Leave ReviewA really lovely week
By Ali on 21-Feb-2025Our family has enjoyed a really lovely week in Lynwood Cottage which has been the perfect base from which to explore the local area. The house is incredibly well equipped, very cosy and has felt like a home-from-home. Our two young sons have enjoyed playing with the farm animals whilst the adults have enjoyed puzzles by the fire. The kindling pile is very impressive and worthy of mention! Some of thr highlights of our trip have included the steam train, the Beatrix Potter museum, a lake cruise and Grizedale. We’d not hesitate to book again and explore more of this area.
Wonderful
By Claire on 09-Aug-2024We’ve had a wonderful stay at Lynwood Cottage. Great location to explore the fabulous scenery. We enjoyed several big walks - Old Man of Coniston, Scafell Pike - quite the climb but well worth it for the views, Fell Foot and exploring the Coppermines. The fire was a welcome treat after several wet, cold days and the entertainment of puzzles and toys kept us thoroughly entertained. My daughter LOVED the farm set. We also enjoyed exploring the local National Trust places espevially Hill Top and Sizergh. Thanks again for such a wonderful, comfortable stay with such nice home comforts and plenty of entertainment for those wet days.
Great

Lovely bank holiday weekend
By Ginny and Darren on 01-Apr-2024A lovely bank holiday weekend spent here with friends! The cottage is beautifully appointed with everything we needed. Plus it was super cosy with the fire on when it got chilly. Fabulous trip to Bowness, Ulverston, Windermere, Kendal and Wensleydale - yes we packed it all in! Sorry to be leaving today but hope to be back again this year
Great Cottage
By Paul on 06-Nov-2023Great cottage with everything you need.nice local walks and a short drive to windermere. Nice wood stove and enough wood for your stay ( we were out all day so just had it on in evening ) Well kitted out kitchen. read the folder provided by vendor as its very informative of local walks etc. Would definitely stay again.
Cosy Cottage
By Valerie on 21-Aug-2023A lovely cosy cottage, so well equipped, its really easy to find once you get to backbarrow, there is a steam train ride up the road in hetherswaite. Its about half hour to windermere and from there the other beautiful villages around the lake. There is a really good folder at the cottage with lots of information about walks and places of interest. There is a very small shop/petrol station/Greg''s few miles away for essentials.
