Part of the house was also used as a Post Office until 2009. In 2012, the owners stopped offering bed & breakfast accommodation and expanded the property to include, what was the Post Office, and it then became a large self-catering holiday home. For a large majority of the time of the building, it has been welcoming guests to the Grange-Over-Sands area.

Lots of fun decor and things for the kids to explore and play with. The area is lovely, with lots to do and see. The walk back from the town centre will certainly get your heart racing (very steep) The bedrooms are large but the double beds are small and awfully creaky and springy. An upgrade to king size with decent matresses would make a big difference. The property is old, so there are lots of creaks and uneven floors, which adds character but does make a lot of noise when walking about upstairs.The ensuite in our room needs updating, the shower is old and not the cleanest (a bit of balck mould around the showerhead and controls)The listing states TVs in the bedrooms - there aren't any, but we didn't really mind. The kitchen knives are blunt, and reading the previous reviews there's an ongoing issue with a horribly sticky surface on the dining table. All it needs is a vinyl cloth over the table.All the above are just little niggles, overall the property was great and we had a lovely time. ##### Gemma S.

Dining table very sticky but other than that everything else spot on. Promenade in grange disappointing - wanted to catch full moon but no lights meant we had to walk on the road. ##### Kaushik R.
