The Laburnums really has been furnished to an excellent standard, and sits in the quiet, charming Cumbrian village of Askham, with Ullswater just a short drive away. The semi-detached house has been thoughtfully designed, from the large welcoming entrance hall with original 19th century staircase, to the cosy living room with wood burner, and large open plan kitchen/dining room no expense has been spared to provide a luxury retreat to escape and enjoy your holiday in. The large, private, south-facing enclosed garden, with patio and barbecue area makes the ideal spot to gather with the family to enjoy an al fresco supper as the sun sets. The attractive village of Askham is centred around two village greens and has a well-stocked shop/off licence which is open seven days a week and two pubs, all within walking distance of the property. In the summer families can enjoy the outdoor heated swimming pool in the village. Not only does it have a 20 metre pool staffed by lifeguards but there is also a paddling pool, refreshments kiosk and picnicking area. This location offers easy access to the Lake District through Ullswater and Haweswater, or for the more adventurous to walk on the Helton Fells, enjoy water sports on Ullswater, or explore the beautiful Eden Valley. Ullswater can be reached by foot, 3 miles over the fells, and once there you can enjoy a scenic walk around the lake or take a trip on one of the cruisers which set sale from Glenridding and Pooley Bridge. There is also Lowther Birds of Prey Centre and Lowther Castle and Gardens, just a few minutes drive from the house. Shop, pub and restaurant 100 yards.

Loved the Laburnums

We liked it so much last year, we came back again. It was just as good, if not better than last year - we want to return again. Thank you and well done Brian!

Superb as before.

Superb as before. Pricey but wonderful and probably worth the expense and even the luxury of not filling it. We'll be back. Already booked for the end of June.

Great house and we've enjoyed staying on several occasions.

Great house and we've enjoyed staying on several occasions. Only two quibbles are that the price seems to have gone up year on year and at over 900 for an out of season week it is quite expensive and some of the equipment didn't seem to work (e.g. microwave and kitchen hand blender).

The house was perfect for our requirements! Our family gathering was made complete with all the amenities offered even down to children's board games and spacious garden! The close proximity of several attractions in the area was a bonus too! 10 out of 10 ! Thank you for helping to make our family gathering full of memorable moments!

Great getaway location

Great well equipped house, finished to a lovely standard as a home from home. Good location to access the North East Lakes with nearby attractions, walks and pubs as well as quick access to other areas. Good circular walk from the house and the view from the top of the hill is worth the walk ! Would definitely recommend to others and especially good for families.

As wonderful as ever.

As wonderful as ever. Prices are a bit steep out of the school holidays as witnessed by the lack of occupancy this month but it is our third visit and I will be back again once I've saved up!
