Lovely cosy cottage. Had everything we needed.Very clean. Well kept garden. Easy walk to shops and restaurants.

Felicity

This Cottage is really comfortable and nice, we would stay again. Its stone floors meant it was cool on a hot day which was excellent! The garden is very pretty and perfect for sitting outside.

A lovely cottage, comfortable and clean. Great location, close to the bus route to get around but also walkable distance to bowness. Secure enclosed garden. Perfet size for two adults two children and our puppy.

Lovely cottage that is well furnished, equipped and maintained. It was ideal for my carfree holiday, with Windermere train station an easy walk and plenty of buses to get around.

We had a lovely stay at Brook Cottage and it was a great base for our holiday. The beds were very comfortable and the cottage itself was very well equipped and dog friendly. Windermere has everything you might need and is within easy walking distance transport links are excellent to other parts of the Lake District. The owners were very responsive when we had a query.

Nice property in great location for visiting Windemere

From the moment we entered the cottage we fell in love with the place. There is a lovely cosy, comfortable feeling which welcomes you in and as we explored, always an exciting part of a holiday, it became apparent that the owners had thought of everything we might need. All that combined with its ideal location means well definitely be back.

Great cosy cottage and had everything we needed. My toddler loved playing in the little garden and we enjoyed sitting outside. Perfect location for the local shop and restaurants.

Fantastic cosy cottage in the heart of Windermere. Lovely garden and everything you could need for a short break. Very close to Windermere village and a short walk to Bowness. Looking forward to a return visit sometime in the future.

Nicola

Brook Cottage was a gorgeous base for us to explore the lakes,having never been before. It was well equipped with everything you could wish for,even a bottle of fizz was waiting to greet us

Beautiful comfy cosy cottage in an ideal location to walk into both Windermere and Bowness plus also to drive round and see the rest of the Lake District fantastic scenery. Ideal property, and with enclosed garden, for taking a dog to. Property was exactly as it said in the listing.

Clean, tidy and well equipped cottage. Convenient location. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you

Rachael

Amazing cottage, and only a short walk from Windermere high street. Owners really accommodating and supportive when gas works had to be done during our stay. Very cosy and clean, thank you

Lovely warm cottage and bed so comfortable excellent bathroom nothing wrong with anything

Aimee Jo

A wonderful stay in a cosy, warm, welcoming cottage in the heart of the Lakes, a long with a lovely welcome package and a bottle of prosecco upon arrival. The owners have clearly thought of all of the finer details to make each guests stay as comfortable and homely as possible. The garden was a delight for our dog, from previous stays in the Lakes at other properties we have found it difficult to find a house so close to Windermere with a garden. The owners communication throughout our stay was impeccable, no faults! We will be returning to Brook Cottage for sure.

Patricia

Had a fabulous week in Brook Cottage, we struggled to find it initially but a quick phone call to Iain and he guided us directly to it, he kept in touch to make sure everything was ok for us. Would wholly recommend the cottage for location and amenities nearby. Ten out of ten.

Rebekah

Fantastic property, enclosed garden and cottage were both well maintained and we appreciated the teacoffee, washing consumables that were left for us at the property. It was a perfect base to explore the Lake District, plus short and easy walk into town where there is a coop and Sainsburys. Pillows werent firm enough for us so we used cushions and the rugs in the bedrooms were slippy against the wooden flooring so tucked them under the beds. Overall, one of the best properties we have stayed in. Would definitely return.

Stephen

A warning. This property is not dog friendly. If you leave any dog hairs visible to the naked eye, you will be charged for a deep clean by the owners. The same with any wear and tear living on any piece of furniture. Rather than just being cleaned by hand, it will be deemed necessary to strip off all the covers and sent away at great cost to you. If you rent out a dog friendly property, when you go out walking every day in the rain on some days you can't expect it to be pristine after a week in the Lake District. A shame really as it is a nice cottage. Just owners who have unrealistic ideas of renting a property!

Cecile

Lovely cosy cottage, cute and well tended little garden. Both bedrooms are spacious. Even on a very wet week, the cottage felt very confortable. Its well located with shops and restaurants nearby. The pub just down the road is great. There is a short walk to Brant Fell with amazing views of the lake.

Katherine

A cosy, cute cottage, but well equipped with everything you need. Perfect for our small family & little pooch. Garden is secure and well maintained so safe for our dog. Perfect location for local walks, with shops & food places in Windemere only 5 mins away & Bowness within 15 mins. A lovely stay in The Lakes.

Very comfortable cottage, very cosy, very pretty. We spent a wonderful week there. From the garden a bubbling beck can be heard. It's marvellous.

Your cottage is beautiful it gives you home from home feeling. It is clean, comfy and has everything you need for a stay. It is well situated for all the amenities. The garden is a little gem. The property and garden did not disappoint.

We have just had a lovely three night break to Brook Cottage which we both enjoyed and would not hesitate to go back if we could get the same last minute break at a good price. There was plenty of space for us both and the dog but four adults may find space a bit tight. Fine for a family of four with two young children. There was a couple of small maintenance problems and no off road parking which it states there is in the prospectus for the cottage. Although a little welcome pack with essentials in would have been nice it was a clean cottage with everything you could need, tucked away from the main areas of Windermere, for a good break.

Wow what a fabulous cottage, beautiful location, comfy, very clean and tidy, lovely garden. Highly recommend property 1010. 10 minutes walk to Windermere town and about 15 Minute walk to the Lake, shops and restaurants. There is a pub just opposite with outdoor seating.

Edward

Very well situated cottage with both Windermere and Bowness within walking distance. Pretty well equipped cottage for all you would need during your holiday. Will come back.
