Excellent accomodation near to Windermere and Bowness. Photos were accurate. Someone has already mentioned the stairs to the second floor being steep and needing care, not suitable for those with mobility issues . Parking outside was easy. The garden wasn't used due to the cold ( but sunny) weather in November. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Steve

Kelly

Fabulous property. Very well equipped and cosy. Perfect location for strolling into Windermere and easy access to everything the area has to offer. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will book again

Fantastiic Cottage Great base for us and our friends from Czech Republic

Excellent cottage. Pity the weather prevented us from using superb outdoor facilities. Stairs to top floor not great for elderly. But a wonderful cottage.

Joanna

This is a charming cottage, very warm and cosy, there is plenty of space for 5 adults. The parking although on the road was never a problem. The location is excellent, it's within easy walking distance of Windermere and Bowness. Thank you.

Wonderful house - we felt as if we had been welcomed in to someone's lovely comfortable home, such was the quality of the fixtures and fittings, and the atmosphere. All of us settled in and relaxed quickly, and - importantly - all of us slept very well (unusually).

This cottage is lovely, stayed with family, great to walk into Windermere 5 mins turning left out of the door or Bowness around 15/20 min stroll so you can leave the car. Parking on the street, we always found a place. Well equipped, good facilities & just loved the garden

We enjoyed a lovely stay at Brookside cottage. Set next to the beautiful beck (which had already won us over when we booked), nothing disappointed, even the weather was kind to us. The cottage is ideally located within easy reach of Windermere and Bowness, and a short drive to lots picturesque walks and local attractions. A memorable family holiday, we will certainly aim to return one day!
