Is Cleabarrow Cottage Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families
Children have space to play in the landscaped terraced gardens. The separate snug provides a television room away from adult spaces. Six bathrooms mean no queuing. Travel cots and highchairs are available on request. Brockhole offers adventure playgrounds and treetop nets just 3 miles away. Beatrix Potter attractions sit nearby. The large kitchen island lets families cook together. Windermere lake provides boat trips and beach areas for paddling.
For Couples
This property works better for groups than couples due to its size. Six bedrooms and large communal spaces suit multi-couple gatherings rather than romantic getaways. The hot tub and fell views create atmosphere. En-suite bathrooms in every room provide privacy. The terrace offers sunset watching. However, smaller Lake District cottages would suit two people better. Consider booking with other couples to justify the space and make the most of the facilities.
Pet Friendly
Cleabarrow Cottage does not accept pets. The property has a strict no-pets policy. If you're travelling with dogs, you'll need to find alternative accommodation in the Windermere area. Many other Lake District properties welcome pets, but this particular cottage focuses on families and groups without animals. The landscaped gardens and interiors are maintained pet-free. Contact the booking team to find suitable pet-friendly alternatives nearby.
