About this cottage rental

Lying at the entrance to the peaceful Kentmere valley Staveley is within the Lake District National Park near Windermere. Holme Cottage is a detached character cottage tucked behind a terrace row of cottages, surrounding a communal lawned area,in Banks Fold in the centre of this bustling Lakeland village.

A beautifully presented sitting room with inviting living flame gas stove beckons you as you enter this attractive Lakeland Cottage. Well equipped dining kitchen. Upstairs you will find two well presented co-ordinated bedrooms and a pleasant fully tiled bathroom.

Staveley is a “mecca” for mountain bikers and cyclists due to Kentmere and Garburn Pass being on its doorstep, and there is a good sized cycle superstore in the village. Also within the thriving village you will find the Eagle and Child pub, Haweshead brewery and bar, Wilf’s cafe, a fish and chip shop, an artisan bakery, small Spar supermarket, butchers, chemists and a children’s play area and a train station - ideal if you want to head to Windermere or Kendal. Windermere is just a few miles away and travelling in the opposite direction is the medieval market town of Kendal, which is known as the gateway to the lakes.

This is an excellent house in superb state of repair with very good quality furniture. It is very well equipped and spotlessly clean. The booking process was simple and Martin Wardle of the agents was extremely helpful. The house is situated in a village which is very near Kendal, the lakes and just over one hour to the Solway coast. There are some very good dining places in the area with our favourite being The Watermill Inn which has its own micro brewery producing very tasty beers. All in all we had a very enjoyable holiday and brought back many memories of when I worked there in the 1970s. If it is available we would certainly stay at Holme Cottage in the future. Thankyou very much to all concerned.

We rented this place out for 5 adults staying for 3 days for the Kendao Mountain Festival. Great location for the festival and for exploring nearby via car. The place was big enough for us as a close group of friends and we had everything we needed. Really friendly and responsive host!

We had an amazing holiday, the location was stunning with the scenery of beautiful mountains all around. As well a really nice river flows through the village. The village is nice and peaceful and with Windermere being very close by we visited it twice in our three night holiday. The cottage was very decent and clean being the perfect size house. All in all we had a fabulous time.

Melanie was fantastic and extremely helpful in ensuring that we had the best stay. From taking our calls post 12am to providing advice on local attractions Melanie was always there to help. The cottage was great, cosy, clean and had all the essential utensils etc that one would require for a weekend stay. We will certainly be back.

Great break away

Great break away

We had a lovely break the house was a great size for the four of us, the bedrooms are a decent size, the provision of equipment was also good more plates and mugs etc than just the bare minimum four often provided. The heating kept the house warm and cosy. Although set back from the road through a gennel it does make for a quiet place. We loved it!

Fantastic Cottage & Village

Fantastic Cottage & Village

Had an amazing week away in this fantastic cottage in the centre of picturesque Staveley. The place was immaculate & had lots of little extras not usually provided in a holiday let. Booking was easy & communication was excellent. The caretaker was brilliant checking on us throughout our time to ensure we were happy. Staveley is not only beautiful but is a perfect base for exploring the Lakes. It has many shops, takeaways, cafés, pub, Hawkshead Brewery, small artisan businesses, play park & local walks. Despite this, the village was always peaceful with very little traffic. The facilities were all in a 10 minute stride of our tranquil cottage. The neighbours were all really friendly & helpful too. We would definitely recommend it to others.

This was a wonderfully situated cottage in a wonderful location. The process was smooth from booking on the site and check in to check out. Staveley has some good small businesses catering to most, if not all, needs. Special mention must go to Hawkshead Brewery and More Bakery which gave us something to look forward to when we returned from walking to Potter Tarn. I would definitely recommend booking this wonderful cottage to anyone.

Great family base for the Lakes

Great family base for the Lakes

If you are expecting a cottage with amazing views of the Lakes from every window, this is not the cottage for you. If however, you want a comfortable, exceptionally clean, warm and well presented cottage in a great location close to the M6 with easy access to the southern lakes (and beyond if you are willing to travel), then this could well be the cottage for you. There was enough space for our family of four (more than this would be a bit of a squeeze) and Staveley itself has a lot to offer (great chippy, excellent pub, massive bike shop, Hawkeshead Brewery, Wilfs cafe, local events, butchers, finding the rope swings in Craggy Plantation etc etc). Yes there's no dedicated parking so you have to park on the road near the property (which we never had a problem doing during our 4 day stay) and some may not like being so close to other properties (we enjoyed the historic feel of being on a shared courtyard and never felt overlooked) but overall this is an excellent holiday let and well looked after by the lovely Mel!

Handy, well equipped and super comfortable cottage for a wonderful short break

Booked at very short notice but Martin responded promptly with confirmation and directions and Mel had the place sparkling for our arrival. Great location at the gateway to the Lakes yet only a few minutes' drive from Windermere. Also Staveley village has a great chippy, Spar is open late and you're in the countryside immediately whichever way you go. Easy parking. Well equipped kitchen. Strong wifi throughout. And a big selection of DVD's, board games and books. Really comfortable bedrooms. Heating and hot water all good. Thank you very much.
