    What a lovely peaceful stay despite the horrendous weather snow wind and torrential rain we had a really lovely time even ventured into the hot tub in 70mph winds

    Hello Karen, Sorry we couldn’t get you better weather! Nonetheless it’s so lovely to hear you enjoyed your stay so much. Hopefully next time you come, the weather will be kinder. All the best, Kate and our team. Property Owner

  • "We had a great time."

    Can't believe how quiet it is especially just of the A66. I have one criticism and if I had read the description of the place better I would have realised. I was disappointed that the enclosed garden wasn't enclosed and therefore it made taking my dog out difficult. However let me explain i am in a wheelchair which unfortunately broke and I was left unable to walk my dog. An enclosed garden would have made it easier to allow him out to go to the toilet.

    Hello Esther, Thank you for your review. I’m sorry you broke your wheelchair. I’m afraid none of our cabins have an enclosed garden, we tried to keep them as open as possible. All the best, Kate. Property Owner

  • "The cabin overall was great."

    Having not been to the Lakes before, it was ideally situated to visit everywhere. A few little niggles that could be addressed though. As tea lovers, a kettle would be preferable to the hot water tap. The pillows were interesting. One was rock hard, the other super soft, difficult to get a good balance. I’m not sure the dressing gowns had been washed, as I found nasty marks inside the cuff on one. I also think that you should mention the hot tub takes forever to get hot.

    Hello Claire, Thanks for your feedback. We like our guests to have a lovely time. I’d always advise guests to mention any niggles at the time of their stay. Contact details are left for you if you wish to use them, (I could have addressed all your/ little niggles during your stay and made it even better.) The hot tub is wood fired so yes it takes time. That’s part of the joy of being outside in the fresh air at the cabins and taking in the magnificent views, whilst you get your hot tub going. Then after a little effort you can soak in the relaxing tub. We give guests instructions how to use the hot tub and how long it takes in the guest directory. All the best, Kate. Property Owner

    Our only complaint is the crockery wasn’t left clean by the previous occupants especially the coffee mugs which were sticky and sugary. The cabin itself was perfect for our stay and would stay again.

    Hello Mandy, We are happy to hear you loved Yew Tree cabin. We are sorry to hear the crockery was left less than clean by the last guests. Hope to see you again in another occasion. Kind regards, Kate. Property Owner

    Was such a beautiful, peaceful and remote getaway. Absolutely loved the personal welcome hamper! The hot tub was the highlight of the trip and of course the view was incredible. Complete opposite to London which is exactly what we wanted. Will definitely be back!

  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Yew Tree."

    Everything was thought of down to the minute detail. The facilities were superb! We loved the personal touch of the hamper (even though we left the bottle of fizz unintentionally in the fridge, this wasn’t us being rude!) and the fudge was to die for! If we were to be really picky, maybe a cover over the hot tub or gazebo, sheltering you from the rain would be ideal, although not sure if that would work with the chimney! We did manage without and still had a relaxing time in the hot tub. Thank you so much for making our stay enjoyable, we will def be back for some R&R!

    Hello Kaye, Thank you for your feedback, we’re happy to hear you thoroughly enjoyed your stay. Obviously everyone has their own ideas how to improve a place, but we thought long and hard about how we wanted the cabins to be. We decided we wanted them as open to the stars and the countryside views as possible. We look forward to welcoming you back. All the best, Kate. Property Owner

    Hello Jessica, Bless you, there’s a boiling hot water tap so no need to use a pan! (There is information in the guest directory telling guests this, in case they haven’t come across one before.)

  • "Lovely place with a great view."

    Very modern and spacious. We enjoyed our stay but there was a few things which made us feel uncomfortable. The bedding didn’t seem clean. There was a stain on top of the duvet , an eyelash extension on top of one of the pillows and also a stain on the inside of the bedding. The memory foam pillows were too hard for us but this is personal preference. The plates and cutlery were also dirty and the hot tub water was dirty.

    Hello Olivia, Glad you enjoyed your two night stay. I’m sorry to hear you thought some things weren’t clean. If you’d said something at the time I would have been happy to come and have a look and if needs be have changed things for you. It’s always better to say something at the time because you can’t rectify something once a guest has left. There are two pillows provided one is memory foam and the other is sheep’s wool so softer. Again if you’d got in touch I could have brought you a different pillow. All the best, Kate. Property Owner

Ullswater is generally considered to encompass three major villages. This includes Glenridding at the south and Pooley Bridge at the north. The second largest lake, at approximately 7.5 miles wide, Ullswater is often regarded as the most beautiful lake in the district. There is dramatic mountain scenery to the south, as well as the gentle hills of the north. This region is popular among walkers, climbers and cyclists of all levels of ability. There are various water sports for all abilities too and lots of family activities. Along with historical sites of interest, Ullswater has a strong nautical history, having been a popular sailing destination for centuries. There are marinas placed all around the lake. Plus a wide range of superb eateries and shops, sure to delight!
Also, on the west side of the lake is the beautiful Aira Force Waterfall. It is one of the National Park’s most popular natural tourist attractions. Glenridding is a particularly popular tourist attraction with mountain walkers. They visit the village to scale England’s third highest peak, Helvellyn.
