“We loved the cottage at Undercragg.”

Plenty of room for the four of us, (and two dogs) lovely furnishings, bedding and character with stunning scenery from every window and door. The home was well equipped with plenty of towels, toilet roll and cleaning products, soap and hand wash, with some essentials in the cupboards such as tea, coffee, sugar, salt, pepper, etc. Lovely open fire, which was not really needed as we had gorgeous weather but we just had to light a fire when we were there. Quite a long, single track road in ...

Plenty of room for the four of us, (and two dogs) lovely furnishings, bedding and character with stunning scenery from every window and door. The home was well equipped with plenty of towels, toilet roll and cleaning products, soap and hand wash, with some essentials in the cupboards such as tea, coffee, sugar, salt, pepper, etc. Lovely open fire, which was not really needed as we had gorgeous weather but we just had to light a fire when we were there. Quite a long, single track road in some parts to get to the cottage, but good fun. Lots of additional touches such as a bottle of wine and sponge cake on arrival to towels for the dogs. There is no phone signal or WiFi but that added to the relaxing holiday and not constantly checking emails etc. But there is a basic sky tv and DVD’s availability, along with CD player and radio. The gardens were stunning with plenty of tables and chairs. We would really love to come back to Undercragg in the future and would definitely recommend this beautiful cottage.

“We had a wonderful stay at Undercragg.”

Our host Sheila welcomed us. The cottage is in a gorgeous setting and we loved the enclosed garden as our dogs were able to go off lead. Stunning views from the house, watching the lambs prance and leap around the field was lovely. The house is really comfortable and you have everything you need. There are plenty of walks on the doorstep with breathtaking views. Our stay was so peaceful, a breath of fresh air. The beams weren't a problem as others reviewed and we are all between 5ft 9' and 6ft 4' and we managed OK. Would highly recommend and we would love to return again.

- Mrs Jones, May 2021
Mr Wright April 2021

“I think I may have missed when booking the fact there is no Mobile signal for some considerable distance (4 miles) and no Internet (WiFi) at House.”

- Mr Wright, April 2021
Mr Brown August 2020

“Superb location - we enjoyed several walks directly from the cottage, and fortunately the local pub reopened while we were there!”

The lounge suite was very saggy and would benefit from replacement. In all Undercragg is a lovely cottage, however, the lack of a dishwasher is sufficient for us not to consider returning. Although we were fully aware of this at the time of booking, we soon tired of the constant stream of washing up. Moreover, at this price level, and for a property set up for a family, this really should be provided - and there is plenty of room for one if the washing machine is relocated to the utility room.

- Mr Brown, August 2020
Mr Henderson August 2020

“A brilliant places with all little touches that make it very special, form a home made cake, wine and milk.”

A well stocked library of local information. This is a fantastic cottage where you can just chill in the garden or roll out into the fells. I would recommend this cottage to anyone.

- Mr Henderson, August 2020
Mrs Holt July 2020

“Undercragg is a beautiful cottage, we loved all the old features and vintage decor.”

Lots of throughtful touches. It had everything we needed and the location is spectacular. The Duddon Valley is stunning and not so busy as other parts of the Lakes.

- Mrs Holt, July 2020
Mrs Meech October 2019

“Third time back to Undercragg.”

Love the peace and quiet. We knew the cottage would be cosy and we'll equipped so no surprises. Fantastic views and walking from the cottage.

- Mrs Meech, October 2019
Ms Thompson October 2019

“Undercrag is probably the nicest self catering property we have stayed at.”

It was a bit more expensive than we usually pick for just 2 of us, but was worth the extra for it’s fantastic location and comfort. We always look for dog friendly properties, which sometimes means a long list of rules and poorer quality of soft furnishings. Not in this case. We will book again!

- Ms Thompson, October 2019
Mr Entwistle July 2019

“We were greeted by the owner who had left a homemade cake, some milk and a bottle of wine!”

it was most welcoming after a long journey. The cottage was SO beautifully presented inside, with great attention to detail, and very clean. there was extra condiments, sugar, coffee and tea, and even a well equipped sewing box. Watching the young calves ith there mothers jut a few feet away over the fence was beautiful.

- Mr Entwistle, July 2019
Mrs Spriggs July 2019

“What a gem of a place, beautiful setting, so clean and comfortable should be 5 star rated.”

The most peaceful place and wonderful walks from the door.

- Mrs Spriggs, July 2019
Ms Pope July 2019

“The cottage is more generously equipped than the specifications suggest - extra electric heaters, soap, toilet paper, warm bathroom.”

All very clean, well thought out and user friendly. (Landline phone with trust box.) Full of kindness.

- Ms Pope, July 2019
Mrs Chase June 2019

“This is my second visit to Undercragg and the week was fantastic.”

The weather was the best ever which always helps. Walking in shorts and T shirt at 6 in the morning with blue cloudless skies in the Lakes just didn't feel right!!

- Mrs Chase, June 2019
Mrs Mcnamara May 2019

“The low beams were a bit of a challenge but beanie hats stuffed with socks sorted the problem.”

This was more than made up for by the location and comfort. As sky tv is in the cottage I think the owners should consider installing WiFi. In this day and age it’s a bit like not having electricity. Apart from that it’s perfect.

- Mrs Mcnamara, May 2019
Mr Bainbridge May 2019

“I stayed at Undercragg as a 14 year old in 1981 and absolutely loved it.”

I have wanted to go back ever since but I knew it ceased to be a holiday cottage in around 1982, so I never thought I would get the chance to return. I cant tell you how thrilled I was to discover it is once again available to rent! And it is just as beautiful and peaceful as I remember it! My husband, children and I had a really lovely week there and it thoroughly lived up to and exceeded our expectations, from the cleanliness to the wonderfully comfortable beds, from the cake and wine on arrival to the very well stocked cupboards - everything was thought of. It is an amazing cottage in an amazing place.

- Mr Bainbridge, May 2019
Mr Nemeth April 2019

“It was the best holiday ever.”

The house is absolutely brilliant. the area is amazing. we catch beautiful weather. Many walks around the house, so if you like not even need to start your car. Fortunately ther is no signal for mobile phone. This is the best things. nothing and noone brak your holiday. Just bird sings and nature. Thank you very much for being here this week. I hope we can get back here again

- Mr Nemeth, April 2019
Mr Beavan March 2019

“This is in a superb setting and is a peaceful and very comfortable cottage - our second visit and not the last.”

Only two comments about improvement: a tumble dryer really should be available (especially if you are staying for more than a week) - and a dishwasher would be a real bonus! Who likes to spend holiday time washing up?! Apart from that, this is a generously equipped and lovely place - and so clean!

- Mr Beavan, March 2019
Ms Borland February 2019

“Absolutely perfect cottage in a great location for exploring the Lake District.”

Spotlessly clean and lovely extra touches to make it so welcoming, would recommend to anyone.

- Ms Borland, February 2019
Mr Landles October 2018

“This is a truly authentic cottage set in the quiet Dudden Valley.”

There are many walking options from the cottage itself and it is quite possible to spend a week here without the use of a car.

- Mr Landles, October 2018
Mrs Graham September 2018

“Beautiful rural period cottage set in some of the most untouched and stunning views in the Lake District.”

Quiet and peaceful surroundings. Cottage is spotless and well stocked. The owner has thought of everything. Walks from the front door and within walking distance to a lovely local pub that serves good food and ale, about a 20 minutes walk from there is a post office and small convenience store. I would say this cottage is underestimated in description and photos. Maybe thats a good thing!

- Mrs Graham, September 2018
Mr Taylor August 2018

“As always we enjoyed the peace and solitude that this cottage offers due to its location and this is our third visit in five years however we were disappointed to find that the shower door still leaks, making the carpet wet.”

This meant that the bathroom had a really bad smell and has put us off booking this place in the future until it is sorted out. The note on the window sill saying sorry wet carpet implies that it’s the fault of the previous occupants and it hasn’t had time to dry out. Time to rip it out and put some tiles down, carpet in the bathroom is very unhygienic.

- Mr Taylor, August 2018
Miss Davis August 2018

“Everything you might need has been thought of and provided, even dog bowls and dog towels .”

It is spotlessly clean and well thought out. There are some beautiful walks straight from the front door, the rocky walk along the river is not to be missed provided you don't mind a bit of a scramble. The garden in wonderful, safe and enclosed, it is quiet and peaceful and we have never been more relaxed - perfect.

- Miss Davis, August 2018
Miss Radford June 2018

“Excellent accommodation, personal touches by the owner were greatly appreciated.”

- Miss Radford, June 2018
Mr Fivash June 2018

“Remote and unspoilt area of the Lake District.”

Love the location and have visited many times. Plenty of walks from the door. Lovely large enclosed garden for the dog. The cottage itself is very clean and tidy and everything you would need is provided, even spare dog bowls. Enjoyed watching the sheep and lambs in the opposite field.

- Mr Fivash, June 2018
Mrs Dean May 2018

“Lovely cottage beautiful views,would recommend.”

- Mrs Dean, May 2018
Mr Macdonald May 2018

“Cottage was superb.”

We had a wonderful week there. Instructions of how to use the TV were not clear so we never used the TV.

- Mr Macdonald, May 2018
Mrs Frith March 2018

“Undercragg is THE best cottage we've ever stayed in.”

It was our 3rd visit and it never fails to meet our needs. The cottage is welcoming and there isn't a thing that you might want, that isn't already there. We've never visited a cottage that is so well "stocked" with the essentials and more. Love it so much, that we are reluctant to let anyone else know about it.

- Mrs Frith, March 2018
Mrs Flynn February 2018

“Undercragg was a real home from home, it was warm, clean and really well equipped.”

The location for peace, quiet and relaxation was perfect with the added bonus of a secure garden for our little dog.

- Mrs Flynn, February 2018
Miss Hammerton November 2017

“The cottage was absolutely perfect.”

Very secluded and you really don’t get any service for miles, so a complete break from the outside world. The location is fantastic with incredible views and plenty of walks on the doorstep. Very dog friendly which we loved. The Newfield Inn served some lovely homemade meals definitely worth a visit and just 5-10 minute walk down the road. This cottage and holiday has everything we could have ever asked for.

- Miss Hammerton, November 2017
Mrs Hearn September 2017

“The cottage was lovely.”

An excellent welcome with cake, wine and milk. The beds were comfortable and the cottage was cosy. Plenty of wood and coal to make a log fire in the evenings. A home from home with a very well equipped cottage.

- Mrs Hearn, September 2017
Mr Lee April 2017

“Everything apart from the weather was as it is always is.”

Perfect !!!!!!

Fantastic accommodation. We will be back.

- Miss Chapman, December 2016
Mrs Pim October 2016

“We had a fantastic week.”

Stunning location out in the wilds.......... just what we like. The Autumn colour was stunning in the Duddon Valley and surrounding fells. The cottage was wonderful, loved the low beams and the window seats. Even though it was cold outside (10 degrees) we were warm inside. The open fire was a real treat and brought back childhood memories of lighting fires with grandparents!! The garden was lovely and the dogs loved running round playing chase. All the rooms were comfortable and the amount of equipment supplied was just amazing........thanks Shelia for thinking of all eventualities!! Oh and the coffee cake provided was delightful - being my husbands favourite cake and thanks for the bottle of wine. We think the description.......... calling the upstairs WC an ensuite to one of the single bedrooms - would be much better if it was just called a separate upstairs WC.

- Mrs Pim, October 2016
Mrs Tinning August 2016

“The literature didn't do the cottage justice.”

it far exceeded our expectations.

- Mrs Tinning, August 2016
Mr Staddon August 2016

“It was a fantastic, well located, well equipped base for our walking holiday.”

The cottage was superb and the little touches like the home made cake, bottle of wine, pint of milk and fire already set to go were really appricated after a long journey Many thanks to Sheila

- Mr Staddon, August 2016
Mrs Bailey August 2016

“Booking process was easy.”

All info required was sent promptly. The cottage was amazing - if you're after peace and quiet, spectacular walks from the door and the chance to see the lakes away from the more 'commercial' view - then this is the place to go. Will visit again, no doubts.

- Mrs Bailey, August 2016
Mr Hewlett August 2016

“An excellent cottage.”

Very remote, but if you are looking for a cut-off retreat in beautiful Lake District countryside, with superb walking, look no further. And there is a pub with good food and beer within walking distance - what more do you really need!

- Mr Hewlett, August 2016
Ms Watts April 2016

- Miss Walker, March 2016
Dr Starr-Keddle February 2016

“I was particularly looking for a cottage that was tucked away in the middle of nowhere, with excellent walks from the doorstep and had a warm cosy feel with an open fire.”

This cottage exceeded my expectations and I had a lovely time here. The kitchen was well-stocked, there was firewood, kindling and coals provided, the rooms were warm and the beds are comfortable. The living room was cosy with nice views out of the windows and the walks from the cottage were great: rivers, glades, rock formations, crags and up through woodlands into the open fells. I didn't see anyone whilst I was there (except tiny spots in the distance)! I will be coming back!

- Dr Starr-Keddle, February 2016
Mrs Lightburn December 2015

- Mrs Lightburn, December 2015
Mrs Shattock November 2015

- Mr Goldthorpe, May 2015
Mr Aldred May 2015

“This was just ideal for us.”

The cottage was beautifully appointed, warm, clean and very quiet. The whole valley was quite unspoilt, like going back to the Lake District as it was 50 years ago.

“We stayed there for 4 days and enjoyed every minute, the cottage was very cosy and full of personal touches.”

It was clean and everything you need for your stay, we had the pleasure of meeting the lady who owns it and what a lovely lady she was. Ideal for peace and quiet if that's what you are looking for, my springer loved the freedom and plenty of walks to go on, would recommend and will definitely be going back. Thank you for letting us stay at your cottage.

- Mr Howell, September 2014
Mrs Frith September 2014

“This has to be the BEST cottage we have ever stayed in.”

We have never seen such a well stocked "home." The owner obviously loves her home and ensures that visitors are catered for in every way possible. It was quiet, just how we like it, yet only 10 minutes from one of the best pubs in the Lake District. I honestly couldn't find fault with anything at all. We loved every minute and would definitely recommend it to anyone seeking peace and tranquility. LOVED IT!

- Mrs Frith, September 2014
Prof Renshaw May 2014

“A most enjoyable week with sunshine more than rain.”

Lovely walks from the door, Dow Crag, in particular, gives wonderful views. Undercragg cottage is one of the best we have ever stayed in; warm, comfortable, beautifully furnished and well-appointed. All the little homely touches were greatly appreciated.

Mrs Hamer December 2013

“Undercragg is a lovely property in a beautiful location.”

It is spotlessly clean and tidy, very well equipped, warm and comfortable. The Christmas decorations were also very pretty and festive! Despite the weather we had wonderful high and low level walks from the door and thoroughly enjoyed exploring the quiet and stunning Duddon Valley; the cottage is an excellent starting point. We travelled from Dartmoor and had a wonderful holiday. I would highly recommend this accommodation and would love to return.

- Mrs Hamer, December 2013
Ms Harris November 2013

Mrs Davies July 2013

“Loved everything.”

It was fantastic, the cottage, the location, the peace and quiet, the pub down the road after a hard days walking, the dog friendly nature of the cottage. The welcome pack of the cake, wine, milk, tea bags, everything that you could want was there. The garden was perfect for the dogs, enclosed, large and did not have to worry about them as it was totally secure, will definitely return.

- Mrs De Maillet, May 2013
Mrs Warmer May 2013

“Not having been to this particular cottage before it was fantastic to find such a glorious and remote spot.”

It has gone onto our definitely visit again places. The cottage is clean, comfy and warm with everything we needed. Walks from the door and away from it all. All the owner's extra touches made it homely and welcoming.

- Mrs Warmer, May 2013
Mr Bousfield May 2013

“The property was very well equipped, in fact we didn't need to take the things we usually have to take and the fuel was very generous.”

The cottage is in a very remote spot, ideal if you want a quiet break. There was also a lot of nice touches, a bottle of wine, a cake and all the cleaning materials needed to mention but a few.

- Mr Bousfield, May 2013
Mrs Aspin December 2012

“The cottage was everything we could have wished for and well equipped.”

We really didn't need to take anything! Totally secluded and peaceful, in stunning surroundings. There was a pleasant country pub less than a mile away and loads of great local walks for the dogs. The garden was large and securely fenced and there was ample parking for a few cars. We will definitely be back!

Mrs Williams June 2012

“We had a wonderful time and the cottage and the location was just stunning.”

The cleanliness of the cottage was a huge bonus. We are not used to driving on the tiny roads of England any more, but felt getting to the cottage was well worth the drive. We loved the seclusion of the cottage, after visiting lots of friends and relatives, the peace was heaven. The welcoming gift of wine and cake was a lovely surprise and the helpfulness of the owners when we needed them was great. Thank you so much!

About the location

BROUGHTON-IN-FURNESS

Millom 7.5 miles; Coniston 9 miles; Ulverston 9.5 miles.

Dating back to the 11th century, Broughton-in-Furness is situated in the south western corner of the Lake District and is just six miles from Coniston Water. There is much to please the visitor such as a pretty, cobbled square complete with a splendid horse chestnut tree, enclosed by shops, pubs and homes, many of them Georgian in origin. The village provides an ideal base for a walking or climbing holiday, with ample opportunity to explore the rugged beauty of the Duddon Valley and the quieter Lake District fells. Norman Nicholson, one of Britain's finest 20th century poets and William Wordsworth, both immortalised this area in their writing and poetry. The village was home to Branwell Bronte, brother of the Bronte sisters, for a short time. The Furness railway line runs from nearby Foxfield and makes for an ideal day out, travelling the west coast of Cumbria. Set amidst the charm of the Lake District and close to the sea, this attractive town makes an inspiring choice from which to further explore a magical heartland of silver lakes, lofty towering peaks and lonely, heather-clad moors.
