“Excellent position overlooking the lake.”

Well equipped kitchen with all the little touches that a lot of places forget i.e tea towels, kitchen roll etc, Beautiful welcome hamper very nice.

- Mr Cooke, February 2020
“Beautiful high quality accommodation”

We stayed here over New Year. It is a beautiful property. Everything in it is of a really high quality. The bed was really comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. It was warm and cosy which was great to come back to after doing many of the walks right on your doorstep. Very relaxing to watch the moored boats floating outside the living room window or from the bedroom window. The bathroom was very stylish. We loved it here and would highly recommend it.

“This accommodation ticked all the boxes for us.”

It is a very stylish contemporary appartment. Everything in it is of a very high specification. It was really comfortable especially the bed. We stayed over New Year and it was lovely and cosy which was great to come back to after many of the lovely walks on the doorstep. The situation of the property is beautiful as it is right on Lake Windermere. We loved sitting in the living room or in bed watching the boats moored on the Lake drifting around. A real relaxing property.

- Mrs Stapleton, December 2019
“The property is really well equipped and the welcome pack of teas, ground coffee and locally made preserves, plus a bottle of fresh milk in the fridge, was an unexpected and welcome surprise.”

The views from the lounge and bedroom are beautifully restful and the property was very cosy, warm and comfortable.

Mitchell Wyke Bay

This lovely set of seven cottages rest in the village of Far Sawrey, close to Hawkshead and Bowness. Each wrapped in views of a beautiful lake; the scenery can be admired from the comfort of your holiday home, as you relax in style. Boasting open plan living areas, you can look forward to evening meals after the sun sets, or simply enjoy some quiet time with your loved ones. All cottages benefit from a well-equipped kitchen and a lovely seating arrangement, so you can socialise from morning through to evening, discussing your up and coming adventures. To be at one with the views, wander outside onto the balcony, perhaps with a refreshing drink to start the day off well. The beautiful bedrooms offer a peaceful sleeping environment, and a shower room completes the accommodation. If you are looking for extra space, or hoping to bring along additional guests, Lund Cottage has three bedrooms with en-suites, and a woodburner to enhance those cosy evenings. You are sure to be impressed wherever you choose to stay. There is something for everyone in this wonderful location with the village of Far Sawrey housing a pub/restaurant, and Bowness, with shops, restaurants and leisure facilities; just a short distance across the lake by ferry. Watersports are close at hand on Windermere, along with Lake Cruises and the majestic Wray Castle to admire. Of course plenty of walking opportunities are nearby, with an abundance of scenic attractions, for an all-round memorable getaway. An excellent group of cottages for a peaceful holiday experience.
