We spent one week in this beautiful cottage and couldn't have wished for a better accommodation for our vacation! The cottage is wonderfully located in the heart of Windermere, making it an ideal starting point for day trips! The cottage is lovingly furnished and up to date! We are very grateful for the great time we were able to spend in Windermere and would book the accommodation again at any time! Many thanks also to our hosts for the warm welcome and hospitality!

The Floss Cottage
Our second stay and it was as great as the first time. This time we did not take the car. Clean and efficient taxis from and to the railway station special thanks to Lakeside taxis.We used the buses a lot - what great drivers dealing with narrow roads, animals etc. we climbed Helvellyn which was my husband’s challenge. We would recommend Rydal cave from toddlers onwards we had a great stay. Thanks to our golden hosts and Vrbo.

Couldn't ask for more
My husband and I had the most amazing break at this beautiful cottage. It is small, but perfect for two, and set in Ron and Val's gorgeous garden. We really couldn't have asked for more, the cottage was clean and very well equipped, the bed was comfortable and Ron and Val are very welcoming. It is positioned perfectly for exploring the whole of the Lake District - we were lucky to have sunshine throughout our stay and loved every moment. Thank you Val, Ron and Michael for your hospitality!

Delightful Floss Cottage
We both enjoyed our time at Floss Cottage which was comfortable, spotless and well appointed. We loved the cup cakes Valerie baked for us and both her and husband Ron were very friendly and lovely to talk to. We highly recommend Floss Cottage as a place to stay.

Adorable little cottage with lovely hosts. The cottage was very well-equipped, and comfortable, though quite small. It is in a gorgeous garden right near the center of Windermere.

Beautiful cottage in stunning gardens
The Floss really is a perfect little getaway. Beautifully clean, very comfortable with the added bonus of a stunning garden to sit and enjoy after a long days walking.
The welcome cakes were an unexpected treat and absolutely scrummy.
Perfectly located so that you can explore both Bowness and Windermere, along with some very nice restaurants, and also great links to public transport if required.
And of course plenty of great walks on the doorstep to keep you busy.

Amazing
An amazing find, a beautiful little cottage in spectacular garden of a beautiful house. With Ron and Val being gracious hosts we loved our stay here.
The place was cozy, well thought out and immaculate in its decorative styling and features. We loved it here and is a great find if you need access to the lakes. We are paddle boarders and as a base it was perfect, also a few minutes walk into the centre of Windermere was ideal.
We will definitely be back and already recommended it to loads of people wanting a place to stay in the lakes.

A Little Gem in a Beautiful Setting
Fantastic property very well equipped very high standard a lot of thought gone into design and décor amazing how spacious a feel it had.

Beautiful but not so good with communication
Property was excellent, clean and central to all areas.
We arrived and unfortunately the owner didn’t communicated with his parents that we were arriving. Agreed to delay check in time for 2 hours so this would allow time for them to get the place cleaned and ready for us. The property was ready and the couple apologised. The lady provided us with lovely cupcakes.

Best ever
This cottage is the most delightful and charming place we have ever stayed. The setting - the beautiful garden - is lovely. The hosts are wonderful - we were given tea and delicious little cakes that made us feel so welcome. Every detail of the cottage is special - the little lights that show the way down the stairs, the cheerful colors that greeted us each morning, the skylight that filled the bedroom with light, and my favorite of all - the mood light in the bathtub. What a wonderful place to spend a wonderful week. Everything was provided for our comfortable stay, and the cottage was perfectly clean. Everything was even better than our highest hopes.

Perfect location, amazing place for 2
My partner's Dad gave her the first Arthur Ransome Swallows and Amazons book well before she could read. So, since I was headed to England for a friend's retirement, it was natural to head to the Lakes District, where I found this complete gem of a place. It is in Windermere, which suited us perfectly. It is up the hill from the busier Bowness on Windermere, but just a five minute walk from the train station where you can connect to buses to get anywhere you want to go. Having seen the driving there, please take the buses. This cottage is in back of a house on a quiet street. The house and cottage are set in an amazing garden. The cottage was fresh and spotless, the interior build was very thoughtful and high quality. The only caveat is that if you have mobility issues, there are stairs to get from the entry down to the kitchen/bath and up to the sleeping loft. Incredibly comfortable and well stocked, there were 4 cupcakes waiting for us on arrival. We could not have done any better for setting, location, and comfort. Five stars all around.

Magnificent property brilliant place
The cottage in magnificent grounds was the best we’ve stayed at. The quality of the cottage was first class and there was an abundance of quality in every area in f the cottage. Lovely gardens nice sized lounge with dining table. Quality kitchen with every available gaget of quality. Beautiful bathroom with bath jacuzzi and powerful shower. Lovely mezzanine bedroom with all necessary accessories and a lovely large bed. Outside with lovely views of the extensive garden was a private table and chairs. Immediately outside street and raking meant we parked the car and left it safely for the duration of our holiday as there was excellent bus services with bus stops both ways at the end of the quiet tree lined street to places like Windermere, Bo’ness, Grassmere and Ambleside. A 15 min walk down to Bo’ness got you to plenty of activities including boat rides to Ambleside and the southern points on Windermere. In Windermere town there were several lovely cafe /bars during the day and several lovely eaters at night with a number of pubs dotted around the town. Windermere town is just a 10 mint stroll from the property and is a great place to eat and drink. Our favourite was the ‘Tapios’ restaurant serving Mediterranean tapas and a fab selection of wines and beers. Thee was also a lovely Italian and a French restaurant along with Tilly’s and several others.
The cottage is very central for everything and the owners were fantastic helping with anything you needed. Lovely lovely couple.

Great place; perfect for us.
The house is gorgeous and the garden is absolutely stunning! We mostly do day hikes, and it’s just the perfect spot for it. The cottage has three levels. You enter from the beautiful garden into the living room. From there, you can go down four stairs to the kitchen and bathroom, or up eight stairs to the bedroom. It’s beautifully decorated and has everything you need for your stay. Three groceries are within a five-to-ten-minute walk. The owners are super friendly and will answer any questions you might have.

Astounding details in this freestanding cottage behind the main house. Lots of clever touches. Full kitchen with all appliances, excellent shower/bath. Proprietors are next door and couldn't be nicer. Great location only a 5-min walk to town. Parking available out front. Very highly recommended!

オーナー : Michael Ellis
We are Ron and Val I have lived in Windermere all my life and Val, my wife is just about local, moving here when she was a teenager! We ran a local florist business in the village for about 30 years and now I spend most of my time, either in the garden or fulfilling my role as of Chairman for the Heathwaite Junior Football Club and member of the Taverners Cricket Club. Val is very happy to be retired!
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
We bought the house in 1981 as both Val and me fell in love with it. The house is beautiful Lakeland slate with a large bay window letting in loads of light to the front room. The garden was huge and covered in a mass of rhododendron buses, flower beds and trees. In the grounds was an out building, again in Lakeland stone and a large bay window, which much later became The Floss. The house is so quiet and private even though being right in the heart of Windermere with easy access to the village or a short walk to the Lake. The house was a great place to bring up our children, is enjoyed by the grandchildren and Flossy the family dog loved playing out in the garden all her life. Our daughters dog Scarlett spends plenty of time in it too chasing her much loved ball!
この宿泊施設の特徴
The benefits of staying here are vast. The gardens have become even more spectacular over the last few years, ever since retiring I enjoy many an hour digging, weeding and planting in all weathers! The amount of land surrounding the house and cottage is fantastic. There are very few houses like ours in the village which have the benefit of being so central and having the space and peace away from it all. The slate seating area adjacent to the cottage is a great vantage point for enjoying the garden, reading a good book or chatting with friends and family. It is also the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine or a Pims in the summer sun (weather permitting, it is the Lake District!)
