“This place was amazing. I would give more than 5 stars if I could. The cottage is cute, cozy and comfortable and patch of adjoining woodland and lake front was magical. We were here for Christmas and our hosts Ruth and Mark had put up Christmas decorations which our boys loved. I greatly appreciated the extra care and detail that had gone into making it a special experience especially for our children. On Christmas Day we spent the entire day in the woods and by the lake but it is also really close to all the larger towns around the lake. I also thought the cottage is bigger than it looks in the pictures.”

“We booked this stay away for our ‘Girls weekend’ a year ago, wanting somewhere where we could batten down the hatches and not leave the site if the weather turned on us. I wanted a hot tub to just wallow in and really relax. Tower Wood Cottage ticked every box. Quirky decor but very homely and there was plenty of space for the four adults. The garden/meadow/wood area that took you down to the edge of Windermere was so peaceful and serene, it was beautiful.”

“Hands down one of the best places we have ever stayed! Mark and Ruth’s cottage is beautifully situated right on the shores of lake Windermere, with an amazing walk through forest to get there from the house. The cottage is picturesque with simple touches of history and family charm. We loved every second of our short stay here and would happily do it again. The best parts were by far mark and Ruth themselves who are the loveliest of people. Ruth leaving little toys for our son to play with, and make sure you check out her amazing marble run in the forest. And their homemade damson jam was to die for! Thanks again guys for the best stay, see you again soon x”
