What guests are saying
Cedar Nook is a unique and attractive barn conversion in a gorgeous location, a very pretty and quiet part of the Lakes.
A secluded and tranquil setting offering access to numerous walks, cycles, swims or kayak trips. With an excellent, famous Lakes Inn just 10 mins walk away.
A cancellation gave us the opportunity to stay at this very popular accommodation this year.
I jumped at the chance and wasn't disappointed with the secluded, rural setting of this cosy barn conversion in a quiet part of The Lakes. There is an excellent inn for meals a 10-15 minute walk away (although along country roads), but no local shop (a small general store is a 10 minute drive away, otherwise supermarkets in Cockermouth).
Absolutely incredible location with wonderful views .
Enough short walks through to strenuous hikes that you don’t have to move the car all week ! Cottage is spotless with everything you could ever need . Shower is fantastic . Kirkstile Inn close by is fabulous for food. A wonderful , peaceful place to stay - recommend it 100% for anyone who loves the outdoors and wants to get away from it all.
This is a stunning property and location to stay in - peaceful with wonderful views and so many walks from the door there is no need to move the car.
We have stayed before and highly recommend to anyone seeking excellent accommodation in a quiet location. Our thanks to the ever welcoming owners Ross and Sue.
Cedar Nook as definitely got the Wow factor.
It is a beautiful accommodation. Spotlessly clean, decorated to high standards and very well equipped. The scenery surrounding the accommodation is beautiful. I definitely will be booking to stay there again. I loved it.
Excellent location, superb accommodation with high quality fixtures and fittings, peaceful and relaxing
Another fantastic say at Cedar Nook, can’t fault the place, the location, all perfect.
Our second stay here.
Superb location for scenery and nearby excellent pub. Very well furnished and comfortable. Friendly and helpful owners. The only challenge is booking far enough ahead to secure a stay!
Cedar Nook is an exceptional find!
It is in an idyllic and rural location. It is immaculately presented and furnished to a very high standard, including the quality of the bedlinen and towels. The bathroom not only has a wonderful rain shower with excellent pressure (very important for females with long hair!), but a full length bath. It’s a 10 out 10 without question!
Excellent in every respect.
Stunning location with walks from the doorstep and a fabulous pub 10 minutes down the road. Friendly welcoming hosts without being intrusive....scones and a bottle of wine on arrival. A little piece of paradise.
Excellent in every respect.
A lovely property, beautifully situated.
We had terrible weather but still enjoyed our break
The property, grounds and surroundings lived up to our expectations from the description and previous reviews.
We would love to return in the future.
Cedar Nook is completely wonderful.
The cottage has everything we needed plus so much more. Its location is stunning, in a quiet corner of the Lake District with the most beautiful views. This was our fourth stay and we know we will be back many more times. Huge thanks to Sue and Ross… we shall look forward to seeing you again.
A fourth Stay for myself at this gorgeous cottage .
Gorgeous walks from the door , lovely pub a nearby walk away and great facilities to cook in as well .
Wonderful Christmas.
Thanks to Sue and Ross for the welcome goodies and decorating the cottage for Christmas. Our second visit to this magical cottage and not our last!
Cedar nook did not dissapoint.
It was better than expected. It was very well equiped in a perfect location for both local walks on your doorsteps and many other walks under a half hr journey. It was hard to leave and we have already booked to go back march and november as we were so very happy
Can’t fault it.
Lovely cottage, lovely location. Well done the owners for making such a welcoming and luxurious home to come back to after a day of the fell. We booked again straight away.
Another wonderful week at the beautiful Cedar Nook.
It’s the perfect little bolt hole away from city life!
A warm, welcoming and beautifully appointed cottage in the most stunning location.
Everything has been carefully thought of - It was so easy to hit the ground running and relax into a weekend of enjoying the surrounding fells. With the Kirkstile Inn just up the road, we were well fed and watered! Thank you for sharing your lovely space. We had a wonderful few days.
This cottage is an absolute jewel, spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable.
The hosts Sue and Ross are on hand if you need them which you won’t as the place is faultless, the views are breathtaking and the local pubs does excellent food.
Excellent location.
Beautiful property, very well equipped, with coffee machine. No need to use the car, plenty of walks from the door. Thank you for the wine, milk & delicious scones.
Excellent cottage in lovely quiet setting.
Everything you could need and very clean. Great walks from the door.
This was our third stay and we're already talking about our fourth!
Cedar Nook is a very special cottage. It ticks every box for us - very comfortable and stylish, gorgeous views and lovely animals on the farm. A great pub in walking distance is the icing on the cake.
It’s 10 Stars from us.
A perfect cottage in a perfect location. We had a fabulous week and we are really looking forward to returning next year.
We had a great week at Cedar Nook, weather was good, the cottage was lovely, hopefully we will return.
The scones where enjoyable as was the wine, thank you. Nice chatting to Ross, his little black spaniel was so friendly. We did some fabulous walks from the door with amazing views. One niggle was that the microwave was too high in the cupboard, very hard to see inside but that's just me, I am used to a work top height...
A very comfortable stay in a very peaceful and stunning area of the Lake District.
The owners are helpful and friendly. The cottage is extremely well equipped. We have booked for next year as there are so many walks I want to do and a visit to the Kirkstile Inn just down the road is always a highlight.
Lovely cottage, great facilities, couldn’t ask for better.
Great place to explore the area from.
Exceptional holiday let that is tastefully decorated and well equipped.
Outstanding location with on the doorstep access to great hiking and a great local pub. The views from the cottage were glorious and it was so peaceful. We slept every night with the bedroom window open and didn’t hear a peep. We will be back.
The perfect cottage Stunning views Great walks from the door One of best Lake District pubs v close by This was 3rd time and I plan to be back nextvyrar
Very cosy and clean with all the facilities needed for a week's stay.
Wonderful views and walks straight from the property. The owners, Sue and Ross provided a very nice and much needed welcome pack upon arrival.
The cottage is located in a stunning location, I can see why it is booked up so easily.
The shower is amazing and the underfloor heating keeps you all warm after a cold day out. The cottage has everything we needed and is really well decorated, a cozy warm vibe. I was very excited by the oven as it's like the ones in the great British Bake off. We were really sad to leave, the snow and ice didn't stop us from exploring it just made the stay even more magical. We will definitely return as the cottage and Crummock water are now very special to us as we got engaged during our stay. Thank you for making our holiday memorable and amazing!!!
We had a wonderful stay at Cedar Nook.
We appreciated the little extras the owners had provided (decorated lit Christmas tree, mulled wine, prosecco, milk, tea, coffee, Christmas cake and pastries) The cottage was well equipped, very clean with high quality linens, fluffy towels, comfortable bed and lovely furniture. An added bonus was an outside tap with handbrushes for cleaning off walking boots and wellies on return from the scenic walks available from the door. Coat hooks and a boot tray were available in the utility room just off the hallway. The ten minute walk to the Kirkstile Inn for a meal and drinks was ideal but be sure to pre-book a table as it's a very popular establishment. The food there is delicious. The owners Sue and Ross are very friendly and happy to pass on local information. We had a lovely week and would highly recommend Cedar Nook
PERFICK .
.. absolutely loved it ....! Cedar Nook is a superb property for two - it is excptionally clean, beautifully presented and appointed ... it is immaculately kept - can't fault it ... 5 stars + DELIGHTFUL ... The area around Loweswater and its surrounding area was lovely - so picturesque ... we had a quiet and peaceful week in an enchanting location. Lots of wonderful walks and the friendly hosts made our week complete... Loved Cedar Nook .... The cottage was in a superb setting - it's name was just so apt ... We will be back!
Perfect , nothing more to say 5 star more like ten , thank for our chats and the scones were wonderful , perfect spot , quite yet everything on the doorstep would thoroughly recommend
This is a lovely cottage, very comfortable and nicely presented.
The location is superb for walks directly from the cottage.
Property was amazing, visited in 2020 when we were out of lockdown and needed to visit again to truly appreciate the area, we were not disappointed.
Property was clean, comfortable and well equipped. We were blessed with amazing weather, we walked miles and had a fantastic break.
Loved our stay in this amazing place which is set in a stunning location with incredible views.
The property is immaculately kept and exceptionally clean, beautifully presented and appointed. The stunning kitchen has plenty of utensils with a good selection of teas, coffees, and the bottle of wine, milk, scones jam and butter were very welcome. Downstairs the bedroom is very comfortable with a good size bathroom and great shower as well as a useful utility room. Lots of wonderful walks, super local pub and wonderful friendly hosts. We will be back!
Wow - what a great spot !
Despite us going in peak season, this part of the Lakes was lovely and quiet. We took some bikes, parked the car on arrival and didn't need to drive until we left 7 days later :-) The property had everything - excellent layout and design; fine, quiet location; a lovely, large lawned area with the iconic cedar tree; views; peaceful; wildlife; great swimming, walking, running and cycling (on and off road); lovely hosts; free to walk around their lakes and see their trees, plants, swans, ducks, moorhens, horses; nice touches with scones, milk and wine on arrival; all facilities were high quality, including induction hobs, oven, microwave, fine cookware, crockery and cutlery, S&P grinders, cafetiere, coffee pod machine, fridge, freezer, great showers and bath etc etc. An excellent pub was within a short walking distance. Hope to visit again !
Lovely cottage in a quiet location but easy access to walks from the door.
We'll equipped and very clean.Looking forward to returning.
A stunning location for this property with marvellous fell views and surrounding countryside.
The property is fairly compact but beautifully equipped and furnished, making it deservedly very popular. This part of the lakes is quieter than many and has excellent mountain landscapes and three of the best lakes all in easy reach.
Delightful property and very friendly host.
Stunning views. Very well equipped with marvelous on the door step.
The cottage was superb the area perfect for views and walking and especially cycling Will definitely return Just to mention there is a microwave which was not mentioned in details Fantastic place to stay
Exactly as last year absolutely brilliant accommodation and location.
Clean tidy everything you could need. Welcome pack much appreciated the scones were lovely. Great walks straight from the cottage. Used the car only twice to visit Cockermouth and Ennerdale Water. Kirkstile Inn didn’t disappoint either. We will certainly return, thank you Ross and Sue great hosts.
Beautiful, warm and comfortable cottage in idyllic location - would like to rebook for another stay.
It may seem picky but a better nights sleep would be aided if the dripping tap in the kitchen and the rattly air vent in the bathroom could be fixed. These are minor things and did not detract from our stay.
Amazing stay, loved every minute of it
Lovely cottage,nice quality furniture and appliances.
Wine and scones a lovely surprise. Scenery outstanding,surrounding area adjacent to farm great and very peaceful.My wife loved the horses! A few suggested maintenance issues to sort, that the owner may not be aware of. The bathroom extractor fan is very noisy and runs for ages! Suggest a note by the bath to explain that you cannot have a hot bath with the hot tap on full.You need to reduce the flow otherwise the water is ‘luke warm’ The temperature in the bedroom was very hot when we arrived and difficult to modulate.Both upstairs and downstairs underfloor heating is on 24/7.This is waste of energy and adds unnecessary expense for the owner. Overall a brilliant place for a relaxing holiday.
Lovely stay.
Great location. The boiler was leaking and no hot water for two nights but the owners arranged a plumber and made a gesture of compensation at the end of our stay, which was appreciated. Good quality fixtures and fittings, really well equipped. Think there could be a little more attention to detail. Chipped plates, dripping kitchen tap, a tile piece loose around the base of the shower tray but the welcome of wine and scones, was a nice touch. Even had a knock on the door and the offer of some candles, during a power cut. I would highly recommend a stay. Thank you Sue and Ross.
We really liked our staying in your wonderful, comfortable cottage.
We will not soon forget the quiet and lovely view of the Lebanese Cedar tree! Such a sight for sore eyes! We hope to return in the future.
Cedar Nook is situated on a working farm with lovely views all around.
It is in a great location for exploring the northern lakes with good access to Cockermouth, Keswick, many good walks and pubs with good food nearby. It deserves its 5* rating as everything inside was high quality and very comfortable. Thank you for sharing it.
Cedar Nook is small but perfectly designed.
Nice decor, good facilities and set in beautiful gardens. The location and views are stunning. Lots of lovely local walks nearby and we enjoyed several meals within walking distance at the local pub - the Kirkstile Inn.
Ideal location with stunning views.
Lots of walk from the doorstep. The property was immaculate, the owners Ross & Sue have certainly gone that extra mile. Very relaxing holiday.
The owners were very friendly and welcoming, They had left very nice scones and a bottle of wine, which was appreciated.
The property was excellent and had a beautiful outlook.
We had a fabulous week at Cedar Nook and whilst the listing is totally accurate, the whole holiday exceeded our expectations.
The owners were very welcoming and friendly but also respected our privacy. The weather for us was pretty grim, but the cottage is spacious and very comfortable, with everything you could possibly need, so we would have been perfectly happy staying indoors if we'd wanted to. However, the location is equally magnificent, with plenty of walking from the door and stunning scenery, not to mention a few very good pubs in close proximity. We would highly recommend a stay here.
We have just enjoyed the most wonderful week at Cedar Nook.
The accommodation is excellent in terms of its location and facilities. Sue and Ross are extremely friendly and helpful and it was lovely to receive homemade scones and a nice bottle of wine on arrival. Cedar Nook is a short 10 minute walk to the Kirkstile Inn that we would highly recommend. It is also located close to some excellent Lakeside walks on Crummock and Loweswater. We absolutely loved our stay so much that we have already booked for next year.
Fantastic cottage with everything you need.
Lovely views and great walking from the door. Can't wait to revisit next year.
Beautiful property and location.
The owners were very welcoming and helpful. The welcoming extras (scones, wine, milk) were an added bonus as were the amazing eggs from their own free-range hens! I would thoroughly recommend this property.
Fantastic location, walks from the door, the view from the living room is stunning, local pub a short 10 minute walk which serves great food.
Everything you need for a peaceful relaxing break
This is a fabulous property right in the heart of the western Lake District.
Right up there with the best properties we have ever stayed at. The hosts were exceptional and helpful. The fell walks in this area are brilliant, and the property is within easy walking distance to the Kirkstile Inn. The renovated barn has all the modern amenities whilst still maintaining its charm, with great views.
Fantastic cottage, lovely and warm throughout, everything we needed, lovely welcome pack of wine, milk, tea, coffee and homemade scones, Welcoming and friendly hosts, we will definitely return to this amazing cottage.
The property was absolutely charming - we had a great week and would be glad to come back.
The setting is idyllic.
A beautiful, luxurious cottage with stunning views.
Owners Sue & Ross have thought of everything. A superb comfortable bed, luxury bathroom with plush towels. The underfloor heating keeps the cottage warm and cosy. The upstairs living area has a fabulous kitchen and beautiful wooden floor. One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Lots of walks nearby and within a 10 minute walk to the Kirkstile Inn. A great base. Would highly recommend.
Cedar Nook is perfect in every way.
This was our second visit and we are already planning our third! Love the fact that you can walk from the cottage door and there is such a range of walks. This is truly one of our happy places.
What a perfect week in lovely Cedar Nook, Welcomed by lovely dogs and comforting wine and scones and a lovely underfloor heating system.
I was then spoilt by the weather of continuous days of sun, cold and snow. Walked all local fells and only drove once to local shop to buy a nice roll and lovely steak pie .. Ate in the lovely Kirkstile Inn on a number of nights - just a 10min walk away. and a lovely large bath to relax and soak the aching limbs after the cold climbs each day.. Thank you
Excellent accommodation, fabulous views and location for walking and relaxing
Excellent property and lovely owners
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your fantastic holiday cottage, despite the weather.
It is furnished to a very high standard, one of the best, holiday rental we’ve stayed in. Ross and Sue were wonderful hosts and came to our rescue when we had a problem with our Land Rover. Thank you so much. We will be back to stay, hopefully, next year
Lovely cottage in beautiful location.
This was our second stay at Cedar Nook and it lived up to our expectations again.
The scones and bottle of wine were greatly appreciated! The property is very comfortable and contains everything we need for a week’s self catering stay. Ross and Sue are lovely welcoming hosts. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and at the time of year we stayed (late October) lovely and peaceful. Thoroughly recommended.
Our second visit but hopefully not our last.
We love Cedar Nook. The combination of the fabulous location and very comfortable accommodation can't be beaten in our opinion. Love the gorgeous horses and we're missing seeing them from the window (and feeding them a daily carrot).
Third time we’ve stayed so that says a lot.
Great location for walking. Facilities are just what you need for a pleasant stay. Shower is so powerful. Cannot think of anything to improve it.
Lovely property in a beautiful area Just perfect Thank you
Absolutely fantastic cottage and location.
Beautifully finished and furnished with all the equipment you could want. We have stayed in carefully selected cottages for many years and this has to be the best yet. Thank you to the owners for their hospitality.
Cedar Nook is just perfect.
A little slice of Heaven.
Wonderful accommodation in a beautiful location.
Had a great week of walking and touring the area. It was a pleasure to come back to Cedar Nook which is well presented and provided everything we needed to a very high standard. The scones and wine were a lovely welcome gift. Thank you.
Second visit - as good as first.
We have already booked for next year
Another fab stay in this perfect property with friendly hosts and pets.
So clean and comfortable. Thanks for the delicious scones, flowers and wine. Can’t wait to come again.
Another great stay at Cedar Nook!
It was always our desire to return after a previous November stay to enjoy longer days in the spring. We were certainly rewarded with some beautiful weather. The cottage retains all the charm we remembered and it’s remote location provides a peaceful oasis in the north Lakeland fells.
Cedar Nook is a lovely little cottage for two, beautifully furnished with very high quality amenities.
The views from the cottage are amazing and it is perfectly located to explore the Lakes whilst being in a quieter area off the busiest tourist track. We loved simply having breakfast in the garden, watching the horses and the weather changing across the landscape. We would love to visit again.
The cedar Nook is in a very pretty location.
The cottage is very well equipped. It’s warm and has a lovely view. It is a perfect place to stay! There are walks on the doorstep and a pub serving delicious meals a ten minute walk away.
Most definitely the best location and accommodation that we have ever stayed in - an absolute jewel in the Northern Lake District
We really enjoyed our stay at Cedar Nook.
The accommodation was of an excellent standard, well equipped and very comfortable. The surrounding area was beautiful. We would definitely like to stay there again.
This is the second time we have stayed at Cedar Nook and it was just as good as the first; even though the weather wasn't great.
Ideal location with stunning views and walks on your doorstep. Friendly and helpful owners live next door and great food in the pub just a few minutes walk away. We highly recommend staying Cedar Nook
Cedar Nook is very highly recommended - location is fabulous and it has amazing views.
Such a bonus to have a pub within walking distance too. This isn't an area we have previously visited but it is so much to offer and we couldn't do it justice as unfortunately one of us broke an ankle badly so we had to return home early. However we've already booked for next autumn, so taken were we with the property and the area. The owners have provided everything possible to ensure a comfortable stay. We loved the horses there!
Just booked again for next year.
This place is top notch, sparkly clean, comfortable bed and sofa, wow views, dark skies and friendly owners. We appreciated the light and tasty scones with a cuppa after a long drive, along some wine and fresh flowers during our stay - nice touch. Great pub short walk away, yes you can walk to it after a long day in the fells. Thanks for sharing you great property.
Cedar Nook is absolutely stunning, as is the surroundings and scenery.
A truly relaxing place to stay.
Wonderful, everything that you can imagine was provided to make our festive stay perfect.
Lovely people too. We would not hesitate to return and recommend.
Our week at Cedar Nook was perfect it had everything we needed from the cleanliness ,facilities and the wonderful views from the windows.
Ross & Sue are great hosts and we would highly recommend this place for a holiday in this part of the Lake District
Beautiful, unspoilt location, walks from the door.
Fantastic cottage and very warm welcome by the owners.
Absolutely fantastic week at Cedar Nook, owners went the extra mile to make us feel welcome with fresh scones etc on arrival.
Cottage was beautiful in a stunning location, can’t wait to come back to Cedar Nook.
