The location was great for access to Bowness and Windermere. A very good base for a family trip to the lakes.

Great house, everything that you need and more. Great communication with host.Only suggestion was fans for the bedroom, top floor was stifling but we where in a heat wave.

Thank you for your lovely 5-star review. We’re delighted you enjoyed the cottage, found everything you needed, and appreciated the communication throughout your stay. The Lake District doesn't often experience heatwaves, and I’ll be sure to take a fan over for the top floor room. We’d be delighted to welcome you back to Lyndene in the future. Your team Debs and Tasha

What a find! Beautiful large Victorian home, with all mod cons. Totally central. Free parking, and everywhere was walkable. Pub with roaring fires 80feet away. We even took the 599 bus to Keswick for the day, only 3 and the bus stop a 2 min walk from house. Everything you could need for cooking for our large group what there, and a super large dining room. Very comfy beds, spacious rooms, and fab bathrooms. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

What a fabulous cottage in a brilliant location, close to pubs, shops, supermarkets and restaurants. Debs is a fab host and was really helpful recommending fabulous places to eat and things for us to do with our 3 year old grandaugher. The house is cosy and warm, the beds are super comfy and the house itself was spotlessly clean. We absolutely thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and hopefully will get a chance to go again, but my gut feeling is it will quickly become fully booked as it really is a fabulous place to stay. It really is a jewel in Windermere's crown. 100% recommend if you want a clean, cosy, within walking distance to windermere centre and Bowness property.We will be back!!! Xx
