Lovely property - very clean and tidy. Great space with private parking. Fab location for us for the football Would definitely recommend

Superb 3 Bedroom Sandstone Home with private Lake
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Abbots Moss. It was last minute (same day booking) and everything was ready and in order. The house was definitely a home away from home which is exactly what I am looking for. We have two children and a very well behaved golden - all loved the location and the house. The grounds and lake are exquisite and so peaceful. The lounge area was beautifully decorated with sofas I would purchase for my own home. Linens are also something I look for and the beds were all lovely. We enjoyed the area, eating out at some local recommendations, visiting Hadrian's Wall, completing our first family Wainwright summit! Thank you Tamar. We would love to return!

Water views, log burner, walking, fishing, sailing
This little place is gorgeous, a little gem. So peaceful and calm, in a beautiful location. The house is done so well, and has everything you could need. Really cosy inside, and a great outside area outside too - loved having a cuppa and watching the little lambs jump around ❤️ Emma was such an amazing host, the instructions on the place she left was so through and such good information on the local area - wish we could have stayed longer! Thanks so much!!

Quakers Field View
Second time staying at Lindsays. Spot on as always! Thank you again

Spacious Family House 4BR with parking & views
Sandown House made our summer visit to the Lake District enjoyable. Space for our immediate family and extended family and friends. We nicknamed it the upside down house because the bedrooms are on the ground floor and the kitchen and living rooms on the top floor. Plenty of parking, walking distance to all that Bowness-on-Windermere has to offer. We think the on suite bathrooms are tiny, but we are tall people (6’and 6’4”) other than that plenty of space to stretch out. Lovely welcome hamper upon our arrival added a nice touch from the owners.

Luxurious and Peaceful Lakeside House, Clitheroe
Stunning house and location we tagged this on to the end of a Blackpool trip so the adults could relax and recharge will definitely be back

Osprey Boathouse your luxury water side retreat
Fantastic accomodation, right on the lake with loads of thoughtful treats on arrival. Just what we wanted! Very close to bustling Bowness but also a short hop to tranquility of west shore. We enjoyed kayaking around the islands from our doorstep and took bikes on car ferry and visited Wray castle. Our teenage lads loved the footgolf 5mins from house too. Loads of great walks from nearby. We drove to grasmere (20 min) and did Fairfield horseshoe. Perfect base for all the family. Thanks Helen!

Ansdell Hideaway
Absolute gem of a house. Mark couldn’t have been a better host. House was spotless and extremely well appointed. Ansdell is a perfect spot as it’s easily accessible to Lytham and close to Fairhaven. My family lives in Lytham and when there is a big get together we sometimes need to find extra accommodation. This has been the best one we have found so far. Thank you Mark.

Stunning Character Property with hot tub & SAUNA
I booked this property to celebrate my fiancé’s 30th birthday with family. Everyone loved the house and everything that came with it. We struggled a little to find the property but Julie was helpful over the phone. Julie & her husband welcomed us and had kindly set up beers in an ice bucket for arrival which was a lovely start. All the rooms / living room / games room / kitchen all very clean and tidy. The kitchen had everything to cook easily & big fridge for all the food for everyone. Iron & iron board / hairdryer easily found. We had trouble lighting the fire on the outdoor table but they were quickly round and rectified it and got it going. We thought it was great that the wood / coal / fire starters were included as we did use the fire pit and BBQ multiple times. The games room was brilliant, the pool table and darts board was a hit! We visited Kendal for some lunch which was nice and close by. The dogs loved it. Overall, everyone has come away very happy, it was

Wythop School, Lake District
Kim had prepared a lovely stay for my family & friends The house was great for hosting everybody, had cosy rooms and was great for dog-walking I’d love to stay again

NEW-BERKELEY House - 5 Star - Lake View Luxury
Our family view is that this particular holiday accommodation and its location were pretty much perfect. The interior of the house has been beautifully designed to create a really inviting, relaxing living space across all the rooms - kitchen, lounge, bathrooms and bedrooms. The furnishings and fittings installed were of a very high quality. Likewise the garden/decking areas offer lovely views of the lake and ideal outdoor dining/sunbathing spots. It’s also worth mentioning that we made good use of the specially curated list of walking and dining recommendations left for us by the hosts, and were thoroughly impressed by those we tried - particularly Homeground Coffee for breakfast and baked goods (yum!) and Gilpin Spice for a wonderful dining experience. All in, this was a highly enjoyable holiday trekking in and around Lake Windermere, then heading back ‘home’ to the serene environment of Berkeley House. Highly recommend!

The Lazy Fish, Lake District
Delightful place to stay. Comfortable, warm and well-equipped. Good parking. Friendly and helpful hosts. Perfect for exploring the Lake District.

Spacious, comfortable Lodge near Carnforth
We had such a fabulous stay at Carole’s place in Warton. The lodge was immaculate and so well equipped with everything we needed. The location was quiet, private and set around a lovely small lake. 30 minute drive to Windermere and 15 minutes to Lancaster. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again in the future.

Country Cottage at Jenkinsons Place
Our favourite place to stay in the lakes, it has everything we need - cosy cottage and gorgeous area. Hosts are always so helpful and accommodating. We can’t wait to come back, thank you for another lovely holiday.

Sunny Brae, Windermere Cottage
Lovely accommodation thank you

Kiln Brow Retreat, cosy place to stay.
We are amazed and pleased with the set up of the house. It was surprisingly spacious enough to accommodate us. Words is not enough to describe the Kiln Brow Retreat. Thank you again!

3 bed cottage Ravenglass - perfect for Scafell Pike!
The location of the home was beautiful with a beach nearby and only a short drive the Scafell pike. The home itself was very nice, comfortable and welcoming with everything you need to relax and unwind after a day of hiking.

We had an amazing stay in the Windermere property. It was spacious and very clean with a modern finish! Craig was a great host, very responsive and all information that was given was clear and concise. We would definitely book again thank you!

PearTree Cottage 4 miles Skipton
Had a great few days staying at Nicks. The cottage has been sympathetically restored and had everything we needed. The village itself is in a nice location and is surrounded by beautiful countryside with easy access to the great outdoors. Lots of information provided by Nick kept us occupied during our stay. We look forward to returning in the not too distant future.

Fern Bank, Wasdale, Cumbria for Walkers and Hikers

Bassenthwaite Lake Old Smoke House
Annabel is a great person and very helpful. She suggested few places to visit, which comes out worthy to visit. She is very responsive with all of our questions. I definitely want to visit this place again soon. It’s a perfect getaway from crowds and spend some time with nature without any disturbances.

White Craggs, Windermere
Great stay with the family. Parking good. House was lovely and clean. Good location. Small problem with kitchen tap which was sorted very quickly

Brandlehow *Hot Tub Hire Available*
Charming big house in an incredible location We spent a week-long family vacation in this house and really enjoyed it. The location directly at the lake was amazing. Although it is very remote, we hardly used the car as there are a lot of nice walks you can do from the house. Additionally, there is a jetty just two minutes walking distance from the house where a ferry to Keswick stops. The house is nice and very large. while the kitchen is very cosy, the furniture in the rest of the house is rather basic and not particularly charming or stylish. It's all about the location.
