Lake District Self Catering cottage, Coombe Cottage, Rosthwaite, sleeps 8

Spacious, Clean & Welcoming
Just returned from a fantastic week at Coombe Cottage. The spacious living area was enjoyed by all and gave us plenty of room to relax and unwind when not walking. The kitchen / diner is a lovely large and welcoming area too and the kitchen has all you need. Managed to do some washing there and the washer and dryer work really well. The furniture is good quality and gives the property a luxury feel to it. Definitely recommend a visit to the restaurant in the Borrowdale Hotel which is literally next door. They also have a lovely beer garden and are welcoming to non residents. There are some lovely walks from the property and also a bus stop directly outside (opposite side of the road to head to Keswick direction and just out the front of the Hotel to head to Rosthwaite). Beautiful area, would love to return.

Nice, but expensive
We stayed in the cottage for two nights either side of the Keswick Half Marathon, which four of us were running. The cottage is very nice, clean and comfortable. Kitchen well equipped, with a huge open plan lounge upstairs. The conservatory up the side of the the house was also a lovely place to sit, over-looking the garden. Downsides however are: - Its pretty expensive (£550 per night), and there are cheaper places locally which are just as good - we've already booked one of then for next year's race. - No towels were supplied which I don't think is acceptable when paying a premium rate. A very nice lady in the Borrowdale Hotel next door obligingly loaned us some, for which we were very grateful. - The drive can be a bit of a nightmare to reverse into, as the main road outside can get quite busy

Cosy Christmas at Coombe Cottage
Our family party of 7 enjoyed a memorable Christmas in this beautifully furnished and spacious property. An initial problem with the heating was quickly resolved by a phone call to the owner. Thank goodness we were warm and snug inside, since the weather was truly horrendous for most of the week! We could not fault the amenities of Coombe Cottage and the well-equipped kitchen made for hassle-free cooking. We would certainly visit again - but would hope for kinder weather next time!

Lovely homely place to stay
This beautiful cottage is a lovely home from home. It is well laid out so the living area makes the most of the amazing views over Derwent water towards Catbells. Well equipped for a family stay. I would highly recommend.
