The beautiful surroundings offer walking routes for all skill levels, right from the cottage's doorstep. A favoured walk in good weather is the half-mile trek along the field track to the Watermill Inn and Brewery in Ings, which brews its own beer. The nearby village of Staveley (2 miles) is also a popular spot. Cyclists can enjoy numerous routes of varying difficulty, all with breathtaking scenery. Visitors seeking the amenities of Windermere and Bowness will find plenty to enjoy. These towns feature independent shops, street cafés, and wine bars, all near the stunning Lake Windermere.

The cottage is cosy and comfortable and has everything needed. The views are amazing and it was fun to be on a working farm. The swallows and bluebells in May are beautiful.

As a family of 4 with a 8 year old and 1 year old we had the most amazing 4 nights here. The hosts were incredible, made us all feel very welcome especially the children who were invited to interact with the animals on the farm and told us all about them. We have stayed in numerous places in the lakes before and it was the little touches here that Read moremade the property so great, freshly cut flowers, little treats for the kids (and grown ups) and toys brought over. The cottage itself is stunning, beautifully decorated and the views are to die for! Never have i ever enjoyed washing up so much to look out at the view. Perfect location away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to anything you could need. Can not wait to stay again Hide

This cottage is incredible. Secluded and peaceful, stunning views and superior fixtures and fittings. After a lakeside walk in the rain, the bath and log fire were just what I needed. Will definitely return.

we had an unforgettable stay. The house is perfectly located just off the main road, but you still get the feeling of 'in the middle of nowhere'. We love the animals on the farm, very well taken care of, and our chats with the hosts. The house has all the comforts and beyond . Would gladly stay again. Thank you to the hosts.

Really nice and cosy, right in the heart of the farm. The owners are very friendly and took time out of their busy day (a few times) to show us round and introduce us to all the animals! The location was perfect, only a short drive to the picturesque villages and the larger steeper walks.
