We stayed in apartment 2 and it was super. Well equipped, comfortable and cosy. 2 good sized bedrooms, one with an ensuite and also a main bathroom, both nice and modern. Kitchen good too, microwave, oven and dishwasher. Great view of the Old Man of Coniston from the front and only a 10 minute walk to the village. Friendly and welcoming hosts and we had a couple of their cooked breakfasts, to be recommended!

Took our two dogs with us, they provided them with a little gift which was a nice touch food was lovely staff where friendly. Not in your mainstream part of the lakes but it is very near coniston lake which you can do plenty of activities on pub over the road & plenty of walks, the village a 10 minute walk. Would stay again.

My daughter and I had a lovely stay here for four nights a few days ago. The hosts Michael and Tracy are super friendly and obliging, and went over and beyond to help my daughter get the internet when she was having problems. The rooms are very clean with everything you might need, and the breakfasts are really lovely. The property is ideally situated for both the town of Coniston and easy access to the lake's water activities centre. All in all an excellent stay and we hope to return in the near future.
