I would not hesitate in recommending Honeypot Cottage. It is cosy, comfortable & very well furnished & decorated. It was very clean & tidy & every home comfort had been thought about. The warmth from the Aga range in the kitchen made entering the cottage so welcoming. There were books, DVD’s, games and cards all provided if required. The views from the garden are spectacular. ...

The information on the cottage & surrounding attractions & pubs/restaurants was extensive & extremely helpful. The Wheatsheaf pub which is in walking distance was delightful with tasty food. The best thing about our holiday was returning to the home from home cottage after a long day sightseeing.

“Loved Honeypot Cottage, it was as ...”

Loved Honeypot Cottage, it was as we expected from the very accurate photos. Ideally located for exploring the lakes. Warm cosy and everything you need for your holiday is provided. The Aga was easy to use and gives the kitchen a warm cosy feeling. As the weather closed in the wood burning fire in the living room gave the cottage that rustic warmth and smell. We walked to Sizergh castle which was a pleasant afternoon out. Beware that the cottage is situated on a steep hill which could become sloppy in winter. Would definitely stay here again, highly recommended - loved the cottage and the surrounding area.

We checked in late in the evening and woke to stunning views across the plains. Honey Pot is comfortable, well equipped and well positioned in Brigsteer. It is off the main road through the village and makes for a quiet stay. Hot shower, comfortable bed and super log burner in the cold November evenings. What a treat. One negative was the amount of light bulbs out of order. We counted six and couldn’t read in the lounge as too dark.

The cottage was absolutely lovely, very cozy and in a stunning area. We enjoyed some beautiful walks and there is nothing better to come home to than with the warm aga heating the house. Also the pub was great! Excellent food and friendly staff

The property

Honeypot Cottage, formerly the village Sunday school building, is an attractive stone-built cottage located on a hillside overlooking the charming village of Brigsteer in the Lake District National Park in Cumbria.

With lovely views from the elevated garden of the Lyth Valley, this cottage is perfect for a romantic escape or family holiday.

Upstairs in the cottage are two elegantly furnished bedrooms, one king-size bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a twin bedroom.

On the ground floor this property has a wet room with a walk-in shower, basin and WC.

Also on the ground floor is a cosy sitting room with a woodburning stove, a perfect country kitchen with AGA Range cooker and dining table.

Outside there are plenty of places to enjoy the garden with steps leading up to a lawned area and patio.

Just a short walk down the hill, (longer on the way back up!) takes you to the village centre where there is a super local pub serving excellent food and ales.

The ?auld grey town of Kendal?

is just 5 miles away and the tip of Lake Windermere is approx. 13 miles where you can visit the Aquarium of the Lakes or hop on board the Windermere Steamer and cruise up the lake to Bowness or Ambleside.

The great attraction of this lovely cottage is the excellent walking in the Southern Lakes, fantastic local pubs and lots of interesting villages such as Cartmel to visit.

An outstanding cottage, perfect at any time of the year.
