Watermead Reviews

Matthew

Really lovely property that offers easy access to Lake Windermere and the surrounding villages. The property is well equipped, spacious and offers all modern amenities you would expect. Thank you for a fantastic week, we will be back!

Ceri

Beautiful house and location. Beds comfy. Sociable kitchen space, well equipped. Enjoyed watching the birds and other wildlife and also the jets blasting overhead! Shame the pub in walking distance is a bit grim.

Dave

Great Location, Beautiful house. Perfect place for R&R.

Sharon

Just WOW! What a fantastic property. Stayed there with my family, there was 8 of us and it is lovely and spacious for everyone. Brilliant location for everywhere, however you feel like your miles away as the ground as so big and beautiful. It just felt like home from home and we were all sad to leave. We had our 2 dogs with us too and they lived th e freedom as its all fenced in and very secure. My sons all have paddle boards and it is so near to the lake for this. Wouldnt hesitate to go back.

Helen

This is a wonderful house for family gatherings and celebrations -no expense has been spared in making it the perfect place to relax in real luxury! We particularly loved the fabulous well equipped spacious kitchen with AGA. Lovely bed linen and towels which make such a difference. The huge garden is quite stunning with azaleas and rhododendrons. W e loved the big lawn for childrens games and fabulous decking on different levels for the lake views. A peaceful haven! 5 stars for everything!!

Joanna

Beautiful house and gardens. Works really well for a large group, lots of space. Very well equipped and nice touches eg dog biscuts, goodie basket . Views from the rear decking area lovely. Would totally recommend.

Annette

Beautiful house in a superb position. Absolutely immaculate with lots of extra touches to make the stay much easier and comfortable. Highly recommend for a luxury staycation.

bryan

Great location lovely house and gardens. Perfect for family get together

Kenneth

Beautifully presented, very well equipped traditional large lakeside house in a quiet, beautiful area of Windermere. Watch out for the badger that comes to hoover up the bird food around the bird feeder in the back garden! It helps if you are used to cooking on an Aga. All in all we had a superb week! Would come again anytime.

Heather

Absolutely gorgeous, light and roomy house, in a wonderful position near the lake with a raised decking area with fabulous views. The house was spotless, very well equipped, and lovely comfortable beds. The gardens are lovely, we were fascinated by the different birds visiting the feeders. The hot tub was an added bonus, very relaxing after days ou t, there is plenty to see and do in the local area. There is also a lovely friendly pub just 10 minutes walk away. Would definitely recommend.

Fiona

Fabulous views of lake from bedrooms and garden. Well equipped, spacious, comfortable house, both inside and out. Luxury beds and bedding. We loved the hot tub too. Good situation to local shops, amenities and countryside. Really enjoyed our week at Watermead with the family.

Simon

A great house for a family get-together after 2 years of separation. We travelled from Singapore and met up with family from the Manchester area and could not have wished for a better place for a reunion! Really great house, big enough not to be on top of one another and lovely kitchen /dining room for a special New Years Eve dinner. Thank you!

Joanne

A fantastic house in an superb location. My family and I enjoyed a fabulous Christmas here and hope stay again. The owners of the house were most accommodating and we highly recommend staying here.

Eleanor

A beautiful home with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The views are stunning! Having been let down two days before our stay with another cottage, we were so grateful this was available and the owners accepted our booking!

Angela

Great house and garden. A real home from home with everything you need. Fabulous location. Wed love to come back in the warmer weather.

Alana

Just one more thing, an electric key fob to operate the entrance gate would be helpful.

Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public.

For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families. Corporate groups are also well catered for.

Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction. With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun. You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes. Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money. There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.

South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU

about 18 Miles

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals. Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area. Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos. At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed. Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.

Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD

about 23 Miles

We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look". Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project. The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish! Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
