    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Gordon - Verified booking

      This was a very pleasant cottage with a lovely little enclosed garden.

      There was plenty of space for two of us plus small dog. I am sure it would have been okay for four, but six might have been a bit of a push, especially in the rather small dining room. The location in the hamlet of Rosthwaite in the beautiful Borrowdale valley is wonderful. Disappointingly, unlike many of the rental properties we have visited, there was no welcome pack, not even a couple of tea bags and a drop of milk for a cuppa after a long journey. Remember to take your own, However the property has one very big drawback, the on-site parking. Although the instructions blithely say you can park in the adjoined garage, this is in fact a VERY tight space even for our relatively compact car, with stone walls very close indeed and severely restricting turning space to get in and out. I would only recommend this for drivers who are very confident to manoeuvre their vehicle in unfamiliar and intimidating tight spaces. There is however a small car park a short distance away if you are content to park off site. This should be made clearer on the property details rather than simply promising on site parking. Sadly for us continual worry about the parking rather marred what would otherwise have been a lovely holiday.

    • Natalie - Verified booking

      A lovely, comfortable, well equipped cottage in a beautiful location.

      We have stayed at Yew Tree Cottage twice now and have thoroughly enjoyed our holiday both times. The cottage is finished to a really high standard, and is clean and very comfortable. The layout is perfect, with the back door opening into the utility room it's great for wet weather days with a space for rain coats and walking boots. The kitchen has everything you could need and the lounge / dining room is comfortable, spacious and cosy with the log burner going. The bathrooms are clean and lovely, and the bedrooms really comfy. We stayed with 4 adults and a toddler, and the nice wide stairs are great for little ones too - she had a lot of fun practicing her climbing skills! The very thoughtful card and hamper was a really nice touch too which we really appreciated. The area is just breathtaking, with lovely walks all around from the cottage and a few nice pubs nearby. We would highly recommend Yew Tree Cottage!

    • Eilidh - Verified booking

      Our stay started on a low note - it hadn’t been cleaned when we arrived after the check in time.

      The cleaners arrived half an hour later with the reason that they were delayed due to car troubles. We were then not able to go into the property until 6pm. This is understandable, but should have been communicated to us earlier in the day so we didn’t arrive and then need to wait around. The property was also not cleaned to a high standard, so we then needed to clean the kitchen and dining room. The rest of our stay was great, but we were disappointed by the start. A few things to note that we would have appreciated knowing before booking - the turning into the property is very narrow and the ground is very uneven. Our estate car only just managed. A lower car would not be able to enter it without hitting the ground. There is also not sufficient parking along the lane as the residents from cottages 1-5 all park in the area beside this property (number 6).

    • Tracy - Verified booking

      Great cottage , ideally situated for exploring the borrowdale valley.

      Parking tight , but this is covered in the advert. I found it easier to pull in tight to the garage rather than park in it. Garden enclosed and a lovely spot to enjoy a few moments of relaxation. Kitchen is well equipped but ensure you stock up on way to rosthwaite as the nearest shop is in keswick , a 20 min drive, although the flock inn does sell some essentials. 2 pubs within walking distance . Overall thwaite howe is a comfortable well equipped cottage . 2 fair sized double bed rooms and a smaller room with bunkbeds. Ideal for a young family or small group of adults. Living room comfortable with ample seating for 4- 5 adults. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at thwaite howe. Only holiday cottage I have rented where there was no welcome pack - not that this is essential but would be a nice touch .

    • Theresa - Verified booking

      Booking process was very easy with Sykes.

      I forgot to add the bed configuration on the booking so called to give this and the customer service lady couldn't have been more helpful. We had an amazing stay and felt very lucky to have secured 4 nights at a relatively late stage. Loved the welcome gifts. Cottage was very comfortable, beds were lovely (husband wants a new mattress at home now!), all very well equipped. The drying/boot room is an extremely handy space for storage. Great walks straight out of the door, very quiet at night apart from the owls. The garden is pretty dog secure as long as you have a dog that won't jump over an approx 4ft wall, we pulled the garden bench away from the wall so our hound wouldn't even consider it but if you have an escapologist for a dog then it might be a bit more tricky.
