Fell View Cottage

We had a lovely welcome.

The cottage was clean and well equipped. Lovely views and we had a very relaxing time. Ideal for access to the seaside or the fells.

We had a lovely time in the cottage with perfect views of the mountains.

The hosts were lovely and very helpful. The cottage was spotlessly clean and really well equipped with everything we needed. It’s in a good location to explore the lakes and also close to a lovely beach, the weather was also amazing. I would definitely recommend.

Absolutely brilliant, no complaints from us.

Great hospitality from Anne & Jim, made us feel like friends rather than customers. Great cottage, excellent location for exploring the coast and lake district.

Lovely cottage beautifully done.

Very quiet enjoyed my visit. Highly recommend

We absolutely loved our stay and Anne & Jim were fantastic hosts.

The cottage is clean and cosy with a magnificent view of Black Coombe. The bedrooms are spacious and beautifully decorated and it was the perfect base for walks around The Old Man of Coniston and Skafell.

The hosts were lovely and friendly, as were all the people we encountered in the area.

We hope to come again at some stage in the future. The cottage had such beautiful views of the countryside and had all the things that we needed. Down a nice long track which meant that you were away from it all on the farm. Walks to the beach and the waterfall were close by, so much so that we strolled down to the beach of an evening. Absolutely stunning lake at the bottom of Scafell Pike and the pubs and coffee houses were all very good.

We loved our stay at Fell view cottage.

The cottage was clean & well maintained. Lots of home comforts at this lovely property. The owners Jim & Ann are very friendly & welcoming. The views from the cottage are outstanding, such a peaceful relaxing place in the countryside. We found that Fell view cottage is the perfect place to escape from the stress & strain of our everyday lives. We would highly recommend Fell view cottage for a relaxing peaceful holiday.

Very welcoming and generous hosts.

Great views.

What a wonderful cottage in a perfect position.

We really enjoyed our week in this comfortable cottage with friendly hosts Anne and Jim. Everything we needed included wall to wall sunshine. To be recommended.

Outstanding property in an idyllic location.

The hosts are friendly and kind. With an abundance of knowledgeable on the subject of farming. Including places of interest to visit if you choose to do so.

Fell View is an excellent property, made even better by the lovely family who own it.

We got lost trying to find the farm and Anne patiently directed us over the phone. The cottage was exactly as described, really well equipped and spotless, and we had a lovely few days exploring this part of the Lake District. Wouldn't hesitate to come back or to recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Fell View Cottage!

Everyone was exceptionally friendly and had so much patience for all our children's questions about their farm. They even got a ride on the quad bike! The dogs are adorable and so friendly, the kids are missing Jess already. Set in an outstandingly beautiful area of fells waterfalls, minutes away from Silecroft beach, we made many happy memories. Thanks Jim, Anne and Sandra for everything!

Lovely property - just as listed.

Ann and Jim wonderful hosts About 50mins to Wasdale Head (walk up Scarfell Pike) Would highly recommend- Thank you

A very enjoyable stay in this lovely cottage on a working farm.

Everyone was extremely friendly, which contributed to a very relaxing week away. Well positioned for both walking along the coast and visiting the western lakes.

Fell View Cottage is absolutely stunning, the surroundings are beautiful and Ann and Jim and their family are fantastic hosts, very friendly and welcoming.

It was the perfect get away and I would definitely return.

This was our second visit to Fell View and it was as wonderful as the first.

Amazing cottage in a beautiful setting, well appointed, comfortable and clean. Jim and Anne are the perfect hosts and we were greeted like family friends. Cannot recommend this property highly enough - will definitely be back again.

We had a fantastic week revisiting this lovely cottage.

Brilliant hosts and enjoyed finding new things to do in this part of Cumbria

Had a wonderful stay, Anne & Jim are amazing hosts… Took time to show our children the farm animals along with their daughter Sandra.

Beautiful cottage with gorgeous log burner and playful dog named Jess kept our youngest happy outside for hours. Will definitely return, little slice of heaven out in the country. Lovely locals, highly recommend Bryre Cafe tea room and The Brown Cow Inn for food

We had a wonderful stay at Fell View.

The owners Anne and Jim were so helpful and friendly, suggesting places to visit. The cottage itself was immaculately clean and well equipped with everything you need. Beautifully furnished it was lovely to snuggle up next to the log burner each evening. We also loved staying on a working farm and enjoyed looking out across the fields and over to Black Combe each day. The boys loved playing fetch with Jess the farm dog

It was an absolute pleasure to get up to the stunning view of the fells from the cottage which was also ideally placed to visit many other locations offering amazing views of the coast as well as the fells and lakes.

The cottage is lovely, well equipped, clean, comfortable and well maintained. Anne and Jim are friendly and welcoming hosts and obviously take pride in providing a good standard of accommodation. I would definitely recommend Fell View cottage and would love to return.

A wonderful property with wonderful hosts!

!

Very lovely family and holiday house.

Peaceful and relaxing stay. Highly recommended!

We had an absolutely fabulous week in Fell View Cottage.

Fantastically well-appointed, high levels of cleanliness and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. The owners, Anne & Jim, although busy with their farm, could not do enough for us including when I took unwell later in the week. This property is a must for anyone wanting to visit the Lake District. Will definitely be back!

Beautiful cottage - everything you need for a home to home holiday.

Very clean and comfortable with all the appliances you could ever need. Clear instructions and lots of help with what to do in the area. Jim and Anne were the best hosts - one of our best ever holidays.

A great holiday .

My only slight problem is the position of the tv , being elevated and to one side of a large window ,we had to close the curtains to watch it , and could really only sit on one settee ( opposing settees ) to watch it . Being retired were telly addicts . Because of only using one settee the cushions are uncomfortable . Aside from that it is a superb cottage with a lovely view of the fells

The property was clean and maintained to a very good standard in a good location for exploring the surrounding countryside.

The owners made us feel very welcome

We stayed in Fell View cottage for nearly two weeks.

It was the perfect place from where to start exploring the Lake District with both, the fells and the coast nearby. The cottage was clean and very well equipped. Even a rainy day was enjoyable, it was very cosy with a fire in the log burner. Our hosts were lovely and approachable. We would definitely recommend this cottage and hope to be back sometime!

We loved that the cottage had been converted with such care and every opportunity was taken to make sure we had all we need for our stay.

The hosts, Anne, Jim and family were lovely and friendly and we enjoyed exploring this part of Cumbria, with the coast on one side and the Western fells on the other.

We’ve just got back from a wonderful two night stay at Fell View Cottage.

The cottage is lovely and cosy, (especially with the log burner), in a peaceful location with beautiful views. It was perfect for our relaxing getaway in between Christmas and new year. Anne and Jim greeted us and made us feel at home, and left us welcome treats was a nice surprise. Would definitely come back and stay, we loved it. Thank you!

We’ve had a lovely stay in the cottage.

Everything is made with love and attention to detail in this place. The cottage remains warm for a long time thanks to the modern electric radiators and a wood burning stove. The bathroom is very warm which is great! The cottage has got everything you need - the kitchen is fully equipped, the towels and bedding are provided, extra blankets are available too. We loved that it was located on a working farm, our kids enjoyed seeing the animals (cows, horses, donkey) and playing with the cutest friendly dogs. The view outside the cottage is amazing - green fields and mountains. The owners are very welcoming and friendly. We liked everything about our stay and wished we could stay for longer. We would definitely recommend this place.

Absolutely one of the best holiday cottages we have booked Great location Fantastic hosts Lovely cottage, clean and well equipped Log fire lovely touch and close enough to everything we needed Very quite and relaxing Plenty of parking Couldn’t fault it at all and will definitely re book this lovely place 10/10

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location, with welcoming owners.

We had a great time walking in the area, and a comfortable cottage to come back to. All the beds were comfortable and cottage well equipped. Lovely patio area to admire the views on a sunny evening. We also loved all the animals on the farm especially the donkey and Jess the dog.

Everything was lovely & the property was even prettier than we imagined.

The views were spectacular and it was so shocking to find such a lovely beach only an 8 minute drive away in Silecroft!! Would love to visit again some day.

We stayed at Fell Cottage in early July, and were blessed with some very clear weather for our stay.

The cottage and setting were amazing, so peaceful, we just couldn't get enough of that view. The cottage was very well stocked, comfortable and decorated beautifully. I'm not sure anything could be improved. We will be visiting again. Thank you.

Jim & Ann we're fantastic hosts.

Very friendly and all the pet's. Cottage was lovely and clean lovely view from garden, only sounds was the cows. The only problem was there's no signal for mobile phone in area but there's WiFi in the cottage that works great. We had a week of sunshine

A great stay in a lovely property with fantastic hosts.

The views were incredible, and the location was ideal for getting out exploring. Thanks for a wonderful holiday, we'll definitely be back!

A lovely warm welcomed from Anne & Jim.

The cottage was immaculate. Beautifully furnished and decorated, with a high level of attention to detail. Extremely comfortable beds. A really good shower, almost a wet room really. We loved meeting and playing catch with the dogs and being introduced to the gorgeous, placid, mint loving Rio. Although the cottage is on a farm, up a very bumpy farm track, it’s close enough to the general store in Bootle so that any shopping can be done. There’s a Tesco down the road in Millom. I think, if I had one observation, it would be regarding where the TV is placed. It’s very high up on the wall, and for those of us wearing varifocals, it made it difficult to watch. It could be lowered a bit without too much bother. This is not a complaint, just an observation. We loved staying at Fell View and can’t recommend it highly enough.

We love Fell View Cottage, the location is exactly where we want to be, the facilities are great and the owners could not be nicer.

We'll be back (again) thanks

We had a fantastic holiday at Fell View Cottage.

The accommodation was very clean and tidy. It had everything we needed. Such a beautiful, cosy cottage with stunning views. The owners were very welcoming. Our children loved being shown around the farm and playing with the owners dogs. Plenty of wood was supplied for the fire and a welcome gift was much appreciated. Would definitely recommend and hopefully would like to return one day. Would recommend walking to the local beach.

My companions and i thought the property first class.

In the kitchen the coffee maker did not have filter papers though not a problem cos i found the cafetiere (which most people use these days) at the back of the cupboard. The tap water could have been hotter and better side lights for reading... Otherwise perfecto!

Brilliant friendly hosts great location.

Would highly recommend. Would have given 5 stars for everything but for the bathroom being downstairs and the only source of water. But would gladly go again.Had amazing weather for January

We had a great New Years in the cottage, very close to lovely beaches and walks.

Really helpful information and local suggestions in the guidebook, the waterfall was beautiful (1 hour round walk). Although we didn't get the views due to the winter Lakes weather, the walks we went on were good - over the hills to Broughton (9ish miles) on the fells over Wast Water. Would also reccommend the mini steam train from Ravenglass to Dalegarth. Cottage was great, cosy and welcoming hosts, great price for the quality and location

Anne’s accommodation was second to none.

Beautifully decorated and extremely clean and comfortable. The views are spectacular and I loved waking up to the noise of the farm. The gifts on arrival was much appreciated after a long drive. Couldn’t fault at all

Jim and Anne are informative and welcoming.

The cottage is perfect for a relaxing getaways. The views were amazing.

We had a wonderful relaxing time.

Our hosts made us very welcome and took the time to chat to us despite the cottage being on a busy farm. The standard of cleanliness and the general amenities were excellent. This area of the Lake District is well worth exploring

Delightful rural location on a working farm.

Lovely family working the farm and keen to make our stay a happy one. High standard of accommodation but the toilet and shower etc are all downstairs and the bedrooms upstairs.

What a lovely cottage in a lovely setting, perfect.

The owners run a working farm and we felt very much part of it seeing a newly born calf and lambs, wonderful. The cottage is very well equipped, we wanted for nothing very very comfortable. Lots to do in the area.

Beautiful little cottage hidden away in the countryside.

Lovely owners, friendly and helpful. On a real working farm with some cute animals around; a stunning setting with fells behind and the wild coast a 20 minute walk away. It was cosy and warm especially with the cool little wood stove burning, perfect little romantic getaway. Gorgeous wood interior with a great kitchen. Would go back for sure!

Driving up the track to our holiday cottage all we saw was peace and tranquillity, set in a beautiful rural location.

Anne and Jim were amazing hosts, with warm sincere smiles, informing us of the best local places to visit and local eateries. The accommodation was amazing, warm and cosy with great WiFi. Would we visit again? In a heartbeat!

This warm, cosy cottage is well worth a visit.

The photographs don’t do justice to the fabulous views. An excellent area to visit which is off the beaten track, with lots to see and do nearby but without the crowds. Thank you to Anne and Jim for the great, peaceful holiday.

Friendly hosts.

Picturesque location but don’t try taking a low-slung car down the farm track. No pub in the village but can recommend lunch in the tea room. We were there as a couple and it was ideal but feel that four adults might find it snug, especially downstairs. There is only one toilet and it is located downstairs. This may possibly be an issue in the night. Very quiet part of Cumbria if you want to avoid the crowds and great walking close by.

Great quiet location for the west lakes, ideal location for walkers and water sports.

Bit remote for the likes of pubs and restaurants. Friendly easy going hosts. A real working farm which would be wonderful for young family's.

Great cottage in a peaceful location.

Really helpful hosts and great for walks to the beach.

The cottage was extremely comfortable, cosy and well equipped.

It was easy to find, the directions were accurate and helpful signs had been provided. There were beautiful views from the cottage, excellent local walks, and plenty of things to do within a short drive, or just a train ride away. The railway station is outside the village, but train trips are well worth trying as the views from the train are spectacular. The local shop is stocked with all the essentials. The cottage is on a working farm with plenty of animals to see, and there are three very well-behaved dogs. The owners are always friendly and helpful, they gave us a warm welcome and were always ready to help with any queries or problems. We have had an excellent holiday and were sad to leave.

A brilliant place to stay, very quiet and peaceful, everything that you need is there, fantastic.

. Will be going there again, 100% Lovely farm with lovely people..

Such Lovely Hosts, A Beautiful Family.

This is such a relaxing Cottage and very clean. My children loved it and didn't want to return home. Waking up to the beautiful view and on a working farm was awesome, a good experience for my city kids. Definitely returning for Longer next time.

It's a lovely cottage on a farm in the countryside with stunning views.

With 1 bedroom with a double bed and the other with 2 single beds, this cottage is well suited for couples and families alike. The interior is largely high end and might even be too fancy for some people (e.g. We visited the cottage with our 6 month old baby and were scared of staining the nice table cloth so removed it.). The cottage, and in particular the kitchen, is well kitted out; you'll find everything you need to cook a nice meal for the family (you'd only need to bring the food). The owners have also kindly provided a booklet with information about local shops, restaurants and other amenities. They even provided a cot and a high chair for our baby. Where there is room for improvement is the heating arrangement. We visited the cottage in November when it was already quite cold in Bootle. There were no radiators downstairs in the living room and kitchen, only a wood stove which you kept having to load with pre-chopped wood from just outside the cottage. I supposed, while this added to the country feel of the cottage, it could get annoying to keep having to go outside to get the wood and filling up the stove. Also, this meant that you had to be home and awake to keep it warm. In the mornings when we'd come down or when we'd return from a day out, it would be freezing and would take quite some time to warm up after starting the fire. There were radiators upstairs in the bedrooms but they were pre-set and timed so it would sometimes get quite cold there too. It would have been nice to be able to control the heat ourselves. However, after mentioning to Jim and Anne, the owners, that we would like more heat they were more than happy to help and gave us a portable radiator. This helped to some extent but of course that radiator could only be in 1 room at a time. I was most concerned about the heat because of our baby e.g. having to change him in a cold room. The owners, Jim and Anne, and their family are very nice people who were more than happy to help with any query and Jim and his daughter even gave us an informative tour of the farm! And they were very kind to us when we accidentally broke the glass of the wood stove while loading it with wood. I'm not sure if I'd return to the cottage with a baby in the winter but all in all, it was a very nice and cosy place to visit and we'd definitely recommend it.

The cottage was perfect and we spent a wonderful week there enjoying everything that the area has to offer (including Muncaster Castle, Ravenglass to Eskdale railway and Silecroft beach).

The cottage was very clean and cosy and everything we needed was provided. Our two young boys enjoyed their time on the farm especially their time in the garden, playing with the farm dogs and the cat. The owners of the farm were very welcoming and friendly and gave us lots of suggestions of things to do in the area. We would definitely recommend the cottage to others and we hope to return in the future. Thank you.

The cottage had everything we needed jim and Ann very friendly and helpful.

Anne, Jim and family were such friendly people and allowed us to see the farm animals (including a new born calf) and watch some jobs on the farm which was fascinating for the kids (even though they are teenagers!

). The cottage was beautiful, spotless and equipped with everything for a relaxing holiday away with children. The beds were really comfy and the cottage really cosy. The views from the cottage are outstanding and so peaceful. There are so many beautiful places to visit all within 30 mins to an hour away. We only wished we could have stayed longer!

Fabulous cottage with excellent amenities

The cottage was in great location for the Coniston and nearby areas, with fantastic views over the local countryside and it's based on a working farm which was a bonus for us and our children.

The owners - Jim and Anne were fantastic hosts, welcoming us when we arrived and ensuring everything was fine and as expected. The cottage itself was wonderful and really well kitted out with everything you need for a break, whether cooking in or going out it's great a stay. Our children also loved getting to know the farm pets, we felt totally at home from start to end. Dan - Milton Keynes

The hosts here were the right balance of friendly and welcoming but left us to enjoy this lovely barn conversion.

We found a full tea tray with biscuits and a bottle of wine waiting for us on arrival. The beds were super comfy and there were extra blankets if needed. Bringing in the logs and lighting the wood burner was a ritual every evening and it was great to have a limitless supply. The views from the cottage are beautiful and the children loved seeing the horses in the adjacent field. Jim was very kind and showed the children the new lambs and new born calves whilst everyone enjoyed throwing sticks for the farm dogs who are very friendly. The location to the west of the lake district meant we enjoyed peace and quiet away from the crowds, visiting some of the more remote corners including Wast Water but still being only 30 minutes from Coniston. Being so near the coast too meant we could easily reach the beach for walks and the odd family game of football. Bootle is a lovely village with a well stocked shop. We enjoyed a great holiday here and would recommend it to anyone.

A really cute, well maintained and clean cottage in the middle of the countryside.

Perfect for hiding away for a few days in front of the log burner.

We had a wonderful time in this wonderful cosy cottage.

All of us, especially the kids enjoyed playing with the dogs, the beautiful landscape and the kindness of our hosts.

Extremely friendly owners.

We enjoyed talking to them about the farm and the animals. Very quiet at night, no traffic noise. Beautifully furnished and equipped cottage, highly recommended.

The cottage was perfect and Anne and Jim were very welcoming and had good advice on where to find dinner and supplies.

We'd definitely stay there again.

Phone signal is limited but is available at the bottom of the cottage garden.

With this in mind a Wi-Fi connection would be ideal within the cottage. ****Owner Response**** I am sorry that you found the phone signal limited in the area, we did have Wifi during your stay and I would have been able to assist you with this. I have now updated the Wifi to a super fast broadband which I hope you will be able to experience should you come back to our property in future.

Jim and Anne were excellent hosts and went over and above what you expect from owners.

The both made us and our children welcome and allowed the boys to help on the farm which enriched their holiday.

The cottage is beautiful and presented to a standard above and beyond our expectations.

The location and views are brilliant. The hosts[Jim and Ann] are great so all in all a lovely break.Will certainly be returning.

The hosts Jim and Anne are some of the nicest people you could hope to meet and made us very welcome.

What a lovely place to stay!

Pictures don't do it justice!

Lovely touches around the place and excellent hosts! Very relaxing place to visit.

Hosts were very helpful and friendly.

Location is great for Scafell Pike, Black Combe and many other fells.

Lovely cottage and owners.

Spec of cottage was a high standard , there is a shop near by , 2 mins in car or a 15 min walk. On a working farm with cows and horses. If you like remote then this is the place but also an hours drive gets you to most tourist attractions. Walks from cottage as well for a day out.

The owners and hosts, Anne and Jim, were most welcoming and the little touches in the cottage - a bottle of wine, fresh flowers - were delightful.

On our day of departure we were even given a jar of homemade Fell View beetroot chutney. This type of attention to detail makes holidays that bit more special, personal and memorable. The cottage is perfectly sited as a central "hub" to visit and enjoy the amazing beauty spots of the western Lake District for walking and cycling (the Eskdale Trail was a great ride!) or to visit the favoured tourist attractions. If you want to stay put at the cottage then you can enjoy a cozy fire or sit in the swing seat on the patio, drinking wine and watching the house martins dart across the sky. The holiday was the peaceful retreat we had sought and we were well rewarded!

We all had an amazing stay at Fell view cottage, the owners were very welcoming and friendly and helpful in recommending local places.

The cottage itself was very well equipped and nicely furnished, comfortable and stylish. The views from the cottage were exceptional. lots of things to do locally for all of us (including our 11 year old son) We will definitely look forward to returning back to the cottage very soon.
