The location of the Hayloft is very special, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and we were able to completely relax, not having mobile phone reception was a real bonus, we intend to return there.
The property was very remote which suited us as we could walk from the cottage. The Hayloft is set amongst beautiful countryside. Owners live on site and are very friendly and helpful.
The Hayloft was very comfortable, clean, and well presented. The location was perfect for us, in a valley very close to Cat Bells, amazing walks and climbs from the door. The owners were friendly and helpful, but not at all intrusive. We enjoyed staying on their working farm. The beds were very comfy, bathrooms excellent, and it was a real bonus having the wood burner so we felt cosy on the occasional rainy day. We would definitely recommend this accommodation and intend to return.
The location of the property was amazing; totally relaxing from the moment we arrived.
The Hayloft is the best cottage we've been to, in a lovely peaceful part of the Lakes. Friendly and helpful owners.
The Hayloft is in a beautiful setting on a working farm with far reaching views over the Newlands Valley. Great - and welcoming owner who left us to have the quiet holiday we wanted but were on hand if we needed them. There are walks on your doorstep, Keswick is close by and many lakeside, hilltop and countryside walks are easily accessible. The cottage is cosy, clean, well-equipped and warm. In the cottage we found useful information on the local area and Fiona was able to help us with any additional questions. Enjoyed every moment of our stay.
Lovely cottage, we would recommend it to everybody. Quite peaceful, overall could not fault it and understand why it is always booked up. 10 out of 10.
The owners welcomed us on arrival and made sure we had information regarding the accommodation, directions to local points of interest, where to purchase food items and good food pubs. The property was exceptionally clean with all mod cons, and was situated in the most beautiful setting with amazing views from all windows. Eat in or locally, you would not be disappointed with the surroundings. The accommodation and location is perfect for dogs. It is somewhere we would recommend and where we will be returning for many years to come.
The location was excellent, with lots of walking direct from cottage, the car could have a rest. Had very friendly and helpful owners. Lovely and quiet, a proper get away.
A fantastic well equipped, spotless cottage in a great location. The wood burner in the lounge heated the place quickly and made it cosy. There were great walks from the doorstep and amazing views of Skiddaw from the kitchen window. The super king size bed was really comfy and it was only a 15 minute drive into Keswick. Overall a great spot for exploring the Northern Lakes.
This was an outstanding property in a wonderfully remote location. Stunning surroundings and view. All facilities were excellent with a good selection of guides and maps to borrow and family games available. A perfect break was had by us all. The log burner within the property had the place toasty during the cold snaps we had and there were plenty of dry hardwood logs available.
Fab place - everything is excellent, we love it! Thanks to the owners.
The setting of the Hayloft was marvellous and the surrounding countryside was wonderful. We wanted for nothing.
Everything was fantastic, a great place.
A brilliant cottage; we will stay again.
Friendly owners, perfect location. Great being on working farm with animals. Bird feeders meant there was birdwatching from the cottage windows - and wonderful views.
The location was perfect for a peaceful holiday.
This cottage is in a spectacular location with wonderful views. Being away from the nearest lakes, it is particularly peaceful, although still within each reach of popular tourist attractions. The cottage itself is superb, the layout of two en-suite bedrooms around the sitting room well thought-through, the furnishings of very high quality and the decorations charming. The terrace and garden are perfect for the occasional sunny day (!) and through the efforts of the owners the bird life is spectacular (we saw a woodpecker family: mother, father and chick, every day). The owners were very helpful.
Stunning views from the property and walks right on the doorstep!
The Hayloft was really a nice cottage at a very high standard in a beautiful part of the Lakes. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful and we will definitely be holidaying at The Hayloft next year. l could recommend The Hayloft to anybody.
On arrival at The Hayloft we were overwhelmed by the log burner, flowers and biscuits. Its the best place we have stayed in. The owners were most helpful and obliging and we will go back, if it was star rated it would be 5 star plus.
Great place in setting and contents. Beautiful setting. Would go back in a heartbeat.
The location was excellent. Owners are very nice and friendly.
An excellent holiday. The owners were friendly and helpful. The location was superb, and the accommodation itself first class. I would not hesitate to recommend it to my friends and family.
The cottage was very well appointed and was set out perfectly for our family. The owners could not have been any friendlier. The stars when visible were not obscured by street lights, and the wildlife was ever present. As expected the walking was awesome, the cottage provided maps and guide books, which was very welcome.
The peaceful and stunning location of this property. Owners who take the time and show interest in you to ensure that you get the most out of the time spent there. The best we have stayed in!
The location of the property is absolutely perfect.
Location, scenery, all superb. The Hayloft was extremely comfortable, warm and welcoming, would love to return. I like the fact that both bedrooms are en-suite. And that my husband with limited mobility was able to get in via a ramp with a rail. The owners are lovely too. A most delightful place we didn't want to leave.
We were made to feel really welcome. The standard of the accommodation was superb and the views spectacular.
Everything about the place was superb. The Hayloft itself was tremendous but the location took it to a new level.
Stunning location with walks from the front door. The property is amazing and the woodburner is lovely when it's cold.
The views were outstanding, it was so peaceful waking up each morning to the sounds of the birds singing. The attention to detail taken by the owners of this cottage are spot on, we arrived to the log burner alight which was really nice not to have to light the fire as soon as we arrived on such a cold day.
Location! Beautifully appointed cottage, helpful and friendly owners. One of, if not the best apartment we have ever stayed in.
Fantastic property in a beautiful location with very friendly owners. Would recommend it to anyone.
A very peaceful location, beautiful views, lovely cottage and a warm welcome. Highly recommended.
The cottage is everything that you could wish for, the location is second to none and the owners and friendly and there when needed. All in all best Cottage I have ever been to and I have been to a good number. I will recommend and return soon.
Excellent location, especially if you want to walk directly from the cottage. The owners are very nice and helpful. Would certainly go again.
The welcome offered by the owners was superb, they couldn't have been more helpful. Considering the property was part of a working farm they were always keen to offer advice and assistance. The property was exemplary and I would recommend it to anybody who wants to experience the Lake District.
Property was furnished and decorated to an extremely high standard. Location was wonderful - very remote and quiet with great access to walks. Owners and their family were very friendly and helpful.
We loved the location and style of accommodation which was practical and tastefully decorated. It is a great place to unwind and provides good access to the fells. We will certainly return to the Hayloft and have already recommended it to our family and friends.
The Hayloft is the perfect place to stay whether you're on a walking holiday or a relaxing holiday. Nestled between the fells with no close neighbours except the sheep and the owners. It truly is an idyllic retreat. It was decorated and furnished beautifully, we couldn't have asked for anywhere better. We would definitely go back.
The location was beautiful, the owners very friendly and helpful.
We liked the location of The Hayloft and the stunning views surrounding it. Also the relaxed approach from the owners.
The Hayloft is sufficiently remote which made for a really relaxed holiday. I loved the spectacular views from the cottage and the comfort of a wood fire burner on damp rainy days.
It was a beautiful conversion of a traditional farm building in the lovely Newlands Valley. The owners were very helpful and friendly and we loved the wood burning stove.
The Hayloft was absolutely amazing! We will definitely go back. The location is great, the views are incredible and the house is so comfy we were more than happy to sit in all night, have a few drinks on the patio outside and enjoy the log burning stove. Perfect getaway!
This was a magical location to get away from it all and walk in the mountains. WiFi completed the picture for us as we could maintain contact where there was no mobile coverage. The kitchen in particular was the best equipped of any we have ever stayed in.
A very cosy cottage in a lovely location.
A well equipped cottage in a superb location - wonderful peace and quiet and views to die for!
