Perfect holiday accomodation

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Apr 3, 2013
  • Stayed: Mar 2013
Perfect holiday accommodation in the Lake District! Osprey House looks small from the outside but inside provides excellent comfortable, spacious accommodation for 6. It is exceptionally warm, well equipped and tastefully furnished. It is very well situated for visiting Ullswater and Coniston and has a stunning view of Windermere. My worries about being situated on the road to the ferry were totally unfounded as it is tucked away so there is no noise of traffic from the ferry road. It just makes it very convenient to hop on the ferry!
We had a wonderful few days walking and cycling.
Thoroughly recommended!

Owner's Response: Thank you for your kind review, we are very happy that you had an enjoyable time.
