Girls weekend

This house is just amazing, we felt like extras in Bridgerton! It was clean, comfortable everything we wanted was there, hot tub area really cute and private, easy to find with good parking for our party of 13. Just around the corner from train/buses/taxis. We ate at a beautiful greek restaurant but the facilities in the house were also of a standard we prepared a beautiful morning brunch! Communication from the owners was superb, quick helpful replies, we would definitely recommend staying here and look forward to booking it again in the future,

80th birthday family get together

all the family loved the house and it was the best and a good time was had by all. The location was perfect for Windermere shops and bars and Bowness was only a short drive or a 20 minute walk which suited us all. It was the best holiday house/cottage we have stayed at.

The perfect place for big groups

We had a lovely stay at Number One. The house is amazing - has everything you need for a big group stay. All the rooms are massive and beautifully decorated too. Especially appreciated the spare hooks on the walls meaning you could hang up any party decor without using blue tac

Just perfect

We couldn’t have asked for a better place for stay for our reunion of friends. Comfortable, warm, clean, great location. Definitely a return visit will be in order. Congratulations to the owners who have put a lot of effort and thought into making Number One, The Terrace, a home from home.

Terrific Terrace

Thirteen of us had a fantastic time here to celebrate Mum and Dad’s Diamond Wedding Anniversary. The house is amazing… so much space, beautifully decorated…. Lots of equipment. Everything we needed. The location couldn’t be better for Windermere. So close to Booths, the train station, Crafty Baa, great pubs, lovely walks. Also, the weather was kind to us. Thank you for having us. X

Great location and house

We stayed at 1 The Terrace to host a hen do and it was the perfect house for a wholesome hen do for 14 people. The rooms were all a great size and this was matched by the living space too. The hot tub and the cinema room were a great bonus as well!

Blown away by this property!

We booked Number 1 The Terrace for our companies team building weekend and we were blown away by the property. The standard of decor blended with the original features made it one of the nicest places any of our staff had stayed in before. The layout of the rooms and furniture made it perfect for large groups. The sofa in the front room I think was the largest I've ever seen! The huge dining table made for a great dinner party in the evening. The hot tub and cinema room were also a big hit with our staff. The owners have done an amazing job with the property and you can see that much thought has gone into every little detail. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the property for any group or occasion.

Fantastic weekend away in a fabulous house

I stayed here in 2023 for my friends birthday and as soon as I got back I knew I wanted to go again this time with my partner and a group of couples. Got it booked again and it didn’t disappoint. As the organiser I was hoping my group would love the house just as much as me and it’s safe to say everyone did from the facilities to the location. I couldn’t recommend it enough and we will be back!

Fantastic House

A really comfortable, well equipped house, big but really cosy. We comfortably sat 12 for dinner, loved the very well equipped kitchen and even mastered the Aga. The enclosed garden was really safe for our dogs and very handy location for local walks or as a base to explore further. Owners responded really quickly to any questions. We would definitely book again.

Great House, great holiday

My family meet in Windermere every year and come in from all over the world. We usually stay at Boston House, but this year we had to try Number One. Even though some of the family had to cancel due to illness, everyone still had a wonderful time. They actually preferred Number One to Boston House (just) which I never thought I'd hear them say. Great house, great hosts and an amazing location. See you next year!

Family Birthday Gathering No1

No1 met all our expectations, it is a lovely house for a family celebration. The garden was safe for our family dog. The location is perfect for bus and train stations but if you wanted a quiet countryside location this is not the property for you as it is situated on a busy main road. We did however enjoy the outside space for dining. Would recommend to all.

A great house for a gathering

The house was really large and had everything we needed for a birthday weekend away. It was warm and comfortable, with easy parking, and with very easy access to Windermere and Orrest Head. The only negative was that the room 6 bed wasn’t as comfortable as the others. Unfortunately the immediate neighbours decided not to finish their hot tub partying until 5am which was far beyond our staying power, but we wouldn’t have noticed their nighttime noise had they moved indoors. All in all, a great house for a get-together.

Fantastic Stay

Our stay at No.1 The Terrace in Windermere was absolutely perfect. The house is beautifully spacious, easily accommodating our group of six, yet it still felt incredibly cosy and welcoming. Every detail has been thought through, making it a truly luxurious place to stay. The extra touches really made the experience special – the jacuzzi was perfect for unwinding after a day exploring, the private bar area made evenings feel extra fun, and the cinema room was an amazing addition for cosy nights in. The location couldn’t have been better, just a short walk into Windermere and close to everything we needed. The house was also spotlessly clean, which made our stay even more comfortable. From the moment we booked, the communication was fantastic – clear, helpful, and responsive, which made everything so easy. If you’re looking for a stunning house with fantastic amenities in a perfect location, I can’t recommend No.1 The Terrace highly enough. We will definitely be back!

The Terrace Windermere

Andy was excellent providing a lot of information about check in process and places to visit at Lake District. Wonderful large house. Amazing kitchen and cinema room! Kitchen was fully equipped. Comfortable beds. Hot-tub was a bonus! Less than 2 minutes walk from the Windermere station and supermarkets, less than 5 minutes walk to town and 20 minutes walk to marina, 30 minutes tourist bus ride to Ambleside etc at £2 a journey. Very convenient location with lots of hikes. Quiet corner plot although next to the station and main road. Will definitely stay again. T group, July 2023

Great place to stay in Windermere

Number one The Terrace is an excellent property for a large group of people looking to stay in the lakes. It has everything you need for self catered accommodation; plenty of space to relax, nice big kitchen and utility, comfy and spacious bedrooms, bathrooms with everything you’d expect, and a hot tub and cinema room for good measure. Everything at the property worked as expected, with the exception of the WiFi in the cinema room in the basement. We just weren’t able to get a consistent connection to stream a film. But don’t let this put you off, if you’re anything like us you’ll be out enjoying everything the lakes have to offer anyway!

Family break

A half term break for our family, so, us the grandparents, our two children and their spouses plus 6 grandchildren. We appreciated the space provided. Big hallway for all the coats and shoes. Dining room lacked personality it felt like a school room. Lounge cosy. Chandeliers throughout a bit ornate. Cinema room good fun. Kitchen was well equipped I was glad I took my own coffee machine Great AGA. Felt that location of hot tub was off putting and therefore not very inviting. Great spacious bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms Exit on to a busy road could be difficult as on a bend and I wasn’t aware the property was so close to a major road. Location otherwise was perfect for all the activities especially the walk up Orrest head which is fabulous, the walk down to the shops was great especially handy was Booths literally around the corner so easy to pop around to for any necessities. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Beautiful Cottage

The cottage is in a perfect location, plenty of parking and in walking distance to shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. The cottage itself was immaculate, beautiful and roomy, There is everything you can think of in the cottage and the hot tub and cinema room was an added bonus. The bedrooms and bathrooms were good in sizes too and the bed I stayed in was very comfortable. We had lovely weather when staying here but inside the cottage was also warm and cozy so I would imagine in colder months it would still be perfect. Would definitely recommend staying here. My only negative is I am still waiting my £400 refundable damages deposit and I have had to chase this and I post 8 days of staying here. I have been told it is in process but I feel this is a long time to wait. However this is no reflection on the cottage itself.
