“Lovely cottage, could do with replacing the sofa as it is really uncomfortable”

- Mrs Spauls, November 2021
Ms Evans October 2021

“Very accurate description.”

Well equipped kitchen for self catering. Great location just wish we could have enjoyed the lovely garden more but it was too cold!

- Ms Evans, October 2021
Mrs Mulley August 2021

“Perhaps mention that there is a factory to the side/bottom of the garden and that there is some noise from the factory, especially early in the morning (seem to start work at 6am) with fortlift trucks being driven past the front of the house.”

- Mrs Mulley, August 2021
Mrs Corrigan July 2021

“We were totally taken aback by our beautiful cottage!”

The garden was stunning and we loved the area. It was a perfect location to explore the Lake District.

- Mrs Corrigan, July 2021
Mrs Cook July 2021

“Beautiful cottage, excellent location, everything we needed was there.”

Loved the conservatory for eating and sitting reading. Met some lovely local people at the brewery, new friends for life! Thank you. Love it here, can’t wait to come back!

Mrs Coaten May 2019

“Excellent property in a good location.”

A fully enclosed garden which was ideal for our dog.

- Mrs Coaten, May 2019
Mrs Unsworth Apr 2019

“Within walking distance of amenities and within walking distance of a local walk.”

We like walking - we have a dog :) Cottage itself was comfortable and well equipped I won't hesitate to use again if we decide on a return visit to the area.

The property

This romantic Lakeland cottage resides in a peaceful setting within the picturesque and popular village of Staveley at the mouth of the breathtaking Kentmere Valley, only a short drive from bustling Windermere. If searching for somewhere special to get away and soak up all the Lakes have to offer, we know you will fall in love with 'Stone Cottage'. Step inside to see how Lakeland character and charm blend effortlessly with the 21st century - this beautiful property is a place to spend precious time together and relax. Staveley itself is a short distance from Windermere and has two country pubs serving good food and real ales, Hawkshead Brewery and a locally famous cafe on the banks of the river, a couple of well stocked shops and post office and a whole host of little interesting shops in the Mill Yard. If you like high or low level walks or mountain biking, this is a paradise as everything is on your doorstep. == Accommodation in detail Park outside in this sleepy village; entrance porch ideal for walking clobber. The living room is full of character and a great place to relax by the warming woodburner, comfy leather sofas with stone flagged floor and deep pile rug. You'll find a Smart TV/DVD, an iPod dock, a stockpile of books, guides and maps, as well as films and games to relax with on cosy evenings in.The dining area leads into the neat kitchen which has all you need and from here you enter the totally relaxing conservatory - what a place to escape too. Head upstairs to the beautiful king size bedroom and luxurious bathroom, don't forget the private delightful garden providing the perfect space for al-fresco dining. Location A holiday cottage in Staveley places you at the heart of a real Lakeland community, rather than primarily a tourist destination. The pretty village lies at the gateway to the Kentmere Valley, in a convenient location between Kendal and Windermere. Staveley is alive with artisan crafts and art galleries, but it's also an absolute treat for foodies. In the Staveley Mill Yard, you'll find the famous More? Artisan Bakery, the popular walkers' cafe 'Wilf's Cafe' and also the award-winning Hawkshead Brewery and Beer Hall (selling 'beer tapas' bar food.) You'll have to try them all! Just down the road from Stone Cottage is the Eagle & Child - one of the most highly-regarded pubs in the area and a perfect choice for a special meal out. To stock up your kitchen and explore further afield, you only need drive a few miles on the A591 to Windermere village. There, you'll find a high class Booths supermarket and many other useful shops. From Windermere village, the A591 provides your main route into the heart of the Lakes, making Staveley a very convenient Lake District holiday base.
