“Fabulous”

A lovely cottage with fabulous views. Extremely clean and lovely and warm. Easy walking distance down to the Lake and scenic walk to Coniston. The cottage was well equipped and big enough for 6 adults. The hot tub was fabulous and we certainly made plenty of use of it especially after a winter walk. The internet was good. We'll definitely book again. We booked direct with the owner which saved us money.

“Beautiful cottage - just outside Torver Well appointed - very kind hosts who couldn’t do enough to make sure our stay was special.”

The Elf on the shelf was a nice touch - and our 7 year old twins enjoyed the complimentary biscuits The highlight for them was the hot-tub just outside the heated conservatory - and the spare towels were a welcome surprise The cottage made a nice break very special.

“A comfortable warm cottage well equipped with all mod-cons.”

Appreciated the two outdoor seating areas and thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. Beautiful view from the sitting room, across fields and to the distant hills as well as Lake Coniston.

“Great location - just a couple of miles from Coniston village and just a 20min drive to Windermere.”

Hot tub was great after a day of hiking!
Mrs Barker May 2019

“We had a super time and Helen & Allan looked after us very well - just one small point we have used Sykes a number of times and this is due to the accuracy of the listings - however on this occasion we did feel the photos made the house look a lot bigger than it was - especially the outside area which is important when you have children.”

Thank you very much for your feed back, We are pleased you enjoyed your stay I have had Sykes out to re take all my photos and have asked them to show the outside space, Thank you Thank you Owner relations

“We had an excellent long weekend at Underwood with 3 generations of family celebrating a diamond wedding anniversary.”

It was good that all the bedrooms were ensuite and that it was mostly on one level ,only the conservatory had steps .it was well equipped, very clean and comfortable . It would have been nice if the heating had been on for our arrival as it was cold that day but it did warm up when we lit the fire and boosted the central heating . Overall it was a good few days and I have no qualms about recommending this cottage .

Cannot fault it
Mrs Pollard July 2018

“We enjoyed our stay in this clean, comfortable and well-equipped cottage.”

The views are spectacular and the hot tub was a very relaxing place to be at the end of a busy day. The helpful owners live next door and came quickly if we needed anything but otherwise left us to enjoy our time at the property. Our dog was welcomed, settled down quickly, and enjoyed her walks along the safe path across the road. We had plenty of good quality towels and good quality linen on our very comfortable beds. A very enjoyable week.

“A perfect property for a family”

We rented the cottage for a family celebration weekend break. We were all delighted with the location, views and privacy that we found when we arrived, and the cottage was beautiful. All of the rooms were clean and the cottage was large enough to accommodate five adults easily. The hot tub was an added bonus at the end of a long rewarding walk.

“Wonderful break”

Underwood was the perfect place to stay. Cosy comfortable cottage. Welcoming owners. Everything very clean and well equipped . Good location to reach all areas of the lakes. Wonderful view from the cottage, lovely to return to at the end of a day sightseeing. We couldn't have chosen better.

“Beautiful Comfortable, Cottage - With Gorgeous Views”

Loved our weeks family stay at Underwood - a beautiful, dog friendly, spacious cottage that had everything we needed and more. It was very comfortable, clean and lovely to come back to after a day out and about. Very peaceful and relaxing, with amazing views. The cottage is a great place to base yourself to explore other towns and lakes. But we also loved Coniston village and the lake itself- enjoyed kayaking and the motor boats. Also visited and enjoyed a excellent meal at one of the local pubs 5 mins drive up the road at Torver. Some lovely walks direct from the cottage to the waters edge and on to Coniston. We ended every day with a dip in the hot tub under the stars, perfect! The owners were very friendly and we would highly recommend Underwood to anyone considering a visit to the Lakes.

“Lovely property - ideal for family gathering”

I chose Underwood Cottage as it seemed to fit the bill - 3 bedrooms with en-suites plus a hot tub in beautiful surroundings to celebrate my 60th birthday with adult children & partners. I chose well! It was advertised as welcoming dogs and as we don't have a dog, I did wonder if the cottage might show "doggy wear and tear" . However, Underwood was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. An added bonus was that we could walk "The old Man of Coniston" from the doorstep together with many other delightful walks and bike rides without the need to get in the car. The weather was unseasonably cold but the cottage was snug and warm and we had no need to light the woodburner ( mores the pity). We would definitely book again.

“A lovely, well equipped bungalow situated in perfect surroundings.”

Lovely well equipped and presented bungalow, plenty of parking, within easy reach of Coniston and other villages. Many cicular walks from the door plus alot within short driving distance. Pub approx 1 mile from bungalow to which dogs are allowed. We all really enjoyed out stay, dogs as well, we benefited from the peace and quiet and felt very relaxed by the time our week was complete.
