“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.

“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.

“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!

“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!

“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.

“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.

“A hidden gem” Despite having to delay our visit to the lakes, arriving at The Halfway House was like entering a magical world of comfort, luxury and at the same time a home from home. From the stunning views at the breakfast table looking out to the hills and the river, to the cosy evenings in front of the roaring inglenook fireplace, this cottage is simply sensational. In fact, we are loathed to write this review because then the secret is out. With a host like Amanda to assist with all of our questions, an ideal location to explore the lakes, and that wonderful feeling of looking forward to getting back at the end of the day to all that awaits, we couldn't have chosen a better place to stay.

“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

“Peaceful and great location!” We are a family of five and we stayed at Barnhaven for four nights. The main downside for all of us is that our time there was too short!

“Perfectly placed, comfortable bungalow” we enjoyed a great week over Christmas this year. A very comfortable, home from home, bungalow. Not far from centre of Keswick but quiet and off street parking a big plus. The beds were exceptionally comfortable. Towels really were fluffy! And everything clean and lots of kitchen equipment. Coffee and tea and biscuits were certainly appreciated. would happily return

“Lovely cottage with everything for a perfect stay” Had a lovely stay at the cottage for a family celebration for twelve people. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we wanted. The beds were particularly comfortable and clean and the views from the cottage were exceptional. The premises is quite isolated although only a 10 minute walk to Boot, although it can be challenge walking back up the steep hill. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend

“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.

“Lovely property in countryside village” The property is well maintained, quiet and set in lovely lawned gardens. Booking the holiday and getting keys was seamless and well organised. Entering the building, there is a stunning hallway and seating area which is very atmospheric, you just want to curl up on the window seat and read or admire the grounds. The apartment was spotlessly clean and the kitchen extremely well equipped. A pint of milk in the fridge and a packet of biscuits was a nice welcoming touch. The weather was too good to use the fire in the sitting room but the wooden panellling and library of books and cd's gave a cosy feel to the room. We loved the "secret door" and the view over the front gardens.

“Amazing experience to stay in an outstanding and unique piece of heritage!” My husband and I were truly delighted to experience such a wonderful few days away due to the outstanding high quality of the signal box facilities, its peaceful surroundings and customer service from the owners. The location is quiet, surrounded by woods and yet enables easy access to explore the countryside and villages of Cumbria and the Lake district. The exquisite signal box made a welcome retreat from busy lives and the fire, views and nearby chickens and ducks was wonderful! Visiting in February the log fire made it cosy and warm. I cannot rate this place highly enough. Gavin and Wendy are helpful and ensure you have all you need for a perfect stay.

“Ideal little retreat for exploring the lakes” I booked the barn for myself, my wife, my 5 year old and 6 month old, along with 2 dogs and another family due to its relative remoteness but also due to it's beautiful surroundings. 3 bedrooms were more than enough for 4 adults, 3 kids and 3 dogs! The accommodation has everything you could need for a short or even longer break and the home was immaculate when we arrived. Dish washer, washing machine; it's all there. The best point of the property is the upstairs living room/ kitchen/ diner; a great space for eating and socializing and a very comfortable sofa. There is a pub about 15 minutes walk away (the sportsmans inn) and although the new owner Chris is not selling hot food, drinks are aplenty and he plans to offer hot food soon. Driving to Keswick takes around 15 minutes and even less to Penrith. We found a great pub called the boot and shoe inn in a look local village, Greystoke; great food and service. The only downside I found was the upside down configuration but that was mainly down to having a 3 and 5 year old running around at 6am! If you don't have little ones then that shouldn't bother you too much. Be wary of the owner of the house across from the barn. Very argumentative when we couldn't get parked on the grass one evening so had to park outside his house. I explained we had 2 young children but he wasnt having it. I continued to park there out of spite from that point! Overall a fantastic holiday accommodation set in idyllic surroundings and we will be back. Thanks again Katie.

“Grange on sands holiday apartment” Booked our stay for a couple of nights at this simple, but comfortable and calm apartment overlooking the beach. It has got most of the facilities, separate fully fitted kitchen etc. The host were friendly and helpful in planning our tour. It was a 30 min drive to the main windermere lake and fairly accessible to most of the attractions in the lake district. Would definitely recommend this for a stay, especially for couple with kids. Thanks.

“Warm, cosy, comfortable and clean” The title says it all really. We (myself, my wife, our eldest son, daughter-in-law and our two grandchildren) stayed in Jasmine Cottage for three nights over the weekend of 5 December. The cottage was everything we expected and more and we wanted for nothing, with good-sized rooms and a very well equipped kitchen, although we only breakfasted in the cottage, preferring to eat out during the day. There is such a good choice of restaurants within minutes (even seconds) walking distance along with pubs and individual shops. Even so the location as extremely quiet and peaceful. The beds are very comfortable and there is plenty of storage space in the bedrooms. The bathroom and over-bath shower are excellent with constant hot water. The facility for parking is an added bonus as it's free and right outside the door. All in all we can highly recommend Jasmine Cottage as a great place to stay, whether it's for just enjoying Kirkby Lonsdale for what it is - easy, relaxed and individual, or as a base for walking the local fells.

“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.
