• "Really excellent cottage."

  Very comfortable and kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. Only one thing we found was the TV is way to small. Could really do with a larger one for the size of the living area. Would recommend this cottage.

  Many thanks for your recommendation: we are so pleased that you enjoyed your New Year stay and that you found our holiday home “comfortable and excellent “ . We try to keep it home from home for all of our guests, but sadly, in this case, we cannot install a bigger TV without it blocking part of the window, which we would find unacceptable from an aesthetic and from a safety point of view as this window faces south. We prefer to keep a comfortable sitting area where all occupants can relax and enjoy all aspects of the room, watching TV, conversing with each other, playing games and enjoying the log fire in the winter, and the scents of the roses and the sounds of the birdsong in the summer. …. just as we love to do!

• "We recently stayed at Rainbow cottage over Christmas."

  Donna called me a few days before to see if we had any questions or needed anything etc. Upon arrival we instantly fell in love with the cottage. With a teenager, two babies and a dog we sometimes struggle to find a cottage that has everything we need and that caters for everyone. This was not the case here in any way shape or form. The cottage had everything we needed and more. The cottage was immaculate and was extremely comfortable. It really did feel like a home from home. Our youngest unfortunately became ill whilst we were here (apologies to the neighbours for the upset crying in the middle of the night!) but because the cottage was so lovely it helped us to keep her as comfortable as possible while she got better. We are already looking at dates for us to stay again. Thank you for the special touches Donna and the presents under the tree. Your thoughtfulness and attention to detail did not go unnoticed at all. We cannot wait to stay at Rainbow cottage again. X

  Thank you for your appreciation: we are looking forward to seeing you again . Property Owner

• "Wow! Rainbow Cottage is an absolutely gorgeous property located in a stunning part of the country."

  Our party consisted of 2 adults, 3 children and the dog. The cottage is spacious and absolutely immaculate inside and out. There's everything you need there to assist a stress free stay... the owners had even left towels for the dog which was great as we'd forgotten ours... they've literally thought of everything. The surrounding area is great with plenty of works both straight from the cottage itself or a short car ride away. Appleby is a lovely little town with a couple of nice pubs (dog friendly), a few good shops (one especially for those who like Harry Potter) and a nice walk by the river. The owners contacted us a couple of days prior to our stay and made sure we had all we needed. I'd be very surprised if we don't stay here again... we loved it

  Thank you so much for your appreciation: we’re so pleased that you’ve enjoyed your holiday at Rainbow Cottage. You’re obviously kindred spirits and you’ll be very welcome next time you are ready for some lovely countryside and a comfortable homecoming. Property Owner

• "The owners made contact with us to ensure that we had everything that we needed."

  The cottage was well equipped, clean, tidy and comfortable. Location wise it is perfectly placed for exploring the Lakes - Kendal, Keswick, Windermere etc.

• "We have just returned from a lovely week’s stay at Rainbow Cottage as a group of 4 adults and 2 young children."

  The house was spotlessly clean and very nicely presented. The location is great, the village has a brilliant play park and we enjoyed the food at the pub. We found it a great base to explore the local area. Things we loved: gorgeous views, well equipped kitchen, nice open living space, ample bathrooms, very quiet, high chair and children’s utensils were really handy. Things I’d improve: The towels provided are tiny! Almost like large hand towels, some bath sheets would be a nice addition. The wifi was very slow and the reach of the router very poor, could do with a better quality router box. We all hurt our shins on the very sharp edges of the wooden bed frames! Furniture while nice quality, is a bit bulky and cumbersome in the smaller rooms. Would’ve preferred a simple chest of drawers and some hanging hooks in bedroom 2 so there could’ve been a bit more space for 2 adults to move around. Overall we had a great week and we would definitely stay again. Thanks for having us!

  Many thanks for your appreciation of our Cumbrian escape. We are so lucky to have such a lovely, friendly village, and yes the Memorial Park is a treasure, for kids of all ages, people with dogs and just a gentle walk or the start of a more extensive ramble . We have taken on board your suggestions and will do our best to implement what we can for your next visit. .. we already have the router and the bath sheets. Property Owner

  Thank you. We’re so pleased that you’ve enjoyed your stay in Rainbow Cottage and I am over the moon that you appreciated my little garden.

• "Beautiful home in pristine condition stocked with everything needed for a vacation away from home."

  Great location with plenty of places to see only a short drive away. There were six of us on this stay, three generations and a dog. There was plenty of room for us all. If we had any concerns it was simply that the house was pristine and we were constantly watching the 2 and 4 year old to make sure we could leave the house as we found it.

  We’re so pleased that you have enjoyed your holiday in Rainbow Cottage and you will always be welcome. Congratulations on succeeding with your family party, toddler and dog: you did a wonderful job…thank you and come back soon. Property Owner

• "The best cottage we have stayed in with comfortable beds and sofas."

  All the appliances were top class and a lovely safe enclosed garden for our little dog. The neighbours both sides were very friendly and stopped for a chat. Well done to the owner for thinking about the little things that make it like home. Would highly recommend this first class cottage.

  Thank you so much: it’s so lovely that you’ve enjoyed our holiday home as much as we do; and you’ll always be very welcome at Rainbow Cottage. We hope you’ll be just as comfortable on your onward journey. Property Owner

• "Beautiful modern and comfortable cottage in a quiet location yet close to all the amenities in Appleby and fantastic walks, locally and away."

  The cottage was so clean and well equipped with a nice garden in a small cul de sac on the outskirts of Bolton. Local pub a short stroll up the road where the food was excellent. The owner was so helpful and friendly with phone calls and texts when you don’t always have any communication with the owners directly. Could not fault this property.
