BINS THERE WAS NO WHERE TO COOK PROPERLY AS THERE IS NO WORK SPACE

- Priscilla, April 2022

Thank you for your feedback. The photos of the property are exactly as per the description. The building does have another property below which has been sound proofed to prevent noise affecting them leaving the above two story cottage free to enjoy the amazing views of Morecambe bay and the ever changing nature on the salt marshes. We love sitting out at the benches and watching the tide flood or ebb so don’t really notice other things to be honest. Thank you for noting the cottage was extremely comfortable and spotless. Property Owner
Brian April 2022

“Beautiful cottage only failure upstairs toilet but rest lovely”

- Brian, April 2022

We are pleased to hear you liked the cottage. We know the toilet is bijou but we felt actually having a toilet upstairs would be greatly received. When the cottage was reconfigured and renovated every effort was made to fit one in the design saving guests having to go downstairs in the night. Thank you for acknowledging the cottage is beautiful. Property Owner
S March 2022

“Moorhurst Cottage which has the most stunning view across the Arnside Estuary is extremely stylish and well resourced.”

Simply one of the best we have stayed in.

- S, March 2022

Thank you that is so kind. We are glad everything was to your liking and you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Jackie February 2022

“Fantastic! The cottage was one of the best we have stayed in and was very clean, comfortable and of a high spec.”

Excellent bedding, beds and towels. Great shower. We totally loved the views and the whole very relaxing stay. We will be back again! And again! Wonderful.

- Jackie, February 2022

We are glad you enjoyed your well deserved break and Moorhurst was everything you could have wished for. We would love it if you stayed again. Property Owner
Hilary February 2022

“Everything you could need for a cosy and comfortable stay.”

The location is peaceful and the vista ever changing. Close proximity to the promenade path into Grange made for just enough walking to make coffee and cake at the Hazelmere tearooms a great half way stop. Kents Bank station just down the hill meant we hardly used the car- Ulverston 11 minutes away over the estuary. Moorhurst was just what we needed after months of staying at home, and it didn’t disappoint.

- Hilary, February 2022

We are over the moon that you enjoyed your stay at Moorhurst. You do have to stay to appreciate all that the Cottage and location offers. We are glad you love it as much as we do! Property Owner
Sandra January 2022

Carol January 2022

“Have stayed here before, we return as it’s a fabulous cottage with great access to train and nearby attractions.”

However on this visit our evenings spoilt due to not being able to hear the TV?!? No remote supplied for TV just the Sky Remote which did not alter volume, went into settings to pair the remote but with no luck. We think owners have put a “hotel mode” on tv to stop having it too loud, but the volume set was ridiculously low, we could not hear a thing on Netflix or Disney+. Our evenings planned spoilt as we always spend them with a meal followed by board games then finish off with a film. Very disappointed and frustrating to say the least on this stay @ Moorhurst. We also feel in 2022 it’s about time a somewhat larger TV could be installed it is extremely small and has been to he same TV for some years now.

- Carol, January 2022

We are sorry you experienced problems with the volume control on the TV.The Sky controller works both the TV & Sky. We know our maintenance team tried to help you with the problem but as you didn't call them back we assumed the issue had been resolved. Our team have been in today and resolved it. Clearly there is an intermittent software fault between the TV and the new Sky Box. So we have taken this opportunity to order a new TV to resolve the problem. Property Owner

Very comfortable and great location for visiting the lakes. The view over the estuary was a bonus great sunrises and sunsets. Highly recommended this cottage will be back. Thanks for making our holiday fantastic.

- Maxine, August 2021
Richard August 2021

“Upon our arrival the cleaners turned up.”

This was around 1645hrs with a 1700hr checking. We were subsequently 20mins late getting in. The clean felt rushed and not covid secure. No tea towels left only one and half rolls of toilet paper for three guests for a week? The pillows on beds were unusable to offer no support. Luckily we had bought our own. The cushion covers on the sofas smelt unpleasant. The location was very good as a point to explore the area and the view was lovely.

- Richard, August 2021

We are sad to hear your stay didn’t meet your expectations. Thank you for highlighting the problem with the cleaning company as we would not have known. We are now delving in to prevent this problem occurring again. Once again, we are sorry you had this inconvenience on this occasion as this is not the standard we strive towards at Moorhurst Cottage.

About the location

GRANGE-OVER-SANDS

Cartmel 2 miles; Lake Windermere 8 miles; Kendal 10 miles.

The charming Edwardian resort of Grange-over-Sands is set between the Lake District fells and Morecambe Bay and offers one of the mildest climates in the north of England. Formerly a small fishing village, the introduction of the Furness Railway transformed Grange-over-Sands into a fashionable Edwardian resort. Today, the town has much to offer the visitor including a traffic-free promenade, delightful ornamental gardens, golf courses, brass band concerts and excellent bird watching. Just a short drive away are Lake Windermere (8 miles), the villages of Bowness-on-Windermere and Hawkshead, which still retain the charm and character that has endeared them to so many, and the home of sticky toffee pudding, Cartmel, with its famous racecourse and the L’Enclume restaurant, which has been voted the 4th best restaurant in the UK. Other attractions in the area include Levens Hall, with its Elizabethan Hall and world famous topiary gardens, Holker Hall, Furness Abbey, Sizergh Castle, a National Trust medieval house and gardens, and Conishead Priory, a Gothic revival country house. There is also the 25 mile Cistercian Way which starts at Grange over Sands. Set amidst the southern lakes, the attractive town of Grange-over-Sands makes a superb base from which to enjoy the whole of this magical area.

Note: Max 4 adults and 1 child upto the age of 12.
