"It was a dream come true to visit Yew Tree Farm."
It is more beautiful than anticipated. We were very comfortable in the cottage. Plenty of room for the two of us. The accommodations were very cozy. The farm is stunning. Loved watching the sheep and enjoyed the cats and dogs roaming about. Memories to treasure. Thank you.

"Overall the accommodation was lovely."
We were very disappointed with the WiFi strength as it was very intermittent and kept cutting out. My ptnr joined us for the break and had to work during the day, this proved very difficult for him due to the poor wifi. We also couldn’t use it to watch anything on the fire stick which we took with us as a back up just incase the ‘sky tv’ which was advertised wasn’t up to standard. The sky tv was rubbish, you needed a pin to access anything decent to watch which was not available in the property, we asked the owners who work and live on site and they had no clue and weren’t really bothered. So the evenings were pretty boring with two teenagers who were only able to watch eastenders or come dine with me. The property is advertised as having WiFi and sky tv…whilst this is true the services are not of a suitable standard to be able to use them effectively. Also whilst I appreciate the property is part of a working farm it was a little unsettling and disruptive being able to hear the owners conversations as if they were in the next room as they’re property was attached to the main bedroom. Overall was lovely and picturesque but by no means perfect

"We spent Christmas at Yew Tree Farm, it’s an incredible experience, as it’s a Grade 2 listed building, set in the most beautiful scenic area and also a working farm."
I felt privileged to be able to stay in such a historic building.
Inside it’s decorated in William Morris wallpaper, with creeky floors and beams and wonderful old furniture.
The bathrooms, all three of them are well equipped with strong pressure showers and one has a wonderful huge bath.
Three bedrooms, two with four poster beds, and one twin have crisp white linen and heavy duvets all of exceptional quality.
There’s a well presented dining room, which I dressed for Christmas with paper chains and fairy lights.
There was a Christmas tree provided and little Christmassy touches throughout.
The living room with an open fire was cozy and comfortable and you could almost feel the history of the place.
Every attention to detail with lamps and fittings all appropriate to the building.
There was a secure stone walled private garden, where my Schnauzer dog played and around the side of the property a hot tub which was the perfect place to spend an evening.
The kitchen has everything you could need to prepare a full Christmas dinner or any other meal you may care to make.
The property is well situated, for walks and close enough to visit Ambleside and Hawkshead.
The owners work and live on site but are busy, and you really only see them about their jobs, though it was nice to know they were about if we needed them.
I would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking to stay in a place both beautiful, and full of charm.

"We had a great stay, ideal location, so atmospheric and ideal for those who like to travel back in time and imagine themselves living in another reality like I do."
I wish I'd brought period costume with me but there was sadly no room in my case. Also my 14yr old brought me back to reality when the WiFi kept turning off and there were no instructions as to the location of the router. All it needed was to be turned on and off. Previous families have suggested updating the guest information book but I notice this hasn't happened yet. This would save guests having to bother the tenants. For anyone reading this it's next to the switch for the lamp on the landing behind the magnificent chest. The tenants were very helpful and friendly, very busy people but happy to help even when in the middle of a workshop. Also they do have bus loads of tourists (like us) attending on occasion so do look out for friendly Americans requesting to use the loo. Maybe a sign on the external toilet door for those guests would be helpful? Although, we were happy to oblige by allowing them to use one of the 3 bathrooms in the cottage as had no idea what alternatives there were beyond the flower bed or a bush! Also you never know when you might get caught short yourself! My only other point of concern was the abundance of fruit flies in the kitchen. This must surely be a season thing? The cottage kitchen was very clean. The cottage is by a stream (may be irrelevant!?) and I note the mesh on the front door of the tenants cottage. Perhaps such a measure might be considered at Yew Tree, although may spoil the old world charm for photos, would potentially stop the appearance of 20 dead flies in your wine. We made sure food was covered and the bin emptied at least 2 times in the week but still every morning it was fly armageddon in the kitchen and the hoover came out. The beds were really comfy, loved the large bath and the hot tub was fab after an evening swim in Coniston water or a long walk. All of this added to our adventure in the Lake District and I feel very grateful and privileged to have been able to experience such a special place with all its quirks and charms.

"Overpriced and underwhelming."
Firstly to clarify my wife and I enjoyed our break and the cottage was lovely and we did reflect this in the visitors book.
However, the cottage is ‘connected’ to the tenant farmers’ accommodation so you can hear them ‘in conversation’ and ‘smell their cooking’ which distracts from your perceived privacy during the stay.
Previous feedback has commented on ‘farm noise’ which there was very little of and was quite pleasant when you could ‘hear’’ the animals. However there are lots of ‘comings and goings’ throughout the day….people calling at the butchers, various ‘seminars’ and ‘experience groups’ visiting throughout the week. An example of this would be on our last evening sitting in the garden with a glass of wine when an amateur theatrical group turn up and start getting dressed up to start filming….so overall hardly secluded and private. I have stayed at ‘holiday inn express hotels’ where there is less ‘going on’ and have been more ‘relaxed’. With this in mind I would preferably pay far less to stay somewhere more ‘commercial’ where you at least understand what you’re ‘paying for’.
The cottage is beautiful with very good facilities e.g. bathrooms/showers etc but I think you would be hard pushed to ‘comfortably accommodate’ six people in the lounge or cater for this number with the kitchen.
The ‘fly in the ointment’ for us was when we were asked if it would be okay for the decking to be removed and replaced in the ‘hot tub’ area at the side of the cottage, to which we agreed without fully grasping the impact this would have. The decking had apparently been there for 13 years…so hindsight would suggest this could have been done at an earlier or more convenient time…during one of the many recent lockdowns perhaps? We realised the impact when the ‘joiner’ knocked our door at 10 past 8 in the morning to ‘check that we were up’ so that he could start his chainsaw and start cutting out the old decking…..we opted to go out for a walk returning at half three to find this being ‘loaded’ into a trailer with the consequent ‘backwards and forwards’ this entails. On another evening we were ‘put off’ from using the hot tub due to a ‘load of’’…yet to be used decking perched at the side of the building around it.
Perhaps most disappointing of all, was on our day of leaving we had to be ‘clear’ of the cottage by 10 in the morning….but there was no one there to ‘hand over to….both tenants were out, one presumably working his farm and the other out in her van. Ironically there was (yet) another visitor going about the farm getting ready to go horse riding.
If you are considering this cottage as an option it is a beautiful house with in a lovely setting, but is definitely a ‘business’ attempting to generate income from several areas of which you are only one. If you are looking for ‘picture postcard’ this may not be it….it wasn’t for us….we just felt like we were there for the ‘requisite week’ before being ‘turned around’ for the ‘next punter’ which may well be you. Definitely not worth the 2k plus that we paid. Disappointing overall.

"We stayed at Yew Tree Farm Cottage 2nd - 9th October 2021."
Upon arriving, we thought it was paradise. A very old building, it was like stepping back in time. Because we arrived late we were grateful to be there. I did see a previous review saying about the lack of oven trays so we brought our own, and thank god we did. I am not sure the kitchen has been stocked with any new form of an appliance, utensil, or accessory since 1990! There were really not enough mugs or glasses for 4 people, let alone 6. And, we didn't think the glasses or mugs were clean. Then, the fun really started when my partner and I, who had the main bedroom, woke up to find about 8 wasps in the bedroom. By the 2nd morning, we had killed about 20 wasps, which was not fun, as my mum is highly allergic, and didn't have an epi-pen, as well as our 10-month-old puppy which kept trying to eat them. I rang the people on the 3rd day, after 45 mins of standing in rooms trying to get a signal. The man came around, shone a torch, and explained there was not much he could do and if we had killed 20 that was probably the nest gone. A bit shocked at the lack of concern, I repeat that there is no signal so anyone staying who got stung and needed medical attention would struggle to get an ambulance and we had no idea where the nearest medical centre was. I then had to call the heart of the lakes on the 5th day, whose response was equally as lacking as the man who had come over a few days earlier. NO one was interested. So we spent our holiday with 57 wasps in total by the end of our stay. Furthermore, the internet kept going down, so don't stay here if you need to work while on holiday. Also, we loved that we could take a dog, but the dogs on the site liked to defecate wherever they pleased, which meant dog turds outside your car door, outside the cottage gate, so if you don't like stepping in a steaming dog turd, I'd suggest a torch in the evenings and minding your step as you go. Dont expect a lie in either as you'll have lawn mowing before 9 am, barking dogs, and other farm work going-ons in the early hours. The hot tub has no cover over it, so if it rains you'll get a good soaking, as well as it being filthy. We didn't see anyone clean it with the daily chemicals that a hot tub should have. Oh and mind all the low beams that you'll regularly smash your head on as you walk about in both the day and night. Overall, if you love wasps in your bedroom, filth and dog turds, as well as an unclean hot tub then this is 100% the place to stay. Nice location, but we won't ever be staying here again. Heart of the Lakes, your customer service was a disgrace.

Jo runs a Herdwick Experience - learning about the history of the area, the establishment of Herdwick sheep and Belted Galloways to the farm, the history and general knowledge of Herdwicks and how Yew Tree Farm ensure their livestock is ethically farmed from start to finish was really interesting & informative.
We then continued our experience with a tour of the farms land, taking in the different sights and sounds, spotting different birds and wildlife, whilst meeting random animals enroute, like Skippy the goat who is extremely friendly!

Chicken, turkey, cats and dogs were a daily occurrence in the charming English cottage garden at the front of the property. It’s a very old property and so comes with all the charms you would expect it to have. There are a lot of walks right on your door step. Wifi is pretty inexistant so if you want to do some offline work and emails it’s all good, but don’t expect to make a zoom meeting on this wifi or watch Netflix. That being said nearby Coniston has excellent 4G. This probably perfect for those looking to disconnect.
