Long weekend at Buttermere

The drive to Buttermere was interesting with very tight country lanes, however, once there, the views were most definitely worth it. On arrival at Buttermere cottage we thought the place was a little dated and tired but had everything we needed and was more than suitable for our needs. The one time we required assistance from the maintenance side they were quick to help and sorted the problem with no fuss. The kitchen had everything you need to make the odd meal, but there is a small pub in walking distance in case you want to eat out. (you need to book as only a small pub) Overall, Buttermere delivered and provided exactly what we needed for a few days in the Lake district.

A lovely short break

Ourselves & our 2 dogs really enjoyed our stay at Buttermere cottage. It was excellent value for money. The cottage is well presented and has everything you need. The views from here are just stunning & the dogs enjoyed some of their walks off lead with plenty of fields around that are well fenced. The bed was super comfortable & the location is very peaceful. We would definitely stay here again in the future. Perhaps on the other site for a change of scenery. It made a perfect base for relaxing, walking & exploring the lakes.

Home away from home

We had a wonderful and relaxing week at Buttermere. We took our 8month old. High chairs and travel cot available from the laundry room or can request. We brought our own cot in the end but high chair very useful. Views are lovely. Close to a lovely pub called the Tower Bank Arms (book in advance for food!) and 2 and a bit mile walk to hawkshead, or just under 2 to the car and passenger ferry that goes to ferry nab. Washing and dryer in laundry room very handy. Also a drying rack. Picnic benches outside. Kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay here again.
