Location Details
A historic Lakeland town with a fine reputation for shopping, Kendal is known as the Southern Gateway to the Lakes. Its old cobbled lanes and byways branch off the attractive main street, and the stone ruins of 12th Century Kendal Castle sit perched on a hill with views over the town. With other attractions such as Kendal Museum, Lake Windermere and the wider National Park, this is a superb base for a relaxing break.
Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.
Reviews
A lovely home away from home. The whole accommodation was even better than we expected. It is a great place to stay if you have children, we loved the large enclosed garden. We'd definitely stay here again.
This cottage is beautiful in a great location with stunning scenery. It was spotless on arrival and was equipped with everything you could possibly need. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. Its location is perfect for exploring both the Lakes and the Yorkshire Dales. We can't fault it!
The cottage was beautifully decorated to a very high standard. It was great it rained so much as we had an excuse to stay in rather than go out! Cannot praise the cottage enough.
Perfect cottage and absolutely lovely hosts. We would highly recommend.
An absolutely fabulous place. The pictures do not do it justice.
This is a fantastic cottage, in a truly beautiful location, surrounded by hills and dales. The owners are very good hosts, a great deal of thought had gone into the outlay of the cottage. The facilities were fantastic; including electronic blind and window openings for the bedrooms, yet still retaining a comfy cottage feel. Highly recommend.

The cottage was of a good standard and ideally placed for easy access to purchase anything needed. The garden was ideal for our grandson.
We have just returned from a fantastic week at Little Crake Howe. The cottage is a perfect home away from home. Every detail has been carefully planned and the owners have made sure that you will want for nothing; from smart TVs to a kitchen which is incredibly stocked with beautiful crockery. The furnishings and décor are to a high standard and it was immaculately cleaned. It was a delight to return here every evening after exploring the local areas. We would recommend this cottage and hope to return in the future.
It is the best holiday cottage we have stayed in. The location is perfect for exploring the Lake District. We cannot praise the cottage and owners highly enough.
The cottage was pristine with all mod cons and no expense spared on furnishings. A washing machine was also provided in the utility room which was an added bonus. I cannot fault the property and will definitely recommend it to others and look forward to our next visit.
We had a fantastic family holiday at Little Crake Howe. The cottage is very well equipped and of a very high standard, a home from home.
