We spent a very relaxing week at The Retreat cottage in August with our teenage daughters. The cottage is beautifully and comfortably decorated and very well equipped with everything you could need for a family holiday. The location is a perfect for base for exploring the Lakes and only 5 mins walk down to Bowness shops and restaurants. The garden gives a lovely view down onto Windermere and we even had our own little Peter rabbit!

This Brantfell cottage is absolutely perfect for a family stay in the Lake District. The cottage was clean and well appointed. If you are looking to ramble you couldn't find a better location. The trail to Brantfell is right out the back door. It's a quick climb that provides gorgeous views up and down the lake. If you are without a car, be prepared for a steep walk to the cottage after a day in Bowness, a good way to burn of your fish and chips from Vinegar Jones!

Overall we had an absolutely fantastic time, the weather couldn’t have been better. The garden is great for seeing the views of Lake Windermere. The beds are very comfy and after a long day of walking old man of Coniston and kayaking we were ready for an early night. We will be booking again in the future!

The cottage is a gorgeous, tiny old stone building, which has been ingeniously redesigned inside to create a cozy yet spacious-feeling home away from home, with all the mod cons. The view up the hill from the living room, and across to the lake from the deck, were just what we hoped for. Easy walking access into town (if you don't mind the slopes) for groceries, pubs and down to the lake, or up the hill right outside your door to one of the most spectacular views I have ever enjoyed. The owner Louise was very responsive to questions, the cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed to enjoy a very comfortable stay. We will definitely visit again.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful. The views were breathtaking. The only thing to call out is that if you are a tall person you will need to duck quite a bit due to beams and a very cute front door. The cottage was fitted out really well and the kitchen had everything which for us was great as we like to cook. If you want a very relaxing break with beautiful views then this is the place to stay. The owners were also very quick to help us turning the heating up. A fantastic break. Thank you for a wonderful break.
