Woodside Reviews



Woodside is a lovely, warm and deceptively spacious cottage. Six of us spent Christmas here and we found the cottage to be perfect for our needs. Nicely decorated for the festivities and no trouble cooking Christmas dinner in the well equipped kitchen. Brian and Alison are very thoughtful hosts and we would definitely recommend a… Read more “Cosy but spacious cottage”

The welcome pack was a nice introduction to a cozy comfortable cottage on the quiet side of the lake. A good selection of games for the family to play round a warm log fire.

The cottage is a lovely place, with more than enough room for six people and everything you need inside. It’s very cosy and homely. Check in and out is extremely straightforward, and Brian and Alison contacted to ensure everything was going smoothly (it was). They also provided plenty of information on things to do and… Read more “Beautiful homely cottage”

Our 2 weeks at Woodside Cottage were quite wonderful. The cottage was great & provided everything we needed in comfort. There is so much you can do without even getting in the car & more a short drive away.

Great cosy little cottage, good for families, lots of little touches like a toy box and children’s books in one of the bedrooms, board games, nice cosy living room. Very practical for a family stay in Cumbria with it’s washing machine and drying machine (we got very wet when cycling around Lake Windermere with the… Read more “Great cosy little cottage, good for families.”

A very cosy and warm cottage to spend a lovely few days away in a fantastic location. We were a bunch of friends that love to get together to cook and drink wine by a fire and this cottage was just perfect. There are some great pubs nearby and some fantastic walks with breathtaking views.… Read more “Drinking wine by the fire”

We had a great family weekend in this lovely cottage. Weather was freezing and wet but we were warm in the cottage with a lovely fire in lovely surroundings. I would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants a nice home from home holiday in the Lakes

Outstanding service. Fantastic summer break we have had as a family. From home to home and even better. Would love to go back soon. Xx

Dora has the best seat in the house! Thanks for a lovely week; we’ve had a fab time at Woodside. Think the dogs want to stay forever 🐶🐶💕⭐️

Spacious, well equipped and comfortable cottage, thoughtful touches including a welcome basket and a stairgate to keep lively dogs downstairs, perfectly located for exploring the Lake District and a wealth of information in the cottage on places to see and details of walks suitable for all levels of fitness. Would definitely stay there again.

We recently returned from a weekend at Woodside Cottage for a family get together – despite the weather (snowing) the property was always warm with a cosy log burner – the kitchen in particular was very well equipped and the property was well ogranised with a comfortable feel about the place – a real home… Read more “Perfect family Getaway”

We stayed here for Christmas with our family in 2017. It is a fabulous cottage. Highy recommend. Clean, spacious and comfortable. So well equipt, everything you could possibly need. Lots of instructions to help you settle in quickly and the log burner is beyond perfect. Lovely walk along High Dam with our Minature Scgnauzer was… Read more “Perfect Cottage”

As above really nil else to add

Woodside is the place to stay if you want to get the true Lake District feeling. The cottage we believe was part of Bobbin Mill across the road and you get a real sense of the history of the place. The cottage has everything you could want for, it’s clean, warm and very comfortable. If… Read more “The Place To Stay For Rest And Relaxation”
