Visitors' Book
"Having had a lot of experience with cottages, we can say that Woodside is among the best we have been in. It is comfortable, quiet and well equipped."
"Lovely comfortable cottage with all modern amenities. Fantastic location, quiet, beautiful views but easy access to everywhere. Brockhole great for children, especially early morning and evening."
"The standard of accommodation is excellent, very comfortable and ideally laid out for two couples."
"Wonderful break in excellent accommodation. The house and the way it has been decorated and furnished is a credit to the owners. However the most praise should be for their choice of location - fabulous!"
A Message from the Owners
"We first saw Woodside on a perfect summer's day. The little lane off the Windermere to Ambleside road lead to a peaceful site. The lovely former farm buildings had just been converted into high quality homes, all in local stone yet packed with modern appliances. The views sold it to us - Lake Windermere sparkling in the sunshine.
Since that day, we have seen all the seasons from this lovely site. We love its position - central for the main sights, lots of places to eat in easy reach, and pleasant walks on the doorstep. We have enjoyed it with our young family - something for all ages.
We hope that you will find Woodside your home from home too."
Property Location

The area offers much to the holidaymaker - with Ambleside for shopping and eating out, and a good pub nearby at Troutbeck Bridge. The Lake District Visitor Centre at Brockhole, just a few minutes stroll away, has footpaths to Lake Windermere and lake cruises in season. For a special night out the Merewood Hotel is within easy walking distance.

Accommodation: Ground floor entrance into the hallway where you can 'decamp' and leave your outdoor gear. The main living area at first floor level is a split level open room which offers a sitting area to the front (flat screen TV, DVD, video, CD/radio and decorative electric woodburning stove) with lake views. The open-plan dining room and integrated kitchen to the rear of the house at a slightly lower level offers a social atmosphere when preparing meals. Walk-in boiler/drying cupboard.

The bedrooms are situated on the top and ground floors - a double room on the ground floor having en-suite with shower, basin and wc and a further large bedroom with two single beds and adjacent bathroom (with bath) at the top of the house. This arrangement would be ideal for families or two couples wishing to stay together having their own facilities. (Sleeps 2 price applies when one bedroom only is used.)

Furnishings throughout are modern and stylish with good use of light woods, fitted carpets and gas central heating - Woodside will offer a warm welcome in any season.
