Communication was excellent. The location was rural, but not too far out of town if you needed supplies or a meal out. Very peaceful location. A well-equipped kitchen. Very good overall.

Clean, peaceful, and private

A perfect spot for those who a crave a cool, dark, and quiet Fall getaway. Peaceful and private, clean and cozy. Lovely owners who you only encounter if you choose to, because they’re respectful of your privacy. Would, without hesitation, stay there again when we need a place that’s in proximity to the Lake District.

Exactly as advertised, clean, modern and a great base for exploring area.

The owners were welcoming and resolved a couple of very minor issues straight away. Would highly recommend a stay here, ideally located for the Lakes. Our only recommendation would be a microwave but there was a very good oven and hob so a very minor point

Thank you for your lovely review. Coomb Views location is handy for both the South and the North Lakes and all of its attractions. A couple of our guests have suggested a microwave for which we are in a process of incorporating into the design of the contemporary kitchen. Hope to welcome you back to Coomb View in the future.

Wonderful cottage

This is a wonderful cottage in a beautiful landscape. We got a warm welcome with lovely homemade bread that was delicious. This cottage is in a row of three, but still very private. If you wish to plan with a larger group you could inquire about the availability of the other two. If we are in the neighborhood, we would definately book again.

Excellent!

Lovely cottage, equipped with everything you could need! The location is wonderful and is perfect for a peaceful relaxing holiday. There are many places to visit and restaurants/cafés in which to eat. A good place for a base as nothing is too far to drive for a day out to enjoy the stunning Lakes/Yorkshire Dales scenery and gorgeous towns. The lovely owners are always available should you have any queries but tactfully remain in the background. All in all - brilliant! Thank you Diane and Brian.

Coomb View

IF you're looking to get away from it all, this is the place to be: wonderful rural setting with sheep as your nearest neighbours! Owners live on the premises but were very respectful of our privacy. Accommodation was clean, cosy and well-equipped. Setting was beautiful and away from tourist areas, albeit with Kendal a short drive away and lakes reachable within 30-45 minutes. Thank you Brian and Diane!

It's all so quiet..shhh shhh!

This place was literally in a middle of nowhere. At the same time so close to Kendal where we found anything we could think of. Not a sound, not a light in a middle of the night. Apart from sheep just wandering around the teritory :) Spotless clean. Finished by high standarts. Everything was there. From towels to milk. I am sure the hosts would go an extra mile (maybe even 2 or so) to make sure their guests are feeling as comfortable as possible. For my next trip i will have you in my mind, especially if the stakes are high. :) Best of Luck! S&D

Stunning conversion in beautiful surroundings

Coomb View is a fantastic conversion, finished to a high standard. We were mountain biking in the lakes and found it the perfect place to stay. 10 mins drive from Kendal but rural enough to wake up with the sheep!! We are returning in the summer and would recommend to anyone looking to retreat for some peace and quiet in perfect surroundings. Many Thanks Eliot & Charlotte

Really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house

We were at Lake District and stayed in Coomb View from July 3-July9, 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The farm house was beautifully renovated, very modern and have all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Brian and Diane are great host. Upon arrival, there were milk, orange juice, bottle of cold water, cookies and tea and coffee already stocked. That was a wonderful gesture and greatly appreciated. The surrounding of the farm house is beautiful and peaceful. Many mornings, we woke up to the sound of bleating sheep which we love. It is very easy to get into Kendal which is only 5 miles away and has grocery stories, restaurants etc that are only 10 minutes away. We loved that the house is away from all the hustle bustle of the Lake District tourism but is closed enough that all the hikes and sightseeing are short driving distance. The only thing that we are not quit keen on is the "open shower" where there is no shower door/curtain and the water does splatter half of the bathroom. The tiles are heated so it really is not that big a deal, just not our preference. Wonderful place and definitely will stay here again if we are in Lake District again.

Kendal does have all the amenities our of all our guests needs. Restaurants, bars, cafes, banks, beauty salons, supermarkets to name a few.

Amazing Location and Stay

We stayed at the cottage 5th-8th may and it was amazing, the weather was perfect and the location is practical, 10 mins away from local village and motorway. We had a warm welcome and the cottage had everything we need to cook at home. We loved this place because it was so peaceful and quiet, we were never disturbed and we we given our privacy, however they were always a knock on the door away from any requests or queries. We give this a 5/5 for everything, we could not fault this stay in any way, there were a few comments about construction but when we stayed, there wasn't any noise apart from the local sheep! We would definitely stay again without hesitation.

About the host

Hosted by Brian & Diane Potter

Host profile image
Let us introduce ourselves our names are Brian and Diane and We live on a 100 acre farm just outside Kendal on the edge of the Lake District and as a family we enjoy walking, travelling and spending time in this outstanding area of beauty.

We undertook an extensive programme of converting our attached barn to create a home to an extremely high standard and wish to share all the benefits of this beautiful area and our holiday home has to offer

Why they chose this property

Having lived in Cumbria all of our lives we feel the peaceful and tranquil location of our barn conversion is perfect for a relaxing break as well as having the Lakes and Mountains on our doorstep. Coomb View offers everything in a stunning location. Something we have never tired off or taken for granted !

What makes this property unique

The area and scenery is amazing and we feel very fortunate to be able to live and work here !! The surrounding area and its abundance of attractions and activities will appeal to families, couples, walkers and cyclists.

The M6 motorway is very accessible and Rail and Transport Links are excellent.
