Rose Cottage Reviews

Yvette
Rose cottage was a delight every thing was well maintained and very clean. The only criticism I can find is that the water pressure to the shower was very poor, I would recommend Rose cottage and look forward to arranging another visit in the future
We loved our stay here! The photos havent been updated so it was such a nice surprise to see the huge bed in the main bedroom and also the new sofas. It had everything we needed, the views were stunning and we would definitely recommend. The pictures dont do it justice.
Amazing little cottage! Very clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend
Andrew
Our second visit and still a lovely well appointed property in an idyllic area. We were not blessed with the best weather obviously an expected occurrence in the Lake District but were still able to keep children and adults occupied.
Rose cottage was perfect. It was so clean and well equipped, much more that I've experienced at previous locations. There was milk, tea and coffee, bread and biscuits when we arrived which was so welcome. Beautiful garden but only accessible via steps which was fine for us. The hot tub was clean and a great addition to the stay. A great location, very high standard, cannot recommend this cottage enough!
Amazing cottage. Had everything you needed and catered for 6 people very well. Lovely location and the hot tub was brilliant. Perfect stay and would definitely recommend. Hosts were lovely and welcoming. Very clean property. About a 20 minute drive to Coniston water which was fab for paddle boarding. Would stay again!!
Great place to stay, wonderful views. Clean comfortable cottage that had everything we needed and the welcome package was perfect. Will definitely stay there again.
Michelle
This cottage is truely stunning, the views are amazing and the interior has been so tastefully decorated. Beds super comfy, just being tall the low ceilings werent ideal but its a cottage so thats part of charm. Fresh eggs just outside to buy and off road parking a bonus. Only issues for us was water pressure disappeared on 3rd day, the location is just so remote so having to drives miles for any kind of shop or bigger village town was very annoying. Roads are deadly single tracks for miles and miles. Also would be good to have or pay for a welcome pack had this in other cottages as no milk etc after travelling hours to then drive 9 miles to get milk was not good. Lastly a small welcome note to list cottage owner numbers and local recommendations is always a nice touch. Local village pub was lovely but just again super pricey! No signal for phones which yes is nice but we had a child on holiday and a sick relative so couldnt call or text anyone but thats just maybe us being too used to convience. The cottage and hot tub views 1010.
A most enjoyable weekend! Rose cottage is charming and very beautiful. Everything one can think of is supplied! Clean and extremely comfortable! The only problem for us was no direct access onto the secure garden. Being listed as dog friendly we took this to mean our dogs would be able to access the garden whenever nature called! Unfortunately, the access is only via the front door through an open patio garden and up rather steep steps and the wire fencing was large enough for our miniature pincher's to escape so they had to be leashed at all times.
Lovely to be back and the recent updates are lovely. The new bed and sofas are super comfortable! Still reckon you have one of the best hot tub views in the UK. A lovely week and the Blacksmiths Arma continued to deliver lovely food.
Andrew
A wonderful cottage for a weekend getaway. Very comfortable, well equipped, and in very picturesque surroundings which would have been stunning except for the Lake District weather! Didnt stop us getting in the hottub though, which we enjoyed. The Blacksmiths Arms 10 minutes down the lane is outstanding for food, but a booking for a table is a must. Will certainly look to book Rose Cottage again for sure, it was pretty much perfect.
Helene
We had a lovely stay at Rose Cottage. It is a beautiful, peaceful location, perfectly clean, great amenities, such as washer, dryer and dishwasher. The owners are friendly and helpful. Situated directly next to a working farm, my toddler enjoyed watching the coming and going of sheep and tractors, but this is not at all noticeable when inside the cottage, its very private and quiet which is lovely as well. Hot tub is a lovely addition and the views are amazing. Pub a short walk down the lane is cosy and makes amazing food with veggie and vegan options catered for as well! Would book this cottage again in the future.
Beautiful property Quite remote, but suited us, drove past it, difficult to spot from direction of main road. Should of took more groceriesdrinks with us. Well kept property well furnished and equipped Lovely log burner which was ready to start, slight problem as only 1 match which went out before lighting, gas lighter maybe easier? Enough wood and coal supplied for 23 days which was good Great views from hot tub Would definitely stay there again when going to area
Jennie
Lovely cottage in a quiet location. View from hot tub is amazing and house has everything you need. Was difficult to find in the dark.. especially as satnav postcode does not take you to cottage...and depends on your approach..we came down hill towards it and could not see cottage as tucked away to the left behind a wall! People in blacksmiths arms are very friendly and helpful ..which is where satnav takes you but do not take your car down the road in front of the pub as you may get stuck!! Overall a lovely stay and now we know how to find it would definitely recommend to others!!
Lovely location, lovely people, great cottage
Beautiful property, clean and warm and lovely hosts, we had a wonderful time and will be back. Thank you!
Rose Cottage is a lovely home from home, its spotlessly clean and the beds are sooooo comfortable its difficult to drag yourself out of them to explore the beautiful Eskdale and Duddon Valleys. Views from the hot tub are stunning. We will definitely go back. The Blacksmiths Arms pub which is a few minutes walk away is excellent too.
A lovely 2 night stay here. Very remote but that is what we were hoping for. Very easy to access Coniston for paddle boarding. A nice pub along the road to the right about 5 minutes away. Lovely, picturesque setting. Hot tub was great for our stay and enjoyed by all. Dog friendly. High chair and booster seat available for dining chair. Travel cot was much appreciated too. Parking for 2 vehicles. Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues wanting to access the garden frequently as the steps are quiet steep. There is a handrail. Not a problem for our party and the views from up there were amazing! A beautiful country cottage. Thank you
The cottage was fantastic, especially the beds which were very comfy and the hot tub! ! Great location to spend a week unwinding with the family.
Tenzin
Very nice cottage and location. Views are unreal from the hot tub. First cottage weve been to that only had 2 slots which was the only small thing that can be pointed out taking into account it sleeps 6 people. We arrived later than the scheduled check in and someone was doing their personal washing which was a little bit strange but seemed a nice guy. Possibly the owner or a relative. Would recommend this cottage.
Benjamin
First class experience as always. Owners couldn't have been more helpful. We'll be back.
Fantastic holiday with Rose Cottage as a base. ....view from hot tub is amazing, cottage has everything you need, whole family loved it including 2 dogs.....if you want a relaxing place to use a base then I thoroughly recommend Rose cottage....
Kerry-ann
Rose cottage was beautiful, perfect family holiday. The kitchen well stocked with everything we could possibly need. All the rooms are a good size and beds very comfortable. The landscape is stunning, plenty of beautiful walks. Local pub charming and friendly too. Owner close by, helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend
My second visit and I will definitely be back if pricing can be kept around the 500 level I know normally it starts higher and is sometimes reduced. Location is remote, which for me is a big plus. Absolutely idyllic and the hot tub for star gazing is the clincher for me. Beds very comfortable. Just be aware the back bedroom with its sloping ceiling is not ideal for adults as it is very easy to bump your head on the two beams. I know they are there but still managed it three times, once causing a cutbump, so moved into the front double when my friend left on the Tuesday. Well equipped kitchen and very comfortable lounge with great woodburner.
Stephen

Fantastic cottage in a very rural setting. Comfortable and spacious. Gorgeous private garden with hot tub overlooking views of the hills.
Judith
The cottage was absolutely spotless, comfortable, warm and very well equipped. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Its in a wonderful location and very peaceful with good walks. The enclosed garden was a bonus for dogs and the hot tub was great fun. We would definitely go again.
Second time at Rose Cottage , fabulous stay once again . Spotlessly clean , beautiful soft white bedding and lovely pillows . So relaxing . A great location for accessing the Lake District . Dogs love it too . Such a lovely friendly family who own the cottage . We have booked again we love it so much . Blacksmiths Arms just down the road for fabulous food.
Samantha
Rose Cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Situated on a country lane with amazing views & was so relaxing not having to hear any traffic. Loved the wood burner which we used every night & has great WiFi connection. Had a meal at the Blacksmiths Arms after reading previous reviews & wasnt disappointed, the food was excellent. Will definitely return.
Philip
Fantastic cottage set on a working farm, we stayed for 4 days in March, very lucky with the weather, great for walking, with a pub just down the road serving wonderful food advise to book and finally the views when sitting in the hot tub. Would i come back again ? Definitely.
Fabulous cottage , amazing views from hot tub . Ideal for our 2 dogs. Great base to explore the Lake District from . The Blacksmiths arms is great for food and only a 5 min walk down the road . The Harrison family are very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be going back in the future.
Rose Cottage was perfect no complaints from me or my family, we had a very relaxing break and in spite of the mixed weather and fuel petrol & diesel situation we still got around and a lovely cottage to return home too in the evenings, couldn't ask for more. Neighbours was very friendly too. The farmers next door sell very tasty eggs too a good way to start the day.
Great spot , nice quiet picturesque valley, an easy reach to the central areas of the Lake District if that's what you fancy 2045 minutes away. Pleasant small town 510 minutes drive away great 45 minute walk through the local countryside and a great little pub 5 minutes walk down the hill. Interesting fells in walking distance with a couple of summits to climb. I could have spent the whole week just investigating the local area. Very relaxing. Friendly hosts working the small hill side farm next door. Hope to come back one day. Thanks
