Overview
Property code: LCC78

This charming romantic retreat enjoys a peaceful location in the pretty village of Bouth. Just a stone’s throw from the local pub, it’s surrounded by beautiful countryside and within easy reach of the southern lakes and fells. One canine is welcome to join you at this pretty cottage too, making it a rural escape for you all.

Tasteful decor and comfortable furnishings throughout, make this home a lovely bolthole for your holiday. The open-plan living space on the ground floor is contemporary in style, with the odd original feature too. The modern kitchen is perfect for preparing snacks or a candlelit meal, which can be enjoyed at the dining table. At the end of a long day of walking, let the dog stretch out on the rug as you both settle down in the lounge area in front of a film, for a cosy night in. Heading upstairs, sink down under the covers and drift off into a deep sleep in the restful bedroom, which is light and calming. Wake up to those pretty views across the fields, before freshening up in the stylish bathroom. Enjoy some al fresco dining in the sunny patio garden, which also has a delightful summer house which is lovely come rain or shine. A section of the garden is enclosed with a barrier, which can be removed if necessary.

Both Lake Windermere (5 miles) and Coniston Water (6 miles) offer a range of water sports as well as pleasure cruises to different locations. Wander around the cobbled streets of Hawkshead (9 miles) before stopping off to eat at one of its many pubs. Follow one of the walking trails that pass your front door, or for a more challenging day, climb to the summit of the Old Man of Coniston, 12 miles away.

A lovely little cottage for the two of us plus the dog. Great views and the pub down the road had some great food. A great base for exploring the Lake District. Just be mindful there are no shop in the village itself so ensure you bring your essentials until to venture out and about.

Really lovely cottage in a handy location. We found lovely walks local to the village as well as travelling further into the lakes. Garden was secure which which enabled the dog to enjoy time outdoors without us worrying he'd escaped. One small issue with a leak but was rectified quickly and professionally

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, the location is some distance from what might be considered as the main attractions of the district but it was lovely and quiet, a nice place to return to after visiting the lakes. The cottage is comfortable with all the amenities of home and a nice pub a short walk away, could not ask for more.

A well finished, tidy, clean cottage in a quiet and interesting location. Nearby popular country pub. No shops to hand tho. Walks from the door and lovely garden and outside area. Handy for southern and western lakes, plus coast and peninsulas. Comfortablej

A really beautiful cottage missing some attention to detail (Cupid on a grey bucket for one) which would make it 10/ 10 rather than 6/ 10. The bathroom is well overdue a deep clean with mould and dirt. The pillows on the bed are very uncomfortable/ flat and the quilt not great. There is a gap between the lounge and kitchen floor. The owner was realRead morely lovely when informed about the bathroom, I was advised this would be addressed at the end of our stay. Hide

Great location, cottage is small but has everything you need inside, perfect place after exploring the lakes to relax in. Garden is semi secure if your dog is a jumper, ours jumped the wall into next door's garden, but easily got her back , couldn't go any further though. A cottage I would return to

Excellent.Yew tree cottage was cosy, comfortable and welcoming. A first time visit to the Lake District, this cottage was central to all our explorations, and we enjoyed all our visits to different locations. A very enjoyable week was spent at Yew Tree Cottage, and would highly recommend.

I would highly recommend this property as it had everything we needed and also a great location. Lovely local walks for us and our dog. We had lovely weather and managed to enjoy the lovely, pretty garden. The only negative - the advert for the property gave the impression there was one parking space for the property. This is not the case the spaceRead more is on a first come first served basis. We had to park in the pub car park, not ideal. All said, we had a great 4 days at this cottage. Hide
