"The cottage was in a stunning location with lots of local walks available.The property was extremely well equipped and owners had obviously taken great care in making the most of the available space and decor was very nice.We met one of the owners who was very friendly and gave us some tips on local walks, etc.The pathway down to the cottage was a bit on the steep side but didn’t cause too many problems as there was an alternative entry available which we used with our two labradors, it was just easier that way.We had no real complaints, the description was accurate, getting in and out of the double bed was a knack which needed to be mastered. We just found the property a little too small, especially with the two larger dogs.Overall we were satisfied with our stay."

"Cottage very overpriced, which I presume is purely down to location, as set very close to the Great Langdale Valley - a very beautiful place with walks from the doorstep. Sadly the cottage is absolutely tiny, with kitchen cupboards jam-packed with unnecessary equipment leaving little room to store your own food etc. Sitting area is uncomfortable and master bed in need of replacement. The cottage is a great base for exploring such an amazing part of the Lake District, but it is sadly not a place to relax and unwind. Could also do with a good clean - lots of dog hairs and food crumbs under the "dining" table; the shower also does not get very hot."

"We have stayed in Chapel Stile or Elterwater for 15-20 years now and feel it's the most beautiful place in the Lake District. There are so many fantastic walks on the door step no matter what the weather, two welcoming pubs and a well stocked local store. We'd not consider staying anywhere else. The standard of cottages is very high and we look forward to our visits every year."

"The cottage is very well equipped with wifi, washer dryer, dishwasher. Whist it is quite small we found it fine for a family of 4 and a dog. The central location is excellent and there are some very good walks straight from the door of the cottage. We really enjoyed our stay and I would use the same place again. There is a stunning view from the front window across the fells."

"The location of the cottage is stunning and there are useful amenities (shops and pubs) close by. The cottage was warm and cosy, has been cleverly designed to fit a lot into a smallish space, and had all the facilities needed. The only downside for me was that I had to stand on a stool to reach drawers and shelves (I am 5' 4) - OK for me but may not suit everyone."
