  The trip was delayed due to illness of one of our party and we finally arrived in the Lakes early December to be greeted by one of the worst storms for some time! In some ways this was a blessing as we stayed in the house using the fantastic facilities without any guilt of not exploring the area. A group of 5 couples had more than enough space to thoroughly enjoy our 3 nights; dining at the vast table overlooking the lake was a particular treat. The house is special - large comfortable bedrooms - all but one ensuite - with good showers and plenty of storage. The dining / kitchen area and the sitting room are especially comfortable and practical with lovely decor heightened by the Christmas decorations. An added feature is the TV room with comfortable seating and a large screen. For those more energetic the house also has a small gym, although limited equipment (Peleton feature is an unnecessary complication for a short stay). Everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed the break in such wonderfiul surroundings and would highly recommend.

  A spacious and comfortable lodge.

  A nice quiet area with good access to places of interest. Easy key collection and lots of equipment in the lodge to make the stay homely. Unfortunately the cleanliness was an issue. The floor had not be cleaned at all, within 5 minutes our socks were covered in dog hair and dirt. Never have we had to clean on arriving at a property. The floor and carpets were so dirty. There was remnants of a dog bone under the edge of the sofa and it was clear that large items had never been moved to clean. Lumps of hair and grit were hoovered up and I had to wipe all the window sills. The dust on the router had been there for weeks if not months, it was covered. Dog hair all over the leather sofa had to be cleaned before we could sit. Other issues we had were that the fire did not work, shower leaks lots of watet all over the floor in the main bathroom, you can see this is ongoing as the paint has gone brown on the skirting board. Freezer drawers all broken.

  We celebrated my Dad's 60th Birthday at this beautiful cottage.

  ..and what a fab time we all had! Firstly the cottage is lovely! Great layout and felt like home from home! So cute and quaint yet modern! The garden was lovely also - just wish we could have sat out ( weather wasn't fantastic) because there was ample room to chill and sip wine in the garden! Beds were comfy, plenty of parking, great little docking station for our 'party' and the wifi was great bonus too! We were unsure of things to do and was worried we would be too far away from things going on but just a 10 min walk got us to the train station and boat station so we spent one day at Bowness and one day at Haverthwaite station (and one day relaxing in the Lakeside pub - pricey but good) I would defo recommend booking to friends and family - such a great place to stay for time in the Lakes! Thanks

  A wonderful stay

  I have recently returned from a wonderful stay at Derwent Garden Estate. I chose this glorious house for a weekend away with some of my closest friends, May Bank Holiday being a traditional get together for us all for the past 20 consecutive years! The sumptuous house and beautiful gardens did not disappoint and provided a brilliant setting for this precious celebration of enduring friendship in a fabulous British setting. Tessa and her team were marvellous and were on hand throughout for anything we needed and oriented us when we arrived and on departure. The view from the orangery and the balcony are quite simply spectacular. Thank you to the local team for making a special weekend even more special for us. Would highly recommend.

  Bobbin Cottage was set in a lovely area, incredibly picturesque and quiet.

  Close to Lakeside where you can take a boat up to Bowness and experience stunning views, there are also local walks (the one up to the High Dam was beautiful). The cottage is just fantastic in every way. The setting, the facilities and quality of everything was just 5 star. The owners John and Lisa were so helpful and checked in with us to make sure we had everything. The log burner was amazing and heated the large lounge area really quickly although we had 3 days of largely sunny weather in late September - so lucky! Sitting in the lounge conservatory in the morning watching the birds feed outside was so therapeutic. We absolutely loved everything about Bobbin Cottage and will definitely return.
