About the host
Hosted by Host
We’re Tom and Lauren, proud locals who feel very lucky live just a stones throw from the Lake District. We’ve always loved this beautiful part of the world – from long countryside walks with our dogs, to cosy pub lunches and summer evenings by the lake. In fact, the Lakes are so special to us that we even got married at Storrs Hall, just down the road from Candy Cottage.
Sharing Candy Cottage is our way of helping others experience everything we love about this area. Whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, we hope you’ll enjoy exploring Bowness, Lake Windermere, and the wider Lakes just as much as we do.
