  • Emma

    The perfect base for our family holiday in the Lakes. The cottage was clean, warm and had everything we needed. Even scales to weigh the flour for pancakes!! Great situation for day trips around the lakes, only a short hop to Windermere and within easy distance of Coniston. We had some lovely walks locally as well and the swim spot you recommended was really tranquil. I didn't quite manage to get in though, just.a bit too cold for me in February!

  • Becky

    All beds were extremely comfortable, great log burner, well equipped kitchen and the best welcome/info book I’ve ever experienced! Great location too.

  • Natasha

    Very clean and well presented and well stocked with all the kitchen essentials etc. Very comprehensive info pack was provided. We based ourselves here for a week so we could spend some time with our daughter at Lancaster University which was only a 40 mins drive away. We did lots of great walks local to the cottage and was really lucky with bright November weather, the autumn scenery was just stunning. Would highly recommend this cottage
