"This is a wonderful property and the owners are friendly but not intrusive."
We had a perfect 2 weeks away from our real world. Ruben and Nicole work incredibly hard and it really shows. I am sure we will return.

"A lovely location over looking the lake on a working farm."
The cottage is very cosy and nice and warm with everything you could need. Hot tub is an added bonus after a long day doing activities. The kids loved getting to know the farm animals especially the sheep! A lovely stay, even if the weather wasn’t kind to us!!

"What a beautiful cottage, in an absolutely stunning location."
The hot tub was a very welcome addition after a long day in the hills. Great to be surrounded by the livestock too. The hosts were an absolutely delightful, as was the dog! Already looking at return dates.

"Great location, property was really nice."
We didn’t feel the hot tub area was all that private with overlooking windows etc. so didn’t use it. Installing usb plug sockets next to the beds and also a usb socket in the lounge would be a great addition (no criticism just an suggestion).The driveway could benefit from infilling the ridges with gravel, fully understand this is working farm. All that said, great property and awesome location, we had a nice relaxing stay and would both recommend and return.

"Shepherds Cottage was just perfect for our stay."
It was beautifully clean and very well equipped. The hot tub was an added bonus. Location was ideal and the views were lovely. Staying on a working farm was delightful. Waking up to the sheep and being greeted at the kitchen window by the cows and calves was great. We were able to really relax and unwind. We would not hesitate to recommend Shepherds Cottage and look forward to returning.

"We loved every minute of our stay in this perfectly appointed cottage."
We couldn't have asked for a better base for our Lakes holiday. The cottage was spotlessly clean, well equipped, and had the most comfortable beds! Watching the lambs outside was a joy, and although we didn't use the hot tub, this is a fab added extra to have available.

"Beautiful little cottage situated in an idyllic part of the lake district."
Beautiful views from all windows including lake and hills, had fun watching the lambs playing in the field at the front of the cottage and the calfs running around from the kitchen window at the side of the property. This clean well equipped cottage is just what we needed for a relaxing break. Well done to the owners Reuben and Nicole

We were very fortunate to enjoy some great weather. The lodge was clean and well presented and the welcome pack was appreciated. The lodge is in a perfect location to explore the Lake District and the nearby village of Hawkshead has everything you need to complete your perfect holiday.

"We had a wonderful break here at this idyllic location."
Photos don’t do this place justice, it’s absolutely beautiful inside and has everything you need for a self catering stay. Hosts are very welcoming. Would highly recommend this place if you’re looking for R&R on the edge of a village with amenities. Fabulous walks from the cottage, we’re already looking to book again for a stay in the winter. Hot tub an absolute plus to enjoy after a day’s walking. A little piece of heaven in the Lake District.

"We had a brilliant week here and would love to come back again."
The location is perfect - we visited in February half term and it was a perfect mix of enough things going on in Hawkshead to keep us busy, but not overwhelmingly busy like other areas such as Bowness. The property was beautiful, we couldn't have asked for a better base. I also owe a big thank you to the hosts who saved us one evening when the Tooth fairy made an unexpected visit and we were out of change! Thank you again!

"This was a beautiful cottage, hosted by a beautiful family, from the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome."
We were stuck in the blizzard that occurred over the weekend and the family at Howe farm went above and beyond to help us out, we cannot thank them enough. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and had everything you need in the kitchen, it was a perfect break and we’ve already said we would go back there.

"A really lovely, cosy cottage located on a scenic farm."
The cottage has good facilities and the guest information book has everything you need to know. The hot tub was lovely! The little touches such as slippers, robes and milk in the fridge were appreciated. A Short walk into hawkshead village, and lots to do near-by.
A couple of minor negatives: I personally found the pillows quite uncomfortable, and the shower is very slippery, I would reccomend placing a shower mat. Other than that, we had a really lovely time and I would stay here again.
