A wonderful stay!

We had a great time staying at The Cedars. The house looked great on the pictures but blew us away when we saw it in real life. Very spacious and a wonderful stay for a celebration with friends/family. Very luxurious.

Lovely house in quite location

Great house and well appointed with lots of bedroom space. Kitchen a bit small for 10 adults but expect it would not be a problem for families. Access to lake windermere was amazing and it felt very private. A few problem with upstairs shower but maintenence person turned up immediately. Would stay again

Fun at The Cedars

Lovely property in forestry setting and short walk to the lake. Roomy with good seating and two televisions making it perfect for a large family with children. Wood burning stove and a well equipped kitchen, and nice, clean bedrooms. Utility room very warm and great for drying clothing and wet suits.Host very approachable. A bit muddy with puddles outside front door but understandable in the setting of the Lake District!

Yearly get together of 10 ladies

Very comfortable place to stay with plenty of everything in the kitchen. The BBQ and outside areas weren’t very clean. Despite this it was overall a fantastic place to stay. Superb view 2 mins from the property and plenty of trails. The 505 bus will pick up with a hand signal and drop off at the property

Absolutely Amazing!

We came away for our first family holiday since the children have been born and we could not ask for anything more. The Cedars was amazing and catered for our every need as a family of Auntie's, Uncle's Grandparents and children. Communication with Lois was fast, polite and we were well informed. We arrived and the check in process was so easy, when inside we realised how beautiful the place was and the kids had toys etc to keep them entertained whilst the rest of the party arrived. We had space for the kids to run around and the lake was about a 1 minute walk which was great for the kids too. It was so quiet (once the kids were in bed!) so gave the adults some well needed resting time and we could relax on the furniture outside which was just amazing, we stargazed at night and sat on the jetty looking up at the stars once it was dark which was so quiet and peaceful... it was idyllic! The stay felt like a home from home and was not too far from the town and shops so we could access everything we needed for breakfast etc. The utility room on the side of the cabin was brilliant as we could wash the kids clothes etc which was a massive help to us! I do agree with another review that the sofa's are a little dated but they were still comfy but that is my only one comment but The Cedars is an incredible place to stay and we are already planning on coming back here!!

A wonderful family holiday property and ideal location

We had an absolutely fabulous stay at the cedars. Too much to write to will do a bullet point review. Pros - location is so wonderful. Amazing to have Windermere as a back garden! - size of property and rooms perfect. Loads of space to relax and enjoy inside. We were 7 adults and 2 young kids and it didn't feel cramped at all. - close to lots of lovely walks and activities - parking for three if not four cars - well stocked kitchen with dishwasher and two big fridge freezers - 4 bathrooms, one bath - big utility room with washer dryer (same building but accessed via outdoor door) - kids games and toys in the property - great host and easy communication - nice big towels Cons Only a few little issues which host kindly tried to resolve. But I think it might just be the area. The Internet was very patchy and not accessible all around the house. Not a big issue for a holiday but given signal is bad it could be problematic if planning to work from here. Had some issued with lights not working but these were resolved by host. Coffee machine is very fancy but didn't work well. It's an induction hob (for those planning to bring their own) As we had a crawling baby the hard slate and wooden floors were difficult to navigate but this is only a problem for families with very young kids prone to falling! Overall we really had an excellent stay with a few little niggles. I wouldissued if I could! We would very happily be back and would highly recommend!

Fabulous private spacious house

Lovely property hidden away in a gorgeous forested area on the shores of Windermere close to a lake district town centre. Spacious, clean, comfortable. We had a summer stay so weather conditions warm but there was a stove and heating. Suitable for energetic primary school age kids. Would stay again, happy with it.

Great house, perfect location

Lovely spacious house and well equipped. Excellent communication from Lois prior to our stay. The location is wonderful, we saw lots of wildlife from the house and enjoyed walks and cycles straight from the door. Close enough to Ambleside to nip in for some groceries or a takeaway, yet feels secluded and private at the house. Comfortable beds, very clean, modern bathrooms, excellent utility room. Highly recommended.

Adventure and relaxation

5 couples and 2 children stayed for a week of adventure and relaxation. the accommodation was fabulous and suited us perfectly, especially the ease of letting all of us to eat and sit together. The bedrooms were great. Most impressive was the location. We swam, kayaked, paddle boarded, ran, mountain biked, climbed all from the front door. And then we relaxed. in front of the fire. A brilliant family adventure holiday.

Amazing idyllic house in great location

Stayed at The Cedars for 4 nights with friends, we were totally blown away how amazing the house was. We knew from the pictures and reviews the house was impressive, but being there in real life was truly amazing. The location was superb, so tranquil and peaceful just what we all wanted after such a difficult year. We even saw deer right outside the house. The host was very quick to respond and informative on all queries asked. I’ve got a further stay here in September which I can’t wait for. Highly recommend

Great Property

The property and location were perfect for our family. Lots of space to get together, lovely views, warm, clean and comfortable nights. Super to be so close to the Lake and nature. House overall well equipped. A larger fridge and freezer in the Utility Room would be appreciated. Also hooks in there to hang wet walking clothing and a rack to dry shoes. Everyone enjoyed their stay. Thankyou Lois.
