Great Family Retreat

We stayed here with our four 20-something children, their partners and our mothers to celebrate a few birthdays. The house is a great size for our group. Bedrooms very comfortable, bathrooms great and the kitchen a good space. The living room and dining room are also great sizes for large groups. If there was only one downside it would be that the house would benefit from a refreshen-up, but everything worked for us for our stay, and we would stay again!!

Beechmount is a comfortable spacious house in a quiet location.

We, 12 of us, 8 adults and 4 children, enjoyed our stay here. It has plenty of comfortable seating in the ground floor rooms and a very well-appointed kitchen with a wide range of utensils. The bedrooms are clean and spacious, the beds comfortable. There are several televisions in the house. The entry to the house looks daunting but the cars went through easily into a larger parking space beyond.

Christmas in the Lake District

This was a wonderful house in a wonderful location. Almost magical-views out every window, well stocked. A virtual rabbits warren of thick walled rooms well decorated and festive for the holidays. We only wish we could have stayed longer. Loved the walking paths outside and the playground across the street. Clean and comfortable.

Perfect Place

The house was exactly what we needed for a family gathering. The rooms were huge, the kitchen well equipped with fantastic appliances and the access to numerous TVs meant all ages were happy! Contact with Lois was always helpful and prompt. The location was perfect, with beautiful views all around. I’d definitely consider it again in the future, and recommend it to other large groups.

Fairytale Home!

We have raved about this house to so many people. It was beautiful and spacious and right near some amazing hikes. This area is breathtaking. Working with the host was very easy and they were very responsive. We highly recommend this home. If you don't have a rental car, make sure you come prepared with some food (as there is only 1 pub nearby, and it has unpredictable hours). We hope to return one day!

Mini Family Reunion

We had a get together with family who haven’t seen each other in several years. The house was perfect for us as it had plenty of space, lots of bedrooms/bathrooms, making it a very comfortable stay even with a large group. The communication with the property manager was great! She was responsive and very nice! I would recommend this house!

Fabulous property for a family gathering

We were 7 adults and 4 children (7-10 ages) and this house was so spacious, we never saw the children. There was a small park opposite too. The bedrooms were a good size with en suites. A lovely patio, a real sun trap and giant gas bar b q. Plenty of crockery and utensils. A second enormous fridge in utility room. We really did have a fabulous week.

Nice stay big house lovely ground good location, some issues

We had a good time in the house. It is very spacious, confortable overall and the grounds are lovely. It was very suited to our group with people of all ages and the location is great to visit the Lakes.Only downfall : the house needs TLC especially in some of the bathrooms.We also encountered problems including wifi and hot water system. But the property manager was reactive and did her best to solve them when possible.

Ideal place for a family getaway

Lovely country house in a beautiful location, perfect for all three generations of our family. Our favourite spaces were the handy playroom for the children and the huge comfy lounge where we settled in the evenings. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, the outside areas included plenty of space for the children to run around and a relaxing seating area for the adults to sit in the sun with a glass of wine, we were very lucky with the weather! The beds were clean and comfortable. The entrance to the car park is a little tight but we managed to get our large car in and out with no issues. We all enjoyed our stay immensely and would definitely revisit.

Amazing house in a beautiful location

We absolutely loved our stay in this fabulous and incredibly well-equipped home in the Lake District. Exploring it for the first time was like being in the book " The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" - a never ending house of rooms and doors, and when I found a wardrobe, I actually felt disappointed when I opened it and it didn't lead to Narnia! Still, we had the lovely Lakes and Hill Top right on the doorstep instead. The kitchen has everything you need and there are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. A short drive to Hawkhead, Grizedale and Ambleside, we could easily get everywhere. We would love to come back and stay again. Thank you for a lovely stay.

A beautiful home from home in a wonderful location

A beautiful house. Perfect for our annual family Christmas trip. Plenty of room to relax, lots of comfy seating in the cosy living room. The children loved the playroom. We had a couple of power cuts due to the bad weather but the host was in contact with us straight away to give us updates and the issue was fixed really quickly. We cooked a huge Christmas dinner in the spacious and fully equipped kitchen, and the dining room (complete with gorgeous, original stone floor) had a huge table big enough for us all to eat together. The bedrooms are beautifully decorated with huge comfy beds. It’s a perfect home from home in a great location, ideal for exploring the Lake District.

We had a lovely stay. The sat nav took us all different places so we had to navigate that in the dark but all good. Not sure if it’s worth adding what three words for future guests if that’s helpful. Parking was tight as we had 4 cars so had to park a couple of cars next to the park, but we managed. The property worked very well with a big family and the kids absolutely loved the playroom. We did have a slight problem with the hot water whicj we didn’t discover to later sat arvo. Lois was very active to respond and we had the handy man out early on Sunday morning. Wasn’t a simple fix so it wasn’t back running hot until we got back in on the Sunday arvo, neverless it was fixed when we were out.

We loved this house for our three generational family weekend. Lots of space, fabulously equipped kitchen, rooms all lovely, very homely feel. Toy room a hit with the kids as was the playpark opposite. Parking three big cars was a bit of a juggling act as entrance very narrow, but also small amount of parking opposite if needed. About 1 minute from Hill Top farm, 5 mins to Windermere, fab short walk to Moss Eccles Tarn for a swim was the favourite though. 5 mins to Coop for supplies if needed. Would love to come back again in the future. Thanks so much.

We had a great stay with extended family in this immaculate property over Easter. The place was phenomenal, beautifully presented, with bags of character. The garden was lovely, and the sitting room was super cosy with the open fire. Lots of games for the kids, too. We'd love to stay here again, it was a real find!
