“Great location looking out onto the lake.”

Booking and payment went smoothly as always - that’s why I have been using Sykes for years! Thank you :)

“The most amazing views of any holiday cottage/apartment I have stayed at in the UK.”

All possible facilities that were needed available. Apartment very clean and presented in a lovely way. Extremely helpful and friendly hosts. Great location for exploring the Lake plus the most wonderful weather I have ever experienced in the Lake District. Offers the complete package what more could be asked for.

“The crockery & glassware was very sparce.”

No teaplates & no pint glasses. If 4 people stayed there they would have to use the dishwasher after every meal. However, the stunning views from the apartment made up for this.
Mr Metcalfe June 2018

“The accommodation was comfortable and had wonderful views from each of the windows.”

the only negative was the low ceilings (being up in the attic conversion). This was very evident in the bathroom where it wasn't possible to stand at the toilet because the roof sloped so much.... Heads were banged throughout the stay. The owners who lived downstairs were excellent hosts and provided lots of useful information and we were pleasantly surprised to find provisions such as teabags, milk etc, all in all we were very pleased with our choice. The location was just right, and if the Windermere ferry had been running it would have been easier to get around the lake.

“The view was amazing and the apartment was perfect!”

So relaxing we didn’t want to leave.
Mr Fullerton April 2018

“Fabulous location and well appointed - great host.”

Very cosy despite the weather!
Mr Johnson July 2017

“A very warm and helpful welcome from the owner.”

Always willing to help if required. A very restful and quiet location with beautiful views. Would love to return in the future.

“Excellent accommodation, amazing views”

We stayed at Esthwaite Mews over the May half term. As a family of four with two teenage daughters the accommodation suited us perfectly. Two ensuite rooms with a living area and well equipped kitchen. The views from all three rooms were beyond belief. The pictures we had seen barely did them justice. The rooms were comfortable and the apartment contained everything we needed for a week's stay, including a great collection of local information. I have to admit, you do have to be a bit careful not to bang your head on the sloped ceilings, but that was a minor inconvenience for such a great place. Vernon and Penny, who own the place and live downstairs were pleasant and helpful at all times. There was so much to do nearby that we were spoiled for choice. We all highly recommend this holiday rental, we couldn't have asked for more.

Little Ees Wyke Cottages

These two wonderful cottages are situated within walking distance from the shore of Esthwaite Water, in a peaceful location, next to the owners’ home, in the tiny hamlet of Near Sawrey, in the Lake District National Park. These two holiday homes consist of a first floor apartment sleeping four and a cosy ground floor cottage sleeping two, meaning six people can be accommodated, making them a perfect base for families or friends wishing to spend time together in one of the most beautiful parts of the Lake District – a real gem in an already beautiful crown! These quality holiday homes have been lovingly designed to make the most of the delightful surroundings and each are furnished and decorated to an exceptional standard. Enjoying a slightly elevated position, both cottages have views down the fields to Esthwaite Water and guests can wonder down to the water’s edge, which is just a couple of minutes walk away, from where you can observe the local wildlife or possibly enjoy fishing for pike and trout. Both cottages offer private patio areas, as well as access to a shared garden where you can relax with a good book, whilst taking in the views of the lake. Why not take some time and amble into Near Sawrey to explore Hill Top, the home of Beatrix Potter, and see the actual garden where Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny nibbled on Mr McGregor’s lettuces? There is also an excellent pub serving delicious food, plus of course, less than 2 miles away is the most charming Lakeland village of Hawkshead, with its cobbled yards and traditional houses. For a more action packed day, the Grizedale Forest offers beautiful walks and cycle ways and has a tree top adventure course too, or why not take the ferry across Lake Windermere and explore the popular town of Bowness on Windermere with its colourful mix of shops and restaurants? Although once you arrive at these excellent cottages you may just be inclined to sit back and relax!

About the location

SAWREY

Hawkshead 2 miles.

The village of Sawrey is situated two miles from Hawkshead down the eastern side of Esthwaite Water, overlooked by the woods and tarns of Claife Heights. Sawrey consists of two separate hamlets - Near Sawrey and Far Sawrey - both with a cluster of picturesque cottages, tea rooms and pubs. Near Sawrey is famous for Hill Top, the 17th century farmhouse where Beatrix Potter wrote her acclaimed children's stories. Now a museum, owned and run by the National Trust, Hill Top is one of the most visited houses in the Lake District. Far Sawrey is the hamlet furthest away from Hawkshead and the nearest to the ferry point on Windermere. It offers a church and pub/restaurant with a beer garden. There are good walks in the area, including those to Claife Heights and in Grizedale Forest. It's also a great base for enjoying a wide variety of typical Lakeland pursuits - with watersports close at hand on Lake Windermere, fishing on nearby Esthwaite Water and, of course, fell walking.
