“Superb location and accomodation” There was ample space for the family of 5, with all the things you would need for a holiday. Very quiet and peaceful location, which is just what we wanted. We made 3 walks straight from the door. The walk to Hawkshead is mainly off the road with good views of the lake, we made it several times for shopping at the Coop. We especially enjoyed late afternoon and evening games on the terrace. Reversing into the drive is a good test of ones driving skills, you can always park at the park just up the road. The only complaints were from the children, the internet was slow (not the owners fault) and the TVs were "awful"... but who wants internet and TV on holiday :) Would thoroughly recommend to anyone who wants to get away from it all and have peace and quiet.

“Amazing Christmas away” Wow this is a beautiful lodge we have just spent 24th-27 December and loved every minuet. The views are beautiful waking up to badgers and deers outside the bedroom window. The pub on site was lovely and was made to feel very welcome. It's only a short drive to Windermere lake which was ideal as my son loves fishing. The lodge itself was very clean and well equipped.Thank you to Bash and Donna for our cards and gifts the little one enjoyed them . Look forward to booking again

“Breathtaking!” The boathouse really is unique and special! Myself and my partner spent three nights in the boathouse which really was the best trip we have been on. The view from the windows are breathtaking. The binoculars provided made it even better to see the stunning views of the lake. Upon arrival there were rose petals, chocolates and champagne which were a lovely touch. The boathouse is in a great location - 10 minute drive from Penrith where there are superstores and about 40 minutes from Lake Windermere. The boathouse itself is immaculate and is a home away from home. The amenities are outstanding - there is everything in the boathouse you could need. The DVD selection is also very good! Jayne was extremely helpful and friendly and she went above and beyond with the information she provided before the trip. I highly recommend the boathouse - you will be left with the amazing memories that we are!

“A hidden gem!” Cosy, comfortable cottage in an idyllic setting in beautiful Sedbergh! Easy communication with the owner and a great price too! We’ll definitely be back, thank you Pippa!

“The Dairy” Excellent location and accommodation. Really quaint cottage, well equipped - the bedroom is accessed by a ladder through a hatch so you need to be reasonably mobile but great fun. The only criticism would be the water heater timed to come on during the night and waking any light sleepers among us - easily remedied by turning it off and re-timing but other than that it was perfect. Glendenning is a nice quiet base to access lots of activities - we'll be back

“Perfect Location for Team Building” A group of 12 work colleagues stayed at the house for a Team Building event in the Lake District. We deceided on a house rather than staying at hotels as it not only allowed us to be together as a group in the evenings but it also worked out at a fraction of the cost of 12 rooms in a hotel for 2 nights. The house itself has many large rooms and whilst there was 12 of us in there, it never seemed cramped or crowded. We could all easily sit in the lounge, but also the upstairs pool room with TV and Sofas was great to get together in the evenings, with amazing views over Morecambe Bay. In addition there were several areas where people who needed to work quietly could do so, without being disturbed by the bigger group. Ross Accomodation were also very flexible with us for arrival and departure times to fit in with peoples early arrivals, but also for us to have a meeting on the last day before we left. With broadband Internet and the Huge dining table, we were as effective as any meeting room in the office! The bedroom accomodation was also excellent, once we found all the rooms tucked around the house. Many of the rooms were ensuite, with steam showers and Jacuzzi baths around the house as well. Outside the gardens were huge with covered areas for the Bar B Que, and also a Table tennis table and a trampoline! We cooked outside both nights we were there even though it was late September, the covered areas giving good shelter. The neighbours were far enough away thet you would not disturb them talking in the garden. Overall an excellent environment for the event, we shall definitely be recommending it to other colleagues to do the same.

“Christmas Break” Lovely lodge in a good location to the facilities. Clean, great xmas decor, the only feedback would be more wine glasses as there was only 2. There was a drains smell in the main bathroom on arrival, but having put drain blocker liquid down the toilet, sink and bath it did disappear. Would book again. Thank you for a lovely stay.

“Perfect bank holiday getaway” We had six of us staying here over the Easter bank holiday weekend and couldn't have asked for a nicer place to stay. The cottage had everything we needed - best of all was the seemingly never ending beautiful garden in which we were able to have a lovely BBQ on our first night. The area itself is also great, Eskdale is a beautiful and quiet corner of the Lake District with spectacular views and plenty of wonderful walking options, while Rose Cottage is situated very close to a very well equipped shop and a couple of lovely-looking pubs (we sadly didn't get to check any of them out on this occasion!). There was a very minor plumbing problem on the day we arrived but Phill the owner was excellent with communication and had this fixed within an hour. Highly recommended!

“A holiday to remember” We stayed with our large family group .We have a holiday together every year and this year it was our first visit to the area.The accommodation was just what we wanted so comfortable, spacious and everything we needed was there to make our holiday enoyable.We made good use of the barbeque and sitting on the terrace enjoying our evening drinks was very special.The Aga was also a boon breakfasts were more appetising when cooked on it.The house had a lovely atmosphere and it was a pleasure to live there even just for the week that we had booked.There were so many places to visit nearby or far away whichever you wanted to do.We will return and we would like to thank Eric and Helen for there hospitality and also for their unobtrusiveness during our stay.Also to the little boy who lived next door Leo and his sister who came to play with the grandchildren .All in all a thoroughly enjoyable time was had by all.Thankyou once again.

“Wonderful vacation cottage!” What a lovely cottage. The owner was fabulous to work with...from reservations to directions ..she was excellent at communicating with us. The cottage was immaculately clean when we arrived and well furnished. It is located in a nice village and we had no problems finding parking in front of the cottage. The cottage is located on a steep hill and has steep narrow steps so might prevent issues for those with limited mobility or very small children. However, I do have arthritic knees and still found the top floor room and its lovely view worth the climb to sleep up there rather than on the 1st floor. There are no toilets on the ground floor so the stairs are not avoidable. The owner contacted us prior to arrival to ask about gates for the stairs as they can be installed for younger children. I would not hesitate to stay in this cottage again if we return to the area for a holiday.

“Another fantastic holiday” Returning for the 3rd time we had the most fantastic 2 weeks at Moss Eccles Tarn. It really is a home from home, so well equipped and comfortable, you just settle in straight away. Lovely location on the site, great for going off for walks, you really don't have to take the car out, there is so much on the door step. Kids and dogs loved it, and we got to unwind. So many things to do nearby, we still haven't exhausted the area, so will definitely be back!! Thank you Susan for all your help with the booking too!

“Lovely, fantastically equipped cottage” We stayed here in Aug 16 and it was a fantastic base for the Southern Lakes. Fell Foot park is only 5 minutes away which is a great National Trust property for energetic kids of all ages. Tony provides the most personable welcome we have ever enjoyed in a holiday cottage, he takes a real interest in assisting you to enjoy your time in the area. The cottage has to be the most generously equipped cottage we have ever stayed at, more like a family home than a holiday cottage, from toys for the little ones, a wide selection of cereals and other supplies, to a fully stocked drinks cabinet, all done with a personal touch and pointed out on Tony's introductory tour. Lots of local pubs etc for eating out and the Swan Hotel includes a marina, childrens play park and a spa. Definitely 5 out of 5

“Excellent well appointed and comfortable cottage” Spent four days in Jasmine and not a single negative thing to say. Gift on arrival as well as milk in the fridge. Towels, hair dryer, iron - whatever you can think of - all available. Shed at back to store our bikes. Spotless and the owner had clearly gone 'over and above' with regards to Covid responsibilities. Comfy and spacious. Great location for N.E Lake District - 5 mins from Penrith or M6. Two hundred yards away from a three mile gentle uphill off-road ride or run to Lowther Castle. Parking less than two minutes walk.

“Unassuming Brilliance” Every part of this cottage made me want to sell up & stay forever. Plenty of space for all the family, where you can sit around the kitchen table and eat together, sit in the lounge and chill together, have fun (or arguments dependant on how competitive you are) in the games room together or simply spend time alone in your room reading a book or watch the sheep jumping across the cattle grids. Great location to go on some very long or short walks with amazing scenery with the knowledge of having a nice fire to come back to, a hot bath or rainfall shower & very comfy beds that if it hadn’t been for the glorious outside to venture in, it would be easy to just stay in bed all day! Bramble’s cafe is just across the road & although we didn’t have time to eat there, it looked very appealing. It’s next to the ‘corner’ shop, which is very handy when you want to grab some more logs for the fire or a pint of milk - they do sell a lot more including waterproofs for when the weather changes. Wainwright’s pub is just a short 2 minute walk & yes we did have time to fit in a sneaky pint with a well earned meal. Every walk in the lakes earns a reward! I have already sent details to several friends who have never been to the Lakes, to come and stay here as I know they will fall in love with it too. Can’t wait to go back.

Hot water was plentiful and on demand after a very short delay!! There are views of the hills from some windows, just a lovely place to stay! We were greeted initially by Michael a very pleasant man who guided us thru the facilities, and later met David also very pleasant, who seemed most concerned that we didnt get cold during our stay. They live on the lower floor of the building and are readily available to assist in any enquiries, however, they were inobtrusive during our stay and although we met in passing and chatted, we were not disturbed in any way. We would highly recommend this apartment to any other couples

“Amazing!!” From the moment we pulled off the A66 and made our way through the quaint village of Braithwaite, we knew we were heading into some beautiful scenery. Ascending the winding lanes we finally spied High Snab Farm in the distance. We were given a warm welcome by Caroline and the moment we stepped into the holiday cottage we knew we'd stumbled across an absolute gem. The cottage was so cosy and warm and spotless throughout. We could not wish for anything more. Superbly equipped, an extremely comfortable bed and views from the bedroom, lounge and kitchen that one could admire all day long. We'll definitely be back. Thank you Tom and Caroline.

Cumbria holidays
If you're looking to experience the most magnificent natural scenery England has to offer, you can't go wrong with the Lake District. Book a rural retreat, like a charming cottage or log cabin, to really make the most of your time in this spectacular landscape.
Breathtaking natural beauty
The Lake District's lush fells and valleys are scattered with small villages; charming clusters of cottages in a landscape that hasn't changed in centuries. Why not choose a cosy cottage in one of these quiet rural communities as your base? Or a secluded log cabin to put you right in the heart of the area's natural beauty?
Explore the 16 lakes, meres and tarns scattered across the county and you'll see cottages nestled on the shore with unparalleled views over the water. But if you prefer the atmosphere and amenities of a market town, you're still spoilt for choice with picturesque options like Keswick, Ambleside and Penrith.
Things to do in the Lake District
If you're seeking the classic Lake District experience, head to Lake Windermere. Here, you can take a boat trip on the water while marvelling at the magnificent peaks surrounding you. There are plenty of holiday homes dotted along the shore in pretty spots such as Bowness-on-Windermere.
Nearby Ullswater doesn't disappoint, either, with plenty of pebbled bays along the lakeside to stop for a picnic and skim some stones across the water. While you're there, don't miss the spectacular waterfalls of Aira Force; with ample parking and a variety of walks, it's the perfect place for a family trip.
Speaking of family trips, one of the most popular attractions is The World of Beatrix Potter. This centre celebrates Peter Rabbit author Beatrix Potter and all the work she did to preserve the land and livelihood of the Lake District.
Inspiration
With its inspiring scenery, wealth of activities and relaxed pace of life, the Lake District is a fabulous staycation destination for families. Renting a cottage or log cabin gives you all the flexibility and space of your own home and sets you up perfectly to enjoy England's most picturesque landscape.
Why Cumbria?
Are you up for an outdoor adventure? Booking your holiday rental in Cumbria gives you the chance to make the most out of the rolling hills, stunning scenery and tranquil lakes. Pick yours today before they all go!
About Cumbria
On the northernmost point of England, Cumbria is one of the largest counties in the country. However, you won't find many built up areas here. Most of the landscape has been left untouched by developers and builders, and lets nature flourish within its borders.
With such an abundance of nature and peacefulness, it's no surprise that lots of artists and authors have come here to try their craft. William Wordsworth, John Ruskin, Beatrix Potter and Ken Russell were all inspired by this magnificent area.
What to do
For something a little different, try the Predator Experience in Cartmel. Choose the creature or creatures you want to interact with and spend a day learning about them. There are bird of prey falconry days, reptile and mammal experiences and you can even go walking with wolves!
There are several waterfalls throughout this part of the Lake District, so why not climb up and see one? Aira Force in Penrith is spectacular.
Top Cumbria travel tips
Come to a holiday rental in Cumbria and embrace the great outdoors! You'll never have another trip like it.
