Such a great house in a beautiful spot

This was more than we would normally spend on a week in the lakes but so worth it the cottage was so comfortable with everything you could need but the beauty of it was in 3 mins you could walk to the lakeside of Windermere you’re own little piece of tranquility - just such a treat

Amazing Location

We have stayed in many holiday homes in the UK and this one is a favourite. The location is fantastic. Just a few minutes walk from the Lake itself where on sunny days you can watch the boats go by all day. The location is remote, which took a while to get used to. We had excellent customer service from Sarah & Paul.

A quiet location perfect to get away from it all

A charming cottage, tucked away in a quiet off-the-road area and 2 minutes walk from the lake shore. Clean and comfortable throughout.

Enjoyable escape

Whilst perhaps lacking the wow factor when we arrived, the house served our purposes really well and we enjoyed our stay very much. Warm, decent kitchen, near the lake, great base for exploring. And we were allowed bring our 3 dogs who loved their stay! Great base for GraythWaite adventures.

Wonderful cosy cottage

Loved our stay at Mill cottage. The cottage is tucked away down a private road with the river running through the garden and the lake a few hundred yards away. There are lovely, if muddy, walks from the doorstep which is just what we needed. The cottage has everything you will need and the view from the main bedroom is beautiful.

Thank you

A wonderful stay, made even more fabulous from the access to the Lake below the house, so hours spent on the kayak and the children exploring their own Island!….and a truly memorable walk up to Old Man Coniston !!

Beautiful setting

Beautiful setting just a short walk from the shores of Windermere. First visit this year to another of Graythwaite’s charming property’s. A well equipped comfortable cottage highly recommended for walking round the local area. If you’re lucky enough to be there when the pop-up camp site is open, which is just a short walk along the lake, you definitely need to pop along and join the friendly staff around the fire pits for toasted marshmallows and a drink from the converted horse box.

Autumn Stay

We had a lovely stay at Mill Cottage. A couple of things that could be improved, little things like the hand wash, fairy liquid etc all ran out during our stay, so we had to buy extra, these could be full at the start of the week so you don’t run out. There were also quite a lot of cars doing work/visiting the barns whilst we were there which wasn’t ideal with a dog and a toddler. Overall though it is a lovely cottage in a great location and perfect for visiting places in the surrounding areas ☺️

Spacious cottage right on the Lake

Well located (for the Lake) and very spacious cottage with powerful heating and shower. Excellent for wild swimming and SUP. Which we needed during a very wet August week and storm which did take down a power line leading to a six hour power cut. With seven blown lights, a dead TV remote, mould in the washing machine, the odd cobweb and a few other things the property could have been a bit better prepared but maintenance fixed most of these. We found the beds pretty hard.

Mill Cottage

There was no provision for the replacement/change of bedding and towels. Not sure who was responsible for this but a 12 night stay in the same bedding and use of the same towels is not acceptable. I would recommend the property but with a warning to establish arrangements for above.

Very peaceful stay in a beautiful setting

The Mill Cottage and surrounding property is absolutely beautiful. Truly like living in a fairly tale. The cottage was just as described, but the photos just can’t do it justice. On our first day the ferry was closed which which was a real inconvenience for our plans to visit Windermere and Bowness. That turned out to be a blessing in disguise since we were able to explore the Graythwaite property and the quaint town of Hawkshead. If you enjoy walking as much as we do you will love this area. We also rented e-bikes which I highly recommend to tour this side of the lake. Do NOT venture into Windermere, Bowness, or Ambleside on a bike. Those are not bike or pedestrian friendly places. Look both ways before sprinting across the roads.
