Perfect stay at Peacock Cottage. We absolutely loved the space and location. It was a great getaway and wouldn’t hesitate from coming back!
Stayed with friends and dog for weekend. Great home from home, exceeded expectations. Will stay again for sure.
We really enjoyed our stay at Peacock Cottage; comfortable, well equipped, peaceful but right in the heart of the Lakes and easy to get around! Fabulous welcome basket was such a treat and we loved the views and Log Stoves! Thanks for such a warm welcome!”
Our second visit and just as nice as last year. Great location and great family house. We love the space and also cost nature of the property. Great to spend evenings playing board games and sitting around the table talking. Very clean and lovely hamper of goodies was so appreciated, thank you
Peacock cottage is beautiful. pictures don’t do it justice. it’s the perfect spot for walking from the door to tarn hows and wray castle. also great distance from outgate inn, a few boozy steps! and the drunken duck inn. the cottage itself is a great space, had great games and facilities! ensuite bathrooms is always great too. thanks for having us!
This was a wonderful house, it was spacious and well set up. The location was great, next to a lovely pub with great staff and good food. Walks nearby were lovely. It was wonderful to be so warmly welcomed.
If you are considering a stay at Peacock Cottage my advice would simply be…just book it now! A beautiful home away from home in a great location for everywhere in The Lakes with fantastic hosts. I would not hesitate to recommend this house.
Thank you so much for an amazing holiday. Peacock Cottage is just so beautiful , a real homely home . . Great location and all the little touches throughout the cottage was fantastic (kitchen, bathroom etc – all there). Thank you for the stunning welcome basket, it was such a lovely surprise and greatly appreciated, that lemon drizzle cake, yummmmm. Great location, easy drive to all the wonderful places around the lakes. Great pub next door for food, walks outside your door. Pictures of the cottage do not do it justice – personally, great place to stay. Hope to return one day.
We all felt instantly at home in Peacock Cottage. A lovely spacious cottage with so much character and very well equipped. After a day in the mountains the sauna was bliss. We will all be coming back! Thank you 🙂
This cottage is gorgeous, the photos don’t do it justice! Had a brilliant 3 night stay with a group of friends and would be very keen to visit again. Location is fab, just a short drive to Ambleside and the local pub next door did fantastic food. I couldn’t recommend Peacock cottage more.
This property is incredible! Upon our arrival the whole group was spell bound by how wonderful the cottage is. The facilities are brilliant, with plenty of space and bathrooms for a group of 6 adults to socialise together and also relax individually. The sauna is a special luxury to have on a walking holiday! The location is great and we took full advantage of all the walks you can do straight from the door step. The local pub being next door was an added treat and we all got to try some of the local ales. Thanks for a great home for our weekend in the Lakes. We hope to be back again sometime!
Peacock Cottage is a beautiful little house. It was cosy with the two log fires. It was beautifully clean and very comfortable. The location was great. We had a really wonderful trip. I would definitely book again.
This is an exceptional cottage great location between Ambleside and Hawkshead. Walks from the door or within very easy reach. Great food next door and good local Ale and lovely wine. The cottage is well equipped and so comfortable. Parking for two cars and lovely garden. The cottage sleeps 6 and is very cosy. The added feature is a lovely sauna which was great fun with a stunning downstairs shower Highly recommend this property.
Exceptionally well equipped so we were very happy to mostly self cater. Loved the whole place. Enjoyed the sauna. Some nice short walks available from the front door. Handy for the pub. Recommended.
Peacock Cottage is a wonderful place to stay in the Lake District. There was enough parking for 3 small cars. The cottage itself is beautiful and located in a peaceful village. The welcome hamper was much appreciated as well. I hope to stay at Peacock Cottage again in the near future!
The cottage is in a great location for walks around the Lakes (Wray Castle, Ambleside, Grassmere), and for evenings in or for drinks / food at the Outgate Inn. Couldn’t have stayed anywhere better. The cottage was perfect and we had everything we needed for a great stay. The welcome basket with delicious food and wine was an unexpected tre
We enjoyed a relaxing time in this charming cottage with lots of character. Loved the heated floors and shower in the sauna area and the tasty larder basket! Great pub next door and easy access to public walking paths. I recommend taking a small car to the lakes as the roads are very narrow.
Wonderful cottage in a spectacular setting . Two great local pubs . Lovely comfy beds . Great gardens and everything you need for a perfect holiday. The welcome hamper was a great touch . Thank you . We will be back .
The property was in the perfect location for us. Right next to the Outgate inn, which was so hospitable! It had everything we needed, and the sauna was great especially as we had a bit of a cold rainy spell. It was nice to have a little arrival hamper. We are looking to come back and stay next tine we return to the lakes.
A great place to stay – it feels like a home that is loved rather than a sterile holiday cottage.
Really enjoyed Peacocks, it is a fantastic cottage and great for the 6 of us. Great location for our few days, unfortunately the weather wasn’t so great but we still found lots to do in Ambleside, Hawkshead and Grasmere. The Outgate inn was really good, staff fantastic and food really good
