With glorious views of the Coniston Hills and local fell ranges, Hayrake is in an ideal location, on the fringes of the village with all amenities close to hand. Built of Lakeland stone, the cottage is very characterful, with cosy rooms, exposed beams and that all important open fire, Hayrake is also home to other features that you’d expect from such an old property, including the odd squeaky floorboard and uneven floor! Emphasis is more on creating a homely atmosphere than frills and fanciness, however Hayrake is very comfortable and offers everything for the holidaymaker. On three floors, the views get better the higher you go so you may have to toss a coin to decide who will have the top room.

Lake district
The cottage was excellent but the stress leading up to the check in was horrendous. I booked this on 21st or 23rd dec and had been asking for check in details of the property all the way up to the date of checkin. I only received the checkin details at 10am on the day of checkin. The cottage was some 6-7 hours drive and my plan was to leave my home very early in the morning to get there before the 4pm entry time. Due to this stress my family were rather upset and we ended up losing a day of the holiday as we were hoping to spend the day in the Lake District before checking in. It also meant I spent nearly the whole day on Boxing Day trying to contact the host and Vrbo with no success. I still do not know why the checkin details were provided so late and feel very disappointed by this. On reflection I feel we lost a day of our holiday and also suffered a day of stress beforehand. I feel some compensation should be offered
