DISCOVER THE SOUTH LAKES

Our cottages are in the Central and Southern lakes. They are close to all the attractions that the Lake District has to offer.

Well what about the walks? I hear you say! We love the walk to Hampsfell from Fell View and High Dam from Woodside and we round them off with a visit to The Pheasant Pub in Allithwaite and The Swan at Newby Bridge.
We visit the cottages every 6 weeks to check on them and enjoy the area, and we work very hard to provide wonderful holiday cottages where you can truly relax.

One of our favourite places to visit is Cartmel. The village store is famous for being the “Home of Sticky Toffee Pudding”

Just imagine…

Just imagine, if you stay at Woodside, you can take an early morning walk up to High Dam. One of the most peaceful lakes, that was much favoured by Alfred Wainwright where you can marvel at the solitude and serenity of this stunning location!

Or if you’re staying at Fell View stop for a coffee at one of the many cafes in the area or head to Cartmel and wander its ancient streets!

You can visit Hawkshead or Bowness on Windermere for a bit of retail therapy! All are so easy to reach.

Perhaps you’re like Hugh, my middle son, always looking for something challenging? So just imagine the fun you can have at Grizedale Forest’s  Go Ape, Segwey or mountain biking or just come for the scenery!

Beautiful homely and cosy cottage, very clean throughout. Lovely clean linens and super comfy bed and pillows. Everything you could possibly need in the house if you are wanting a quiet night in with some home cooking. Alison was always very responsive and helpful and gave great recommendations for some lovely local walks. It was also very nice that they checked in with us to check everything was ok. Felt like a real home from home. Thanks very much Alison and Brian.

Really nice, spacious cottage and host was fantastic! We were lucky enough to enjoy our wedding day in the cottage. It really made it a cosy wedding evening near the fire. We had our first dance in the spacious living area! Alison went out of her way to help us enjoy our time in the cottage. Super helpful in the run up to the wedding get away and made our stay really special. The cottage was set in a lovely, quiet location to spend time with loved ones and a great location for us to explore the Lake District with our baby and dog.The cottage had everything we needed and more and felt like a real home from home. I would highly recommend this cottage and Alison as a super host if you’re looking for a cosy Lake District holiday! We didn’t want to come home!

Great cottage, ample space for 4 adults although sleeps 5 and would be plenty of room. Outdoor space was lovely with cute little chairs and secure for our 2 small dogs. Beds were comfy. Everything was very clean. Alison sent plenty of messages with great local recommendations for walks, restaurants and plenty of other things to see and do. Great location to Windermere lake, walking distance to the West side. We had a lovely stay and will definitely be back! Thank you 😊

Lovely place to stay. Well equipped and homely. Great location for the boat, steam train and aquarium at Lakeside. Having access to a pool was a bonus when the weather wasn't great. Perfect for a family break, our toddler had a fantastic holiday. Thank you to Alison who went above and beyond with communication and sorted one small issue for us immediately. Highly recommend.

Excellent location with access to a lot of local attractions, which were mostly accessible by walking. The information provided by the host was very detailed, accurate and comprehensive. All communication with the host was prompt, polite and helpful. The cottage had a well equipped kitchen with plenty of crockery, glasses and mugs. There was no need to constantly wash equipment to reuse it. You could put it in the dishwasher and grab another piece of crockery to use. All appliances were clean and easy to use.The bathrooms were well maintained and clean and the linen provide was pristine. Overall, it was a very comfortable, quiet cottage, ideal for a short break or longer stay for adults or a family with children.
