Monthly Rentals in Elter Water

Birdie Fell is an absolutely beautiful cottage and perfect for our long weekend, with everything we needed on the door step. The cottage is cosy and a perfect fit for the 2 of us, with a lovely modern kitchen and bathroom (showing some great views!) It’s a great location, with nearby walks and a few towns just a short drive away (Definitely visit The Drunken Duck Inn and The Ambleside Inn for some delicious food!) Alex and Frank were always on hand to help with any queries we had and gave some wonderful recommendations for walks. Highly recommend staying here! We’ll definitely be back!

We've just had 3 days at the property (end of Jan 25), everything was as described and we were blessed with blue skies and a really quiet Lakedistrict! The lodge was perfect for 3 adults and a dog, with the lovely garden at the back being a great space for Charlie (the dog!) to roam. The property is about 50m from a great river walk/run, with a round trip to Elterwater being about 3 miles. I was hoping to do a run to Ambleside but the river path doesn't head in that direction, so it's the 'A' road or over the Loughrigg fell, which I only half did... Nice riverside cafe providing great cakes and lunch food, there's also a hotel/bar, though its very quiet in Jan, so Ambleside was only a 10-15min The lodge was really homely and warm, the log fire (and storage heater if you need it) gives out great heat, the place was really clean and there was plates, glasses, utensils aplenty. Check-in instructions and the odd query via Michelle were really efficient, so overall a fab break.

This is such a lovely place, it felt like home from home, had everything we needed, clean and comfy. Such a beautiful area, lovely walks from the house, and Grasmere is lovely too. We will definitely be back.

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful cottage in Elterwater — the perfect base for exploring the Lake District. Four of us (two couples) and our dog had plenty of space to relax. The cottage was spotless, with comfortable beds, high-quality linen and towels, and excellent appliances throughout. The location is unbeatable, nestled right in the heart of the valley with stunning 360-degree views and direct access to countless walking routes into the surrounding mountains. There’s a great local pub just a short stroll away and an outstanding nearby restaurant focusing on small plates and local produce — a real highlight. Although the cottage has one designated parking spot, there’s plenty of additional parking within two minutes’ walk, which made things very easy. Alun is a fantastic host — warm, reliable, and always helpful. We’ve stayed in a few of his properties now, and they never disappoint. We’d definitely seek out one of his places again next time we’re in the Lakes.
