A perfect location for enjoying the Lake District at its most peaceful. Great walks from the doorstep. Spacious and comfortable. We hope to keep returning.
We stayed 3 nights in this beautiful house, in the early summer of 2023. The house is nicely decorated, is very quietly located and fully equipped. The location is ideal for exploring the area: both beautiful walks and culture.
Due to the drought we had an issue with the water supply, but in consultation with David we found a good solution.
Highly recommended!
Our stay at this lovely cottage was better than expected. We immediately felt at home and were very impressed with the location. It was very easy to get to Ambleside, amazing walks and a lovely lake to swim in. The communication with the owners was really good, when needed. The lack of Wifi was at times frustrating (especially for the kids) but you do get quite a good signal tat times at the end of the garden and sometimes in the bedroom with the balcony.. We would definitely like to stay here again in the future and explore more of the Lake District.
We booked this as a place for a complete getaway but near enough to all the attractions of the Lakes. The cottage was exactly as described and so welcoming, with homely touches. All the equipment we needed and more. Sitting outside in the garden looking and listening to the local wildlife and farm animals in the surrounding fields and trees. It was amazing watching the night sky with no light pollution. David was great at responding to any small query we had before and during the stay. Cannot recommend the cottage enough.
Fantastic in every way. Scenery was incredible. Pictures of the cottage do not do it justice. Incredible walks 3 minutes from the cottage. Only slight drawback was they don't have Wi-Fi.
Stayed here for a week in August it's a beautiful cottage and it has lovely views it was so peaceful and its only a short drive to Ambleside we really enjoyed our stay would definitely recommend
comfortable, and with views as stated.
great location. we didn't use the car all week just walked out of the door every day.
good pubs and restaurants within reasonable walking distance
very quiet location
The property is exactly as listed. The owner was responsive when we had a problem with leak. Poor phone signal cannot be helped but wi-fi is probably essential as restaurants,steamers, garages often require online booking.
A fabulous break in this idyllically located cottage with wonderful views from the house. The cottage is well located but quiet and rural, with some great walking from the doorstep and just a few minutes walk to the beautiful Loughrigg Tarn. The cottage is well equipped and nicely furnished, with plenty of entertainment provided. We were two adults and two pre-teens and had heaps of space to chill out.
Very well-equipped, quaint cottage, set in beautiful surroundings with walks right from the doorstep. Ample sized accommodation for 6 (there were 5 of us, but would also suit 2/4). Loved our week there.
Great setting. Conveniently placed for a lovely swim in the lake and beautiful walks in the surrounding countryside. The house is much bigger than described plenty of room for six people. Lots of amenities and helpful suggestions of walks and places to eat.
Basic but comfortable cottage right in the heart of the Lake District. Beautiful views from the house and garden. Peaceful location yet handy for Ambleside and surrounds. Loughrigg tarn nearby- lovely for an evening stroll or swim!
Ellers Cottage has been 'home from home' for our family for over 30 years and is a very special place that all three generations enjoy. We live in Yorkshire and are frequent visitors to Ellers Cottage where we enjoy fell-walking, sailing on Coniston Water and relaxing in front of the wood-burning stove. It is important to us that guests at Ellers Cottage have a wonderful stay and enjoy the Langdale area as much as we do so we make every attempt to make the cottage welcoming and cosy.
Ellers Cottage started life as an agricultural out-building and was first converted to a home in the 1960s. In 2001 it was completely redesigned and rebuilt by our family and made into the beautiful cottage it is today. It retains its traditional Lakeland feel but is now warm and cosy with all mod cons. The location is fabulous with stunning views across the valley and picturesque Loughrigg Tarn is only minutes by foot. This property would suit couples or families alike and there is plenty to do in the area whatever your preferred pass-time.
Ellers Cottage is one of just a few properties in the small hamlet of Ellers Brow. The location - near Skelwith Bridge just outside Ambleside - is second-to-none with some of the most famous walks and sights in the Lakes close at hand. Ellers Cottage is beautifully kept and extremely comfortable and the views from the garden across the Brathay and Langdale valleys are stunning. Fields adjoin the pretty garden and deer, buzzards and other wildlife are frequently spotted from the balcony.
