Fabulous Easter break

Beautiful holiday cottage in a great location - peaceful but really handy for Kendal and other parts of the Lakes. It was spotlessly clean and very well-equipped. Owners were lovely and friendly without being overbearing. Hot tub great. Grounds are immaculately kept. Thanks for a brilliant stay!

Fantastic picturesque property

We stayed here for 4 nights with our three kids. Stunning location with garden and woods for the kids. Near Kendal for shops and restaurants and 20 minutes to Lake Windermere. Hosts made to stay very comfortable. Great walks also surround the country location. Stunning.

Wonderful place to enjoy a relaxing holiday in a beautiful environment

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Butterfly Cottage. It was very luxurious, the hot tub was amazing (and so easy to use!), the environment is great, and the hosts are very, very friendly. If I had to complain about something it should be the poor wifi connection, but while we were there a cabled connection was about to be established, so any future guests will have superb internet on top of all the other good things. Thank you so much, Daryl and Kerith!

Beautiful cottage in a stunning location

The cottage was perfect, very clean and modern, well equiped and the gardens were great for my grandchildren to play on. Nothing was too much trouble for Daryl. We would definitely go back but next time we would like to stay in the 4 bedroom cottage with a hot tub adjacent to Butterfly Cottage. The scenery was stunning the only thing I can grumble about was the weather it must have been the worst week all summer but this has not put us off in coming back. Thank You

Holiday Retreat

We had an amazing stay in the cottage with our children. The facilities and surroundings were beyond our expectations. The cottage was very spacious and had all we needed with great views in every direction. The hot tub was great way to wind down and relax in the evenings. Both Daryl and Kerith were very welcoming and always tips and ideas on where to visit. We had some lovely conversations with them and its clear to see how much time and effort they have invested in this lovely estate. The location is also close to all the main attractions and only a short drive to the Kendal and Windemere. There are many nearby trails which are worth exploring. Ambleside is definitely worth a visit. We hope to come back and we wish both Daryl and Kerith the very best.

A beautiful property with stunning scenery on all sides. Equipped with everything you could possibly need and top quality too. The log fire and hot tub were a fantastic bonus.

Perfect situation

Our first visit to the Lake District and it didn't disappoint! Butterfly Cottage was everything we hoped for: beautifully situated in a secluded setting, easy to find, spotlessly clean, very comfortable in all rooms, plenty of space for 5 of us to spread out, private use of a hot tub (another first for us), and very well equipped facilities. Hosts had the perfect balance of being helpful whilst giving is our space. Highly recommend this place. Lots of beautiful walks right from the doorstep too, whilst only being a short drive to the motorway to the East and Windermere less than half hr to the west. Thanks for a wonderful stay with near perfect weather which was the icing on the cake!

Fabulous stay at Butterfly Cottage

We stayed for 3 nights at the end of September and loved every minute. The cottage was fabulous, spotlessly clean with everything we needed. The hot tub was great and we used it often we even managed a bbq despite the weather. Great place to stay only 10-15 minutes to supermarkets & Kendal by car. The Wi-Fi was a bit hit and miss but it we didn’t miss it and the phone signal for O2 wasn’t great but we got a signal & 4G if you sat on the stairs We will return. Thanks to Daryl & Kerith for being marvellous hosts. Loved the place ❤️

The perfect cottage to socialise and relax

A group of us came here for a reunion after two years. So it was important to us to have somewhere we could spend time socialising as well as have nice surroundings and places to explore. The cottage was perfect, super clean, hot tub was brilliant and Daryl was a great and friendly host. Thank you!

Such a beautiful cottage which was perfect for our getaway. Brilliant location, lovely and clean, and full of everything we could’ve possibly needed for our stay. Will most definitely be returning with more family and friends in the near future. Excellent hosts also, super accommodating and friendly throughout the whole booking process. Thank you

Lovely Cottage

Everything about the cottage was perfect. We loved our stay. The only little thing I’d suggest is improving the WiFi as signal was weak, not that it affected the stay or cottage.
