Property code: 88023

A well-appointed property, which is perfect for a group getaway in the Lake District. Tastefully styled interiors give a feeling of calm while bringing the traditional cottage a welcoming, contemporary feel. With four bedrooms sleeping up to eight people, there’s plenty of space for the entire family or many friends without anyone feeling cramped.

As you enter the property, you step into a welcoming hallway which leads to the lounge. It has views across the garden, or you could relax on the sofa while watching a movie on the TV or even play a game on the Xbox. The wood burner, for chillier times, can help warm everyone after a long day out exploring the landscapes. Across the hallway is the kitchen which is a fantastic, sociable space with everything you need to prepare your meals while away. The dining area is big enough to fit all guests, while the handy utility room off the kitchen area keeps laundry away and out of sight. If you bring bikes or other large pieces of equipment, there’s storage here to lock it away. Finally, on this floor, is a quaint twin bedroom and a shower room providing a handy downstairs WC. Up the stairs are three more bedrooms for guests. Two are king-size, while the final bedroom is a twin. All these rooms have garden views and wall-mounted TVs. The upstairs bathroom completes the accommodation. Outside, the garden benefits from the sun most of the day and it’s a brilliant spot for unwinding. Stargazing is fantastic here on a clear night, or you can simply enjoy a morning coffee while the rest of your party wake-up slowly.

Enjoyed a winter weekend with friends here in this beautiful house. We made ourselves very cosy in the living room, used the log burner and had everything we needed in the kitchen to keep ourselves well fed. We liked the house decor and appreciated the gowns and slippers provided. We didnt spend too long outdoors due to the cold weather but got lucRead moreky with a beautiful view of the stars in the sky on both evenings. Definitely considering booking again for a family visit. Hide

We had the most wonderful week at Fox Hollow. The cottage is unbelievably comfortable and warm with everything we could need to make our stay perfect. The bedrooms were big and comfortable, bathrooms clean and warm with the added luxury of bathrobes! Although late October, the kids loved the garden. I can imagine how perfect the garden is for longeRead morer days and warmer weather. Utility room, washing machine and tumble dryer a god-send! Amanda the housekeeper was fab! The location was great.

Our family had a lovely stay at Fox Hollow. The house is beautifully furnished and in a great location to access Ullswater and some beautiful walks. Unfortunately, due to the weather we werent able to enjoy the wonderful garden but the cosy wood burner was very welcome. We would definitely like to come back again in the future for a longer holiday!

Ideal location. Out of the way. Good for Ullswater and the north lakes. Very comfortable and appointed to a high standard throughout. Really enjoyed our stay. A marker of a good cottage is being sad to leave and I certainly felt that way. We had three young kids. Suitable for them too. We would certainly be happy to return.
