A little bit dated but perfectly serviceable property. Location is excellent, with all the local amenities easily within a few minutes walk. Just off the main thoroughfare it's pretty quiet. Handy to have car parking right outside with a residential permit supplied. Be aware there's no back door or outdoor space with it, you're right out into the street at the front door. Overall a pretty good place to spend a few days which I'd be happy to stay in again if I return to Windermere. It would be nice if there was a little starter pack of tea/coffee/sugar and milk, though the Co-op is only a minute away.

A lovely cottage right in the heart of Windermere. We had a great week in the lakes and Nu-Holme was at the centre of everywhere we wanted to be. Most places to visit were only 30 - 40 minutes away. The parking permit was a great addition and we got parked close to the house most days. Would definitely stay here again.
