EXCELLENT Based on 333 reviews Posted on TeenaVerified Thank you to Mark and Ruth , we thoroughly enjoyed our stay , you were both very friendly and our grandson loved finding the lorries with chocolates in on return from our day trips.We enjoyed everything, the access through the woods to the lake and the hot tub, was a definite treat at the end of a busy dayWe will definitely return , that's for surehighly recommended 👌 best wishesTeena, Paul and familyPosted on HollyVerified Easily the best place we've ever stayed. It felt genuinely magical. I swam in the lake every day. We played games, looked for fairies and experimented with the marble run in the woods. The stargazing was sensational. We made full use of the hot tub. Michael and Ruth were incredibly welcoming, thoughtful and jolly.We got a train to Windermere and a taxi to the cottage but I think it would have been fine to get the bus. We had friends come over to drive us around and there was loads to do within a 10-20 minute drive. We climbed Orrest Head and Gummer's How with our four year old. Incredibly well equipped and very cosy yet practical. It was really nice to stay somewhere that felt genuinely lived in and homely. Excellent book and DVD collection. Our son was overjoyed by the extensive toys and games in the cottage. We had lovely weather but if it had rained every day there would still have been enough to do inside. We had everything we needed to cook. We could have stayed for weeks.Posted on MarieVerified A wonderful place- a beautiful old farmhouse with many special touches, fabulous grounds and thoughtful hosts.We loved every minute of our stay.Posted on CandyceVerified loved staying here, and hope to be back again.grounds are brilliant and the cottsge had everything we could ask forPosted on StuartVerified Clean, cozy and comfortable. Mark and Ruth’s place was the perfect weekend in the lakes. The house is full of curiosity’s, has bags of character. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality appliances. The beds are super sandy and the fire and hot tub was a great bonus. Have no access to the lake means you ca launch kayaks direct from the accommodation. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back another time. Thanks. 🙏Posted on LizVerified Really lovely traditional cottage with private beaches on Windermere. Comfortable stay, good beds, well equipped kitchen, log fires. We used the hot tub and sauna and the communication about their use was easy and hassle free. We used the beach to fish by boat and that worked really well too. Great stay. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.Posted on JasonVerified We’ve just returned from a fabulous three day family break at Mark and Ruth’s cottage on Lake Windermere. The house itself is fantastic, with lots of character, well presented, comfortable, and perfectly equipped for a relaxing stay.The location close to the lake is superb, just a short stroll through the back garden where we were available to use our Kayak. The hot tub was a real highlight and perfect for relaxing in the evenings after a day out.Mark and Ruth were incredibly friendly, welcoming and attentive throughout, ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a stay here.Posted on SophieVerified Mark and Ruth’s cottage is a great place to base yourself in the Lake District. It is in a beautiful setting and so lovely to be right on the shores of lake Windermere. I would recommend!Posted on HelenVerified A group of 5 ladies we wanted a 2 night break of relaxation and calm and that's exactly what we got ! the house is beautiful ,location fabulous and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and sauna ! We are extra proud we even had a dip in Windermere in January 😁Posted on ChrisVerified We had an absolutely beautiful stay right on the shore of Lake Windermere with two private beaches - the house and setting were breathtaking. Ruth was incredibly kind and friendly, making our stay truly special - especially for my younger daughter, who was delighted by little gifts from the local fairies! We also thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the luxurious sauna - a real treat.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Absolutely beautiful location with wonderful hosts. We booked a sauna and hot tub for a couple of hours and had a great time. Ruth and Mark are so lovely and really made us feel welcome. The sauna and hot tub were perfect amd we even braved getting into the lake in between. There is a cosy room to relax between using the facilities which was such a great added touch. We will definitely be returning for longer next time.Posted on Jonathan SaipeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this place!

Ruth and Mark, who are the best hosts ever, will make you feel right at home.Posted on Becky SolomonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked the sauna and swim for me and my partner and we ended up staying at the cottage too. Ruth showed us around everything, and was really welcoming. It's a lovely spot that goes right down to the lake - the sauna and hot tub are great. There's a lot of nice added touches to make feel guests at home. We would love to visit again.Posted on Richard ColemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful location, lovely comfortable cottage and the hosts are super friendly and helpful.Posted on Raphael W.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The cottage was cosy and beautiful. It was well stocked with everything we could possibly have needed. We loved the private beach and the grounds around the house, especially the private woodland, are even more magical than the photos on their website suggest. The open air hot tub was great to relax in and the perfect end to the day. A wonderful place with Mark and Ruth, the exceptional hosts that made our stay unforgettable. We will definitely be staying here again.Posted on Daniel15242Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. On our way through the lakes we stopped of for a spa session.
