    “We loved oak tree cottage in coniston, great location as it was in walking distance of all the shops and pubs, fantastic views out the back and great access to all the walks around the area, the garden was perfect to let our dog out for toilet breaks at night and the hosts were very helpful and left a lovely little goodie box for our arrival.”

    The wood stove was easy to light and they left us a bundle of wood too, this was a lovely touch to keep us warm after a cold wet walk. The bathroom was huge and shower was lovely and powerful, one minor thing was the shower head and drain were a little dirty. Bed was really comfy and plenty big enough, the kitchen had all the appliances and utensils you could need for a short break and was very clean, I would recommend bringing all of your own supplies for making any food and drinks as there ...

Bed was really comfy and plenty big enough, the kitchen had all the appliances and utensils you could need for a short break and was very clean, I would recommend bringing all of your own supplies for making any food and drinks as there was no l coffee/ tea/ sugar but the hosts were kind enough to leave us a pint of milk. Also no foil for replacing the grill tray, there was even a dishwasher that we made use of saving us having to hand wash. I would highly recommend Oak Tree Cottage for a short stay anytime of year! Thankyou for letting us use your lovely home! Tom, Megan, Pippa x

About the location

CONISTON

Hawkshead 4 miles; Ambleside 8 miles.

Nestling at the head of Coniston Water, the pretty village of Coniston is surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the Lake District National Park, making it a superb base for touring, with Hawkshead, Ambleside, Windermere and Grasmere just a short drive away. Superb walking, mountain biking and climbing are available locally on Coniston Old Man and Wetherlam, and the lovely woodland trails at Grizedale Forest. For watersports enthusiasts, the quiet lake is ideal for dinghy sailing and canoeing, whilst the less active can enjoy a leisure cruise on the beautiful steam yacht 'Gondola’, or visit Brantwood, the former home of John Ruskin. Nearby attractions include the award-winning village of Hawkshead, home of the Beatrix Potter Gallery, Tarn Hows, one of the most visited beauty spots in the country and Esthwaite Water, famous for its fishing. A first class holiday location at any time of the year.
