Great location and had a lovely holiday. There was a problem with the washing machine, but that was fixed within a matter of hours with no disruption to our stay. Real credit to the owner, the call handler at cottages.com and the guys who installed a new machine.

Fantastic location. It made a great place to base our two week holiday from. Very convenient having the village shop opposite! Good choices for drinking and eating within a short walk. Plenty of great walks right from the cottage.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Braithwaite, and the weather perfect throughout. We've been coming to the Lakes for over 50 years - started out camping, progressed to B&B and then moved onto hotels and cottages - at least twice a year. Braithwaite is a beautiful part of the Lakes and with stunning views, and the cottage fitted our needs for the 4 night stay - we decided early on that we'll try and stay there again.
