    The cottage was perfect, it had everything we needed. The peaceful location was ideal. The walking distance to Coniston lake and Coniston village was just right.

    Only one sharp knife made cooking difficult. The lights in the main living did not work which did impact our evening and the lock broke on the bathroom - had there not been multiple people it would have left someone stuck in there!

    Beautiful location and well maintained house in general. Great open fire place and enclosed well kept garden.

    Radiator in master bedroom needs bleeding and ceiling lights in sitting room where not working. There is only space for one car outside the door, we parked our other car opposite on the lane. Parking in Coniston is expensive (£5 minimum per stay) and it is a 20 minute walk into Coniston along a bridle path so may not be suitable if mobility is restricted.

    Loved the style of the cottage, especially all of the wooden furniture. It was a bit further from Coniston than we expected although there is a path into the village (when not flooded). It rained a lot during our stay so we spent much time chilling out in the two reception rooms which are very comfortable.

    A peaceful and beautiful cottage - hidden gem of a find!

    The boiler stays on for quite a while after the hot tap is run and is extremely noisy if you're in the smaller of the two double rooms but this just gave me the excuse to use the twin room and get a bed to myself! The hob took me a while to figure out and we could not get one of the provided pans to work on it, despite the welcome booklet giving instructions - although we did eventually find a manual on top of the fridge for any future visitors who aren't used to the technology. The driveway is a little difficult to manouevre into and is initially quite steep so my reversing alarms were having a field day, so plan for this and kick your passenger out early to guide you in!

    The cottage was absolutely beautiful, even better than the photos on the listing show! We loved the open fire on a rainy evening after a long walk and the seated area in the dining room is lovely for an early morning read overlooking the garden. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need for your stay and the dining room was well stocked with various crockery and glasses. Everything was spotless when we arrived and having shampoo and bodywash provided was a bonus... the rainfall shower in the upstairs bathroom was amazing! The cottage is in the perfect place to explore the coniston area (there is even a hidden pathway to coniston without having to walk down the roads) and was so peaceful with it being set back from the road up a little lane. You are alway at risk of getting ticks if you're out walking in the lakes (I found that I'd picked up three while we were out one day) so I was very impressed that the owners had even thought of this and had a basket stored on top of the fridge with tick removers and other useful items for both humans and pets.

    Parking was a little tight for two larger cars.

    Beautiful place to take a break or holiday in an ideal location in the heart of the lakes. Rustic charm, gorgeous garden and views, waking to the sound of the stream next to the cottage was bliss. It was immaculate, well presented and well equipped with everything you might need. Beds were lovely and comfy with good quality bedding. Rooms were spacious the dining room was a lovely space for eating and doors onto the garden. Thank you so much for a really lovely stay at a reasonable affordable price.Will definitely return five stars.

    The property was lovely, more spacious than expected, well furnished and well equipped - we had everything we needed were very comfortable and both close enough to town to get there by foot but far enough away to feel like we had our space and privacy.

    Could do with a little TLC, which would enhance the experience. Wi fi was unavailable throughout our stay, while this was outwith the owners control, we weren’t advised in advance. Despite messaging the owner we had to call to get an update. No additional updates were shared by the owner. Poor customer service.
