Kid-friendly vacation rentals in River Eden

First Cottage is beautifully situated, incredibly quiet with stunning views. Cottage was comfortably furnished and immaculately clean. We had everything we needed for our stay in generous amounts, nothing felt skimped or compromised. Janice and David were perfect, generous hosts, responding promptly to queries without ever being intrusive.

We had a lovely couple nights at Margaret’s place! It was so homely , clean and quiet. I would happily stay again

We had a lovely stay at Tethera Nook, it had everything we needed and was very comfortable for our group. The space itself is very well thought out and we loved the bath, the gardens, the friendly chickens and the super comfy beds, thank you Emma and Craig.

Lovely place to stay, the home is beautiful

I had a wonderful stay at Sharu's place! The space was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. Sharu was a responsive and thoughtful host, making check-in smooth and hassle-free. The neighborhood was quiet, beautiful and conveniently located near everything I needed. I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone visiting the area and would happily stay here again!

We overnighted here on our C2C bike ride. The house is just off the route and easy to find. The conservatory was great for keeping our bikes safe overnight and the house is within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants that we needed for ‘re-fuelling’. Highly recommended.

Perfect location. 10/10. I did not want to leave. Comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, unbelievable views, superb location, easy access to logs for fire with which my husband was delighted. 100% would return... tomorrow if it was possible! Our dog (border terrier) had a fantastic time too and was very interested in the wee hedgehog who appeared to be living in the bushes outside and the free range chickens!! There was also a free range doggo popping round to the garden in the evening. Vigilance/ Lead/ supervision was a must for our super inquisitive pup.

Just perfect. Lovely clean , well docorated property in a lovely location. Just a shame the next door pub is closed on a Monday. We had a lovely walk to the next village and ate there instead. Really nice stay and if we're that way again it'll first on the list of places to stay

We had a lovely stay; the location is wonderful, surrounded by farmland with baby lambs overlooking the seating area! The apartment is very well specced and looked after, with a small garden house further up the hill opposite and an amazing river a short walk across the fields where we went for a swim. The photos do not do the property justice, it is a gem. Would definitely come back to use as a quiet base to explore the lakes from again.

This was one of those places that you would wish to keep a secret. The views are breathtaking, the area is quiet, perfect for a retreat for people willing to charge their batteries from their busy lives. It's a bit off the beaten track, so you need a car or a taxi from the train station to get there, but you can rest from the busy touristic towns of the Lake District. Jeanette was a very discreet and lovely host. She furbished the place with great care. Thank you Jeanette for hosting us, your place was a dream come true!

We had a wonderful weekend back in Penrith, having moved away several years ago. Apartment was beautifully decorated and ideally located in the centre of town. Pauline went out of her way to ensure we had clear instructions for check in, and during out stay...including leaving fresh hand wash on the door step. Thank you for our stay. Would definitely recommend!

Simply a perfect stay at Tann's place - the space has everything you need and I love the Hadrian's Wall theme. Check in instructions probably the most comprehensive I've seen on AirBnB and Tann was professional and kind with all comms. Thank you for a lovely stay - this will definitely be my first choice if I'm ever in the area again

Loved Leigh-Ann's place, it felt so homely and is beautifully finished. She was also really helpful when we left our son's comforter behind. Thank you for a lovely stay

An absolutely beautiful accommodation, comfortable & large in a glorious setting. Zoe is so friendly, unassuming & helpful. Encouraged us to wander around her lovely garden, the very old courtyard & surroundings. Her dogs & cats add to the pleasant home stay atmosphere. The breakfast supplies, tea & coffee were very generous. Zoe booked us into a nearby pub for dinner which was a good idea as they can be very busy. There are a number of things to see in nearby towns. We would have loved to have stayed for much longer & will definitely return to Zoe’s if we ever get back to the UK.

This bijpu bedsit is perfect for a single person. Peaceful and private, and with everything I needed. The bed was really comfortable, and the whole place was immaculately clean. I was really happy to see environmental measures in place. The location is perfect - spot on for accessing this part of the Lakes, with so many beautiful spots within easy driving distance. Kath's communications were clear and friendly and fast. I would recommend this accommodation and its owners without hesitation.

Great place, great walks , would recommend !!!

Angela's place is cosy and comfortable, as close to the delightful town centre of Penrith as it is to the larger shops for all needed supplies and very near the lovely local park with castle ruins to explore. One word of wisdom for future visitors is that you do need to turn on the second pull switch in the bathroom to get the shower going, but after that it's a lovely warm shower too.

We had a wonderful stay at No Eleven The Iron Works, even before our break started we had great communication from Glyn, with lots of recommendations. We arrived to an extremely thoughtful gift basket with lots of treats ( the jelly beans were delicious ) The apartment is beautifully decorated with lots of great touches, we really appreciated that we had everything we needed, we only ate out one evening because we felt so comfortable in the apartment. Nothing was too much trouble for Glyn and his wife. I cannot recommend a stay here enough and we will be back. Thank you so much to both Glyn and his wife for making our stay so amazing.

Abigail’s is the most beautiful home! We visit every year not only because of the home but because of Simone, the host is amazing!! She really is a 10/10 host, very easy to talk to, caring and very responsive to your needs! We feel very lucky to spend our time in the lakes but thats a huge thank you to Abigail’s for making our holiday special! Thank you Simone - you’re amazing 🤩

David was a very responsive host, communicated instructions very well and made sure I had what I needed for my daughter. The location was perfect for what we needed as it was a pitstop for a longer journey and just off the motorway. It was clean and tidy and had clear instructions that were easy to find.

Absolutely lovely flat just steps from Penrith town centre, ideal for a weekend break. Comfortable and clean with really tasteful decor, well equipped kitchen and a surprisingly spacious bedroom. We parked in Morrison’s car park which is only a couple of minutes walk and were able to leave the car there for the whole weekend, topping up parking using the RingGo app, Penrith is easily walkable with a few nice bars and restaurants plus the Beacon is fab for a stroll to a beautiful viewpoint. I’d definitely stay at Allison’s place if I return to the town.

The Barn really is a gem. We were amazed as we arrived how beautiful and peaceful the surroundings were. Kate gave clear instructions how to get there which was really helpful as we found other times on our trip the sat nav led us astray! The barn is so cosy and beautifully furnished, you can tell it’s been done with love and is stylish but very practical too. Had everything we needed for our weekend stay. After a wet day out walking coming back to a hot shower and putting on the wood burner was amazing! We loved our stay and would absolutely come back.

I had a wonderful few days at Mark and Kristen's place with my dog. I've stayed in many properties at a similar price point in the area and this was definitely my favourite so far. The cottage was even more quaint and beautiful than the photos, and there were so many thoughtful touches, including welcome biscuits and fresh milk in the fridge, lovely bed linen and blankets for the sofa. Mark and Kristen were perfect hosts, super responsive with my queries. I would recommend their place to any friend looking for a peaceful place to stay for exploring the north eastern fells.

This is the perfect getaway if you want friendly hosts, beautiful and peaceful surroundings, and clean and comfortable accommodation. Julie and Paul are brilliant hosts, making us feel welcome and at home straight away. The accommodation had everything we needed (including a cork screw for the bottle of wine!). The shower was excellent, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was well equipped. Highly recommended!
