    Enjoy your holiday your way with Lake District holiday cottages

    It's hard to do the Lake District justice, using nothing more than words.

    Seeing lush green hills roll out into the distance, miles further than the eye can see. Watching the sun bounce playfully across the crystal waters of Lake Windermere, as the smell of dew drops fills the air. Listening, as all around, an array of wildlife, from red squirrels to golden eagles, grey seals to red deer, wake to another beautiful morning and head about their day in the national park.

    A holiday in the Lake District boasts more than just stunning natural scenery. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is also rich in culture and history, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a varied and exciting break.

    From picturesque villages steeped in literary history and home to the likes of William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter to bustling market towns with their museums and picturesque streets, there is plenty to explore on your Lake District holiday beyond its breathtaking natural landscapes, dazzling lakes and spectacular scenery.

    To complete your trip, base yourself in one of our gorgeous Lake District self-catering cottages. Each one has been hand-selected to ensure you get the holiday you deserve. Take a look through our huge selection, and let's start planning your dream break in the Lakes.

    Why choose a Lake District weekend break or staycation?

    If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, then a trip to the Lake District could be just what you're looking for.

    Picture idyllic towns and villages surrounded by spectacular scenery, mirror-like lakes glistening in the sun, dramatic waterfalls thundering down lush green valleys, and majestic peaks around every turn.

    The UNESCO World Heritage site is a dream come true for nature lovers, and the lakes are the main attraction. Windermere, Ullswater, and Coniston Water are just a few of the incredible lakes, with many of them offering boat trips and a variety of walks.

    The area's name is a little deceiving, as there are also countless dramatic peaks and mountains in the Lake District. Scafell Pike is England's highest peak, and you can climb it if you're feeling up to the challenge. Or why not scale the beautiful rugged fells at Great Langdale or Helvellyn?

    One of our favourite Lake District towns is Keswick, which has a brilliant location for exploring the beauty of the area.

    The town is full of charm and character, with plenty of cafes, tearooms, ancient inns and pubs, shops, and a relaxed atmosphere. Within easy reach of Keswick, you'll find walks to Bowder Stone and Derwentwater, as well as the Coledale Peaks, which are a great choice if you're looking for a more challenging hike. Hop on a boat trip and explore Lake Derwentwater, or take it easy in the town and have fun at top attractions such as Puzzling Place and the famous Pencil Museum.

    Another must-visit destination in the Lake District is Cumbria, home to the Lake District National Park.

    Cumbria also includes part of the North Pennines and the Yorkshire Dales, so you have lots of options of where to spend your days. There are six districts in Cumbria, including Carlisle, Barrow-in-Furness, and Eden. Make sure you visit the pretty village of Windermere and walk along the beautiful lake. You can immerse yourself in history and see some of the earliest stone circles in the UK, including the Castlerigg Stone Circle and the Swinside Stone Circle.

    For literary fans, head to Beatrix Potter's farmhouse in Hill Top and discover more about her animal characters at The World of Beatrix Potter. You can also marvel at the views and scenery that inspired poet William Wordsworth and see his house and museum located next to Grasmere.

    With so much to see and do in this magical destination, staying in one of our Lake District holiday cottages provides the perfect base to discover all the natural beauty and fun attractions it has to offer.

    Choose from hundreds of beautiful Lake District holiday rentals

    With so many incredible attractions on offer, choosing which Lake District holiday cottage to stay in might be a bit of a challenge. Luckily, we have something for everyone and every occasion. So, whether you're going on holiday with friends, family, or that special someone, you'll find the perfect accommodation to suit your needs.

    From stunning rustic stone-built cottages to sleek modern holiday homes, whatever you're after, we'll help you find the ideal place to stay for your holiday. Our range of Lake District cottages offers all your favourite features and everything you'd want, from private parking and stunning scenery to a private garden and space for the whole family.

    If you're on the hunt for something a little more specific, use the filters and search preferences to find dog-friendly cottages, cottages with hot tubs or swimming pools, gorgeous self-catering options overlooking lakes, or holiday cottages just a short drive away from historic towns and the great outdoors.

    Why book your Lake District accommodation with Snaptrip?

    At Snaptrip, we know how important holidays are. They're a chance to escape the daily grind, breathe the fresh air, say goodbye to the stresses of everyday life, and spend quality time with the ones you love most.

    That's why we've scoured the Lake District to find the best self-catering accommodations, so you can feel confident that you'll find your dream home away from home. From ancient cottages in Cumbria overlooking streams to spacious barn conversions in Keswick surrounded by nature, we have just what you need to make your holiday one to remember.

    Our friendly customer service team can help you determine which of our Lake District accommodations would be best for your needs, where to go, places to visit, and much more, so all you need to do is choose your ideal holiday home and get packing!

    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Gail - Verified booking

      Extremely disappointed in the cleanliness of the property.

      It is supposed to be thoroughly cleaned in line with COVID but it was definitely not. My daughter and I had to clean the kitchen for us to use it - definitely not the standard I would expect. The house sleeps 8 people and we brought quite a lot of food with is - the fridge was nowhere near suitable, far too small. The microwave hadn’t been cleaned either with food residue stuck to the roof! There were only 7 dessert/cereal dishes too! The drawers in the bedrooms haven’t seen a duster for months! The bannister rail was filthy. We had two 80+ year olds in the party and nowhere in the property description does it state it is a steep hill of approximately 500 meters up to the property from Bowness. The description doesn’t mention the ‘access only’ driveway and the awkwardness of parking 2 big cars. There is only 1 standard outdoor bin for all rubbish which again isn’t really enough. The plumbing is noisy and requires attention it reverberates through the house and we are still trying to find the Jack and Jill bathroom!!! We go on a self catering family holiday every year and the only time we have had issues with the property is on the 2 holidays booked through yourselves in the Lake District - makes it hard for us to recommend to others. On the plus side the location for those who are able and fit and love the outdoors is fantastic. All in all the property just needs a good clean, a bit more attention to detail and some TLC and it would be fantastic.

    • Charisse - Verified booking

      Booked last min for couples, for a 50th birthday celebration.

      A few days before we were due to arrive I reviewed our booking to ask some questions on what equipment was in the kitchen and it was the first time I saw some negative reviews - which did concern me. However, we found no issues with the property and it was perfect for this occasion. Its a bit dated but that just added to the charm of the house. Great location, even if its up hill on the way home. All the rooms were big and there was enough utensils in the kitchen. The fridge is only a standard size, so people need to be aware if they are a large group and going for more than a couple of days. We bought an electric cool box with us which helped with 7 adults (kept the fizz cold). The showers were lovely and powerful as well. Would suggest using the boot room to come and go as the front door was hard to open. The only complaints would be that the twin room that can be converted to a king was not make up in advance, even though we had requested this and it was also noted on our booking, but someone did come the following morning to do this, so it was no big deal. Bring toilet roll as there was only 1 roll in each toilet so we did have to buy a pack which we did not expect to do - but that was it - all in all it was a great house and we would come again (just wish we could bring the dog - but its no pets).

    • Green Party - Verified booking

      My children and I stayed at the house a couple of times over the summer holidays and we would definitely stay again.

      The house was decorated and furnished to a very high standard. There was plenty of space for everyone, including a lovely big living kitchen/dining area as well as two other separate living rooms. The kitchen had everything we needed and the bedrooms were very roomy. The bathrooms were all very luxurious, with special mention for the en-suite to the master bedroom including its amazing giant bath and lovely steam room. There was good outside space to enjoy the weather and the kids enjoyed playing in the garden while the adults relaxed with a glass of wine. The location was excellent – nice and peaceful=but within walking distance of the little town centre (although the return walk was harder as the house is located at the top of a bank). The town centre itself has lots of little restaurants, bars, shops and supermarkets (including an M&S food). There was also a little park a short walk away with lovely views over the hills, which the children enjoyed. There are plenty of tourist attractions within a reasonable drive too, including Lowther Castle (which is also recommended) and Ullswater lake. All in all, I’d recommend this to others and already looking at dates for our next trip

    • Andrew - Verified booking

      The electric wall heaters in the lounge were controlled by the owner on her mobile phone.

      She kept turning the temperature down on them and sometimes off completely. We had to telephone her numerous times and ask her to turn the heating on or up, because the room was freezing. It was snowing outside when we were staying there. The Lake District can still be extremely cold even in the summer. The broadband service was so erratic and slow it would not allow Netflix or iPlayer to operate, so the tv was useless. We ended up using our own Vodafone data for the internet. The amount of stairs you have to climb from the front door up to the bedroom is 28, which is even a struggle for someone who is fairly fit. They provided us with one small bath and hand towel each for two weeks holiday, which is really penny-pinching, considering that there is no washing machine in the apartment to wash laundry. The property comes with an allocated parking space, which is ideal in the centre of Windermere. The apartment is located in the centre of Windermere, with shops, restaurants and pubs right on your doorstep. The lounge and bedrooms were decorated to a good standard with very nice furnishings. The kitchen was well equipped with everything required for cooking and eating.

    • Pamela - Verified booking

      The directions should be updated.

      “Cinderella Me” is now “Lakeland Retreats” and Morrison’s is now Sainsbury’s. I drove around the one way system 3 or 4 times before I spotted the entrance to College Court! The accommodation itself was lovely - comfortable and clean, well equipped and excellent location. Maybe not suitable for young families due to the internal staircases and cream sofas! The provision of only one parking space could be an issue for some guests because the only option was to park on the street and there are parking restrictions between 9am and 6pm. I had a friend stay for one night. She moved her car into one of the empty spaces in college court for 5-10 minutes to unload and immediately one of the permanent residents came out to tell her she couldn’t park there. The same happened when she did the same to pack the car. Also, it might be useful for guests to be aware that if you wish to eat out in Windermere, you will need to book well in advance! I tried to make reservations a week before our trip at the beginning of September and was told by more than one that they were fully booked until mid-October. Takeaway was difficult too, with two Chinese restaurants closed.
