Brackendale Cottage - Uk1335

Pros: Good location close to the fells. Clean, comfortable and had everything we needed.

Cons: Nothing comes to mind

Lovely cosy and convenient cottage for our stay in the Lake District

Pros: The location of this cottage is superb - excellent for touring the lakes. Also, you can walk from the cottage right up Blencathra. The village of Threlkeld is walkable to, we recommend St Mary's Church, and the Horse and Farrier Inn. Nearby Keswick has everything but is very touristy. We also walked up Latrigg (a good beginners' hill with fine views), and visited Grasmere for the Church, Wordsworth's grave, and the village (so pretty). If you need a cinema and shops, nearby Rheged is an interesting place. The cottage itself is cosy and comfortable, and good value for money.

Cons: We didn't need a washing airer on this occasion, but if it had been wet, there would've been nowhere to dry wet things. There is only a bath and it's not big, so the tall one of our family struggled a bit with that! The cottage could do with an airer, a vacuum cleaner, and a cafetiere. We did find the cottage warm, but a couple of insulating strips on the front door would go a long way to preventing cold draughts. Finally a couple of lights weren't working and although I sent a message through Booking.com I didn't hear back and they weren't fixed. Would definitely recommend overall though, and stay there again.

A lovely cosy cottage in a great location.

Pros: The cottage was very clean, warm and comfortable with everything we needed for a lovely break. The location is perfect, with great views and easy access to the surrounding area. The bath, with it's bubble jets and lights, was a real bonus as the kids actually wanted to get clean after a day out. The White Horse, just up the road in Scales, does really good food with generous sized portions. Threlkeld Coffee Shop in Threlkeld Village is also well worth a visit for great coffee and cakes, or lunch if you're feeling hungry, after the walk down. We'll definitely be back to stay again.

Pros: Perfect location, good facilities provided. Biggest issue as per other reviews I've seen is the hot water running out after a couple of inches in the bath🥺

Pros: Beautiful views from Windows. Really quiet place. Perfect place for families. We definitely recommend this cottage.

Cons: None

Great cottage and location.

Pros: Great location and cottage. All we needed for a relaxing stay. Bubble bath a great bonus. Lovely views too.

Cons: Would be nice to have some tea, coffee and sugar in the kitchen.
