Nearby, between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw or the famous Catbells, there really is something for everyone. Visit Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Jennings Brewery and Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the Bassenthwaite Lake, or take a fabulous boat trip around Derwentwater. With plenty of attractions for the kids, lovely parks and the nearby Lake District Wildlife Park this is a great Lakeland destination whatever the time of year.

The collection day for the rubbish needs changing in the cottage guide to Wednesday from Tuesday.. The cottage is a really good one and the provision of logs especially welcomed.

The property is actually much bigger in real life than the photographs show.. We chose the Cottage for it's secluded location and we were not disappointed the activity centre being close by may put some people off but we hardly heard them during our stay. Newlands Valley is very much a rural part of the Lake District with nice walks close by and with Derwent water not too far away the lake Taxi to Keswick made for some nice outings.

Excellent cottage, in a lovely peaceful location.. Stair Cottage is both luxurious and comfortable, with many little extras such as toiletries and kitchen essentials provided, as well as blankets to snuggle under in the lounge. This is the standard which all cottages should aim for. We also enjoyed a great variety of walks, long and short, from the door. Having easy access to a pub with food about 10 minutes' walk away was an added bonus.

Will definitely return.

I booked stair because it looked so Good in the pictures, and wasnt disappointed when we got inside, this is with out doubt the best place we have stayed in, you can immediately feel that the owners have done what they can to make you feel welcome, it is amply stocked with everything that you will need to make your stay pleasurable.
The adventure centre wasn't an issue, in fact it was quite good fun seeing the group's do there stuff in the trees and the zip wires etc.(take time to explore the garden through the gate on the right)
The river at the bottom of the garden was brilliant, first day a mere trickle, second day after 12hrs of rain was a raging torrent,
It's unusual to find a property where the owners trust the guests and this is hopefully reciprocated by the guests looking after the property more, the little messages around leaving instructions on the heating and showers are very friendly and not like the usual do this do that stuff.
This is clearly a place where the owners stay, so from our point of view it needs to be respected for that.
Without repeating what previous reviews have said, you won't be disappointed if you book stair cottage.
The super kingsize bed was super comfy, very warm every where,a real home from home.
A fantastic kitchen fully equipped with everything.
Most of our walks were from stair cottage and ended at stair, your right in the fells but with lots of low level walks.newlands valley is so green and lush (mid May) a brilliant part of the lakes, much better than the langdales.
This is a top draw guest cottage with a fantastic family bathroom. We feel very lucky to have found this place and would definitely come back.
There are no negatives we have stayed in many many places for the same rate and they have ranged from very poor to ordinary to good. Stair is at the top of the pile, plus there are lots of extras that just make this a memorable visit.
The info folder is clean and tidy unlike some places that just can't be bothered, it's packed with useful info.
Book this place, you won't be disappointed. We already have for next year.

Excellent location with hiking out the door. Luxurious and spacious with very well appointed eat-in kitchen- just like being at home. Even had a Nespresso machine- lots of herbs, spices, olive oil etc. Beautiful view from dining area to Newland Beck. LR with wood stove and gorgeous couches was great in cool evenings. Bedroom was huge with soaker tub for after hike relaxing. We were 2 couples and it was perfect as we ate in most nights and the well equipped kitchen made it easy. Keswick is only 10 minutes away. Best rental we have had in several years. Will be going back for sure.

We have stoped in many holiday cottages but to date this is the best by far.Everthing that was said about this delightful cottage was true. It was luxuriously appointed with attention to detail throughtout with many extras once you got there. After a hard day walking on the fells it was heaven to relax in a deep bubble bath whilst looking out across the garden. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need and was light bright and modern and a great place to chill out with a glass of wine watching the squirrel stealing the food from the biord feeeder! The location was perfect for walking and meant we never had to take the car. We would recommend this property to anybody looking for a touch of luxury in the Lakes.

Cottage was absolutely gorgeous, exactly as pictured... luxurious and spacious. There was only two of us but four would have been equally as comfortable. Kitchen equipped incredibly, everything you might need at your finger tips. Very modern yet cosy and comfortable, warm and welcoming, very much fitting in it's lakes cottage setting.

I loved getting up to see the birds feeding in the garden, as well as a red squirrel! It was an incredibly wet week so the utility room was much appreciated.

Owners very responsive and friendly.

Absolutely perfect and excellent value for money.
