The property

Located in the pretty hamlet of Rosthwaite, in the heart of the Borrowdale Valley, surrounded by stunning scenery and offering a great choice of walks of all grades leading directly from the village, whilst being just a fifteen minute drive to the popular market town of Keswick and only five minutes from the shores of Derwentwater.

Yew Tree Cottage Borrowdale is a charming traditional Lakeland farmhouse.

Park just outside the garden gate and step through the front door into the welcoming sitting room with dinning area.

Comfortable sofas are arranged in front of the cosy log burning stove and Smart TV and in the dining area there is a large family dinning table.

Traditional features can be found through out the property with low ceilings, oak beams, antique doors, slate floors and exposed stonework.

To the rear of the cottage is the fitted kitchen and to the side is the utility and boot room.

Also on the ground floor is the smart shower room.

The traditional Lakeland staircase leads to the first floor landing and the three bedrooms and family bathroom. To the front of the cottage is a pretty cottage garden with lawn and mature borders.

“A beautiful little cottage in the heart of Borrowdale.”

Perfectly located for many walks straight from your door such as Castle Crags and Watendlath. The cottage is very well equipped and comfortable and the boot room is great. Confortable beds and a separate shower room downstairs as well as full bathroom upstairs.Wehad a lovely welcome pack left for us. I would recommend the property without any hesitation.

“A really lovely cottage in a small village,the cottage is delightful, recently modernised and fitted out with care and attention.”

Very thoughtful welcome pack,even towels left for dog.Road from Keswick needs to be taken with care,burst a tyre on rough stone kerbing avoiding a pothole. Only thing we felt was missing from the cottage was an outside table and chairs,there is only a bench.

“Booking process was very easy with Sykes.”

I forgot to add the bed configuration on the booking so called to give this and the customer service lady couldn't have been more helpful. We had an amazing stay and felt very lucky to have secured 4 nights at a relatively late stage. Loved the welcome gifts. Cottage was very comfortable, beds were lovely (husband wants a new mattress at home now!), all very well equipped. The drying/boot room is an extremely handy space for storage. Great walks straight out of the door, very quiet at night apart from the owls. The garden is pretty dog secure as long as you have a dog that won't jump over an approx 4ft wall, we pulled the garden bench away from the wall so our hound wouldn't even consider it but if you have an escapologist for a dog then it might be a bit more tricky.

“Cottage is excellent.”

The communication with Lakelovers/Sykes was very poor. Failed to respond to 2 emails and don’t answer the phone. I would always choose another platform before them again.

“Fantastic little cottage, in a stunning location.”

Interior and cleanliness to a very high standard. Cottage situation in a quiet village, with local pub in walking distance. Lovely views and walks straightout the front door. A lovely hamper, milk etc already provided on arrival. Cant wait to return.

“This cottage is beautiful!”

Equipped with everything you need and decorated with a luxurious touch. The boot room is so useful for all of your walking kit- which is needed as there is so much beautiful walking to be done straight from the door! The welcome hamper was much appreciated and made for a lovely start to a perfect, cosy Christmas in the heart of Lakeland. Thank you!
