    “Mrs Tiggywinkles is a beautiful cottage in a little courtyard off the main road.”

    It was very quiet and had everything supplied for a home from home stay. It was spotlessly clean and the beds were super comfy. I would not hesitate to stay there again. It is in a great location for visiting the surrounding areas. Also a real bonus was having the private parking space with the cottage. We had a wonderful stay.

The delightful picturesque village of Windermere is the perfect location for a Lake District break at any time of the year, offering traditional Lakeland tea rooms where you can sit and enjoy afternoon tea while watching the world go by, along with contemporary bars, shops, international restaurants and art galleries which are all a minute’s walk from the doorstep.

The famous village of Bowness and the shores of Lake Windermere are a delightful 15 minute walk away and host the Beatrix Potter Exhibition, lake ferry trips and watersports and historic houses and gardens.
