“Wonderful accommodation in a beautiful location.”

Had a great week of walking and touring the area. It was a pleasure to come back to Cedar Nook which is well presented and provided everything we needed to a very high standard. The scones and wine were a lovely welcome gift. Thank you.

“Another great stay at Cedar Nook!”

It was always our desire to return after a previous November stay to enjoy longer days in the spring. We were certainly rewarded with some beautiful weather. The cottage retains all the charm we remembered and it’s remote location provides a peaceful oasis in the north Lakeland fells.

“Cedar Nook is a lovely little cottage for two, beautifully furnished with very high quality amenities.”

The views from the cottage are amazing and it is perfectly located to explore the Lakes whilst being in a quieter area off the busiest tourist track. We loved simply having breakfast in the garden, watching the horses and the weather changing across the landscape. We would love to visit again.

“This is the second time we have stayed at Cedar Nook and it was just as good as the first; even though the weather wasn't great.”

Ideal location with stunning views and walks on your doorstep. Friendly and helpful owners live next door and great food in the pub just a few minutes walk away. We highly recommend staying Cedar Nook

“We really enjoyed our stay at Cedar Nook.”

Loraine October 2021

“Cedar Nook is very highly recommended - location is fabulous and it has amazing views.”

Such a bonus to have a pub within walking distance too. This isn't an area we have previously visited but it is so much to offer and we couldn't do it justice as unfortunately one of us broke an ankle badly so we had to return home early. However we've already booked for next autumn, so taken were we with the property and the area. The owners have provided everything possible to ensure a comfortable stay. We loved the horses there!

“Just booked again for next year.”

This place is top notch, sparkly clean, comfortable bed and sofa, wow views, dark skies and friendly owners. We appreciated the light and tasty scones with a cuppa after a long drive, along some wine and fresh flowers during our stay - nice touch. Great pub short walk away, yes you can walk to it after a long day in the fells. Thanks for sharing you great property.

“At Cedar Nook there is beautiful scenery on your doorstep - panoramic views.”

The property was simply stunning, beautifully finished and tastefully decorated. The larder cupboard was a luxury, the coffee machine went down well. The shower was divine, there were large soft towels, and the washing machine was a bonus!

“The cottage was perfect.”

Quality of furnishings and decor - spot on. Shower - stunning. The bed was the most comfortable we have slept in away from home. R and S are delightful hosts and S's scones were 11/10! All in all, we couldn’t have chosen a better place to spend a week - we’ll be back soon.

The property

The spectacular scenery of the north west Lake District is some of the most stunning and beautiful in the British Isles and sat right in the very heart of it the small hamlet of Loweswater is one of the prettiest in the Lakes. Leave the hustle and bustle behind you as you wind along the country lanes and approach Cedar Nook. Created from the old hay barn at Godferhead, this once busy farm is now a haven of peace and tranquillity, horses and sheep graze in the surrounding fields, chickens wander through the old farm yard whilst buzzards circle high overhead. This wonderful Lakeland retreat offers beautiful and high quality accommodation through the seasons and whatever the weather. Accommodation In Detail The front door to Cedar Nook opens to reveal a beautiful cottage, steeped in history, oozing with quality and the owner’s attention to detail is clearly in evidence. To ensure guests benefit from the best of the views, this wonderful barn conversion is presented with the living accommodation on the first floor and the bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. A beautiful oak staircase takes guests to the open plan living accommodation. The very first thing every visitor does is to throw open the picture window and look out from the Juliet balcony at the stunning scenery that surrounds the cottage which perfectly frames the ancient cedar tree from which the cottage takes its name. If you can tear yourself away from the view, now is the opportunity to take in the rest of the room, with comfortable sofa arranged to benefit from the views and also to relax in from of your favourite film on TV beneath the oak beams that are another fantastic feature of this room. A circular dining table is just the place for a hearty breakfast before a day on the fells or for a romantic dinner for two. The bespoke, handmade, kitchen is well equipped with four ring electric hob and oven, dishwasher and fridge (don’t worry there is a freezer as well –its downstairs in the boot room) and is complemented by a quality inventory. Back on the ground floor, the luxurious bedroom suite is a real treat at the end of the day, the pretty bedroom is presented with a sumptuous kingsize bed and the superb ensuite shower room with walk in shower, bath, basin and WC. On a summer’s evening what better place to sit than on the patio, with bistro garden furniture, as the sun sets behind the cedar tree! Private parking is available for one car. LocationLoweswater is nestled between the beautiful North Western Fells, offering relative peace compared with the “honeypot” areas of the Lake District, with Crummock Water, Buttermere and Loweswater lake within easy reach. Melbreak, Whiteside and the mighty Grasmoor offer exhilarating high level walks, or take gentle lakeside and woodland strolls, all from your door. The famous Kirkstile Inn is a 10 minute walk away, offering a fine, locally sourced menu and Real Ales. The Wheatsheaf in Low Lorton is a 10 minute drive away – another characterful “local” with great food. The market town of Cockermouth is about 8 miles away with a good range of shops, bistros and restaurants and attractions such as Wordsworth’s House and the Jennings Brewery. The Lakes Distillery offers tasting, tours and a shop selling local produce. The popular village of Buttermere has two great cafes (one offering delicious farm-made ice-cream) ideal as a lunch stop while exploring the surrounding waterfalls, mountain passes and high tops. Continue along this road to Honister Slate Mine and the Via Ferrata experience! Whinlatter Forest Park is a mecca for mountain bikers and walkers alike. Bike hire and refreshments are available.
