Browside Reviews

We stayed at Browside for 3 nights with 13 adults and 3 babies for my husbands 30th birthday and was nothing short of incredible! The views are something else!! Plenty of space, comfortable beds, nice cosy home! Would recommend to absolutely anybody and we will definitely be returning! The owners were lovely too which is always a bonus

Location and property were perfect Owners very friendly and helpful We were so ... Location and property were perfect Owners very friendly and helpful We were so lucky with the weather The hot tub was a bonus with great views

Super accommodation, highly recommended plus beautiful scenery.

Our car club have a spring tour each year and this year 13 of us from the North London MG Club took a trek up to Coniston Water, a 300 ish mile drive, but well worth it. We had many varied drives through the area as well as some very enjoyable walks and visits to local villages, towns and attractions, oh and can recommend NHS 111 and the Westmoreland Hospital in Kendal. The house was more than adequate for all of us and the facilities and equipment were appropriate. We enjoyed our stay and all the new born lambs in the adjacent field.

Adrian

Great property that allowed large family to get together in a wonderful location. Plenty of free entertainment for the kids, watching the farmer herding his sheep. Will recommend to friends.

Lorraine

The property is ideally set up for a large family or group gathering. The house is in good order, nicely decorated and well furnished. The kitchen is particularly well equipped with more than enough cookware, serving dishes, crockery and cutlery. The bedrooms are a good size and very comfortable. We particularly appreciated that most of the rooms had an ensuite. The hot tub was great fun, especially after a walk. Any queries we had both prior to and during our stay were promptly answered. We will undoubtedly be back.

This is a great place to stay, it was immaculate, the bedrooms and living rooms were really comfortable and the kitchen very well stocked. Unfortunately we had atrocious weather but apart from that we had a fab holiday

Victoria

Clean and tidy property with greta resources available. Lovely location, would recommend.

Duncan

Fantastic property extremely well equipped for everything needed. Beautiful views friendly and helpful owners. Only one recommendation for the benefit of others staying would be another fridge as if u have 14 people like we did there wasnt enough room in fridgefreezer provided

We had a brilliant week in this amazing property we loved everything about it, what a gem!

Christopher

This accommodation was used for an extended family holiday with 6 adults and two children a Spaniel. Fortunately the weather was better than forecast and plenty of opportunity for walking and climbing from the house. Mountain biking facilities in nearby Grizedale Forest and boating in Coniston Water. The house however is so comfortable and well equipped that poor weather would have been bearable. The hot tub is first class and was very popular. At the risk of blocking our own plans to rebook we would highly recommend Browside as a holiday venue for up to 14 people in a rural setting with plenty of off road parking.

A huge house in a great location with plenty of room and situated with views of Lake Coniston. A great base to explore the wider Lake District and of course take on the 'Old Man'.

Gillian

We had a wonderful time! Comfortable beds, lots of lovely clean bathrooms and loads of space to lounge in. The kitchen had everything we needed and two dishwashers came in very handy. We are an extended family ranging from 3 to 66 plus a dog and we all agreed its the best stay weve had

Trevor

We had a lovely holiday and the children enjoyed the hot tub. We had several enjoyable local walks. We were a bit surprised that we had to strip the beds etc as we were not aware of this as a contractual obligation. This niggle aside we had a lovely time.

12 of us and a dog stayed for 3 nights. Had a wonderful time. Cottage was great with all facilities and utilities needed. Hot tubs fantastic. Owners on hand if any problems but did not interfere at all. Fantastic location. Perhaps only downside was that a couple of the showers were very small especially in ensuite of bedroom off the lounge. We will certainly book again. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Everything was amazing! Such a brilliant weekend spent here

Robert

Browside was an excellent property for all our family to stay. Everything we needed within the property was provided. The two dishwashers were essential for fourteen of us and the washing machine and tumble dryer were well used as the weather was wet and kids liked getting wet and muddy. We all enjoyed the weeks break and would recommend the property for its location and facilities.

Jacqui

Fantastic views from really comfortable well equipped house. Hot tub was a real bonus. Owners v welcoming and helpful.

Louise

Knives in kitchen need replacing, no peeler or garlic press. Lovely stay otherwise, clean comfy cottage.

Glenis

Browside was a perfect choice for our family get together 3 couples and 2 widowed with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Which were all comfortable and spotless. It is in a lovely situation with beautiful views. The lounge was fine for 8 but would be crowded with 14. The sofas are very large and too wide in the seat to be comfortable and one of them sags badly. Would suggest some smaller sofas and one or two more chairs.. The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of crockery, glassware and pans etc but the kitchen knives need sharpening or a knife sharpener provided. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Browside and would return.

We had a fantastic stay at Browside. Fantastic views and great walks of various lengths. The house was clean and warm and the hot tub was a great treat! Kitchen had everything we needed and we were cooking for 13 people! Would definitely stay again.

Kathryn

An amazing and beautiful property with stunning views. Owners are very friendly and obliging. We had a great stay and are already talking about booking again

Patrice

Lovely property clean well maintained well equipped well situated and great views. Our party of 13 and 1 dog had a great chill out break and would recommend Browside without a doubt.

Beautiful property, lovely views and had an amazing time

Great base for lakes exploration, everything in cottage to make the stay efficiently comfortable, and relaxing. From en suits to 2x dishwashers, plus easy to use Hot Tub.

Douglas

Michele

Wonderful house plenty big enough for 2 couples and 2 families of 4. Great location, lovely to sit in not tub and look out at views. Coniston a 40 minute walk away with small co op, and spar. Garage and good chip shop in village. The entertainment from the sheep and dogs was added bonus. Steep drive and steps to house could cause some problems, but house itself all on one level. Would thoroughly recommend.

Everything three families needed was there, particularly the en suite bathrooms. The attention to detail was impressive eg flowers on the table on arrival and lots of information about the Lake District and local walks, it was exceptionally well equipped, very clean, the teenages enjoyed the hot tub, there was adequate parking and the garden was dog proof. There was even a TV in each room! It was a memorable week, no rain and temperature in the lower 30s! A great place for a family reunion.

Stephen

Just enjoyed a fabulous extended family holiday at Browside. There were 8 of us plus 1 dog. Plenty of room to spread out and enjoy both the property and the surrounding beautiful countryside. Great access to the local pathways and facilities. The walk to Coniston was around the 5k mark going along the lake side and full of things to see. Paddling in the lake was very popular. The hot tub was clean, well used and great after a busy day exploring. We would thoroughly recommend the accommodation and the location. Watching the local farmer and his dogs round up the sheep in the adjoining field, was the icing on the cake.

Jonathan

12 of us stayed in Browside this weekend and were all very happy. Cottage is well positioned in a great location Very clean and tidy Kitchen has everything you need to cook, clean, wash. Plenty of room in the house Very good.

Robert

Absolutely amazing, Browside was beautiful, had everything we needed and more! Scenery was beautiful and perfect location for walks. I can honestly say that not one of the 13 of us wanted to leave. Highly recommend!

Property was fantastic, clean, spacious well kitted out. Two dishwashers is a great idea with such a large group. Hot tub was great for adults and kids even if raining you are warm and can appreciate the stunning views.

An Excellent Family Xmas was enjoyed by all the family in Fantastic surroundings. Great walks to the lake and an amazing hot tub. Cottage had absolutely everything we needed Many thanks

Stayed at Browside as a family of 141 for a 60th birthday celebration. The youngest member of the family was 1 whilst the oldest is 86. The cottage is gorgeous with incredible views in a really nice location. The owners are always available and responsive to any queries. I would highly recommend this accommodation.

The whole family of four nerations e The whole family of four generations was able to enjoy the the accommodation with enough privacy for each.

Christine

Ideal place for a lovely walking holiday, close to Coniston Lake and the village of Coniston with plenty of amenities, lovely modern spacious house, hot tub a bonus, would recommend.

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals.

We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look". Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project. The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish! Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
