Seven beautiful Lakeland cottages
We are a small family run cottage letting business in Central Lakeland. Our seven traditional cottages are in Langdale (Chapel Stile), Grasmere, Ambleside and Coniston. They are all in prime locations with open fires, unlimited WiFi and inclusive of reasonable usage gas/electricity.
We directly manage six of the cottages ourselves and the seventh (Bank View, Chapel Stile) is handled through a local letting agency. Because we only advertise properties which we own ourselves, we pride ourselves on our attention to detail and personal service and we regularly receive accolades from satisfied customers many of whom (more than 60% in a typical year) are repeat visitors.
What’s included and What’s not
Unlimited WiFi broadband, gas/electricity and coal (reasonable usage) along with an initial supply of kindling and firelighters are included in all of our cottages, as are all bedding/bed linen and tea towels. Bath and hand towels are not provided. See below for gas and electricity.
A cot and high chair can be provided. We make a charge of £10 for each (but we do not provide cot bedding).
Bath and hand towels
We do not normally provide bath and hand towels but can do so, if required, subject to an additional charge of £4 per person.
Gas, electricity and coal
Gas and electricity is included within the tariff. Coal is provided free of charge for normal use. With the recent high cost of energy we would expect customers to be considerate about not leaving heating on for excessive lengths of time.
Landline telephone
There is no longer any land line telephone available for the convenience of our visitors in any of our cottages. Unfortunately from February 2025 onwards our broadband provider ceased this service offering.
Dogs
Dogs are welcome (usually a maximum of two) in all of our cottages subject to our usual conditions – guaranteed house clean, confined to the ground floor and not allowed on the furniture. We make a charge of £10 per dog.
Directions and access
Directions and all necessary arrival information will be e-mailed or posted to you shortly before the start of your stay. There is a key safe outside the front door of all our cottages and the key safe combination will be included in the arrival information.
Smoking
As in almost all holiday homes smoking and vaping is not permitted in any of our cottages.
