Mrs Daniel
October 2021

“Just found the parking a little bit tight as our allocated space was next to a wall and the vehicle for No 3 didn't leave much room.”

We found the meals at the Royal Oak, tasty and generous, and the staff very friendly and obliging. Necessary to book as very popular.

“Stayed here many times over last fifteen years, great location, excellent cottages.”

I will come again.

“This is a cosy, warm property with plenty of hot water available due to a combi boiler.”

We greatly enjoyed our stay here. In answer to previous comments from people, there is no leak in the twin room any more, although it does have a damp problem on one wall in that room. Our kids didn't have any issues with the mattresses. There is one allocated parking space at the property so if you've only brought one car that won't be an issue.

“A clean, warm, well kept, cosy cottage, which was comprehensively equipped.”

“Looks good even though small.”

Parking is an issue and there is no garden if you have a dog. Our issue was a poor mattress in the twin bedroom and a leak in the roof for that same bedroom. More importantly the owner/manager didn’t really want to do anything about it and even though we highlighted these issue. I’m sure with their attitude this cottage is re-rented without being repaired. They wouldn’t answer our calls but text instead. More importantly the hot water system was intermittent with the shower giving cold showers (very cold) 4 out of 6 times. Not a home from home at all. They did offer our money back if we left but it’s was only a refund on the nights we wouldn’t be there, not compensation for being a wake all night and not having hot water etc. I would not recommend this property and it spoilt our holiday.

“The main issue is the parking - so many people in a small courtyard - no outside sitting for cottage no 2.”

Braithwaite is a lovely little village to stay.

Old Farmhouse Mews, Cumbria

Nestled right in the heart of Braithewaite village in a stunning region of Cumbria, surrounded by towering fells waiting to be climbed, Old Farmhouse Mews offers a wonderful collection of accommodation for large groups. Each is wonderfully appointed with plenty of space to unwind with your loved ones after an adventure in the local area. You can return to cook up tasty meals in the kitchen and get together around the dining table, before relaxing into your evening and making the most of an idyllic setting. Outside there is a communal yard with seating for you to sit out and soak up a warm summer's afternoon with a drink, and there is plenty of parking for several cars. Braithwaite is a very desirable village, with three good pubs, one which has been runner up for several years for CAMRAs prestigious pub of the year award, along with a village shop serving freshly baked bread and other produce. From the village are many fell walks, including the Coledale Round, offering an awe-inspiring trail through a classic u-shaped valley with stunning views and not a walk to be taken lightly. The Whinlatter Visitors Centre is close by and is great for children, with a tea room hosting a balcony for viewing red squirrels and woodland birds, an outdoor play area, mountain bike trail and several paths to explore around the forest. Venture across to Keswick for numerous shops and restaurants, as well as a visit to the Derwent Pencil Museum, Keswick Museum and Art Gallery and the famous Theatre by the Lake. There is also miniature golf, excellent parks, a climbing wall, and opportunities for fishing and mountain biking, whilst the beautiful lake of Derwentwater at the head of the Borrowdale Valley is not to be missed or is the Castlerigg Stone Corcle, thought to be 5000 years old. With so much to see and do in the surrounding area, bring your loved ones along to share a memorable break in Cumbria.

About the location

BRAITHWAITE

Keswick 3 miles.

Between the magnificent northern lakes of Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite, lies the village of Braithwaite. Still retaining much of its traditional appeal, the Coledale Beck runs through the village with whitewashed Lakeland cottages, two village shops and two real ale Inns each brimming with character! Between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw, there really is something for everyone. Visit Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the lake with an open-air theatre, or take a trip around the lake. Lake District Wildlife Park, Dodd Wood, Derwentwater, and Keswick with its wide range of attractions, are also within easy reach.
