Central Bowness - Hot Tub, Lake Views & Cinema
The location is fantastic and there is another route if you dont fancy the very steep hill up to the property. There was enough space for all of us. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool table and hot tub as the weather was intermittent!! There was a small issue with the heating which the hosts responded to immediately. A great central base for exploring.

Wythop School, Lake District
Perfect base for a lads and dads weekend. All the facilities we needed, comfortable, gorgeous views, no faff.

The Lake Lodge (Windermere)
Had a great time staying here with some friends for a long weekend in the Lake District. Really unique house, and easy access to great hikes.

Mountain Cottage - Quirky at it's best
I can’t recommend Will and Giles’ place enough. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. The information sent prior to arrival was brilliant, the cottage was much bigger than we expected and it’s in an amazing location right by Coniston. The place was spotless and had some lovely touches. We will be back!

Halfpenny Cottage - Cosy Retreat in Borrowdale
The apartment is great and very comfortable, and had everything we needed for a good stay. The area is beautiful and we enjoyed walks to the lakes and also to trails which can be accessed from the from the front door.

Traditional Lakeland House
Can’t say enough about the house and its host. Very clean, nice linens, comfy beds and perfect location to get to local shops, restaurants, pubs etc. We had a really lovely stay and Lizzie was super helpful and hospitable, ensuring our stay was perfect. Windermere (and Bowness on Windermere) are 10min walk from the house. It truly is a beautiful location to enjoy the Lake District. We will definitely be back!

Lakeland Cottage - Bowness-on-Windermere sleeps 6
parking for 2 cars was perfect. location was great and so quiet and yet in the centre of everything.

Great family house for 6, parking , accepts 1 dog
Elisabeth's property is a great place located in a beautiful area, that is extremely close to shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs. Located close to Skiddaw and Lake Derwent, you can leave the house and chose a hike of your choice. The house is equipped with everything you need and I will be looking to return when back in the area.

Howgill Self Catering Apartment
Thanks John for a excellent stay, your place was perfect for all our needs

Admiral's Nest (Central Bowness)
Peter was very helpful, and the check-in process was easy. We arrived early, and when I mentioned this to Peter, he told me that I could check in right away if the cleaner had finished. That really made my day. The place was lovely, cozy, and quiet; it felt like home. Thank you once again for all your help. We look forward to visiting you again soon.

Entire ground floor accessible apartment
Ray and Sue were extremely responsive throughout, they met us and showed us around the apartment. They were very friendly and advised if we needed anything else we could reach out to them. The apartment was exactly as described, clean, loads if room, and we had very comfy beds. We had every item required in the kitchen, plus juice, milk and chocolate biscuits in the fridge which was a lovely gesture, plus tea, coffee, and sugar. Everything was to hand. We had a great stay, I would definitely recommend this accommodation, and our hosts Ray and Sue were brilliant. Thank you so much. X

'Waterside Studio'
Accommodation and location were perfect for us. Highly recommend. Clean quiet and had everything we needed. Many thanks.

Scafell View Apartment, Wasdale, The Lake District
Scafell View had everything we needed. There was onsite private parking so guaranteed an easy space opposite the property and the apartment is a good size with everything you need. There were 3 of us staying and it great base from which to explore the local area and the views are amazing, especially the night sky! Sharon provided clear instructions on how to find the property with some suggestions and helpful info in the apartment. The only thing I'd ask for would be a few more adult board games for the evenings.

Ground floor apartment with parking in town centre
Beautiful apartment Helen’s instructions were really clear & check in was seamless. Didn’t really get to appreciate the surrounding area except for the stunning views. This was a brief visit as our son was competing in the Lakes Ultramarathon. We were very grateful for the welcome hamper this allowed him to refuel post race. We will definitely be back ❤️

Rothay The Bowering
Great little stay walking distance from the train station. Lovely, quiet home was everything we needed!

Luxury 4 Star Cosy Lakeland Cottage
We stayed at Simon and Belinda's place for a week and it was exactly what we needed. Fantastic location for walks and food. The Wainwright's Inn is only 0.2 miles away. Great food and local ales on your doorstep. The cottage is cosy, the kitchen is well equipped and the information provided was very thorough and useful. There are some books in the house they have prepared to show various walks and local recommendations. We did some of these walks and our 5 year old enjoyed every second! We took advantage of the leisure facilities at The Langdale. This was a great addition to the cottage! Really recommend if you want a place near to town locations, walks and local pubs/cafés/restaurants.

Maple Leaf Cottage, Windermere, The Lake District.
Lovely cottage ideally located on the edge of Windermere town, Walked to the lake and travelled by boat to Brockhole and returned on the bus. Good transport and restaurants. Thank you Mark - we really enjoyed our stay.

Cosy cottage with parking
We absolutely 💯 loved our short stay at Nursery end cottage. It was perfect. Warm, comfortable & cosy. It had everything you could think of. We were welcomed with a lovely welcome pack & thankyou card. The cottage is in a beautiful, peaceful area surrounded by sheep and hills. We chose to stay here as it wasn't far from Scafell pike. I would recommend to anyone to stay in this cottage and would definitely book it again. It's just beautiful. We only wish we could of stayed longer.

Cosy Cottage on the edge of the Lake District
A fantastic option for our week in the Lake District. Conveniently situated, spotlessly clean and well equipped. A very comfortable place that exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be back.

Skiddaw Cottage @ the heart of Keswick Town
One can see a lot of thought has gone into providing a well appointed residence. The location is excellent and Stuart's place has all the facilities needed for a comfortable stay and we would gladly return.

Swallows & Amazons cottage - Beck
Thank you for providing such a beautiful, peaceful, and inspiring sanctuary for people to enjoy this wonderful area. The check-in process was effortless, with the key conveniently left on the door—completely hassle-free. Booking the boat with Rob was straightforward, and his clear, brilliant demonstration made it easy for us to operate the boat independently. A big thanks to Jonathon and Rob for making our experience so seamless and enjoyable!

Snug cottage in a stunning setting!
What a wonderful stay - Diane was so helpful with her information Nothing was too much trouble Eggs delivered ready for breakfast Views stunning from Garden and hot tub All round just great

Character Windermere home with log burner
John told us the house had everything we’d need & it really did. We honestly couldn’t find one fault. It was perfect!! Absolutely loved it, great for relaxing & socialising for a large family. Good quality furnishings & accessories. Literally exactly what we needed & next time we have a larger group, I’d definitely be booking here again rather than looking anywhere else. Great hosts too!! Thanks John ☺️ Edit: We left behind me son’s comforter. John contacted me & posted it back recorded delivery 🥰 That’s the difference of booking another person’s home rather than a hotel - they’re real people, like you, who care about what’s important to you! Now John is my son’s hero!!
