Three Mile House Reviews

Emily
Perfect spot for exploring nearby sightsand we enjoyed a lovely family stay in this cosy cottage.
Sarah
The house suited our big family of 10 perfectly! The kitchen was a bit tight for space when cooking, but it had everything we needed. The shared upstairs bathroom with six adults was a bit of a hassle, but overall, it was a good stay.
Emma
We had a lovely stay and the house comfortably fit all 10 of us, which was perfect. The hot tub was definitely a highlight after busy days out. The kitchen was well-equipped with plenty of glasses and utensils, so no worries there. The outdoor space looked a bit tired, but since the weather was a bit rubbish, we didn’t get to enjoy it much. The sunroom was a peaceful spot to unwind in the evenings. Overall, a good break!
Emma
We really enjoyed our stay at Three Mile House! The location couldn't have been betterand the house had everything we needed. Our group included a couple of people with special needsand they were looked after incredibly well. Overall, it was a lovely family getaway with some great memories made!
James
Really enjoyed our stay, the house was superb!
Emma
We had a fantastic weekend with 10 adults celebrating a birthday. The place was super spacious and perfect for relaxing together. Bathrooms and kitchen were spotless and well stocked - really appreciated that. We hired a chefand he had everything he needed, which was a bonus. Parking for five cars was no problemand there’s even an outside tap for rinsing dogs. Plenty of fresh towels and comfy beds made our stay even better. Would definitely come back!
James
This place is super comfy with everything you need. Perfect spot for exploring Kendal, Sedbergh, Kirby Lonsdale, the Lake Districtand the Dales easily. We loved it!
Emma
We had such a lovely stay at Three Mile House! The location in the South Lakes is perfectand the house itself was super cosy. The owner was really responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. Unlike other places that claim to sleep 8+ but lack enough comfy seats, this place had plenty for everyone to relax. Definitely recommend it for a nice break!
Clara
This house is just fabulous for a holiday! There are beautiful walks right on your doorstep and it’s super easy to get to local areas by car. It really has everything you need, plus there’s a hot tub outsideand the outside area is perfect for BBQs and family get togethers. It's just brilliant!
Kate
We reckon it’s really important to ensure the property has a good deep clean before guests arrive. It’s not enough to just vacuum without tackling the corners or getting rid of cobwebs and flies. Other than that, we had a lovely holiday!
Emma
We had a perfect stay for our big family gathering! The house is beautiful and comfortableand it sits right on the edge of the Lake District and Yorkshire dales. It was such a lovely experienceand we really enjoyed meeting the owner, Mel.
Emma
What a beautifully comfortable and thoughtfully furnished cottage! It has everything you could possibly need for a fantastic holiday. We especially loved the hot tub and the amazing bathrooms!
Emily
The Farmhouse was incredibly comfortable, clean and well equipped. It's in a wonderful peaceful location with easy access to loads of walks and just a short drive to Kendal, Sedbergh and Kirby Lonsdale. Absolutely superb!
Sarah
This is a fabulous home from home and my sister and I had a wonderful quiet relaxing week here, despite the rain. The owner is warm and welcoming and couldn't be more helpful. You are a short drive to most places but honestly with such character, charm and views you really don’t need to.
Emily
What a fantastic house! It had everything we needed and was just perfect for our stay. The location is stunning, really peaceful and secluded, yet still close enough to Kirkby Lonsdale by car. We’d definitely recommend it!
Tom
What a lovely house, tucked away in a really peaceful spot. Those log fires are fantastic and the hot tub is just perfect for relaxing! It’s really well equipped and our host was super helpful.
David
We honestly can’t think of anything that would improve the quality of our stay. The accommodation is absolutely fantastic! It’s lovely and warm, with extremely comfortable beds and a fabulous kitchen that has everything you need for a big family gathering. Plus, it’s just great to be able to take our dog along. The owner was super quick in replying to any requests and really helpful in resolving any issues. Fabulous house!
Tom
This property is stunning and has everything you need! It’s also in a great spot for tackling both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. We had a fantastic week there.

Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH

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.

Happy Mount Park has attractions for the whole family including several play areas, a miniature railway, crazy golf, putting green and trampolines, there is also a paddling pool where the little ones can splash around in the summer and a café where the adults can relax with a drink. During the summer months and especially during school holidays live music can often be enjoyed.
Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 18 Miles
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. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 21 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  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.
South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 24 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.

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 26 Miles
Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
