Had a very peaceful time in the cottage. It was well supplied and attractively furnished. The owners had left a gift for our arrival and the heating on… Very cosy and comfortable. The heating system was easy to use and quick to respond. We visited the local towns of Bowness and Ambleside regularly, where we were able to buy food supplies, and do some other shopping.We had a few small recommendations for the owners, which we left behind. Overall, very nice and relaxing. 😊 ##### Sophie Carter This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Andy Nov 7, 2019 #### Pros: Great location for exploring the Lake District. Pros: Great location for exploring the Lake District. Cottage was quiet and mostly comfortable. Price was reasonable. Cons: Poor communication by owners before arrival - didn't answer calls/respond to texts. Mattress very uncomfortable. Shower very unpredictable. Heating does not appear adequate (thankfully the weather was mild while we were there). Superficially clean in areas you can see - behind the bed was filthy! ##### Andy ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosemary T. Jul 8, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A wonderful break I really enjoyed my stay. Property management was warm, welcoming and kind. Beautiful cottage and setting ##### Rosemary T.

It is furnished to a very high standard. It was very clean and comfortable. It is quite small but perfect for two people . It is attached to the farmers house so if you want complete isolation , this is not for you. Having said that the family are very quiet and there is no intrusion . The only thing that could be improved ( minor point) is there could be a few more pots /pans / wok for cooking . The location is amazing with hills and amazing views on your doorstep . It is not in walking distance of windermire as it is only 30 mins walk but on a road with no foot path , so would be difficult to walk back after dark . I completely recommend this cottage and the owners are very helpful and friendly . I would come again . ##### Jenny ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Preston Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Brighton-Hotels-Preston-Park-Hotel.h34313.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [Stapleford Park Country House Hotel and Sporting Estate](https://www.expedia.ca/Melton-Mowbray-Hotels-Stapleford-Park-Country-House-Hotel-And-Sporting-Estate.h459185.Hotel-Information) > > [New Park Manor](https://www.expedia.ca/Brockenhurst-Hotels-New-Park-Manor.h7509463.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mj Kingsway, Cleethorpes Seafront](https://www.expedia.ca/Cleethorpes-Hotels-OYO-Hotel-MJ-Kingsway.h24166027.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waterfront Lodges](https://www.expedia.ca/Bedworth-Hotels-The-Waterfront-Lodges.h27598651.Hotel-Information) > > [Hedley Villa Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Royal-Leamington-Spa-Hotels-Hedley-Villa-Guest-House.h22880933.Hotel-Information) > > [Beautiful 3-bedrooms Static Caravan Holiday Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Clacton-On-Sea-Hotels-Beautiful-3-Bedrooms-Static-Caravan-Holiday-Home.h67626773.Hotel-Information) > > [The White Hart Royal Hotel, Moreton-in-Marsh](https://www.expedia.ca/Moreton-In-Marsh-Hotels-White-Hart-Royal-Hotel.h3848404.Hotel-Information) > > [Trivelles Hotels - Eccles New Road](https://www.expedia.ca/Salford-Hotels-Trivelles-Hotels-Eccles-New-Road.h11923793.Hotel-Information) > > [YotelAIR London Gatwick ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Yotel-Air-London-Gatwick.h18969729.Hotel-Information) > > [The George](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h45140643.Hotel-Information) > > [Kings Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stansted-Hotels-Kings-Arms-Hotel.h57669296.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Taunton House B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Swanage-Hotels-Taunton-House-BB.h3968915.Hotel-Information) > > [Warm and Snuggly 8-berth Static in Essex](https://www.expedia.ca/Clacton-On-Sea-Hotels-Captivating-3-Bed-Cottage-In-Essex.h93535374.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [Spacious 3-bed House in Brighton With Parking](https://www.expedia.ca/Brighton-Hotels-Stunning-3-Bed-House-In-Brighton.h102317245.Hotel-Information) > > [Lobster Pot, Bridlington by Marston's Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Bridlington-Hotels-Lobster-Pot.h27478820.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ceramic House](https://www.expedia.ca/Brighton-Hotels-The-Ceramic-House.h48609992.Hotel-Information) > > [Middle Flass Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Clitheroe-Hotels-Middle-Flass-Lodge.h4531075.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/High-Wycombe-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32463857.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel St Ives](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Harbour-Hotel.h175599.Hotel-Information) > > [Avalon House B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Lyndhurst-Hotels-Avalon-House-BB.h22560167.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Salcombe](https://www.expedia.ca/Salcombe-Hotels-Salcombe-Harbour-Hotel-Spa.h19504246.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Yew Tree Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Coniston-Hotels-Yew-Tree-Cottage.h26995444.Hotel-Information) > > [Tides Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Pevensey-Hotels-Tides-Cottage.h42241061.Hotel-Information)
