About this house rental
A turn of the century house with a private garden located in the centre of Coniston, 2 minutes stroll from village shops, pubs, and restaurants.
A short walk to the shores of Coniston Water and a stones throw from the fells and footpaths. Views of the Old Man and Yewdale Crags from the house and garden are inspiring.
The whole house has been renovated and furnished to a high standard with quality fixtures and fittings.
There is a unique and stunning piece of artisan leaded glass work in the lounge depicting Coniston Water and Fells, this was designed and crafted by Sarah Lace a friend (Sarah does commissions if you have an idea for a unique piece of glass)
Set out over three floors there is a lounge a separate dining room, fully fitted new kitchen, 2 king size bedrooms & a twin bedroom, a bathroom and shower room.
The kitchen has a Bosch cooker and hob, Zannusi fridge freezer and Neff dishwasher.
In the lounge the are 2 sumptuous Bouyant sofas to sink into after a day on the fells and a Stovax log burning stove on a beautiful green slate hearth to keep you cosy in the evening.

A few weeks before our stay, I received an email from the property owner detailing local places to eat, things to do, and pointing out walks and features of Coniston that were only a few minutes from the property. With two picky teens to feed and entertain, this was incredibly helpful and thoughtful. They also sent a separate email with lots of details about the house, how to get there, where to find things, and how to look after the place. We swapped numbers and the details of how to access the house were shared via text. Checking in and getting inside was extremely simple and everything worked exactly as the owners had said it would. Once indoors, the house was absolutely beautiful. Scented oils had been left out in most rooms, so the whole place smelled wonderful and inviting; everything was clean, and tastefully decorated. The whole family immediately felt at home. The owners had left two binders for us, one with details about how to care for the house and where to find/leave everything, and another with user manuals for all the appliances, which was super handy as the oven was very different from mine! The house was also stocked with a variety of board games, DVDs and books, so we weren't short of entertainment on those rainy days. Beds were extremely comfortable, bathrooms felt luxurious and clean, living spaces were set up perfectly and made for a wonderful stay. The only possible improvement would be a curtain over the second dormer window in the attic bedroom :)

Beautifully presented and excellently equipped house with tremendous views of the hills around Coniston, particularly from ensuite bedroom on top floor. Feels more like a home than a holiday rental with all the framed pictures, books, maps and very well equipped kitchen. Good shower in downstairs bathroom which is accessed from the kitchen. Choice of 3 food shops and 3 pubs within 5 minutes walk offer dining choices. We preferred cooking ourselves after an early evening drink sitting in the sunshine outside a pub. Communication with owners Brad and Sue was simple and efficient from start to finish.Would highly recommend staying here.
