Perfect cottage for a large family gathering especially the mix of parents, grandparents and children that we had. Lots of space, including storage space, really well organised but not over-fussy - all the equipment needed for a self-catering holiday and all of high quality, with the extra bonus of excellent pool and football tables. Great garden, Read moreand superb bicycle rides from the front door, of all distances and terrains. And this is all before you have days away from the immediate area, with lots of family choices within easy distances. First class holiday - helped by sunshine for Easter week. Hide

The cottage was well equipped, spacious and great for a group get together. The games room was fun especially in poor weather. We went for my 60th birthday with family of all ages and had a great time. Plenty of space for everyone to do their own thing.

We had an amazing time at Rockwood during the Christmas week. The location was great and just enough off the beaten track but also close enough to local amenities and the lakes generally. The house was very well appointed and equipped and the garden was amazing which our dogs loved. The games room was a bonus with pool and table football.

We had a wonderful few days at this comfortable, well equipped cottage. The owner had made sure it was beautifully warm on our arrival. The kitchen was well equipped and roomy. The games room was well used! We loved the location in terms of a variety of walks from the house and plenty of different things to do in the area. Although we didnt use theRead more outside areas and garden, given it was January, they looked very attractive. Hide

We had a lovely family break for a long weekend at Rockwood. We were 10 adults and the cottage had plenty of everything in the kitchen. Beds were comfy and the games room brought lots of fierce pool competitions. Garden would be lovely in the summer and there were great walks around for the dog. Handy location for everywhere in the South lakes.
