Fantastic cottage, very quiet location with wonderful views.. Everything we needed for a relaxing break. The cottage is very well equipped and everything was of the highest standard. Hot tub was a great bonus as we had lovely weather. Good location for both Windermere and Coniston lakes. Would recommend.

The cottage is amazing.. Beautiful surroundings and great facilities. We were lucky with the weather so spent a fair bit of time in the garden and the hot tub which was fabulous. The cottage has everything you could ever need, the beds etc were really comfortable and showers were good. If there was one tiny niggle it would be that it’s difficult to control the temperature with the underfloor heating. Downstairs was boiling while upstairs was much more comfortable. Loved it though. Will definitely go back.

Lime Cottage was a gorgeous place and we thoroughly enjoyed our week there! We stayed there with our 2 children who really enjoyed the hot tub! Everything we needed was there including a welcome basket with bread, eggs, jam and prosecco. There was shampoo and shower gel in both bathrooms as well as a hairdryer, which was really handy. The owners were really nice and welcoming. We look forward to going back up there and definitely recommend the place!

What lovely accommodation, everything was spotless, well equipped & furnished.. The rooms are huge, warm & welcoming after long walks by the sea or in the countryside. Having your own paddock to keep your dog or children safe is a great bonus . The house is charming, & has an atmosphere of calm, which did me a world of good. Loved every moment of our holiday

Mrs Alexader, December 2016

I booked the cottage for the weekend as a surprise for our first wedding anniversary, and it was absolutely perfect.. The pictures don't do justice to the gorgeous property which was everything we asked for and more. Thank you so much, we had an incredible weekend and would love to stay again, probably with friends or family as there is more than enough room. Can't recommend highly enough - thank you!!
