Great location, really comfy beds, everything we needed.

The only issue was that the curtains in the main bedroom are too narrow to close and the blinds didn’t keep much light out. So we were woken at dawn by the light. If I’d known - I’d have packed quick fix children’s blackout blinds.

Excellent location very close to the shops and cafes of Bowness.

A little cramped in the smaller bedroom and bathroom but not too bothersome.

Location was very handy. We stayed three nights with two children and it was an easy place to use as basecamp, as we left early morning every day and then had chill evenings with the family.

This cottage couldn’t be in a better position. Everything is within walking distance and an amazing pub is literally 30 seconds walk around the corner & the Tesco express is about 3 minute walk for example. All the other shops, restaurants, bars are all within 5 - 15 mins walk and the lake side is also only 5 minutes too. As for the property itself it has more than I’ve ever had in any holiday cottage before, quite exceptional. Washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, full oven and hob, fridge & freezer with extension equipment/utensils. There is an excellent round dining table and the seating is very comfortable and plentiful. There is parking 🅿️ in a very close by car park only a 3 minute walk and you have a business parking permit to use for this which you can also use for other car parks too in the area if they are council run. We used it in Kendal for example. We stayed in November but I would imagine that in busy times of the year getting a parking space may be challenging. There is no view from the cottage as it is in a tiny street but you can see the lake peeking out from the end of the road just to the right of the cottage. This didn’t detract from our stay or bother us at all. The area was very quiet too even though so close to all amenities. Would definitely stay again if there were mattress toppers on the single beds as this cottage is truly in a perfect position.

The 2 single beds in 2nd bedroom were impossible for me to sleep on so I had to squeeze onto the sofa for the 5 nights. The sofa is not a bed by the way. The mattresses were so hard that they were actually painful to sleep on. Interestingly the mattress on the double bed in the main bedroom had a very good and thick topper on it, so I’m assuming that this was in place possibly due to the same reason. However, sadly no toppers on the single beds. If that was rectified then this cottage would be perfect however, unfortunately I’m left sleep deprived which is not pleasant when annual leave from work is so precious.
