Lovely location in the country. Quiet and peaceful.Ours was one of 3-4 others nestled together. The views from the walking/hiking paths around our rental were absolutely stunning. The rental was comfortable and had every amenity needed. Windermere was a short drive away. Great restaurants in the area. The manager was very responsive.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
We had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage in Troutbeck. The setting was peaceful, surrounded by scenic walking paths right outside the door—and plenty of adorable sheep along the way! It felt like a true countryside escape, yet it was just a short drive to Ambleside and Windermere, which made exploring the Lake District easy . The complimentary afternoon tea at the Old Post Office Tea Room was a nice touch.Just a note that although there is parking infront of the house, it could be used by the neighbors. We managed to get parking everyday we were there.
