"We enjoyed our stay."
Lovely cottage. Very quiet and peaceful. Lovely modern kitchen and down stairs shower room. Front room a bit dark but lovely views.nice furniture. Tv only via apps. Like bbc iplayer. Nice seating area off the kitchen for three people. Comfortable beds. Curtains bit light. Would take slippers or warm socks as has hard floors. Parking is on a slopped drive quite tight. We were lucky with weather. Near the lake, had to walk along a busy road to other side of lake for boats and train trips. (Swan pub more of a hotel and spa) Loved the boat trip. Loved the scenery. Enjoyed.

"We had a lovely 3 days exploring the Lake District and Prospect Cottage was a fabulous base for us; it was our 1st trip to the Lakes in many, many years!"
The cottage was very comfortable and very well presented. Many thanks to the owners for sharing this little gem!

"Fantactic stay in the cottage, very clean, really cosy, warm and peaceful, exactly what was needed!"
I would definitely come again and I would definitely recommend to others.
Two negatives,
I thought the water pressure on the shower was very poor.
Also the booking had a check out time of 10am so why did the cleaning lady turn up as we were leaving and and asked us why we were still there at 10am, she thought the time was 9.30pm? The lady was rather rude we all thought, she needs to be made aware of any bookings and check out times.
Apart from that everything was amazing really loved the weekend away!

"House in a great location."
Beds very comfortable. Bedding lovely. Bathrooms clean. Nice to have 2 sitting areas with TVs. Do not feel photos on website showed true appearance of property, in need of tlc and updating e.g wall paper peeling in several areas, kitchen heavily worn and utensils /cutlery/plates/ glasses in need of replacement (plates worn, cultery didn't match, didn't have a full set of glasses...). Water pressure poor and shower underwhelming, toilets didn't flush properly if another source of water being used. Fridge was smelly and house not cleaned to satisfactory standard (work surfaces dirty , cultery draw not clean. House dusty and dust in alot of corners) . Bin outside was overspilling on arrival and attracted lots of flies. House has alot of potential, some lovely qualities but as above we were disappointed about several aspects.

"A lovely little cottage with a fabulous view towards the southernmost tip of lake Windermere."
The tiny front garden provides a wonderful spot to sit and watch the sun go down. The cottage is in a quiet hamlet and it is possible to go on walks straight from the door. Other well trodden walks and attractions are not far away. The cottage is very cosy, with everything you need, and has a plentiful supply of hot water for those after hike soaks in the bath with a view. It’s fabulous as a base from which to explore, if you like to be a little bit removed from the summer madness of Windermere town etc.
It would perhaps be nice to have a table and chairs at the front big enough for everyone to sit around as we would have liked to eat outside, but we still had a wonderful time.

"Really lovely cottage on a very quiet lane with pleasant views over the valley with hill behind and a glimpse of Lake Windermere in the distance."
It was really nice to sit out on the bench in the front garden in the evening with a cup of tea / glass of wine. A good location for exploring the area but with good walks from the doorstep too. Walking distance (15 mins) to the Swan at Newby Bridge, would also recommend the the delightful Masons Arms at Strawberry Bank though quite a bit further.

"Well decorated cottage!"
It was very stylish, and the views from the window having a bath is amazing.
The cottage had everything we needed for our stay with a good sized kitchen to cook our meals.
Would love to come stay there again some time in the future.

"Charming, cosy and clean cottage in a fantastic location."
Only a 10min walk to the Swan which served great food! The views from the front of the house were magical. Didn’t realise how close it was to lake Windermere and main roads for travelling.

"Gorgeous cottage and much bigger than expected."
We didn't want to leave! Everyone who came to visit said how great the house is. Good walks up in the hills behind on a gravel track - ideal for us as we're not fully equipped fell walkers, and a great view at the top. We would definitely stay here again.

It has space and its facilities (heating, Internet...) work well. The location is also great, we were able to start walks from the cottage.
Gill was a fantastic host. She made sure everything was working, replied quickly and even allowed for a later checkout.
We really enjoyed our stay.

"Excellent cottage in beautiful tranquil surroundings."
Would highly recommend it. Only issue with the cottage was that the shower pressure is a little on the low side. Maybe worth considering a change to a power shower if possible but that is our only criticism. Apart from that, it was a perfect little home from home.
