    “We had a lovely weekend in this fabulous cottage.”

    It was comfortable, very well equipped, spacious and welcoming - also thank you to the owners for a first class welcome pack. We had an issue with the wifi passcode but that was sorted out in no time by the very helpful Sykes team - who’d have thought a lowercase letter could cause pandemonium haha! Just a couple of things to note - remember that no towels are provided - we ended up buying beach towels from the local shop! Also if you’re there in winter take some wood for the fire - ...

Just a couple of things to note - remember that no towels are provided - we ended up buying beach towels from the local shop! Also if you’re there in winter take some wood for the fire - warms up the whole cottage very nicely. All in all we had a fantastic weekend and would love to return.

About the location

POOLEY BRIDGE

Penrith 6 miles.

The picturesque village of Pooley Bridge sits on the northerly edge of Lake Ullswater in the Lake District National Park. The name Pooley came to be due to the forming of a large pool, which was left by the fast flowing River Eamont, and the word Bridge was later added when a bridge, which is now 250 years old, was built over the river. Pooley Bridge has many traditional inns and tempting tea rooms, plus the Ullswater Steamers depart from the village, from where a tranquil cruise down the lake to the villages of Glenridding and Howtown can be enjoyed. There are numerous walks with breathtaking views nearby, plus a short walk up to Dunmallard Hill reveals fascinating Iron-Age remains, whilst the towns of Penrith and Keswick are within driving distance. Pooley Bridge is an ideal base for a cottage holiday stay in the stunning Lake District.
