Lovely cottage really clean spacious ideal location. There was 6 of us and it didn’t feel cramped at all everything you need the accommodation provided
Three generations of our family stayed here for a wonderful week in this super property. Super comfy beds for a great night's sleep after days out in the outdoors. Absolutely fabulous
We have visited Geltsdale East Wing a number of times over the years and thoroughly enjoy staying at this beautiful property. The apartment has undergone further refurbishment since our last visit, and the new bathrooms are superb. The kitchen is very well appointed for 5/6 guests. We particularly like watching the deer in the mornings from the kitchen/diner windows. The owners David and Julia are very welcoming and friendly. Wetheral station is a short walk from the property for guests arriving by train or wanting to have a car free day out, we all spent a lovely afternoon out in Hexham. ...more
Very responsive owner , lovely accomodation of high quality and great location. Everything worked properly, warm and comfortable.
The only thing the place is missing is decent wifi. The pictures you see are old pictures, the little decked patio is no longer there but that didn’t really matter because when we were outside we were making good use of the hot tub which ofcourse is now sheltered by a pergola! This place is good for if you want to get away from the world and focus on you and your partner, there is a 6 foot privacy fence surrounding with woods and a burn to the rear. Highly recommend!
Lovely cottage in a great location with everything you could need provided. Easy to find and has the best of both worlds as it is in a rural location but also near town and attractions. Motorway very handy if you wanted to go further. Hosts helpful. Carlisle is an interesting town and lakes can be reached as well as Hadrians Wall so plenty to do and see.
We had a great stay, well equipped cottage, great views, plenty of space, would definitely recommend
We had a lovely long weekend at Watson Cottage. The cottage had everything you could possibly need and it was warm and very comfortable. The hot tub was an added extra! It's a beautiful location with lots of things to do whatever the weather.
We’ve had a lovely week here at Tarn End. Gorgeous property, beautifully decorated with an amazing view. We highly recommend and will be back!
This was our first time visiting Grasmere and I think we have found our new favourite place to stay. Being all ground floor, the cottage was ideal for us with my elderly parents. The cottage is well equipped and centrally located. We enjoyed wandering around the art galleries and shops and ventured into Ambleside, Windermere and Keswick all really easy to reach by car.
Lovely location in the family estate, the accommodation over looks fields and woodland and was very well presented Access to many walks, not to far from all the well known Lakes and tourist attractions. For those who want to explore many roads off the beaten track with beautiful views . Recommended.
I called and spoke to Tracey the day before we were due to arrive and was struck by how happy she sounded that we were coming despite never having met us which served to raise the excitement we already felt. We were greeted on arrival and given lots of information on the lie of the land and places to eat and shop then entered the cosiest homely, cottage on a dreary day to find everything ready for a hot cuppa with a sweet treat. There were logs and kindling ready by the fire and fresh flowers on the table, we immediately felt so welcome! We chose our rooms, unpacked everything finding homes...more
Wonderful stay in Cosy Cottage. It certainly lives up to its name with everything we could need! Fabulous central location so we could walk to all the bars and restaurants in Ambleside. Great to have a permit for car park nearby which although busy we had no problem finding a space when needed
We stayed here for 4 nights and received a warm welcome from Gemma. There were 2 bottles of wine and biscuits waiting for us in the cottage which was a nice touch. The cottage was lovely and the grounds were beautiful and great for our 2 wee dogs who loved running about. We used the games room every day. We are thinking of going back next year. The only downside to the cottage was not having a walk in shower for my elderly mum.
Beautiful, quiet n relaxing cottage. Very private and secluded . Never slept so well. Hot tub was a great advantage in the early evenings. Staff very friendly and helpfull. Will definitely go back as wished ive of had a few fly fishing lessons. 5⭐️
Superb accommodation of a very high standard in a great location with lovely views. A perfect place to stay. Thank you.
Beautiful lakeside spot, with walks round the lake. Enjoyed breakfast on the veranda every day. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind, with many touches of luxury.
This was our fourth stay at this property and yet again it did not disappoint. Everything was perfect. It is an extremely comfortable and cosy place to stay with the most incredible views to be seen from pretty much every single window. The view from the main upstairs bedroom window is just stunning. There are so many fantastic walks on the doorstep and pooley bridge is just a five minute bus ride away ( the bus stop is a two minute walk from the property) or a 40 minute walk via the Ullswater way route. I don’t see how anyone could stay here and not absolutely love it. We stay for a week an...more
Everything was great. It was just steps from the center but quiet at night. I’d stay again in a heartbeat!
Stunning property, perfectly equipped, welcoming and comfortable. An excellent experience for our family of 10 covering 4 generations from 9 months to 90 years and our beautiful labrador. Surrounded by nature, deer in fields, house martins in eaves yet conveniently located for the Lakes, Cumbria and Northumberland. Peaceful yet fun! Great hot tub and garden.
Perfect bungalow, in a great location by the river. Great wildlife including red squirrel in garden, visit howtown hotel if you can
The Stables were spacious, well appointed more pleasant than the pictures suggest. Louise, the host, was very agreeable, even introducing our kids to pet their dog and cat. The location was quiet with very little traffic on the road. The clothes dryer was a big plus after paddling in streams and getting caught in the rain. We would gladly return.
We had a fantastic stay at the cabin! It is easily accessible from the M6 and a great base for exploring the Lake District. The cabin itself was modern and clean - we had all the amenities we needed for our stay and they were all top of the range (especially the bed and kitchen)! We loved the privacy of the cabin/hot tub and the view across the estate was incredible! We will 100% stay here again - so glad we found this gem!
Great relaxing location with peaceful surroundings and comfortable accommodation. Plenty of room for two couples to catch up and explore the area. Close access to the motorway and train station.
A week spent at Hill Cottage is a week well spent. It feels like home from home, really well kitted out with everything you could want. The quality of the cookware was really good, the speck of the oven/microwave etc was top notch. And the shower was fabulous. So a hot day climbing mountains gets washed off with ease and comfort. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here to anyone visiting the Lakes.
Lovely accommodation with everything needed for a short stay. Clean and cosy with some nice little touch’s ie bottle of fizz, basket of jacuzzi, throw, marshmallows etc. Jacuzzi in private garden, nestled near a stream, saw an owl and squirrel on our visit. My husband had a lovely 60th weekend. Thank you. We will visit again for sure.
We love Grasmere and are so pleased we found this cottage. It's extremely spacious and central in Grasmere, everywhere is within walking distance and the parking permit means you don't have to worry about finding somewhere to park. Would definitely stay again.
The Shepherds Hut is very cosy and great for getting away from it all. Maes Tearoom next door is fabulous and serves amazing food. I tried the bacon roll which was fully loaded plus the Sunday lunch which was truly wonderful. The welcome victoria sponge and rocky road were also to die for. The hut is compact so I was glad fo stay there alone as I personally feel it would have been cramped for 2 but then again I know some people would love it and find it very romantic. I absolutely love the area hence choosing to stay here and it did not disappoint. The only glitch was Storm Lilian but you can ...more
I would highly recommend Monkhouse Hill to anyone looking for accommodation in the North West lakes. The accommodation was spotless and very comfortable and the hot tub added an extra element of luxury that was perfect after a long day of exploring. The site is very well maintained and has stunning views over the Eden Valley. I'd also highly recommend a visit to the local village Caldbeck.
This is our second stay in the cottage this year and hoping to visit again soon. Great location about one mile outside Grasmere. The views from the cottage are amazing. Cottage itself is clean and comfortable with it's own parking.Gardens are kept tidy.
Great service arranging our holiday and a few queries from Gail The accommodation was ideal with two bedroom on each floor , both en suite Located in the centre of the village but off the main thoroughfare suites us ideally Looking forward to returning in the Autumn
Lovely, cosy lodge with great mod cons. We really enjoyed the peaceful outside space too. Perfectly located for exploring the areas around Ullswater, Penrith and the northern lakes. We would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful location,charming property ,near a small village with lovely pubs and coffee shops ,highly recommended
Fantastic location, set in front of rolling hills on a working farm. Accommodation was more than sufficient for 4 people + a dog. Clean, tidy, well presented and great views. Friendly owners too.
The house was in a great location for shops and take away. I don’t think we realised that it was right on a busy road but it was quiet through most of the night. The house was very spacious and well equipped. The kitchen was well laid out and the separate dining room was easily accessed through the kitchen. The bedrooms were comfortable and we liked the bed linen and towels. We got super customer service from Cumbrian Cottages. We enjoyed exploring a little bit of Cumbria with a trip to Carlisle and Haltwhistle. We used “Star anise” Indian take-away for one meal. It was delicious. Al...more
Lovely little well looked after cottage . The owners had thought of everything from logs ,firelighters and matches to treats and a pint of milk . Aurora on three nights a bonus
It was a very relaxing place to stay and we would definitely go back. A few maintenance and cleaning bits to sort/improve with the towel radiator not heating, some lights not working, crumbs on the sofa, black mould around the edge of the shower floor but nothing that couldn’t be quickly resolved to improve the standard of this accommodation.
we very much enjoyed our stay. we found it difficult to find Sians Retreat. This is only the name of the hut. So we were unsure if we where Sians Retreat is. the garden could be nicer.
Great stay at Bluebell (name needs updating on Cumbrian Cottages), cabin absolutely perfect and we had a fantastic time! Only small issues were the hot tub took about 2.5 hours to get hot and then stuff floated out of the pipe into the water. This is first time using a wood fired tub so not sure if that's normal. Also a lot of flies around in summer months so very difficult to have doors/windows open.
The cottage itself is welcoming and unique, as was the owner who we spoke to the next morning. We didn’t get there until late because of a storm and it was really helpful that the key was left in the door. The cottage had most things we needed for a couple of nights but a larger chopping board, sharper knives and a kitchen sponge would have been extremely useful for cooking and wiping down the kitchen. The bedrooms are very big and guests have lots of space. My daughter loved the large bed! The view from the veranda is amazing and I imagine that it’s lovely to sit out there in the summer. It w...more
Great location loads of streams mountains ect , house lovely but small bed could do with being lower , and windows are rotten , would go again but would not count small bedroom as bed is too high
The property was easily located, parking is tight but some options close by. On first sight the property was very clean and welcoming with an excellent view down over the town and surrounding hills. The space was very good for two people, kitchen facilities were good, except for the fridge which had seen better days but still worked. However, the seating around the table was uncomfortable, don't think that garden/conservatory chairs were appropriate. A place to lounge after a day out walking was appreciated. The bathroom is small, and the shower floor was a little spongy and bouncy. The...more
My wife and I stayed in mid July 2024 and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The furniture is a bit dated but comfortable. The upside down layout makes for a warm stay and we were treated to bats outside the living room window at dusk each evening. There was a welcome pack of tea coffee cakes and milk in the fridge which is always a lovely touch when it happens. There is everything in the lodge, including a dishwasher, washing machine, iron and ironing board. The double bed is very big and comfortable and a hair dryer is also available. The lodge is a bit difficult to find at first, make sure you u...more
Accommodation was comfortable. Disappointed to turn up and find no clean towels or linen. This was quickly fixed,though there was subsequent confusion when the cleaner turned up a day early. Attention to detail could be better ( some sinks blocked, instructions for rubbish could have been clearer). However, overall, this is a nice place in a lovely location, and good value for money.
