About this property

This reverse-level cottage is situated in the vibrant village of Staveley on the edge of the Lake District National Park, providing a perfect base for a family holiday with excellent village amenities on the doorstep. As you step inside there are two bedrooms, a cloakroom and a wet room on the groundfloor with stairs leading to an open plan living area, a twin bedroom and a shower room. From the living area there are views down the village street to the fells beyond. Outside, there is a front enclosed courtyard and furniture where you can sit back and relax before heading out to explore this pretty corner of Cumbria. From the cottage you can easily explore the beautiful Kentmere valley both on foot or bicycle with routes including the Kentmere Horseshoe. The climb up Reston Scar, although steep, will reward you with beautiful views across the South Lakes. Just a stone’s throw away is Staveley Mill Yard which has a brewery, bicycle shop, a cookery school, artisan bakers and a café. There is also an excellent village pub – so it is possible you may arrive here and never move your car as everything is literally on hand. A visit to Lake Windermere is a must and this beautiful lake is just 5 miles away. From Bowness-on-Windermere you can hop on board the Windermere Steamer and cruise up the lake to the popular Lakeland town of Ambleside at the head of the lake or down to Lakeside and visit the Aquarian of the Lakes. This lovely holiday cottage makes a great base for a super, family holiday.

Staveley is situated on the eastern fringes of the Lake District National Park and offers superb access to the whole region. Kentmere Valley is just a short walk away and with the River Kent tumbling its way through the valley to Staveley, it is very popular with mountain bikers and walkers alike. Staveley Mill Yard is a former wood turning mill, which is now a thriving tourist attraction with cycle hire and outdoor shops, artisan bakery, brewery and the renowned Wilf's Cafe. This complements the excellent range of amenities in the village, which include a variety of shops, two village pubs, craft shops, a children's playground, a regular bus service and a railway station.

    Well equipped, very clean, comfortable and well situated. Excellent fish & chips shop very near by, the Eagle & Child Pub also close by is recommended, very good food and pleasant old fashion premises. Jakanori is also well situated distance wise as from Windermere, under 10 minutes by car and the big plus being the availability of a bus service . All in all we had a most enjoyable stay at Jakanori and hope it will be available again for our next trip to the Lake District.

  • Anne

    Also as from previous guests the downstairs bedrooms smell a bit damp. Having said that know what to expect as 3rd.visit to Jakanori . Love the convenient situation the village shops, the surrounding area and if you don’t want to use the car the bus stop is just round the corner!

  • Carolyn

    Comfortable, clean, dog-friendly cottage, great location and perfect base for exploring the Lakes. Hawkshead Brewery, Wilf's, More bakery, Duffins, Blind Chocolatier, and the fantastic chippy are all reasons why we keep coming back. Will definitely book again soon.
