A fantastic self contained apartment in the peaceful village of Ullock.Marion & John. who's house the apartment is situated in met us on arrival & made us feel welcome.The apartment has a well equipped kitchen with plenty of cupboard space, a comfy lounge/dining room, a nice hot shower & a comfy bed.The bottle of wine, tea, coffee, orange juice & box of chocolates waiting in the apartment were a generous touch that made our stay even nicer.The house is surrounded by Marion & John's beautiful garden, with plenty of outdoor seating that we had to enjoy. We loved watching the many birds from the lounge at the bird feeder & the hedgehogs at dusk. It is very peaceful.Ullock, is a 10 min drive to Loweswater & well situated for exploring the Western Lake District & easy access to the coast. The nearby village of Dean is a pleasant miles walk away, with a good pub.We'll be back to stay again

Lovely long weekend retreat

I was lucky enough to be able to stay at this property for 2 nights whilst exploring the Lakes. It was perfect, so comfortable and the hosts were so kind and welcoming. Would love to come back again soon as the place was like a little home away from home. Thank you for letting me stay! :)

We really enjoyed our time here, just wish we could have stayed longer. The apartment is comfy, cosy and welcoming and Marion and John are lovely people.The bird feeders just outside the window are inspired and much more entertaining than watching TV. We were even lucky enough to have a visit from the red squirrel which was amazing.Thank you Marion for the warm welcome and the lovely treats, we will definitely return.

My stay in Ullock was an unforgettable experience — it truly felt like visiting my grandparents’ home and stepping back into the 90s. The peaceful surroundings, vintage charm, and calm countryside atmosphere made it feel warm and familiar. I loved how quiet and relaxing the area was, perfect for morning walks and gym sessions that kept my routine going even on holiday.The house was clean, cozy, and full of character, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. It’s the kind of place that slows life down in the best way possible. I’d definitely love to return — it felt like home away from home.

A lovely stay with Marion & John

Lovely little downstairs area of cottage. Very clean and comfortable, had all facilities you’d need. Marion and John were delightful hosts, providing snacks, milk and were just upstairs if we needed anything. Very affordable compared to similar accommodation in the lakes, with Ullock being nicely located right next to the lakes but also round the corner from the beach. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Mr

Host profile image
We have lived in the village for over 40 years, and love to welcome visitors to our cosy peaceful home for their holiday, and have a wealth of local knowledge to enable you to enjoy your stay here.

Why they chose this property

We built this house ourselves, and the apartment has been available for letting for over 20 years, with many people coming back year after year to enjoy walking the fells, or just relaxing and exploring the lakes, coast, and local towns.

What makes this property unique

In a small rural village, we are just 5 miles from Cockermouth, and within easy reach of the Northern lakes, Loweswater within 4 miles, Buttermere and Crummock a short drive away. Keswick only 20 miles away. A wealth of wildlife in the extensive gardens, with a variety of birds and even red squirrels feeding just outside the window. A stream with packhorse bridge, pond and woodland path all there for you to enjoy when you arrive.
Pubs in the neighbouring villages of Dean and Branthwaite offer good food, just a short walk on warmer evenings.
We live on the premises and will be here to welcome you, and deal with any queries you may have.
