"An Excellent property to thank whole family on my Retirement so wanted something 'special' which this lived up to fully, with very little found wanting."
All facilities used to the full including hot tub modern kitchen (as we ate in most days) but also did eat at Cuckoo Brow Inn a short walk away on a couple of nights, which we would also recommend. Host did provide a 'Meet and greet' on our Arrival, which was most welcome and overall would highly recommend (especially for a special occasion) Great views towards Windermere to front and Coniston Falls to rear giving instant 'weather update' We did benefit from great weather most of the week we were there, but accommodation would suit any weather. Property very pieceful whcih was ideal (Windermere area OK but the quiet was just what we were after) and little traffic even though close to Ferry road Close to Hill Top and other attractions with many 'Walk' options also nearby

"Property was more than we hoped for and our party of ten, aged 8 months to 68 years, a had a great week."
The house was really lovely and comfortable, a d a great base for exploring a part of the Lakes we didn't know well..As we planned to cook a lot we appreciated the well-appointed kitchen and contents. Mark greeted us on arrival and couldn't have been more helpful. as soon as we can gather the whole clan together again we will go back, though it may be a few years away!

"The house was above our expectations, we were all in awe of how fabulous this house was."
Great location for walking and views. The owner Mark takes really good care of his home and we couldn’t fault anything. The only downside is that we couldn’t stay longer
Thanks so much Caroline. It was our pleasure to accommodate yourself and your family. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

Such a wonderful setting, we had everything in the house - you've thought of everything you'd possibly need. The local pub - the Cuckoo Brow serves great beer and excellent food!

The residence has been refurbished to the highest possible standard and offers incredible lake views from almost every room. Enter the property through the back door, where outdoor gear can be left in a convenient boot room.
Step into the first of two living rooms to relax in front of a cosy fire, the second sitting room features sumptuous furnishings and a second Smart TV.
A modern kitchen / diner provides the perfect space to prepare celebratory meals, which guests can enjoy around a large family dining table.
Lazy mornings can be enjoyed in this social space with a Nespresso coffee machine and breakfast bar, if the sun is shining step through French doors and out in the furnished garden.

Families will enjoy a day trip to Lakeside, where a steam train awaits for a magical ride through Lakeland countryside and an aquarium provides great rainy day entertainment.
