Gosforth Holiday Cottages

Historically in Cumberland and now a part of Cumbria, the sleepy village of Gosforth has a community population of fewer than 1,500, combined with its nearest two neighbourhoods, Ponsonby and Wasdale. Just a 7-minute drive from the beach at Seascale village and close to Wast Water, there are plenty of beautiful rural sights to visit in the area. Largely still a residence for local agriculture workers, holiday cottages in Gosforth are ideally located for those seeking solitude and tranquillity.

The stone cross in the St Mary’s Churchyard is a notable attraction, thought to date back to the Viking era and standing at 14 feet, crafted from slender red sandstone. Those looking to stretch their legs can head off to the nearby Blendgale Forest and walk alongside the river to the ancient Monks Bridge on Cold Fell.

If you’re looking for a holiday cottage in Gosforth, you won’t find a better range in this handsome and historical village than available through Snaptrip. We have thousands of properties throughout the UK, all baked by our best price guarantee.

Paul - Verified booking

The cottage was very comfortable, but not very clean.

As soon as we arrived we had to vacuum up cobwebs and spider sacks that were very obvious. The kitchen was well equipped, but the freezer needed defrosting. There were more than enough towels. The hot tub was wonderful and much appreciated after a day's walking. It was close to Wasdale and the walks around that area, including Scafell Pike. The owners were friendly and there was a little orchard that we were free to pick apples and plums from. The apples were delicious. The cottage is in a farm yard with the accompanying sights, smells and sounds, which we didn't mind at all, but others may not enjoy these so much. There were a lot of flies, but that's to be expected in a farm yard and didn't bother us too much. Upstairs there are sloped ceilings in all the rooms, so beware any tall people! This cottage suited our needs as we were out walking all day and just wanted somewhere comfortable to sleep in. It wouldn't be a suitable choice for those who have young children as there is no outdoor play area. The WiFi connection was great in the morning, but a bit hit and miss in the evening. The village is within easy walking distance and the bakery has the most amazing sausage rolls and meat pies! We had great weather and enjoyed our visit to the beautiful Lake District.

The main problem was down stairs was very tired.

The three piece suite was very old, in a poor condition and uncomfortable.The dining table was made up with legs of one table and the top of another ,it was easy to catch your knees when sitting down. The crockery and cooking equipment ,baking trays ect were made up of oddments,nothing matched.There was no cupboard space to store any food stuffs, food had to be kept on a work surface This caused a problem as the work surfaces were very limited and this made it dificult to dish up a meal. There is a fridge freezer to store frozen and chilled foods.The floor is very scratched and need looking at. Up stair was in very good condition ,beds were comfortable and linen provided was good and clean. There is a height issue with low beams as the bedrooms are in the eaves. Access to the property is up a very steep incline and would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues.( Picture of accomodation does not show how steep the incline is.) The decoration through out was in good condition and the owner lives on site and is available if there any problems. The local area has very good places to eat and many nice places to visit.

We arrived at Bleng Cottages mid afternoon and the first thing we noticed was no Hot Tub.

When I contacted the owners I was told that it had been broken over the weekend and a replacement would be put in on the Tuesday. We had no prior contact from the owner to inform us of this, which would have been a nice jesture. Hot tub finally arrived o. The Wednesday so we managed to use it Wednesday night, and only for a couple of hours as it had a leak as part was broken/missing. That was it it for that. As this was one of the features that was offered, this is why we booked the cottage. The facilities in the cottage were OK, please be aware that the bedrooms are in the eaves so watch your heads. Very handy for local emenities with village about a mile away. Good pubs with decent food. On the whole we had a good and relaxing time let down only by not having the hot tub all week apart from the two hours Wednesday night. We were offered a couple of free nights but as we had work on the Sunday we weren't able to accept.

Lovely place, great location.

Not as enclosed as I thought (based on previous reviews) so was abit difficult with a toddler wanting to see the horses and then having tractors on the other side. Apple courtyard is lovely and enclosed but needs a tidy up with all the nettles. Property was lovely, would suggest a deep clean as there was a lot of mess between the sofas and flies everywhere which cannot be helped but a clean would help. Providing handwash, kitchen towels and more toilet roll would be great. Overall we had a fantastic time, hot tub was great and cleanâ¦ Lovely people around the farm aswell. Woods/ stream to the left and Seascale beach so close by! Had an amazing time! Thank you

The hot tub was fantastic.

Bed very comfortable, bedding and towels lovely and clean. Liked the area very much and, after our initial disappointment (see below) enjoyed a relaxed and fun holiday. Also had a fantastic meal at the local restaurant, The Wild Olive. Microwave hadn't been cleaned but that may be because the cleaner wasn't quite finished on our arrival. We were disappointed that there was not a usable garden, as stated in the details. The plot on the photographs no longer looks like that, the nettles are 3 ft high; it is not pretty. The dog used the area but the dog walker had to be very careful and did have nettle stings on a couple of occasions.
