    “A Blissful Escape Perfect for Groups!”

    Our group of six recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible holiday cottage, and it easily accommodated all of us with room to spare. The cottage was spotlessly clean upon arrival, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere right from the start. The furniture was exceptionally comfortable, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time indoors. We loved the well-stocked kitchen, which was perfect for preparing meals and entertaining our group.

    Our group of six recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible holiday cottage, and it easily accommodated all of us with room to spare. The cottage was spotlessly clean upon arrival, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere right from the start. The furniture was exceptionally comfortable, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time indoors. We loved the well-stocked kitchen, which was perfect for preparing meals and entertaining our group. The secluded location of the cottage offered peace and quiet, an ideal setting to unwind away from the hustle and bustle. One of the most enchanting aspects of our stay was the stream running through the garden. It was a joy to wake up in the morning to the gentle sounds of water and watch a red deer gracefully grazing a few hundred feet away. It was truly a magical experience. For those traveling with an Electric Vehicle, the convenience of on-site charging was a significant benefit. It alleviated any concerns about where to recharge, with a competitive charge rate that made our journeys stress-free. Additionally, ample parking for five or six cars made it perfect for groups traveling in multiple vehicles. The outdoor seating area, complete with a barbecue, became our go-to spot for evening dinners, while the undercover seating area kept us comfortable during the occasional Cumbrian showers! The separate accommodation above the garages was a fantastic bonus, featuring a double bedroom, shower room, kitchen, and seating area with a TV. One of the garages was also converted into a games room, providing endless entertainment for us all. This property offered everything we could have hoped for and more. It truly stands out as the best we have stayed in to date.

About the location

LAKESIDE

Newby Bridge 1.2 miles; Bowness-on-Windermere 8.7 miles.

Set on the southern shores of Lake Windermere, the small, sleepy hamlet of Lakeside offers a peaceful getaway location, hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the Lake District’s popular attractions, but still within easy reach of them. Whether you decide to discover the area in the car, by foot, bike, boat or steam, there’s plenty to see nearby to keep the whole family content. The ferry dock offers the chance to travel by boat to Waterhead or Bowness, or take a shorter trip to the National Trust’s Fell Foot Park, across the water, which offers pretty grounds set alongside the very tip of the lake, providing plenty of places for picnics, paddling, games and gentle strolls on sunny afternoons. Situated alongside the Lakeside Station is the long-standing Lakeside and Haverwaithe Railway, home to Britain’s oldest standard gauge steam engine, on which you can travel back in time along this well-loved Heritage line, and where little ones will delight in meeting Thomas and his friends. Visit the Lakes Aquarium to uncover the often-secretive world of life below water, where you’ll chance upon hundreds of captivating creatures that feature in the surrounding rivers, lakes and sea. There are wonderful, well-signed walks to be enjoyed in the immediate area, including the 5-mile route to Finsthwaite’s High Dam, which trails from Lakeside through pleasant woodlands and meadows. Lakeside offers an exclusive holiday location with all of the Lake District’s delights at your fingertips.
