We were recommended this site due to the standard of the cottages and location, it did not disappoint. We stayed in the 3 bed dog friendly cottage, we don’t have a dog but it was the only one available for our last minute New Year trip. It was clean, had everything we needed and felt like home away from home. The site staff are friendly and helpful and we can’t wait to book again!

We booked this cottage as a last minute new year break. The booking process and check in information was all really clear and easy. The cottage was immaculate throughout, nice and warm when we arrived and really well equipped, which was perfect for us as we had our 5 year old daughter with us too. Great location, an all round excellent place to stay. Would highly recommend.

Lovely cottage done to a high standard right on Windermere! Boweness is our favourite place and location was just perfect. Lovely gifts for our pooches on arrival which was so kind. Can’t wait to re book and visit again in the summer!

Just spent New Year at the Blakeholme bay view lodge. Check in easy and good to see the lodge was preheated for our arrival. Lodge was spotless and comfortable for a 3 night break. Stunning views of Windermere from the outside deck. Everything you need is included, tea, coffee and milk. Even had the dishwasher tablets. Kitchen has all the utensils you need and there’s shower gel and hard wash in the bathroom. Peaceful site that is dog friendly Would recommend this site for a peaceful break in the lakes and only a few miles south of Bowness and all its amenities

We booked the Cragholme apartment for our Christmas break with family. The location and views of the lake are excellent, the site is beautiful. However the apartment didn’t appear to be clean, dog hair and dust all over the floors, doors, skirting boards and in the bath which we discovered after filling up the bath and there being clumps or dust and hair in the water. Dust on light fittings and soap dispensers in bathrooms, no mattress protector on the beds and a stale smell when you walked in the door. We had our 3 year old daughter with us so we had to go out to buy cleaning materials to clean before we could let her play on the floor. There was a hoover on site so we hoovered the apartment as soon as we got there. Such a shame as everything else is perfect, the apartment has all the facilities you need and the decor is nice.

This is a must visit! Right on the waterfront of lake Windermere scenery is breathtaking and unbeatable. We fed the swans and ducks which my daughter loved! It's a short drive to the beautiful town of Windermere and very friendly staff. Comfortable bed and soft bedding gave me a great night sleep. Super clean and feels like a home away from home. Our new favourite stay in the lake District , Thank you!

What an experience of sheer luxury. This is a unique property, literally in the water of Lake Windermere, and is on another level. The views are stunning, as is the standard of decor. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to experience something unique.

My husband and I treated ourselves to a very mini break at Hill of Oaks. We wanted to be on the lake shore and also wanted to take our dog. To meet both of those requirements left us with one choice - the accessible glamping pod - Claife Heights. It looked perfect and we weren't disappointed. Pre arrival information was comprehensive and we received a warm welcome. It was lovely to be able to let ourselves in (I always think that adds to a sense of ownership - albeit for 48 hours!) and we were delighted by how warm and cosy the pod was. And there were gifts for both us and our dog too! After a short walk in the woods opposite and a quick dip we had a bbq on the deck on the first night. The next day, having woken to the sound of the ducks and the lake lapping on the shore we cooked breakfast, stocked up on dinner at the shop and then drove off to walk the new Windemere Way. Sadly it was pouring and didn't stop but hey, what do you expect in November! Looking forward to returning when we can benefit from the stunning views when the days begin to lengthen again.
