With private lake access and an abundance of character, this charming Lakeland cottage is the perfect base to explore some of The Lake District hidden gems. Ideal for those who love an adventure!

Great place as a base camp for walks

On a walking holiday in the lakes with a friend, my dog and me, weather not great so we were grateful for a tidy, clean escape from the weather. It’s in a quiet peaceful location but well positioned for access to walks and local towns. Very nice dog-friendly pub in Coniston (The Bull). Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends & family.



A fabulous stay!

We had 4 nights at Potters Wheel and it was perfect! The cottage is so cosy and we loved having the log fire! The location is fab and our dog loved having access to the lake so she could go swimming! The property was clean and tidy and we had no complaints! The bed was super comfortable! We would love to return!

Lovely cottage, great location with all the amenities we needed. Even the kitchen knives were sharp for food prep (often not the case!)

We spent a wonderful week at Potters Wheel over Christmas. The location is stunning and the accommodation beautifully presented with everything we needed for a super comfortable stay. Communication with Ross at Tarn & Fell was excellent throughout and we really appreciated all the extra touches including a lovely Christmas tree. Big thank you for making our stay extra special.

We cannot speak more highly of both the place and Tarn & Fell. Ross from Tarn & Fell was absolutely brilliant from start to finish, far more helpful than 5 stars suggests. The property was immaculate, extremely well equipped and so very comfortable. An absolutely wonderful holiday and we will certainly be using Tarn & Fell again.

The cottage is very cosy and peaceful. It was lovely watching all the different species of birds in the mornings. Everything was in the cottage that we needed. Ross provided a great service, when required. The situation of the cottage was ideal for sightseeing around the lakes. Some beautiful walks straight from the front door. We had a fabulous week. Would definitely recommend.

Potter's Wheel is immaculate. Really well appointed and comfortable with great access to a private launch onto Coniston. Ross from Tarn & Fell was incredibly helpful and communicative - ensuring we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The property itself is an amazing gateway to the Lakes - with Coniston and Ambleside both within short drives. An added bonus is some lovely walks straight from the property.

Could not recommend more highly and will definitely be back.



Lovely cottage, cosy, clean & comfortable in a beautiful lakeside location.

Potters Wheel was a perfect place for us to stay with our 2 dogs. Everything we needed was provided. The walks from the cottage are fabulous and it's a great base to explore from. The cottage itself is warm, clean and comfortable with lovely soft towels and bedding provided. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped with everything you need.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Many thanks to Ross for keeping in touch and for excellent recommendations of places to visit and eat.



A great stay!

Potters Wheel was very clean upon arrival. A lovely cottage in a very nice peaceful and quiet location. Ross's professional and friendly approach has been excellent. I would not hesitate in recommending Tarn and Fell Eascapes.
Looking forward to our next booking in December.

The property was lovely, clean and well stocked. It has a shared lake access down a short path which was amazing. It was perfect for those with a dog and looking for a peaceful break

Thank you to Ross, who provided excellent and welcoming responses from the first enquiry.
It’s easy to have a good holiday when the weather is great. We did not have good weather, but still had a lovely holiday and were able to properly relax in this traditional cottage, full of character, but with quality modern comforts and facilities. Listening to the tawny owls outside (and seeing them from time to time was a bonus. The location is very good, and access to the lake was a delight for our Labrador! Would recommend and hope to stay again.

Cannot fault anything about our stay. The cottage is beautiful with top quality fittings and in a great location.There was milk in the fridge, tea, coffee and condiments and a welcome gift. This so rarely happens these days and was so welcoming . Will definitely book again with Tarn and Fell Escapes.

Beautiful traditional cottage set within woodland and on the shores of Coniston water. Immaculate and tastefully decorated throughout. Compact but very well equipped kitchen, didn’t need anything more.
Lovely welcome gift on arrival was a nice touch.
Ross was very professional and we were so happy with our first booking at this cottage we rebooked for the following weekend.
If you want a peaceful retreat this is the cottage for you.
