"A wonderful ‘home from home’ in a superb position off the beaten track yet within a few footsteps of wonderful walks and within easy reach of all the facilities of Grasmere. We have walked along the footpath outside numerous times over the years not realising we were missing such a hidden gem. The cottage was immaculate and had everything we needed. We’ll be back! "

Tip:
"Stock up on provisions and then you can literally park your car and walk on the fells from the doorstep. Alcock Tarn, Helm Crag, Fairfield Horseshoe to name just a few are all accessible - and we’d highly recommend a beer or glass of wine on the south facing terrace to enjoy the wonderful views after a day. Bliss! "

"We had a fabulous few days at Brockstone, enjoying wonderful views and a variety of walks from the door step. The house is spacious and very comfortable (super king bed was a treat!) and set in an idyllic spot and within walking distance of Grasmere or 5 mins away by car so suited us perfectly. The garden is so pretty and we enjoyed sitting out with our morning coffee listening to a variety of birds and gazing down on Rydal water. All in all magical and we shall look forward to returning for an escape back to nature as soon as poss."

Tip:
"Wonderful walk up Loughrigg from the cottage.
Applepie shop in Ambleside for treats.
Zeferelli's in Ambleside for great cinema and dinner deal.
Walk to Grasmere from the cottage very pretty."

"Very quaint and quiet rural location which is ideal for anyone who enjoys the outdoors. Fantastic views even when dull and wet. Great communication with the owners. "

Tip:
"Dog friendly places to eat, Ambleside Inn and locally Tweedies bar, Heidis and the Good Sport in Grasmere. Take your walking boots or a mountain bike !"

"Wonderful location, lovely welcoming, comfortable cottage with great log burner and extremely helpful owners whose extra touches made the break even better. Lots of useful information provided by the owners which came in very handy. We would thoroughly recommend and will definitely return as soon as we can!"

Tip:
"Walks around Rydal Water and to Grasmere are easy enough although some steep uphills along the way! Recommend Tweedies bar in Grasmere. Logs and Kindling from the BP garage by Ambleside. "
