Poppy Cottage Reviews

Perfectly placed for BownessonWindermere with just a 10 minute walk into the village and a few minutes more to the waters edge. Shops, various pubs and restaurants to offer variety are plentiful. The cottage was homely and had everything we needed for a party of six. Just a note that anyone staying in the basement room will need to climb 2 sets of stairs for bathroom facilities. A great base from which to explore the lakes.

Bethany

We loved staying here! Very cozy and beautifully decorated I would definitely book this cottage again. The house stayed nice and warm and was in a good location. It was great to have 3 bathrooms everything was very clean as well. It would have been nice to have some additional potspans in the kitchen for folks who like to cook there was only one frying pan and it was peeling when we arrived so we didn't use it. Otherwise I thought the kitchen was great. Totally recommend!

Joanna

Lovely cottage does have almost everything. A microwave is handy, albeit not for everyone but buying local produce to reheat is convenient. The bed and showers are fantastic, the location is excellent with easy walks into Windamere and Bowness. It is a property we would definitely book again, the small things I mention do not take away how fabulous this was.
