Eller Riggs Cottage

We had an excilent stay and definately we will go there again.

Extremely well organised place.

Beautiful, cosy cottage within a short stroll into town through stunning countryside.

The cottage was immaculate, with good WiFi, a powerful shower and a lovely welcome bottle of wine. Highly recommended.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful rural location with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and a superb shower.

The weather was beautiful and we managed to fit in some treks up the local hills. We would love to go back.

A great property.

Keith and Loretta were extremely responsive but never there when you want some space. A fabulous location on a hill looking over the Southern Lakes. I’d highly recommend this cottage

There was nothing which we were unhappy about: cottage was clean, bed was comfortable, the living room furniture was comfortable as well.

When we arrived we were asked if we wanted the room temperature increased which was, at out request, carried out.

We loved the cottage and beautiful area.

We would recommend this to our friends and family. As we regularly go to Cumbria we will differently be using this cottage again

Hosts were very friendly and made us feel very welcome.

Nothing was a bother to them and they went the extra mile regarding ice…….lovely cosy cottage with everything being of a high standard and very clean….we hope to come back soon to this lovely property…..best wishes to the hosts.

Last-minute short break for us but very glad we came across this cottage.

Set in a peaceful location and the cottage itself was very cosy with everything we needed. A bit odd not to have at least a small freezer (or freezer within the fridge) but not a huge issue if you're only there for a few days. Well-placed for the South Lakes.

Eller Riggs is situated in a beautiful rural setting.

It is a lovely cottage, well equipped and maintained. Plenty of off road parking for two cars. It has a modern kitchen and bathroom.

A lovely cottage which is very well equipped.

Friendly and helpful hosts

Lovely cottage in a great location for exploring the south lakes and even the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.

Very clean. Great modern bathroom, comfortable bedroom and helpful host. Only room for improvement in my opinion would be a slightly better equipped kitchen.

Yes, please only publish my first name, thank you.

Lovely relaxing cottage.

Shower was great and beds very comfortable. Great base for exploring the lakes.

A lovely cottage, beautifully done out.

Plenty of space and great views. Good base for exploring the area and nice and quiet without being too remote.

We had another lovely stay at Eller Riggs, a spacious, warm and comfortable cottage located in a great area.

Enjoyed our stay and a great location for exploring that part of Cumbria.

The cottage was spacious, clean and well maintained.

Delightful cottage.

Very warm! comfy beds and splendid shower A 3 night stay walking in the mountains and walks into Ulverston for a pint or two

Had a fantastic weekend stay here, spotlessly clean, well equipped with everything you need, beds were comfortable, lovely and peaceful location, host had left a much appreciated bottle of wine and came to say hello and welcome us to the cottage, a great place will definitely return,

We have just had a lovely relaxing week in this cottage.

It is in a lovely location, nice and clean, with all the facilities you need for a holiday. Thank you to the owners. We can’t wait to return.

Great place to stay, beautiful location and lovely hosts.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location.

It just suited us and we had a great holiday. Thanks.

A nice little cottage.

Good location. Walking distance to Ulverston town.

Beautiful location for a quiet time away from the City.

Lovely powerful and hot shower; and comfortable bed and sofas. Unfortunately, some things were clearly not cleaned since the last guests - the chopping boards though stowed away behind the microwave, still had bits of grated cheese and other food stuff on them; and the front of the toilet was dirty. Though only a minor thing, I would have preferred more toilet roll and a cloth to wipe the surfaces with than a welcome bottle of wine (though it was nice)!

Everything was brilliant

We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage.

It was so cosy and warm throughout our stay, and lovely to come back to after a day of walking. We really appreciated the welcome, and the fact that the owner was on site if there had been any problems

Had a really lovely stay at Eller Riggs.

Owner was very helpful & informative, and knowledgable of the surrounding area. The cottage was very comfortable and lacked for nothing. The tea, coffee and wine was a nice touch. Wifi was excellent. Kitchen was well equipped. Beds were so comfy, I could have stayed in mine all day, but had places to go and explore! I had to sleep upstairs as I had my disabled Mum with me. I found the spiral staircase a bit of a challenge at first as I have a fear of heights (didn't think of that when I booked!). After going up and down it a few times, clinging on for dear life which Mum found highly entertaining, I got used to it! I now want one at home..... The cottage is an ideal base to explore the Southern Lake District. I would highly recommend it. Thank you for a great stay!

Excellent base for exploring the lakes and peninsulas, lovely cottage, very comfortable beds.

The owners were lovely and the welcome bottle of wine was much need after a long drive with two kids. Plenty of things to do in the area as a family and some lovely beaches close by. Would definitely recommend and visit again

We had a lovely stay at Eller Riggs Cottage.

A well equipped accommodation in tranquil surroundings. Wonderful to wake to the sound of cows and sheep instead of traffic. Lovely friendly hosts offering advice on places to visit and a nice bottle of wine to welcome us to our holiday.

Nice quiet cottage just outside Ulverston with easy access into the town for all amenities.

Dedicated parking next to the cottage. Friendly welcome and made sure that we had everything we needed.

Very clever conversion, with a lot of thought, loved the 'wavy' edges on the ceiling Good quality fixtures, NEFF, Bosch, Sheridan, M&S and Dorma Comfi beds There was foil and clingfilm also caddy in the shower No reception at all for mobile phones, but WiFi OK in main living area Just a shame weather wasn't very kind

The cottage was lovely, spacious and surrounded by beautiful countryside.

It's location was good - a good base for Ulverston, the Lakes as well as the sea - Bardsea, Walney island etc The kind hosts were there if you needed them and we were very grateful for the milk and bottle of wine on arrival.

My wife and I have just spent a week in this country cottage.

It provides easy access to Lakes Windermere and Coniston, surrounded by the breath-taking countryside. We found the property to be reasonably clean and easy to operate. The furnishings were both comfortable and practical. The open plan living area with three windows provided an airy, well-lit space. The kitchen area had modern appliances, including a halogen hob, an efficient fan assisted oven, a small dishwasher and a washing machine. There was plenty of storage available and the fridge was of sufficient capacity for us. The bedroom was large enough although there was limited storage in drawers and wardrobes. The mattress was rather soft for our liking as were the pillows - it would have been good if there had been the option of having firmer ones. The bathroom was equipped with modern equipment with a particularly powerful shower. On our arrival there was milk in the fridge with coffee, tea and sugar available. Thank you for the gift of the bottle of wine. Although there were many positives with this accommodation, we found the amount of kitchen and household consumables rather disappointing. We always bring our own but we are used to being left with sufficient toilet rolls for our stay, together with kitchen roll, cling film, aluminium foil etc. Minor improvements would include a draining rack for washing up, a bath mat for use in the bathroom to prevent slipping, and some shelving for toiletries in the shower and by the sink. We did not make use of the dishwasher as there was insufficient glassware and some cutlery items to do so economically. Just three knives for a maximum capacity of four guests is clearly insufficient. There were areas of the property which would benefit from better cleaning - the blinds could be dusted and we found that the mattress protector was badly stained. The owners live next door and we met one of our hosts at the start and the end of our stay.

Absolutely fantastic stay!

The cottage is gorgeous and super clean. The table was laid and a bottle of Merlot led tour for us on arrival. The beds are really comfy, the only thing that let it down SLIGHTLY was that it was quite cold in the downstairs bedroom and the heating was locked so I couldn’t put it up at all. That being said I just popped some thicker PJs on and slept like a baby :) the shower is absolutely incredible. It will screech for a couple of seconds when you first turn it on but the water pressure is amazing!! Hosts are lovely too and only a stones throw away if you need any help with anything. Really looking forward to staying here again.

A lovely well appointed and spacious cottage for us 2 , very comfortable to stay in all day when the weather turns, no mobile (3) service but not an issue as the WiFi provided was faultless .

Beautiful little cottage with warm welcoming owners, our stay was relaxing quiet and peaceful and the views from the cottage were stunning, it felt like home from home with everything we needed already there, bed was very comfortable, amazing shower and loved the underfloor heating, was great to have a washing machine So I didn't have to bring back dirty washing.

Great location.

The key holders were very friendly and informative which helped tremendously as it was a short stay holiday.

Excellent stay and location.

The owners were very helpful and friendly.

The location was ideal great hosts and lovely cottage just what we were looking for.

Hopefully we will be back again.

We had lovely days out and the cottage was lovely.

Bed was very comfy and the shower is amazing. Hosts were friendly too.

We booked the Eller Riggs cottage for a short break to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary.

Every aspect of the visit was perfect. When we arrived, we were greeted with a lovely anniversary card and a bottle of bubbly. The cottage itself was stunning, finished to an exceptional standard with everything we needed. The location is perfect, just outside Ulverston, far enough out of town to feel remote but close enough for convenience. The scenery was breathtaking and we had amazing views from almost every window. Loretta and Keith live close by and could not do enough for us, Loretta was even kind enough to take some photos of us to treasure our visit. We will return to this gem of a location and cannot recommend it highly enough.

Beautiful little cottage, stunning views and lovely facilities.

The owners were so friendly and made us very welcome. A perfect break in a gorgeous part of the county

really helpful to have flat access throughout the main body of the building.

The cottage was absolutely fabulous, well situated for getting around the lakes, homely, comfortable,warm and clean.

Loretta popped in to give us some much needed advise on places to visit, would highly recommend

a lovely cosy, clean, comfortable cottage, we had a lovely week exploring the Lake District and coming back to this lovely property, situated perfectly for all our holiday needs .

Excellent location for chilling out and enjoying country walks with beautiful scenery

Tranquility & location of cottage.

Owners of cottage on-hand & very helpful.

We had a fantastic week at Eller Riggs.

Loretta was the perfect host and recommended some fantastic places to visit when she called to speak with us. Black Combe is definitely worth the climb for a 360 degree view of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The cottage was very cosy, comfortable and welcoming. It had everything we needed. The only slight disappointment was the shower cubicle. The shower itself was fantastic with hot and powerful water. However, the grout was grubby and could do with a little clean. It's a minor point and it didn't detract from our enjoyment. We would definitely recommend a visit.

This was a lovely cottage to stay in for a week.

Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and the most fantastic shower! Our view every morning was stunning, over looking fields of sheep and lambs. Perfect location for peace and quiet and only a short drive to Ulverston with all its shops and places to eat. We hope to return very soon!!

Great location, hospitable owners, amazing cottage.

But why do they ask to leave boots outside? Wet boots makes fo an awful day hiking. I suggest that the owners reconsider this policy.

We have just returned from spending a week at Eller Riggs Cottage.

The property itself was beautifully presented and had everything we needed. The bottle of wine, milk and tea and coffee were very much appreciated. There were plenty of books, games and videos on hand and lots of leaflets suggesting days out. The property is situated about a mile and a half outside Ulverston which had a good range of shops, cafes and pubs. We visited Barrow, Coniston and Grange and all were a short drive away. We had a lovely seven days relaxation enjoying the cottage inside and the beautiful views outside. Brilliant!

Wonderful stay in the perfect Lakeland setting.

Clean tidy and well equipped. Quiet spot with beautiful views morning and night. Great location for walks and just a few mins to Ulverston. Spacious and well laid out. My children had a great time and thought the cottage was just perfect. 10/10 from us, Thank you!

5 star accommodation quality furniture,fixtures and fittings throughout.

On site owners were delightful.Situation remote yet close to all the amenities of Ulverston.Perfect situation for discovering the southern lakes area. C&M Guanaria. Menorca.

Excellent location,top of the range facilities.

Friendly owners.

Owners very helpful, lovely surroundings, couldn't wish for better

The property is approximately two miles outside the market town of Ulverston in a quiet rural setting.

There is a lovely loft with two small beds with the main bedroom on the ground floor. The cottage is extremely comfortable and clean. I found my stay extremely relaxing and the proprietors were very kind and hospitable.

Loved the location of the cottage, away from the centre of town and amazing views from the cottage.

We went to have a getaway and we got exactly what we were looking for.

Very pleasant stay.
