“Fell View is an excellent property, made even better by the lovely family who own it.”

We got lost trying to find the farm and Anne patiently directed us over the phone. The cottage was exactly as described, really well equipped and spotless, and we had a lovely few days exploring this part of the Lake District. Wouldn't hesitate to come back or to recommend.

“We had a wonderful stay at Fell View Cottage!”

Everyone was exceptionally friendly and had so much patience for all our children's questions about their farm. They even got a ride on the quad bike! The dogs are adorable and so friendly, the kids are missing Jess already. Set in an outstandingly beautiful area of fells waterfalls, minutes away from Silecroft beach, we made many happy memories. Thanks Jim, Anne and Sandra for everything!

“Had a wonderful stay, Anne & Jim are amazing hosts… Took time to show our children the farm animals along with their daughter Sandra.”

Beautiful cottage with gorgeous log burner and playful dog named Jess kept our youngest happy outside for hours. Will definitely return, little slice of heaven out in the country. Lovely locals, highly recommend Bryre Cafe tea room and The Brown Cow Inn for food

Catherine October 2023

“We had a wonderful stay at Fell View.”

The owners Anne and Jim were so helpful and friendly, suggesting places to visit. The cottage itself was immaculately clean and well equipped with everything you need. Beautifully furnished it was lovely to snuggle up next to the log burner each evening. We also loved staying on a working farm and enjoyed looking out across the fields and over to Black Combe each day. The boys loved playing fetch with Jess the farm dog

- Catherine, October 2023
Carole September 2023

“It was an absolute pleasure to get up to the stunning view of the fells from the cottage which was also ideally placed to visit many other locations offering amazing views of the coast as well as the fells and lakes.”

The cottage is lovely, well equipped, clean, comfortable and well maintained. Anne and Jim are friendly and welcoming hosts and obviously take pride in providing a good standard of accommodation. I would definitely recommend Fell View cottage and would love to return.

“We had an absolutely fabulous week in Fell View Cottage.”

Fantastically well-appointed, high levels of cleanliness and one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. The owners, Anne & Jim, although busy with their farm, could not do enough for us including when I took unwell later in the week. This property is a must for anyone wanting to visit the Lake District. Will definitely be back!

- Christian, June 2023
Alison June 2023

“Beautiful cottage - everything you need for a home to home holiday.”

Very clean and comfortable with all the appliances you could ever need. Clear instructions and lots of help with what to do in the area. Jim and Anne were the best hosts - one of our best ever holidays.

- Alison, June 2023
Steve May 2023

“A great holiday .”

My only slight problem is the position of the tv , being elevated and to one side of a large window ,we had to close the curtains to watch it , and could really only sit on one settee ( opposing settees ) to watch it . Being retired were telly addicts . Because of only using one settee the cushions are uncomfortable . Aside from that it is a superb cottage with a lovely view of the fells

- Steve, May 2023
Glyn April 2023

“The property was clean and maintained to a very good standard in a good location for exploring the surrounding countryside.”

Beatrice April 2023

“We stayed in Fell View cottage for nearly two weeks.”

It was the perfect place from where to start exploring the Lake District with both, the fells and the coast nearby. The cottage was clean and very well equipped. Even a rainy day was enjoyable, it was very cosy with a fire in the log burner. Our hosts were lovely and approachable. We would definitely recommend this cottage and hope to be back sometime!

- Beatrice, April 2023
Anne January 2023

“We loved that the cottage had been converted with such care and every opportunity was taken to make sure we had all we need for our stay.”

The hosts, Anne, Jim and family were lovely and friendly and we enjoyed exploring this part of Cumbria, with the coast on one side and the Western fells on the other.

- Anne, January 2023
Lucinda December 2022

“We’ve just got back from a wonderful two night stay at Fell View Cottage.”

The cottage is lovely and cosy, (especially with the log burner), in a peaceful location with beautiful views. It was perfect for our relaxing getaway in between Christmas and new year. Anne and Jim greeted us and made us feel at home, and left us welcome treats was a nice surprise. Would definitely come back and stay, we loved it. Thank you!

- Lucinda, December 2022
Yulia November 2022

“We’ve had a lovely stay in the cottage.”

Everything is made with love and attention to detail in this place. The cottage remains warm for a long time thanks to the modern electric radiators and a wood burning stove. The bathroom is very warm which is great! The cottage has got everything you need - the kitchen is fully equipped, the towels and bedding are provided, extra blankets are available too. We loved that it was located on a working farm, our kids enjoyed seeing the animals (cows, horses, donkey) and playing with the cutest friendly dogs. The view outside the cottage is amazing - green fields and mountains. The owners are very welcoming and friendly. We liked everything about our stay and wished we could stay for longer. We would definitely recommend this place.

- Yulia, November 2022
Julie October 2022

- Julie, October 2022
Joanne July 2022

“A lovely cottage in a beautiful location, with welcoming owners.”

We had a great time walking in the area, and a comfortable cottage to come back to. All the beds were comfortable and cottage well equipped. Lovely patio area to admire the views on a sunny evening. We also loved all the animals on the farm especially the donkey and Jess the dog.

- Joanne, July 2022
Richard July 2022

“We stayed at Fell Cottage in early July, and were blessed with some very clear weather for our stay.”

The cottage and setting were amazing, so peaceful, we just couldn't get enough of that view. The cottage was very well stocked, comfortable and decorated beautifully. I'm not sure anything could be improved. We will be visiting again. Thank you.

- Richard, July 2022
Phoebe June 2022

“Everything was lovely & the property was even prettier than we imagined.”

The views were spectacular and it was so shocking to find such a lovely beach only an 8 minute drive away in Silecroft!! Would love to visit again some day.

- Phoebe, June 2022
Kenneth June 2022

“Jim & Ann we're fantastic hosts.”

Very friendly and all the pet's. Cottage was lovely and clean lovely view from garden, only sounds was the cows. The only problem was there's no signal for mobile phone in area but there's WiFi in the cottage that works great. We had a week of sunshine

- Kenneth, June 2022
Kate June 2022

“A great stay in a lovely property with fantastic hosts.”

The views were incredible, and the location was ideal for getting out exploring. Thanks for a wonderful holiday, we'll definitely be back!

- Kate, June 2022
Suzanne May 2022

“A lovely warm welcomed from Anne & Jim.”

The cottage was immaculate. Beautifully furnished and decorated, with a high level of attention to detail. Extremely comfortable beds. A really good shower, almost a wet room really. We loved meeting and playing catch with the dogs and being introduced to the gorgeous, placid, mint loving Rio. Although the cottage is on a farm, up a very bumpy farm track, it’s close enough to the general store in Bootle so that any shopping can be done. There’s a Tesco down the road in Millom. I think, if I had one observation, it would be regarding where the TV is placed. It’s very high up on the wall, and for those of us wearing varifocals, it made it difficult to watch. It could be lowered a bit without too much bother. This is not a complaint, just an observation. We loved staying at Fell View and can’t recommend it highly enough.

- Suzanne, May 2022
Paul May 2022

“We love Fell View Cottage, the location is exactly where we want to be, the facilities are great and the owners could not be nicer.”

We'll be back (again) thanks

Hayley April 2022

“We had a fantastic holiday at Fell View Cottage.”

The accommodation was very clean and tidy. It had everything we needed. Such a beautiful, cosy cottage with stunning views. The owners were very welcoming. Our children loved being shown around the farm and playing with the owners dogs. Plenty of wood was supplied for the fire and a welcome gift was much appreciated. Would definitely recommend and hopefully would like to return one day. Would recommend walking to the local beach.

- Hayley, April 2022
Michael February 2022

“My companions and i thought the property first class.”

In the kitchen the coffee maker did not have filter papers though not a problem cos i found the cafetiere (which most people use these days) at the back of the cupboard. The tap water could have been hotter and better side lights for reading... Otherwise perfecto!

- Michael, February 2022
Eric January 2022

“Brilliant friendly hosts great location.”

Would highly recommend. Would have given 5 stars for everything but for the bathroom being downstairs and the only source of water. But would gladly go again.Had amazing weather for January

- Eric, January 2022
Bethany December 2021

“We had a great New Years in the cottage, very close to lovely beaches and walks.”

Really helpful information and local suggestions in the guidebook, the waterfall was beautiful (1 hour round walk). Although we didn't get the views due to the winter Lakes weather, the walks we went on were good - over the hills to Broughton (9ish miles) on the fells over Wast Water. Would also reccommend the mini steam train from Ravenglass to Dalegarth. Cottage was great, cosy and welcoming hosts, great price for the quality and location

- Bethany, December 2021
Marion November 2021

“Anne’s accommodation was second to none.”

Beautifully decorated and extremely clean and comfortable. The views are spectacular and I loved waking up to the noise of the farm. The gifts on arrival was much appreciated after a long drive. Couldn’t fault at all

- Marion, November 2021

- Simmi, September 2021
Stephen September 2021

“We had a wonderful relaxing time.”

Our hosts made us very welcome and took the time to chat to us despite the cottage being on a busy farm. The standard of cleanliness and the general amenities were excellent. This area of the Lake District is well worth exploring

- Stephen, September 2021
Bruce July 2021

“Delightful rural location on a working farm.”

Lovely family working the farm and keen to make our stay a happy one. High standard of accommodation but the toilet and shower etc are all downstairs and the bedrooms upstairs.

- Bruce, July 2021
Anthony April 2021

“What a lovely cottage in a lovely setting, perfect.”

The owners run a working farm and we felt very much part of it seeing a newly born calf and lambs, wonderful. The cottage is very well equipped, we wanted for nothing very very comfortable. Lots to do in the area.

- Anthony, April 2021
Toby October 2020

“Beautiful little cottage hidden away in the countryside.”

Lovely owners, friendly and helpful. On a real working farm with some cute animals around; a stunning setting with fells behind and the wild coast a 20 minute walk away. It was cosy and warm especially with the cool little wood stove burning, perfect little romantic getaway. Gorgeous wood interior with a great kitchen. Would go back for sure!

- Toby, October 2020
Colin October 2020

“Driving up the track to our holiday cottage all we saw was peace and tranquillity, set in a beautiful rural location.”

Anne and Jim were amazing hosts, with warm sincere smiles, informing us of the best local places to visit and local eateries. The accommodation was amazing, warm and cosy with great WiFi. Would we visit again? In a heartbeat!

- Colin, October 2020
Robert October 2020

“This warm, cosy cottage is well worth a visit.”

The photographs don’t do justice to the fabulous views. An excellent area to visit which is off the beaten track, with lots to see and do nearby but without the crowds. Thank you to Anne and Jim for the great, peaceful holiday.

- Robert, October 2020
Peter September 2020

“Friendly hosts.”

Picturesque location but don’t try taking a low-slung car down the farm track. No pub in the village but can recommend lunch in the tea room. We were there as a couple and it was ideal but feel that four adults might find it snug, especially downstairs. There is only one toilet and it is located downstairs. This may possibly be an issue in the night. Very quiet part of Cumbria if you want to avoid the crowds and great walking close by.

- Peter, September 2020
Steven September 2020

“Great quiet location for the west lakes, ideal location for walkers and water sports.”

Bit remote for the likes of pubs and restaurants. Friendly easy going hosts. A real working farm which would be wonderful for young family's.

- Steven, September 2020
Tim August 2020

“Great cottage in a peaceful location.”

Really helpful hosts and great for walks to the beach.

- Tim, August 2020
Lynn March 2020

“The cottage was extremely comfortable, cosy and well equipped.”

It was easy to find, the directions were accurate and helpful signs had been provided. There were beautiful views from the cottage, excellent local walks, and plenty of things to do within a short drive, or just a train ride away. The railway station is outside the village, but train trips are well worth trying as the views from the train are spectacular. The local shop is stocked with all the essentials. The cottage is on a working farm with plenty of animals to see, and there are three very well-behaved dogs. The owners are always friendly and helpful, they gave us a warm welcome and were always ready to help with any queries or problems. We have had an excellent holiday and were sad to leave.

- Lynn, March 2020
Andrew January 2020

“A brilliant place to stay, very quiet and peaceful, everything that you need is there, fantastic.”

Luisa December 2019

“Such Lovely Hosts, A Beautiful Family.”

This is such a relaxing Cottage and very clean. My children loved it and didn't want to return home. Waking up to the beautiful view and on a working farm was awesome, a good experience for my city kids. Definitely returning for Longer next time.

- Luisa, December 2019

“It's a lovely cottage on a farm in the countryside with stunning views.”

With 1 bedroom with a double bed and the other with 2 single beds, this cottage is well suited for couples and families alike. The interior is largely high end and might even be too fancy for some people (e.g. We visited the cottage with our 6 month old baby and were scared of staining the nice table cloth so removed it.). The cottage, and in particular the kitchen, is well kitted out; you'll find everything you need to cook a nice meal for the family (you'd only need to bring the food). The owners have also kindly provided a booklet with information about local shops, restaurants and other amenities. They even provided a cot and a high chair for our baby. Where there is room for improvement is the heating arrangement. We visited the cottage in November when it was already quite cold in Bootle. There were no radiators downstairs in the living room and kitchen, only a wood stove which you kept having to load with pre-chopped wood from just outside the cottage. I supposed, while this added to the country feel of the cottage, it could get annoying to keep having to go outside to get the wood and filling up the stove. Also, this meant that you had to be home and awake to keep it warm. In the mornings when we'd come down or when we'd return from a day out, it would be freezing and would take quite some time to warm up after starting the fire. There were radiators upstairs in the bedrooms but they were pre-set and timed so it would sometimes get quite cold there too. It would have been nice to be able to control the heat ourselves. However, after mentioning to Jim and Anne, the owners, that we would like more heat they were more than happy to help and gave us a portable radiator. This helped to some extent but of course that radiator could only be in 1 room at a time. I was most concerned about the heat because of our baby e.g. having to change him in a cold room. The owners, Jim and Anne, and their family are very nice people who were more than happy to help with any query and Jim and his daughter even gave us an informative tour of the farm! And they were very kind to us when we accidentally broke the glass of the wood stove while loading it with wood. I'm not sure if I'd return to the cottage with a baby in the winter but all in all, it was a very nice and cosy place to visit and we'd definitely recommend it.

Nicola August 2019

“The cottage was perfect and we spent a wonderful week there enjoying everything that the area has to offer (including Muncaster Castle, Ravenglass to Eskdale railway and Silecroft beach).”

The cottage was very clean and cosy and everything we needed was provided. Our two young boys enjoyed their time on the farm especially their time in the garden, playing with the farm dogs and the cat. The owners of the farm were very welcoming and friendly and gave us lots of suggestions of things to do in the area. We would definitely recommend the cottage to others and we hope to return in the future. Thank you.

- Nicola, August 2019
Susan August 2019

“The cottage had everything we needed jim and Ann very friendly and helpful.”

- Susan, August 2019
Michelle August 2019

“Anne, Jim and family were such friendly people and allowed us to see the farm animals (including a new born calf) and watch some jobs on the farm which was fascinating for the kids (even though they are teenagers!”

). The cottage was beautiful, spotless and equipped with everything for a relaxing holiday away with children. The beds were really comfy and the cottage really cosy. The views from the cottage are outstanding and so peaceful. There are so many beautiful places to visit all within 30 mins to an hour away. We only wished we could have stayed longer!

Daniel April 2019

“The cottage was in great location for the Coniston and nearby areas, with fantastic views over the local countryside and it's based on a working farm which was a bonus for us and our children.”

The owners - Jim and Anne were fantastic hosts, welcoming us when we arrived and ensuring everything was fine and as expected. The cottage itself was wonderful and really well kitted out with everything you need for a break, whether cooking in or going out it's great a stay. Our children also loved getting to know the farm pets, we felt totally at home from start to end. Dan - Milton Keynes

- Daniel, April 2019
Philip April 2019

“The hosts here were the right balance of friendly and welcoming but left us to enjoy this lovely barn conversion.”

We found a full tea tray with biscuits and a bottle of wine waiting for us on arrival. The beds were super comfy and there were extra blankets if needed. Bringing in the logs and lighting the wood burner was a ritual every evening and it was great to have a limitless supply. The views from the cottage are beautiful and the children loved seeing the horses in the adjacent field. Jim was very kind and showed the children the new lambs and new born calves whilst everyone enjoyed throwing sticks for the farm dogs who are very friendly. The location to the west of the lake district meant we enjoyed peace and quiet away from the crowds, visiting some of the more remote corners including Wast Water but still being only 30 minutes from Coniston. Being so near the coast too meant we could easily reach the beach for walks and the odd family game of football. Bootle is a lovely village with a well stocked shop. We enjoyed a great holiday here and would recommend it to anyone.

- Philip, April 2019
Adele November 2018

“A really cute, well maintained and clean cottage in the middle of the countryside.”

Perfect for hiding away for a few days in front of the log burner.

Matt May 2018

“The cottage was perfect and Anne and Jim were very welcoming and had good advice on where to find dinner and supplies.”

We'd definitely stay there again.

- Matt, May 2018
Richard March 2018

“Phone signal is limited but is available at the bottom of the cottage garden.”

With this in mind a Wi-Fi connection would be ideal within the cottage. ****Owner Response**** I am sorry that you found the phone signal limited in the area, we did have Wifi during your stay and I would have been able to assist you with this. I have now updated the Wifi to a super fast broadband which I hope you will be able to experience should you come back to our property in future.

- Richard, March 2018
Andrew August 2017

“Jim and Anne were excellent hosts and went over and above what you expect from owners.”

The both made us and our children welcome and allowed the boys to help on the farm which enriched their holiday.

- Andrew, August 2017
William March 2017

Roz October 2016

“Lovely cottage and owners.”

Spec of cottage was a high standard , there is a shop near by , 2 mins in car or a 15 min walk. On a working farm with cows and horses. If you like remote then this is the place but also an hours drive gets you to most tourist attractions. Walks from cottage as well for a day out.

- Roz, October 2016
Roger September 2016

“The owners and hosts, Anne and Jim, were most welcoming and the little touches in the cottage - a bottle of wine, fresh flowers - were delightful.”

On our day of departure we were even given a jar of homemade Fell View beetroot chutney. This type of attention to detail makes holidays that bit more special, personal and memorable. The cottage is perfectly sited as a central "hub" to visit and enjoy the amazing beauty spots of the western Lake District for walking and cycling (the Eskdale Trail was a great ride!) or to visit the favoured tourist attractions. If you want to stay put at the cottage then you can enjoy a cozy fire or sit in the swing seat on the patio, drinking wine and watching the house martins dart across the sky. The holiday was the peaceful retreat we had sought and we were well rewarded!

- Roger, September 2016
Christopher August 2016

“We all had an amazing stay at Fell view cottage, the owners were very welcoming and friendly and helpful in recommending local places.”

The cottage itself was very well equipped and nicely furnished, comfortable and stylish. The views from the cottage were exceptional. lots of things to do locally for all of us (including our 11 year old son) We will definitely look forward to returning back to the cottage very soon.

- Christopher, August 2016
Suzie July 2016

We were also given total privacy and did not feel intruded upon in any way.

The property

A detached barn conversion, on a working beef farm, close to Bootle on the western side of the beautiful Lake District National Park.

This is a charming cottage, which is an ideal base for families and friends wishing to explore this lovely part of the country.

This delightful cottage is superbly presented with two bedrooms, a shower room and open plan living accommodation with beamed ceilings, underfloor heating and woodburning stove and a well-equipped kitchen with dining area.

Outside, there is a private enclosed yard with a raised patio area, with views across to the beautiful Black Combe, which during late summer is festooned with heather.

This is an ideal spot for you to relax with a refreshing drink or to dine alfresco.

There is a footpath running from the cottage down to the coast, and the award-winning beach at Silecroft is just five miles away, where you can find a lovely inn, pony trekking and a 9-hole golf course.

To travel further afield, you can embark on the West Coast railway line at Bootle Station and travel up the coast to Ravenglass, where you can hop on-board the Ravenglass & Eskdale narrow gauge railway, which will take you up the Eskdale Valley to the foot of Scafell.

As well as the trekking centre in Silecroft, there is also a wonderful opportunity to visit the Cumbrian Heavy Horse Centre and participate on a ride over the fells on a Clydesdale, Shire or Ardennes horse.

At the end of the day, return to this fabulous cottage and settle down in front of the cosy woodburning stove, or enjoy the beautiful clear sky for fabulous sunsets on Black Combe and starry moonlit nights.

A perfect place to stay at any time of the year.
