Old Brewery Barn, Ullswater, Lake District

It was just beautiful the owners had thought of everything for a perfect stay in a quiet village. Just stunning

Great central location with one bar/restaurant within easy walking distance. The hot tub was a great addition and meant the holiday ended up being very social as it was a great place to spend time where you aren’t able to be on your phone. There are a lot of rules for the hot tub which is a big green flag as someone who’s family owns a hot tub, it meant you knew it’s kept clean and they care about the maintenance of it. The view of the garden was amazing, the owners are clearly very into gardening. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen/living room was roomy and easy to socialise and eat together. The bathrooms were roomy and the showers were great.

The only tiny thing we missed was more areas to hang wet swimmers and towels as we were in and out of the hot tub a fair bit but that’s a tiny tiny thing! We also may have missed an area to hang things as we didn’t even discover the towels until the last full day so it’s possible we just didn’t see it.

Easy to access

This property has clearly been done to a high standard, we didn’t want for anything (maybe apart from ketchup in the condiments cupboard!) more than enough towels per person, decent showers, comfy beds, really BIG beds, more than enough parking. It was a lovely property.

Didn’t like that I had to empty the bins myself and strip the beds. Didn’t like the fly zapper in the kitchen (which we did turn off) but then there was a lot of flies in because of summer and the patio doors. It would be better if the hot tub was more private, it literally is overlooked by the neighbours windows. It was quite expensive for 3 days and a 10am check out is ok, but 11am would be better

Location, property very high standard, every possible need catered for. Hosts friendly, helpful and quick to respond. Wonderful place to stay and a hot tub!

Fantastic stay. Very comfortable, clean and the hosts were absolutely lovely. Road was a little loud with lots of tractors going by but aside from that, couldn’t fault it.

The house is absolutely beautiful, looks newly renovated, very modern. Garden is lovely. Kitchen has all the amenities. Lots of nice walks within a short drive. Had a fab Sunday lunch at the pub across the road.
