Really needed to recharge my human batteries and unplug and unwhind. Staying at High Holme gave me this opportunity! It's a home from home with all the mod cons. Beautiful gardens which our two dogs absolutely loved! We ate at the strand inn for the first few nights and the food was lovely.

We had a lovely stay, the house had everything we needed and was in a beautiful location. We were very lucky with the weather too. The hot tub was lovely to relax in while the kids played football in the huge garden. Would recommend the Sunday roast at the Strands inn it was delicious and just a few mins walk away.

Clare

A lovely stay at High Holme. Plenty of room for 7 and a dog. So quiet with stunning views.. The house itself was very comfortable. The bedrooms were a bit dated . The bathrooms and kitchen were modern and well equipped . Comfy beds and clean bedding. Heating was strange but plenty of plug in heaters to use. It had everything we needed. welcome goodRead moreies were a nice touch. Couldnt use the garden as it was flooded but the hot tub was great .

Susan

Perfect stay in a perfect location enjoyed by all the party. High Holme certainly didnt disappoint. Will be recommending to friends.

Jackie

We had an amazing holiday at High Holme. The house was equipped with everything you needed and the views were stunning. The rooms were a good size and accommodated 8 of us with 2 dogs. The Hot Tub and games room were an added bonus and well used by us. The pub and the shop were very near to walk to and it was well placed for lovely walks and visitiRead moreng local attractions. Due to the weather we couldn't make use of the telescope much however it was a lovely touch. A great place I highly recommend. Hide

Bryn

Fantastic location. Nether Wasdale is a special hamlet in a special valley. The house has a wonderful elevated place with views over to Ill Gill. In hot weather we found it overly warm as only a few windows can be opened and I also felt, for the cost, it could do with a lick of paint and carpet clean. The garden is something of a safe haven for bot h children and dogs and lots of time was spent in the hot tub. Please note that The Screes pub has not reopened since Covid.

Georgette

Absolutely great property, it has everything you could need. From cooking facilities, bbq, fire pit, to games and activities for both kids and adults. The hot tub was ready to go when we got there, and it was great to have sky for the sports lovers! The location is fantastic, with the pub a 2mins walk, scarfell pike, the beach and the lake. Small m inor being a gap in the fence line behind the bamboo garden and our escape artist of a dog found it. However, would definitely go back.

Lindsey

What a fantastic week the 9 of us had. The accommodation was excellent. . It catered for us all, 2.5 years up to 79years. The lower garden was a great place for the little ones to run around and the secret bamboo garden was exploring fun for them. The friendly phone call from the owner on arrival showed care that we were happy with everything. It w as so good, weve booked for next year.

Rachel

High Holme was a delight to stay at. Stunning views from the huge windows and literally 2 minutes walk down the road to the pub. House is very comfortable and well equipped - large garden, hot tub and games room were a hit with the teenagers. Quieter, slower area of the Lake District that wed love to return to.

Derek

A beautiful setting, gorgeous gardens, views and a great hot tub! Perfect cottage for a big family celebration.

Lee

One of the best most beautiful cottages I have ever stayed in . Had absolutely everything. Everything you needed to know was in the red book . All round fantastic stay many thanks Lee

Gillian

Amazing, value for money, the owner calls and makes sure you're OK. 5 star experience

Clare

The location is idyllic and the house easily accommodates 10 people. The festive touches were very much appreciated too. Hot tub is great after an arduous day's hiking and the big kitchen makes feeding the family very easy. Some of the plumbing has a bit of a mind of its own which was probably the only downside

Jacqueline

Beautiful house with everyone catered for . There was 10 of us ranging from 17 month to 60 year old (6 adults 5 children). Games room and hot tub was a big hit . Comfy beds, easy parking , local walks . Perfect long weekend. Thankyou for helping making great family memories for a 60 th birthday.

Sue

Loved the cottage! Masses of room for a family gathering. We stayed over the weekend of 5 November 2022 and there were 6 adults and three under fives so there was plenty of rooms for us. We were able to take our dog too which was an added bonus. The house is extremely well equipped. The gardens are lovely and it was nice to spend a few hours in the hot tub when it had stopped raining! Location fab as there are two pubs a spit away albeit only one was open. Beautiful location! Would recommend!

Christine

The perfect place for a family celebration. The accommodation is well equipped, the garden is lovely and the views amazing!

Susan

This was an ideal location for a family get together, with lovely scenery & walking opportunities. The bedrooms were comfortable. The lounge was large enough to sit us all comfortably. The kitchen was clean & well equipped. We didn't use the games room, because we were blessed with lovely weather, but it looked good. The hot tub was glorious. The f lat garden was ideal for outside games, with games & deckchairs & a BBQ in the shed. Cafe's and pubs, an easy stroll away were real bonus.

Janet

Lovely property, beautiful setting. Cleaning not to a high standard.

ROGER

Location is ideal for outdoor activities, and being on the quieter unspoilt part of the Lake District makes this house an ideal holiday location. The house was perfect for our family get together and the layout of the house, large garden and the hot tub meant that all three generations were catered for. The location of the pubs in the village was t he icing on the cake.

Alan

Excellent cottage in an excellent location.

Liza

Fabulous holiday in a beautiful location. Cannot recommend enough. Local pubs are lovely and great local walks. Just beautiful

Mark

The photos on the website looked fantastic and when we got there it was even better! Shortly after we arrived the owner rang us with helpful information about the property and the area ie things to do / where to eat etc. which was thoughtful. They also left a wonderful basket of provisions for us!. We had read the reviews before we arrived, so knew the only criticism was that people could not rebook as always fully booked - so we rebooked for next year whilst we were still there! Simply perfect!

Gillian

Amazing, amazing so clean, well stocked, comfy, amazing facilities and views thank you

Wendy

This is an amazing cottage! Kitchen is great, plenty of utensils, plates, cups etc. Theres a large fridge freezer as well as an under counter fridge. Bedrooms have plenty of storage and beds were comfortable. TVs in every room & Sky inc Sports in lounge. Screes was a nice pub less than one min down road which serves food but need to book if large g roup. Wastwater was only 1.5 miles away and was stunning. We will definitely return and hopefully be able to use the hot tub in dryer weather.

Laura

Absolutely loved the cottage we are looking at re-booking but cant find a date thats free its no wonder as the price is reasonable and location is brilliant for walking and exploring the surrounding area

Graham

Excellent property and location. Plenty of equipment in kitchen and drying facilities for wet clothes! Spacious for a group, wildlife on doorstep. Owner phoned to check we had arrived and all ok and gave us some local knowledge etc. Would definitely recommend to others.
