A perfect location

The property is beautiful and immaculately kept - plenty of amenities in the property to keep everyone occupied during down time and the location is absolutely perfect, it's just outside of the hustle and bustle of the local towns but perfectly situated for access to all areas and National Trust days out.

Very enjoyable holiday stay for all the family & Eddie the dog

A missing remote control box was quickly replaced. Upon arrival the garden was very weedy which the gardener cleared mid-week. Maybe needs to be done more frequently in future. The property was very comfortable, well equipped for all our needs & central to all areas of the Lake District

Lovely cottage in beautiful part of the Lakes

We had a lovely weekend at Rose Barn cottage, which we found to be very comfortable and well appointed. We were very impressed with all aspects of the booking procedures, with a high attention to detail and information provided.

A fantastic mini break in a lovely property.

We booked Rose Barn at short notice through Tarn & Fell Escapes Ltd. A very easy process and we also received a call to ensure we had received our welcome pack which was a nice touch. The property we rented was a lovely converted barn not far from Windermere. It contained everything we needed for our mini break, in excellent condition, lovely furnishings and most importantly it was very clean. There was a great local friendly pub within a 5 minute walk which served good food and shops were about 5 minutes by car. Highly recommended - thanks for a great time.

A Perfect Stay

Not sure how long it is since this barn was renovated, but it is in beautiful condition, ideally situated in a quiet area and in wonderful condition. Spotlessly clean on arrival, it has everything you will need to make your holiday stay an enjoyable one. Would absolutely think about booking this accommodation again if looking to stay in this area.

Fantastic holiday!

We loved our holiday at Rose Cottage, Hawkshead. The location was fab and it was very comfortable for us and our dogs. Customer service at Tarns and Fells were very efficient and helpful when we thought we might need to change our plans. We hope to be back!

Lovely accomodation

A really lovely apartment in this barn conversion. Surrounding grounds are immaculately maintained and the apartment was spotless, well finished and comfortable. A real pleasure to stay here. Well located in a general sense, although the three miles of road from Ambleside is a little slow and twisty...but that The Lakes for you! Overall, a great place to stay.

Rose Bank

We had a great stay at Rose Bank. The property itself was lovely and exactly as the pictures. The beds were comfy, kitchen well equipped, and lounge area cosy and plenty room for us all. The location is just outside Hawkshead, a great base to explore the local area.

Well appointed cottage

A well appointed cottage in a quiet location about a mile out of Hawkshead and not far from Grizedale Forest. Comfortable bedrooms and well equipped kitchen. Sitting area would feel cozier with some blinds or curtains. Overall I would recommend and would stay again.

A lovely spacious cottage

Really clean, well equipped and well maintained. Bedroom on top floor very nice. Only reason I didn’t give 5 for comfort is the lounge area is pretty basic compared to the rest of the cottage but we had amazing weather so sat in the lovely little garden. We really enjoyed our stay - thank you.

Great cottage

We had a lovely holiday at Rose Barn. We appreciated the little extra such as toys and games for the children. The kitchen was equipped with high quality pots and pans that did not stick! Everything worked well. Very relaxing for parents and grandparents and exciting for children. This was one of the best equipped property we have rented.

Excellent cottage for a stay in the south Lakes

Rose Barn was a lovely place to stay for our short break in the Lakes. It was perfectly located, just north of the village of Hawkshead and within close distance of Grizedale forest. Ross was extremely pro active with regular emails to confirm our booking and he rang us a few days before the trip to check we had all we needed. The accommodation was exactly as we expected it, very clean and extremely welcoming. Ross also recommended local places for us to eat and visit. I would highly recommend Rose Barn for a family or small group visit and would most certainly stay there again.

July 2026

We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider coming back one day. Only negative feedback is below: - The milk left was rancid when we went to have it. It was well in date, but I wonder if it had been left out in the sun or something. It might be worth considering this for future guests in case a similar thing happens. - Note that the travel cot was not left where indicated on your email. We arrived very late and had to search the rest of the house to find it. - Also note that your email said the travel cot didn't have bedding but didn't mention about not having a mattress. I can see it was in the info book in the house but it was too late for us then Thanks for a great stay though

Very enjoyable stay

We stayed at Rose Barn for one week in July. The cottage is situated in a good location between Hawkshead and Outgate. There is a path running in a field next to the road that leads to the Outgate Inn without having to walk on the road although it wasn't obvious to find. The cottage is a good size and is plenty big enough for six people to stay, It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Ross from Tarn & Fell was brilliant. Very responsive before, during and after our stay. He went above and beyond to address our requests and was a delight to deal with. I would definitely recommend Tarn & Fell as a letting agency.

Wonderful Week Away

We had such a wonderful week away in Rose Barn. The little touches like Halloween sweets on the children’s beds and milk in the fridge, were so thoughtful. The house was very well equipped and we would highly recommend and stay again. Great location with lots of walks from the doorstep. The only slight issue we had was with the car parking, as we had two big 4x4, we couldn’t both fit in the allocated space together and allow for space for another car to pass. Luckily there was another agreed space just up the road which we used everyday.

Comfortable stay

Excellent cottage, well equiped, comfortable and in a good location. We think there is a wasp nest in the rest wall of the house, as wasps are getting into the upstairs bedroom when windows were closed. Also suggest moving kitchen crockery from the cupboard under the stairs, which is difficult to access. There is space in the kitchen, although a couple of additional wall cupboards would help. Just a suggestion.

Lovely Home

we have enjoyed our fortnight at Rose barn. Although for many people the weather has been difficult for Tim and I it’s been good… we are not sun lovers! A small addition to the kitchen equipment might be useful. A small sharp peeling knife would have been a great asset other than that the kitchen is extremely well equipped as is the rest of the home.

A wonderful character property between Hawkshead & Outgate

We recently had a week in the Hawkshead area with a group of walking friends. As we were a fairly large group I ended up booking 3 cottages. Rose Barn is a 3 bedroom property which comfotably accommodates 6 people. It has been tastefully and comfortably furnished. The upstairs en suite master bedroom is particuraly lovely as it is spacious, modern and furnished with a couple of chairs for relaxing with a book, partcularly welcome if you wish to have some quiet "me" time. The other 2 bedrooms share a bathroom but are also very comfortable and tastefully furnished. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a comfortable open plan lounge/dining area for relaxation. Pre- dinner drinks or afternoon tea can be enjoyed round the outside table in the courtyard.
