  • "We had a lovely stay at Tether's End."

    The location is beautiful and the cottage is really well equipped with everything you need. The kids had a super fun time with the farm animals nearby. There’s also plenty to do within a short drive or walk. All the shops and supermarkets are close to the cottage, and parking right by the entrance was a big plus. My only suggestions would be to add blinds, mats to bathroom and a hair dryer. 100% recommend this cottage — we’d love to come back.

  • "The description of Tethers End is not quite what you get."

    It’s just an apartment really; there is no downstairs. This being said, the accommodation was lovely, with a great kitchen. The dining room was very dark, but we used it anyway. The owner left lovely treats like wine, crisps and biscuits, which was lovely. We had no cafetière to use the ground coffee that was also left, so we bought one and left it there for others to use. The views from the balcony were lovely. We saw deer, ducks, chickens and a barn owl most days flying past. It was so peaceful. Our dogs enjoyed the garden, but we did not let them off as it’s not totally enclosed. I would recommend Tethers End. We had a lovely stay.

  • "This is a flat rather than a cottage as the ground floor is a work in progress to make another flat."

    This is not a problem as the views and location are great. Lovely high balcony to watch the evening sun, owls hunting in the meadow and the hens from next doors farm. About a 30 minute walk to Bowness if tou cut across the fields and less than a fiver in an uber if you prefer. The facilities are all great and good standard but we have to say the shower is a bit on the small side. This wouldn't stop us coming back as we enjoyed the peace and quiet and the place in general.

    Quite, stunning surroundings bombing with wildlife. Big garden for the dog to wonder, children to play and me to sunbathe. Plenty to do in the area for any type of family.

  • "Great place."

    Well appointed. Newly renovated. Great location in wilderness but close to town. Beautiful balcony to enjoy the sunrise over the fields with views of sheep and chickens. Theres a beautiful walk right behind the house which is worth it. Would stay again. 5 stars.

  • "Had a lovely relaxing week at Tethers End."

    Secluded yet only 10 minutes from Bowness. Very comfortable accommodation, with fully equipped kitchen and great TV and WiFi. Lots of quiet safe walks for the dogs and plenty of eateries within a short drive. A perfect base to chill out or explore the Lakes. Thanks for the welcome goodies on arrival.
