  • "Great property that allowed large family to get together in a wonderful location."

    Plenty of free entertainment for the kids, watching the farmer herding his sheep. Will recommend to friends.

    Thank you very much for the lovely feedback, Helen & Allan Property Owner

  • "The property is ideally set up for a large family or group gathering."

    The house is in good order, nicely decorated and well furnished. The kitchen is particularly well equipped with more than enough cookware, serving dishes, crockery and cutlery. The bedrooms are a good size and very comfortable. We particularly appreciated that most of the rooms had an en-suite. The hot tub was great fun, especially after a walk. Any queries we had both prior to and during our stay were promptly answered. We will undoubtedly be back.

    Thank you very much for the great feedback we do appreciate it, Helen & Allan Property Owner

    Bathrooms had very slight smell of damp or mould. Otherwise faultless.

    Thank you for the review, We have checked all the bathrooms we have had a very damp warm late summer this year, it was more likely to be damp towels as the heating wasn't coming on due to the very warm damp weather we had when you stayed.

  • "This accommodation was used for an extended family holiday with 6 adults and two children + a Spaniel."

    Fortunately the weather was better than forecast and plenty of opportunity for walking and climbing from the house. Mountain biking facilities in nearby Grizedale Forest and boating in Coniston Water. The house however is so comfortable and well equipped that poor weather would have been bearable. The hot tub is first class and was very popular. At the risk of blocking our own plans to rebook we would highly recommend Browside as a holiday venue for up to 14 people in a rural setting with plenty of off road parking.

  • "Our second visit with two more small Grandchildren this time."

    We were greeted by Helen the owner on arrival who was happy to help with anything if needed. The house is lovely and ideal for a family of mixed generations. So much room for everyone to relax and enjoy the holiday and beautiful surroundings. Such a well equipped and very clean property too with everything you could possibly need. Cross the road and there is a footpath with a pleasant half a mile walk to the lovely pub at Torver. We had a lovely week despite some rather damp weather but then it is the Lake District so just come prepared for four seasons in one day. We would highly recommend the property and would love to come back. Thank you Helen.

    Thank you very much for the kind and helpful review and credit to you and your family for leaving the cottage so clean on departure you made our day much easier. Thank you Helen & Allan Property Owner

    Could of done with being cleaned properly before our arrival. Beds were uncomfortable. Would of been nice to control the hot tub temperature ourselves.

    Jason I am absolutely flabbergasted with this review, the house was thoroughly cleaned by my two local cleaners who take a lot of pride in their work, They spent all day cleaning as they do every Friday I can only apologize if they missed something. I wish you had mentioned it during your stay then any problems could be rectified straight away. I spoke with you to ask if the hot tub temperature was OK as you stayed in a heatwave and we turned up the temperature at your request our other cottage guests wanted theirs turned down. The beds are all different to suit all needs, and previous guests have commented on how comfy they are, as you didn't fill the house maybe it would have be worth trying all the beds to find one to suit your needs. You are welcome to give me a call to discuss your problems I will try and get in touch to find out what has upset you so much to leave such a review , Sorry Helen. update- The house has had another spring clean just in case with all the beds pulled out we do ask future guests please just send us a text if we have missed a cobweb there is really no need for a hurtful review we do try very hard to please our guests.

    We had several enjoyable local walks. We were a bit surprised that we had to strip the beds etc as we were not aware of this as a contractual obligation. This niggle aside we had a lovely time.

    I can assure you and future guests you didn't have to strip the beds. Many guests choose to strip the beds which is a great help for us but certainly not obligatory .

    Which were all comfortable and spotless. It is in a lovely situation with beautiful views. The lounge was fine for 8 but would be crowded with 14. The sofas are very large and too wide in the seat to be comfortable and one of them sags badly. Would suggest some smaller sofas and one or two more chairs.. The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of crockery, glassware and pans etc but the kitchen knives need sharpening or a knife sharpener provided.

The walk to Coniston was around the 5k mark going along the lake side and full of things to see. Paddling in the lake was very popular.

  • "Bit of a mixed stay."

    Some good stuff, quite a bit disappointing stuff too. I won’t write too extensively, but here are the highlights of what I would have wanted to know before booking (or if I had already booked what was coming). The good: - location is great and the views are amazing - the hot tub is lovely and clean/modern and is well maintained - big fridge and freezer The less good: - very poorly stocked. Not even sugar and tea. Literally you will have to bring or buy everything you need. It’s quite frustrating and not what I expect or have experienced from other holiday houses in this price bracket. - the knives are blunt, and the pots are old and food sticks to it. Bring your own (add it to the list of your own stuff you need to bring). - the owner/manager lives next door and you have virtually no privacy. We had 6 people plus a baby staying for the week and needed a bigger place cos my brother and his family (2 adults 2 kids) came for the weekend. Total 11 people in a house advertised for 14. We also on the Saturday had a friend staying in the area (2 adults, 1 kid) and invited them for lunch. Had the owner come to us and say the house is only for 14 people and we aren’t allowed to have more and also that we only booked for 11 people. Didn’t seem to believe us when we explained that we were the usual people and had a couple and their kid over for lunch. This is indicative of always feeling like we were being watched. Not terribly relaxing. - damp smell in one of the rooms and we had to move out of that room and close the door. We had the extra room to be able to do so, but if we didn’t, it would have been a problem.

    I am very sorry Browside didn't meet your expectations, we do always try to help guests when needed, for future guests we see you at check in and then only if there is a problem or maintenance on the property including maintaining the hot tubs. We have sharpened the knifes and checked the nonstick pans that are still in the cottage. I am sorry you missed them we leave them in the pan drawer under the hob. I agree bank holiday weeks in the school holidays are more expensive than in school dates. Due to Covid-19 we were asked to take shared condiments out of the property. We are pleased you enjoyed some aspects of your stay and try to improve the negative aspects Thank you Helen & Allan Property Owner

For watersports enthusiasts, the quiet lake is ideal for dinghy sailing and canoeing, whilst the less active can enjoy a leisure cruise on the beautiful steam yacht 'Gondola’, or visit Brantwood, the former home of John Ruskin. Nearby attractions include the award-winning village of Hawkshead, home of the Beatrix Potter Gallery, Tarn Hows, one of the most visited beauty spots in the country and Esthwaite Water, famous for its fishing. A first class holiday location at any time of the year.
