    Nothing to dislike.

    Lovely location for Coniston. In the shadow of the Old Man of Coniston for the more adventurous ones. Easy walk to Coniston for the others. Lake shore is easy to reach through the nearby caravan site.

    The hideaway cottage for single occupancy is ideal for a quiet night(s). Comfortable room with a kettle, mini fridge and tv. Very good electric shower with hot water is what is needed after a day out in the fells. Hosts are lovely and accommodating. The B&B is a walking distance to Coniston. There is a footpath along the lake that keeps you off the road.

    Nothing. Everything was excellent

    The property is so quaint! The lay-out is very efficient and the setting is just beautiful. I loved the cottage-style decor of the property and the location is ideal for any outdoor activities in the area. Breakfast was a winner! Our host was kind, friendly, attentive and well informed about the area, its history and the the treasures to discover while hiking and cycling. The bed was sublime. I slept like a baby and woke up to a fabulous view every morning.

    Bed was a little soft for me.

    Friendly and helpful owners, great breakfast. Room was fine, and as expected, if a little compact to spend much time in (but that’s not really why you go to the Lake District).

    The owner was too pushy selling the books for the charity fundraising she was running, it felt almost an obligation for the guests.

    Cosy cottage, intimate and friendly. Outside of town, it’s very refreshing to wake up to a beautiful green view and only a short drive to amenities.

    We had a most enjoyable stay with Stuart and Sandy. Our cottage was nice and cosy (loved the sheep themed decoration!) and featured a well equipped kitchen (which we didn't use appart from the kettle as we preffered to visit the pubs in Torver and Coniston). Stuart provided us with a delicious breakfast every morning (we were offered a choice of salmon and scramble eggs and the traditional full cooked and there were fruits and joghurts as well as cereals). It's not far from the lake and ideal for hiking the Coniston fells - the Old Man of Coniston can be done right from the doorstep. We also enjoyed the company of Tommy the cat and the three very friendly Golden Retrievers after breakfast, so that's an additional bonus for cat and dog lovers.

    There wasn't anything I didn't like from my stay with them.

    A very friendly welcome by Stuart on arrival, and later met Sandy, Thomas the cat & the 3 retrievers. Shown where everything was & confirmed breakfast choices. A lovely quiet bedroom with a view of the fells behind. Parking on site too. In the bedroom was a mini fridge, kettle, tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and water. In the bathroom, were complimentary Pure Lake products to use if you forgot your own. I'm definitely going to stay again.
