Mountain Cottage

It was a pleasure to stay in this lovely cottage. Two toilets and showers/bathroom made it easier as there were 4 adults and a child. Cosy living room with the electric fire was a nice touch for the colder weather and the nice size dining table was great to sit and chat to those working in the kitchen. Location was great with lovely views from the gardens and easy walking distance to lake/pubs and convenience store. We had a great stay and would highly recommend.

This cottage and the whole setup is excellent. The quality of the finish and the location are lovely and we had a wonderful week away with the family( the games room is a bonus).This area of the Lake District has much to see and offer.

We had a fabulous stay, the area is stunning and the cottage is a 2 minute walk from pubs and shops which is ideal! The cottage itself is spotless and has nice added touches like the belvedere and the snug. Will was a great host as well and can't thank him enough for his help! We can't wait to get back soon

A very well equipped cottage for our growing family. Perfectly located for Coniston amenities and walks from the doorstep. Great to have the boys on the downstairs room and parents to be a little bit away from them. All the little outdoor areas and games were great for the boys - and got them out from under their parents feet too! We have always liked the Black Bull pub in Coniston (for food too) but can also recommend The Crown (sports on TV), The Sun & The Ship (off the beaten track - but nice to walk to from the cottage). Pizza's are great. Indian Restaurant is also very good. Don't expect a shopping metropolis in Consiton - you'll be disappointed. Its a simple village - with easy access to Ambleside (where the shopping is great) - and this means it doesn't attract the same large tourist group in the day, which makes it that little bit more peaceful than it's busier peers.

This is a gem of a cottage. A 5 minute walk to Coniston village and a 10 minute walk ( or longer depending on your chosen route) to Coniston Water. We enjoyed using all of the spaces at Mountain Cottage. The outside table was great for eating and taking in the stunning views. The kids enjoyed the boule and we all took turns to read in the reading room. The kitchen was well equipped and we all appreciated the second tv in the master bedroom! All of the bedrooms were comfortable. We loved the whole area and would highly recommend Mountain Cottage.

We loved our stay at Mountain Cottage. The owner could not have been more efficient or helpful before, during & after our holiday. The cottage itself is fantastic with great character. It is comfortable & well equipped although it does lack clothes hanging space in the main bedroom. We cooked meals at the cottage but did try the Fish & Chip shop in the village which we can highly recommend. Our only negative comment would be about the garden. Although beautiful & 'enclosed' we didn't feel confident to allow our dogs off lead. We always supervise but with the best will in the world we were worried that they might quickly push through at several points & drop directly down onto the busy main road below. Set in a beautiful location Mountain Cottage is an ideal base for both local & further afield walks.

On arrival we found the cottage clean and tidy and enjoyed looking around and exploring the outside space. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for our 5 night stay, the bathrooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The owner was very helpful from the point of booking the cottage right through to the end of the holiday when he kindly posted a wallet back to us that had been left behind. The parking is up a steep twisty hill but after a couple of trips out we soon got used to it. The cottage is old and quirky with quite a lot of steps, my parents both in their late eighties had to take care and be sure footed but managed to get through the holiday without tripping or falling over. Would I visit the cottage again? Of course I would, there

We had a terrific time at Mountain cottage. The location is perfect - a short stroll into the centre of Coniston - and the cottage is really lovely. Inside, it is smart, stylish and very comfortable; outside, the gardens are beautifully designed and impeccably maintained and there are so many little nooks and crannies to explore and different places to sit and watch the world go by. We particularly liked the heated 'Bus Stop' which is the perfect outside/inside place on a cool or rainy day. And, the Belvedere is a cosy retreat if you want some quiet time or just want to sit on the balcony with a glass of wine.
