⭐️Stunning Holiday Home⭐️ - Centre of Coniston - 3 bedroom
Puddleduck House is an extremely stylish and spacious three bedroom house situated right in the centre of the stunning village of Coniston, in the Lake District National Park. Surrounded by gorgeous mountain scenery, the property has two large receptions (inc. feature log-burner), well-equipped kitchen, downstairs WC, three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, garden and a spacious garage offering parking for two cars. 1 min walk from the village and 8-10 mins from the Lake. Super-fast WiFi.
Puddleduck House is a fantastic house for holidaying in the Lake District. Being situated right in the heart of the village (with no nasty hills to climb to get to and from the pub!) it is close to everything - the lake, the mountains, the walks, the pubs, restaurants and takeaways! The house is very spacious and you have a large, comfortable lounge with wall-mounted TV, feature log-burner and comfy leather sofas. The dining room has a large table with seating for 6, plus a highchair should you need one. The kitchen is very well equipped - with microwave, cooker and hob, fridge/freezer, washing machine (there is a tumble dryer in the garage too), dishwasher and even a slow cooker - ideal for coming back to after a long day's walking and sightseeing! There are plenty of cupboards for storing food and the cupboards/draws are very well-equipped with everything you should need for cooking up a storm! On the ground floor there is also a toilet.
On the first floor there are two bedrooms - one has a double bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside tables and also has the convenience of an en-suite shower room and WC. The other, very spacious, bedroom can either be a family room with two twin beds or a super-comfy superking bed. There is a wardrobe, ornamental fireplace and chest of drawers.
On the top floor (can be a master suite) there is the master bedroom which enjoys views across to the mountains and has a kingsize bed, double built-in wardrobes, dressing table and chest of drawers. All of the bedrooms have large mirrors and electrical sockets. The master bathroom, also on the top floor, has fantastic views of Coniston Old Man and the pretty houses dotted around the base of the fells. There is a very luxurious roll-top bath and a separate shower cubicle, WC, wash hand basin plus storage for bathroom effects.
Outside the kitchen door is a small back yard with bistro set and gate to private path, across which is the garage. The garage is very spacious and long, with parking for two cars. The garage houses the tumble dryer. To the rear of the garage there is a pretty little garden with patio and grass - and a picnic bench from where you can gaze up at the mountains with a cup of tea or something stronger! A BBQ is provided - ideal for warmer months!
We strive really hard to make sure your holiday in Puddleduck House is memorable and relaxing ... giving you the chance to totally unwind from the stresses and strains of daily life :)

Thank you Nick for your kind review. So glad you had a lovely stay at Puddleduck and enjoyed the beautiful location. Hope to have you back in the near future😊
We had a lovely 8 day stay in this home from home. Easy process to book, fantastic detailed instructions from the owner. A very well equipped house with everything you could possibly need. We had a wonderful stay, with glorious weather and so what more could you ask for. Would definitely recommend.

Thanks for your review Cheryl, you really did get the weather. Glad you liked the house and how well equipped it is for our guests. take care Joy
We chose Puddleduck House for its super location and loved the welcoming feel of the place. It has everything one needs for a relaxed, comfortable stay; well equipped kitchen, a large dining table with comfy chairs, plenty of seating in the lounge and very comfy beds.
There was a plentiful supply of hot water and delicious smelling soap, nice white towels and a generous number of toilet rolls!
We didn’t use the garden as it was wet and windy for our stay. Everyone we met in the street was very cheerful and the pubs in the village are super.
We highly recommend the property and we’re thankful that the owners were excellent communicators as VRBO didn’t send any check in information attached to their ‘here are the keys’ email!!
Excellent all round . Minor niggle only 5 eating knives , not enough loo paper & top bathroom mirror set too high for shorties ! Apart from that excellent & would rebook .
The property was well decorated and ideal for our stay. We had a slight problem with the central heating, which, unfortunately could not be rectified as parts were required for the repair. Fortunately the weather wasn't to cold, the property was in an ideal location for local amenities of which we took advantage.

Thanks Alan, yes glad we got you sorted with a few bedroom heaters and the log fire was available. We have since had the Nest system fixed and unfortunately the 'heat link' that went down was according to the engineer was something I would have been unable to fix without a replacement which has now been sorted. But your group were so very understanding and just glad the weather was pleasent and didnt disrupt your stay, thanks for your understanding, regards Joy
Absolutely lovely house. Very clean on arrival and everything you need for a stay. All the bedrooms are large and the beds are very comfortable. We used the garage all week to park but there was always space on the road outside the front of the house. Pleasantly surprised to find Netflix and Amazon all logged in on the smart tv! The house is only a 10 minute walk down to the lake and we visited there 4 times in the week as there is lots of lovely walks and the Bluebird Cafe is fantastic. There are plenty of places to eat in Coniston, we went to Enzos and Sara’s. We were very happy with our stay, the house is lovely and we even used the log burner a few times in the evening. Would definitely recommend Puddleduck and will be returning.

About the host
Hosted by Joy Livermore
I love the great outdoors and have been lucky to have the lake district pretty much on my doorstep my whole life. Now with my husband and three kids we often come to the lake district and do a wide range of activities whether that be fell walking/running, mountain biking, kayaking, swimming. But we fell in love with the tradional lake district feel of Coniston and just love it up here. We bought our first holiday home in Coniston back in 2015 and have never looked back.
Why they chose this property
My husband and I along with some great home renovation experts really brought Puddleduck to life, we really do treat it as a home from home and as such that means it is in our eyes to a high standard, thats not just for our guests but for my family and friends too. Its a fab place to stay and close to everything in Coniston so you don't even have to get the car out unless your going further afield. The house has everything you need and I am sure you would have a great stay too.
What makes this property unique
The back garden we have has perfect views of the famous Coniston Old Man and Grizedale forest. Within a 10-15 min walk you can be at lake Consiton taking in those early morning views
