“Lovely location situated in a nice quiet village.”

Very close to the local pub. Not far from Cat Bells which is a beautiful walk there are some stunning walks straight from the front door. Would definitely stay here again

“First class from booking to arriving.”

Derwent Edge cottage was just what we expected and more. A real home from home with great facilities and everything thought of. We are planning to go back for another long weekend. Great location and within easy access of Keswick and stunning views en route.

“Just perfect.”

Location was good. Far enough to be out of the hussel but close enough to all amenities. From arrival the car never moved till we went home again. We are planning our next visit as,soon as we can. I would say,if i had to be really picky,that the shower could do with abit more pressure but its definitely not a negative in any way. Think we have found a hidden gem in Derwent Edge.

“Great location.”

Average cottage that could do with an update/refurbishment, bit shabby in places. Outside could do with a tidy up. Cottage does contain all the necessary items. We understand this was a dog friendly cottage, but the strong dog smell was present.

“Perfect place to stay in the Lakes”

We usually go to Coniston to a company that rents lovely cottages so this was a bit of an experiment- one that paid off. The cottage is fabulous, the location excellent- near popular places but in a small village. Better equipped than most. Next to a lovely pub that takes dogs. Will book again soon.

“Delightful cosy cottage”

We were visiting for a 50th wedding anniversary celebration. My brother lives in Keswick and his wife's family live in Portinscale, so the cottage was perfect for our needs. A quiet, peaceful location but with an easy flat walk into Keswick. Also a very short walk to the launch. Very comfortable and with everything we could have required. We appreciated the large area for storing muddy boots, etc. We will definitely be recommending to friends and family. Our favourite pub in the area was the Swinside Inn. All their food was good but the slow cooked lamb was incredible. We also enjoyed a celebration meal at The Chalet in Portinscale and at the same time discovered they did breakfasts. We had a full English on our last morning which set us up well for our 7 hour drive home!

“Great base from which to explore this beautiful area.”

Cottage was clean, cosy and comfortable but there was no 'welcome pack' and there are no shops in the village so would advise bringing essentials with you. The location is ideal for walkers with lots of places to explore in the area. Lovely walks around Lake Derwent and you can take the launch across the lake to various stops. We chose this cottage because it is 'dog friendly', but the garden is not enclosed- did not matter for us as our dog does not wander. Good value for money.

“what more could you ask for”

The booking agent was a plesure to deal with. The information provided with regards to directions and description of accommodation was absolutley spot on. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and the owners have done a first class job of providing just about everything you could think of make your holiday memorable. We were totally impressed with the level of service and standard of accommodation and for our first time ver holidaying in England we had a very good experience. Thankyou for makeing it worth it.
