Three Mile House Reviews

Karen
The cottage was in a great location for day trips. We stayed with family and had a lovely time.
Denise
The house lends itself very well for a large family of 10 which we were. We did find the kitchen lacked work space when preparing meals. However it was very well equipped. The upstairs bathroom is shared between 6 adults so this can be an issue .
Jennifer
We all enjoyed our holiday. The house was big enough to accommodate all 10 of us. The hot tub was a great end to the day. There was no shortage of kitchen equipment & glasses. The outside area could do with a little TLC. But because the weather wasnt great we didnt get a chance to make use of it anyway. The sunroom at the back was good to relax in Read moreafter a day out . Hide
Sarah
our stay at Three Mile House was perfect- even the weather! The house is in a perfect location and the equipment available at the house was equally perfect. Our party had 2 people with additional needs and these were met higher than expected! We had a lovely time and some fabulous memories made as a family.
Andrew
Lovely house very well equipped and good location.
Fiona
10 adults stayed for a birthday weekend and lots of space to relax. lovely clean bathrooms and kitchen well equipped. We hired a chef to cook for us and he had everything he needed. You do need a car but that goes without saying. plenty of parking for 5 cars. Outside tap to rinse dogs down. Lots of clean fresh towels and very comfy beds. loads of cRead morerockery and cutlery which was good for us. Hide
Robert
A very comfortable and extremely well equipped property in a good location that is convenient for access to Kendal, Kirby Lonsdale, Sedbergh, the Lake District and the Dales
Charlotte
A wonderful property and location in the South Lakes. The owner was incredibly attentive and responded quickly with any queries. It was extremely cosy, with ample room for people to sit at the dining table or in the lounge (this is sometimes a struggle with other properties I've stayed out when it advertises sleeps 8+ but never enough seats in the Read moremain living areas). I highly recommend Three Mile House! Hide
Vanessa
A fabulous house for a holiday, beautiful walks on your doorstep and easy access by car to local areas. The house has everything you need and a hot tub outside, great outside area for BBQs and family get togethers.
Jill
To make sure the property has a good deep clean before people come to stay. No good just vacuuming without getting in to the corners and to make sure cobwebs are removed and flies removed. Apart from that we had a lovely holiday.
Patricia
A perfect place to stay for a large family get-together. A beautiful, comfortable house on the edge of the Lake District and Yorkshire dales. A lovely experience. Great to have met the owner, Mel.
Sophie
Beautifully, comfortable, thoughtfully furnished cottage with everything you could possibly need for a fantastic holiday. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and the wonderful bathrooms.
Jacqueline
The Farmhouse was extremely comfortable, clean and well equipped. Wonderful peaceful location with easy access to many walks and a short drive to Kendal, Sedburgh and Kirby Lonsdale. Superb.
Tracey
This is a fabulous home from home and my sister and I had a wonderful quiet relaxing week here, despite the rain. The owner is warm and welcoming and couldnt be more helpful. You are a short drive to most places but honestly with such character, charm and views you really dont need to.
Gaynor
Great house and well equipped, just what we were after. Beautiful location away from everything (but not far to Kirkby Lonsdale by car), totally recommend
Ian
Lovely house in a very peaceful location. Great log fires and hot tub. Very well equipped and a super host.
Anthony
I cannot think of anything that needs improving, or would improve the quality of our stay. The accommodation is absolutely fantastic - lovely and warm, extremely comfortable beds and fabulous kitchen with everything you need when cooking for the big family gathering. It's always great to be able to take our dog with us. The owner was very prompt in replying to any requests and extremely helpful in resolving any issues. Fabulous house!!
Robin
Beautiful property which is very well equipped and in a convenient location for both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. We thoroughly enjoyed the week that we spent there.

Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 8 Miles
Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction.  With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun.  You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money.  There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.

Happy Mount Park has attractions for the whole family including several play areas, a miniature railway, crazy golf, putting green and trampolines, there is also a paddling pool where the little ones can splash around in the summer and a café where the adults can relax with a drink. During the summer months and especially during school holidays live music can often be enjoyed.
Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 18 Miles
Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 21 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.
South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 24 Miles

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals.  Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area.  Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos.  At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed.  Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 26 Miles
Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
