The Bothy On The River Rede !
We loved our stay. Very cosy with use of log burner. Loved the friendly dogs! Both hosts very helpful 😊

Dumfries Beautiful 2 bedroom flat, Dockhead house.
Great little spot by the river. Flat was clean and functional. For what we needed it was perfect, and considering the price, it was good value. No allocated parking, but easily found space on the opposite side of the street.

The Ferrier Apartment #1
Brilliant apartment. Immaculately clean and had everything we needed. We were able to walk 4 mins to silloth golf club from here. Very good restaurant next door. The 2nd bed wasn’t made unfortunately but the host responded quickly to give instructions of where to find the bedding. Would definitely stay here again

Serendipity ~ Romantic Hideaway in Ambleside
I had a fantastic stay at this apartment. The view was absolutely stunning—perfect for a peaceful, romantic getaway. The space itself is cosy and clean, making it feel like a true home away from home. The host was incredibly accommodating and flexible and really fast at responding, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet, intimate place to relax.

River Nith View Apartment
Lovely clean place, bed was so comfy too. Easy to find and great location for town and the river.

Hi Ho Steps Bowness On Windermere Apartment
As explained we did not get any communication about the exact property and only by chance saw the cleaners who with permission gave us the code. If we had not seen them Airbnb were going to cancel the booking. After we were settled the whole stay was great. It's a very good and handy flat.

Keswick - Ground Floor Riverside Holiday Apartment
We like fell walking. This flat was perfect and allowed us get up and out for an early start on the fells. It meant we could park more easily and see the fells just after sunrise. Parking space right outside front door excellent, virtually in town centre will all the pubs and restaurants to hand. Flat was very clean and well equipped with great views over Fritz park and fells beyond. Will definitely return.

Marina Apartment - 2 Bed
Booked on behalf of colleague working in the area. Perfect location, great apartment, communication with the host is great, would highly recommend to anyone.

Solway Holiday Villa
The caravan was tastefully decorated, sparkling clean and right by the little pond - definitely the best spot in the holiday park! It had all the equipment we needed and there was lots to do for the children around the holiday park as well. Can't fault it really..

Cosy Cumbrian Cottage - King Size Bed
The easiest 5stars we’ve ever given to be honest. Lee is a perfect host and his home is lovely. Our hosts has thought of everything, from bread, milk, juice and other basics to local maps, guides and takeaway menus. We loved the bathroom and the dressing gowns and slippers were such a thoughtful extra. The whole cottage is ready for a quiet, perfect evening. We can’t wait to come back

Jitty Cottage - Open Plan with Gallery Bedroom
Great cottage and location. Perfect for a night away to relax and chill out. Highly recommend.

Great last minute break away. In a great spot easy to walk into town and the lake. The living space is beautiful and plenty of room for all of us. Overall a lovely home to stay in

How Bank Ambleside, Luxury House with Hot Tub
Lovely cottage in a perfectly idyllic setting tucked away 5 mins from all amenities in Ambleside. Very clean and well equipped and Catherine was very easy to deal with. Would be happy to return.

Town End Farmhouse, Luxury Victorian 3 bed home
Beautifully renovated historic home off the beaten path. A stone’s throw from a lovely pub with upscale dining and a short walk from another homey pub with traditional fare. Set in the glorious dales and a quick drive from the Lakes District. Lots of trails right outside the door. Incredibly cozy with room to spread out, most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in and a well-stocked kitchen. Made a great base camp for everything the area has to offer.

Osprey Boathouse your luxury water side retreat
Fantastic accomodation, right on the lake with loads of thoughtful treats on arrival. Just what we wanted! Very close to bustling Bowness but also a short hop to tranquility of west shore. We enjoyed kayaking around the islands from our doorstep and took bikes on car ferry and visited Wray castle. Our teenage lads loved the footgolf 5mins from house too. Loads of great walks from nearby. We drove to grasmere (20 min) and did Fairfield horseshoe. Perfect base for all the family. Thanks Helen!

Dalegarth Beach Bungalow, 3 bedrooms, sleeps 6.
We had an amazing weekend at Garry’s place. There’s lots to do in the area but we couldn’t think of a good reason to leave. The property is right on the beach which was very much enjoyed by children and the dog. The house is really well equipped. It was clean and beautifully furnished. Beds were super comfy. Lots of space for 4 adults two children and a dog.

Spacious Apartment in Keswick
This was a lovely place to stay with my family (my wife, 5-year-old, and 2-year-old). The property is a first-floor flat facing the river, with wonderful views at breakfast!. It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the centre of Keswick, with both the Booths and Coop being similar, both slightly closer than that. The property itself is a characterful and slightly quirky layout that retains its historical charm whilst having had a modern refurbishment. The instructions Lara gave were really clear and helpful in terms of finding the property and operating the door access and the heating. We would gladly stay here again when we are back in Keswick.

Tudor House ~ Reading Room Apartment w' River View
If I wasn’t coming on holiday I would still be in there and I will be contacting Shelley upon my return for accommodation

Lovely guest room available in Dumfries.
Very nice place for a private room in Aurelia’s place. Close to town and very convenient. Left to my own devices which suited my short stay. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Apartment - Outstanding Central Location
Great little flat for a visit located right by the Dock Park which is perfect if you have kids and for a walk round. Designated parking space right outside the property and a short walk into town. Provided lots of recommendations for restaurants and takeaways and things to do whilst visiting. Would highly recommend this place and would happily book again when the time comes.

Cockermouth, modern 2 bed apartment
Needed a base in Cockermouth to see friends for the weekend. We were very comfortable and its useful having parking in town.

The Granary. Sleeps 13 - 15. Stunning rural views.
I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Julie’s Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, she made me feel welcome with her warm hospitality and thoughtful touches. The space was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Julie went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience, providing helpful local recommendations and responding quickly to any questions. The location was perfect—convenient, safe, and close to everything I wanted to explore. If you’re looking for a place that feels like home with a host who truly cares, look no further. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Julie’s place to anyone visiting the area! Thank you, Julie, for making my trip so special!
