Welcome to your guide to the Lake
District's best Cottages and Self-catering
Accommodation
There are many, many places you can rent in the Lakes, and a host of
companies competing to offer you a vast selection of rental properties. We
have selected a few of the ones which stand out, either for reasons of
location, facility or price. In every case, early booking is likely to
mean you get what you want: in high season and school holidays, many of
the better properties go really quickly.
There are two sections on the page: at the
top, holiday cottage rental companies and below,
details of
individual properties.

Sally's Cottages

This is a company run by Sally &
Robert, a husband and wife team, who manage a wide range of
high-quality
self-catering holiday cottages located mostly on the
Western side of the Lake District – in the delightful valleys of Eskdale,
Ravenglass, Wasdale,
Ennerdale and around Cockermouth. This is a more remote part of the Lake District
with a much slower and more traditional pace of life than the busier centres of Windermere
and
Ambleside.
The tranquillity is profound; there are hundreds of
delightful
walks, which you can enjoy along the valley floor, or on the ascents
of some of the most
spectacular fells in England. And you'll certainly be able to find
what you need, for there's a whole range of properties from those
with one bedroom right up to a property which sleeps twenty-six! Most of the cottages
can accommodate
pets - and most are in easy walking distance of fine pubs offering
traditional Cumbrian food and excellent local ales.
