“Fabulous holiday cottage in a great quiet location but very easy to get to all the local attractions ( Kendal only 10 min drive with shops , supermarket etc and Windermere 20 mins the opposite way) The cottage is perfect with open fire and Aga which kept the kitchen very cosy !”

Jeanie and Logan were great hosts so friendly and helpful , especially when I had car trouble , nothing was too much trouble for them . I can not recommend this cottage enough and have already booked for next year !

“We had a lovely week at Mill cottage, the hosts who live next door were fantastic.”

The location was lovely and peaceful but an easy drive to Kendal and other locations. The measures put in place due to COVID were thorough and the house felt very safe and clean.

“We were absolutely blown away by the effort and commitment to ensuring the cottage was clean and safe in adherence to covid guidelines, with both a newborn and elderly family member in tow this was invaluable.”

The owners were incredibly welcoming and reassuring and the cottage was stunning. Beautiful location and charming accommodation and very helpful and friendly owners on hand if any help is needed.

“The cottage was wonderful.”

.. cozy and interesting! We loved everything about it and it suited us well and Jeannie and Logan were very welcoming and helpful as well as reassuring us within the COVID pandemic situation. I’m not sure if I missed it in the description but I just wonder if the need to empty red hot ash from the solid fuel aga and fill with coal twice daily, and the 3 large steps from the kitchen to the living room, should be mentioned in the cottage description as they may be challenging for some people. Our group found them charming!

“Charming and Cosy Cottage”

A charming and very comfortable cottage with open fire, AGA and loads of character. A lovely place to come home to after a long walk on the fells. Owners are on site and extremely helpful!

“Great for relaxing”

Stayed here for 4 nights, it’s fantastic for a short break. Logan and Jeannie (the owners) were really helpful and friendly. Perfect for a large family or for friends wanting to go away together.

“Our little Haven.”

With two dogs, two babies any holiday destination would be a struggle. This gem though made everything run smoothly. owners nearby with help and advice. super stores a short drive-away. surrounding countryside like a post card. with walks and fishing, pubs and restaurants plentiful this is a truly perfect location. value for money? you would struggle to find anywhere in this country for such money, I would of paid double.

“Comfortable and Cosy.”

Stayed with my Wife and my In-Laws for 4 nights. Our welcome from the Owners was informative, friendly and welcoming. The Aga cooker is a super warm welcome and the accommodation is comfortable and cosy. Thank you for a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Best regards and hope to stay again sometime.

“Little piece of heaven!”

Booked absolute last minute. Found online on Sat, arrived for a four night stay on the Monday. Expected little with the short notice, but how amazed we were to find this charming, cosy and homely little haven. We were made extremely welcome by Logan, who took his time showing us how to work the wonderful Aga, told us some of the history of the beautiful cottage, and showed us around. I'm very impressed that the fuel for the fire didn't cost extra. The traditional feel of the cottage adds to the experience. You'd be forgiven for thinking you'd gone back in time....with all mod cons thrown in too! Clean, cosy, welcoming and friendly. Out of the way enough to be peaceful, but close enough to towns and amenities for convenience. My little girls loved their stay in "Mrs Tiggywinkles Cottage", with so many wonderful features. We will definitely return,

“Fantastic location”

Our party consisted of myself, my husband , parents and our dog. We all received a very warm welcome from Jeanie on our arrival. Mill cottage is delightful loads of charm and its stocked with everything you could possibly need. It's in a great location very quiet and peaceful, yet not far from The lakes. It was very warm, cozy, clean and quite spacious for a cottage. Jeanie and Logan were very helpful with telling us the best places to visit, eat and walk the dog. Would definatley stay here again when visiting the Lake District.

“just what the doctor ordered”

Just returned from 5 days at Mill Cottage. Cottage was everything we could have asked or wished for. Plenty of charm and character, log fire for cosy nights and aga range which was on constantly kept the cottage nice and snug. More than big enough for our party of 6 adults and 2 large dogs. Everything was of a very high standard, the owners had thought of everything. All logs and coal was supplied as were other supplies we wouldnt have expected. Owners made us very welcome showing us how everything worked and were everything was. Didnt intrude into our space, but let us know were they were if anything was needed, pounted us in the direction of some good walks for the dogs and told us the best routes for sight seeing. All of us agreed we would definetly return and would recommend this cottage to others. Thank you xx

“gorgeous”

Very pleased with this cottage, booked last minute 5 night break and wish we'd had longer. The cottage was superb, beautifully decorated with lots of interesting features. The open fire and Aga were lovely touches. We really couldn't have asked for any better accommodation. Good location for accessing local amentities in Windermere, Ambleside and Kendal. We did a fair bit of walking around the local area. Would happily go back!

“We want to come back !”

Character cottage - quaint, homely, beautiful Open fire, comfortable seating Brilliant aga - great for getting around as a family with hot drinks, and the outdoor kit drying out in an instant Didn't want to go out, as the place was so lovely, but when we did - great walks and cycles from the door, beautiful valley "hidden gem" - I've come to the Lakes for years and never knew about it.

“Lovely old cottage, lovely owners, lovely area”

great place, lovely flagstone floors, aga in the kitchen which is on all the time, perfect for drying wet clothes after the inevitable walk in the rain. lots of toys for young children and board games for older people. Good sounding stereo (bring some CDs) and an open log fire with a guard for safety (not that I can keep a fire going). Wifi is in next house and only worked for me held up to a window or on the kitchen worktop so for anything other than specific use (eg check your email, quick browse) it's not there. No phone signal either but there is a phone (pay phone or incoming). Still you probably want to get away from all that. Lovely walks on hills in immediate vicinity and of course 15mins from Windermere.

“A very memorable stay for the family”

We all enjoyed our stay in Mill Cottage. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the location was perfect. We loved the aga in the kitchen and the cottage itself. Very dog friendly and the walks from the cottage up the hills behind gave us glorious views of the surrounding countryside.
