Shelduck, hot tub, spectacular views & spa option
The property and the location was absolutely amazing , me and my friends have made some amazing memories there. The property felt luxurious and there were soo many personalised gifts for us upon arrival which were much appreciated. the host was very responsive whenever we had any questions I would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants a country escape and I know I want to go back in the future.

J&P Getaways
We had a lovely little getaway, the caravan had everything needed for a short or long trip away. The only thing that I could fault was the curtains in the single-bedroom, there is a light outside which pierces through and makes the bedroom very light. Apart from that, great stay and weâd definitely return again

Meadowside Troutbeck Bridge, sleeps 5+1 on request
Had a great time here with friends. Lovely cottage with everything you need.

Langdale Cottage - 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms
This place was beyond our expectations. Immaculately presented, super clean, tidy, jaw dropping views. I can't fault it in any way and I can't rate it highly enough. Will definately look to return in the future. Stunning!

Lodge by the Lake South Lakeland Leisure Village
The lodge was fabulous, really enjoyed our stay. I even picked up a couple of decor ideas. Had a lovely time feeding the ducks, swans and other wildlife, very relaxing. Shops and amenities easy to get to by car, lovely restaurants around the area. Would absolutely recommend.

Highly recommended to anyone wishing to be close to amenities within lovely surroundingsâŚ..

The Coach House - Lyth Valley by LetMeStay
A wonderfully scenic and private location, and a property which was equipped to a high standard.

Kendal Cottage with Fireplace - Couples' Retreat
We had a great few days at the cottage with our dog. Everything you need is within the house and you're a quick walk into the town. We either had takeaways or ate out but everything you'd need to cook is there. The cottage is lovely and clean and comfortable which was good as one of the nights we relaxed in the house due to bad weather. Communication was great from the hosts too. We'd stay again đ

BLUEBELL COTTAGE, Firbank, nr Sedbergh.
A great base for exploring the Dales and the Eastern Lake District. I did 2 wonderful sunny spring hillwalks from the doorstep and a further 3 within 40 mins by car. The cottage is exceedingly comfortable and a great blend of traditional decor and modern facilities, with highlights being the super comfortable bed, excellent new shower room and small but very well equipped kitchen. Thanks to Alexandra for the prompt response and short-notice booking, helpful instructions and extremely tasty cake, tea and coffee provided on arrival!

Greenthorn
We stayed in June for 4 nights as a family group of four adults for a birthday getaway and had the most wonderful stay. The house is beautiful, characterful and peaceful, absolutely immaculate on arrival and we especially loved the outdoor area with the seating and BBQ - we were blessed with warm and sunny weather so we could use it! We were very thankful to be able to bring our dogs as well and want to say an extra thank you for allowing that - great communication from host Craig. There is parking for three cars and it's only a short drive (approx 15-20mins) to Bowness - we did a boat trip from here one day. We also ate one night at the Mason's Arms down the road and had a very nice meal. Overall 10/10 from us!

The Ullswater View
We have just returned home from 4 nights at Julie's ex-guesthouse and we absolutely loved it. We were a group of 5 adults, a 9 year old and 18 month old and there was space for all of us. Each room has its own ensuite and the kitchen is well stocked. The whole place was very clean and the utility room is also massive which helps if you need to do any washing while staying there. We will definitely look to use Julie's place again in the future. Julie replied in good time to any messages and is very friendly. Highly recommend as a great place to get around the Lakes from too.

Panoramic Views & Spacious Living by LetMeStay
Nice clean cottage in a peaceful location. Host was very responsive to pre-check in requests. Great couple days had in Grasmere.

Daville Newton in cartmel
Daville is beautiful. We took our three children and their partners for a family weekend away. We were all impressed with the accommodation. Itâs modern, well appointed, comfortable, clean and welcoming. Thank you Lesley.

The Hut Retreat
A Perfect Stay â Highly Recommend! We had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Hut! From the moment we arrived, everything was exactly as described (and even better). The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had every amenity we could possibly need. It truly felt like a home away from home. Julie was an exceptional hostâmanaging our booking with efficiency and responsiveness.She went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and stress-free. Itâs clear she genuinely cares about her guests' experience. The location was perfect as wellâquiet, safe, and close to everything we needed. Whether you're in town for business, relaxation, or a little bit of both, this is the place to be. Thank you, Julie, for such a memorable stay! We wouldnât hesitate to book again and will definitely recommend The Hut to friends and family.

Auchengashell, stunning sea views
The house and grounds are spectacular- with amazing views across the Irish Sea to Cumbria and the Isle of Man. Amazing array of wildlife within the grounds- red squirrels, hares, roe deer, red kites all frequently sighted. The house is so comfortable and very tastefully decorated with very high quality fixtures and fittings. The surrounding area is very beautiful and so quiet and peaceful. One of the very best AirB&Bs we have stayed in, highly recommended.

Luxury Studio with Private Bathroom
We had a wonderful stay! Communication was great from the start, and the home itself is absolutely beautiful, cosy, warm, and full of thoughtful touches that made it feel really special. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the shower was excellent too. Sarah, her husband, and Joey were so lovely and welcoming, and their gorgeous dog made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this stay, would love to come back!
