ClariTurf-4 Bed House-Stadia,Parks,Canal-SkyN 'flix
Great two day stay for our family of four. The place is right near Turf Moor in a clean and light area. The space is recently renovated and bright. And the host is very responsive to any needs that arise. Great stay. Thank you.

Superb 3 Bedroom Sandstone Home with private Lake
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Abbots Moss. It was last minute (same day booking) and everything was ready and in order. The house was definitely a home away from home which is exactly what I am looking for. We have two children and a very well behaved golden - all loved the location and the house. The grounds and lake are exquisite and so peaceful. The lounge area was beautifully decorated with sofas I would purchase for my own home. Linens are also something I look for and the beds were all lovely. We enjoyed the area, eating out at some local recommendations, visiting Hadrian's Wall, completing our first family Wainwright summit! Thank you Tamar. We would love to return!

Quakers Field View
We really enjoyed our stay - close to Ulverston, the Priory and many places we aimed to see during our visit. Lindsay corresponded quickly. The house is very comfortable, very clean and nicely decorated as in the photos - we wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you Lindsay. :)

Luxurious and Peaceful Lakeside House, Clitheroe
Absolutely fantastic stay! One of the best properties we've stayed in. Stunning location, had everything we needed inside and out, top spec facilities and Abbi was a great host. No doubt we'll be returning in the future :)

Greenlea- incredible views of the Bay.
Amazing place to stay in the Lake District. A group of friends and I stayed here for 4 nights whilst we were exploring the Lake District and it was the perfect place to stay for what we needed. Great location with amazing views over Morecambe bay and plenty of things to do. The property was immaculate and very spacious. Cleanliness was not an issue. Our host was also very easy to contact and communicate with. I would most definitely stay here again and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the Lake District. From Shane & Co

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.

Dunmallet - Pooley Bridge
The stay surpassed our expectations as Gareth has made improvements since the photos were taken! Great place to stay and well located less than 1 minute walk into the centre of Pooley Bridge! Plenty of things to do and amenities. Would reccomend if you are wanting to stay in Pooley Bridge!

Sandpiper, No:41 Port Haverigg Marina village
Absolutely fabulous stay! Gorgeous views and have never felt so relaxed in a short space of time. Liz and Dave’s directions were brilliant and helped us find their plot with ease. The caravan had a lovely, clean and fresh smell as we arrived and it was spotless. Beautiful surroundings and so peaceful. Considering there were so many other caravans close by, it felt really private and like it was just us there. We were gutted to come home and cannot wait to come back! We’re already planning our return trip and cannot recommend Liz and Dave’s property enough! Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

Mountain Cottage - Quirky at it's best
A cozy multilevel home with lots of character. The kitchen and dining area are fairly small/cozy, but they worked for us (5 adults). The home has beautiful views and a nice private outdoor area for reading/relaxing. **Be sure to read the parking instructions, and watch the parking video.** We didn’t and so our rental van, a VW MPV almost got stuck going up the driveway that has a sharp corner. A smaller car would be ok, and definitely if it has 4WD/AWD. Even the postman spun a tire on his way up the drive. You can walk to a parking lot at the base of the hill leading to the base of Old Man Coniston trail. It’s <5 min walk up the hill and to the right, from the back of the house. You can park there for £8 for 24 hours. Old Man Coniston is a nice walk - though be aware of the weather. It was misty/foggy/windy for us - and very much so at the top - which made it quite an adventure. We needed a phone/gps map to complete the loop trail.

Luxury 3-Bed Duplex | Pets, Lake Views, 2xParking

Sunny Brae, Windermere Cottage
perfect last minute booking. very clean, loads of space, perfect location, so close to town but also so close to hills! 10/10 would stay again. thankyou !

Great family house for 6, parking , accepts 1 dog
Elisabeth's property is a great place located in a beautiful area, that is extremely close to shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs. Located close to Skiddaw and Lake Derwent, you can leave the house and chose a hike of your choice. The house is equipped with everything you need and I will be looking to return when back in the area.

Quaint Butterfly Lodge in wonderful rural setting
Such a beautiful place to stay - incredible views and so peaceful - just birdsong. The house was perfect - super comfy bed, well equipped kitchen, warm and clean. Thank you for the lovely bread too - such a nice touch. Would very much recommend.

Luxury Pet Friendly 3 Bedroom Home with Copper Tub
Absolutely stunning property, location was literally 2 minutes walk into the centre. The property had everything we needed and the host was very responsive, we had a fantastic stay, thank you xx

Kiln Brow Retreat, cosy place to stay.
I would thoroughly recommend this property. It was immaculately clean and well equipped. We had a problem with the shower and David got back to me in minutes sorting it out. The location is quiet, in beautiful countryside within easy reach of the lakes and sea, and with easy parking outside the house.

Autumn Wks Ambleside Sleep6 Mountain View Balcony
House was as described, beautiful setting with wonderful views of the hills and mountains. Rooms are spacious with comfy beds and bathrooms are nicely finished with good showers. Kitchen is a good size and has all required implements. A great location for exploring the central lakes and soaking up all that Ambleside has to offer.

Clean, peaceful house within minutes of abundant amenities of Keswick with numerous walks from the front door or via nearby bus stops. Perfect.

Bassenthwaite Lake Old Smoke House
Annabel is a great person and very helpful. She suggested few places to visit, which comes out worthy to visit. She is very responsive with all of our questions. I definitely want to visit this place again soon. It’s a perfect getaway from crowds and spend some time with nature without any disturbances.

Spacious Holiday Home, Sleeps 13
John was a great host with constant communication throughout the stay. The check in was very easy with no issues at all. The location is amazing with great hikes around the lake district and a good choice of local places for food and coffee. The accommodation was well decorated and great sleeping arrangements. I would recommend John as a host to anyone.

Rum butter home
Thank you for a great stay. The accommodation is very central to lots of amenities and restaurants. Also close by to lots of attractions. The property was clean and very comfortable. We did struggle to locate the property as main entrance not on the main road.

Great place to stay. Perfect location. Useful to know: The house has 3 floors. The bathroom is on the top floor. There is an additional shower room off the kitchen.
