Note: The garden is not enclosed Region: 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. Town: The community of Braithwaite is located between the two lovely northern lakes, Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite. The Coledale Beck runs through the village with whitewashed Lakeland cottages, two village shops, and two real ale Inns, each filled with charm and still maintaining much of its traditional attractiveness. Beautiful Newlands Valley is located between Braithwaite and Buttermere, and scenic Bassenthwaite Lake is must-see. There is truly something for everyone, from a leisurely country stroll to a strenuous walk-up Skiddaw. Take a cruise around the lake or visit Mirehouse, a stately home and grounds with an outdoor theatre on the lake's beaches. Dodd Wood, Derwentwater, the Lake District Wildlife Park, and Keswick with its abundance of attractions are all easily accessible.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.

Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Great holiday home on the edge of the forest

Fantastic holiday home right on the edge of Whinlatter Forest. This cottage is in the hamlet of Thornthwaite and is a 5min drive into Keswick. Bedrooms are lovely and all are situated at first floor. 1 x large bedroom with kingsize bed and huge en-suite walk-in shower, 1 x double bed with large en-suite walk-in shower, 1 x double bed which was snug. Main bathroom also situated at first floor, but there is also a further w/c shower room at ground floor level. Utility room off the back door, which I'd say is the main entrance rather than the original property door, which has a good washing machine and tumble dryer. Kitchen is very well stocked with pots and pans etc. The bonus with this property is the open lounge area with tv but also the second reception room with tv, so if the kids want their own space, there's more than enough rooms. We loved the afternoon sun on the patio, and there's plenty of car parking. We took our well behaved dog with us and had no trouble with the open aspect of the garden area, and the neighbours were great (didn't hear any barking from dogs, as suggested in another post). The cottage also has lots of books to read and games to play too, which is always nice to have that option. There is a stream that runs parallel with the property at a lower level which may get pretty noisy depending on the amount of rainfall, but the windows are pretty soundproof, and didn't disturb us during the night. There is also an open access (not gated, so young children should be supervised) with steps leading down to the stream. There was another gate which we were unsure whether it belonged to Ladstock Cottage or the adjoining property, so we never ventured beyond. There wasn't any information on the cottage for the guests only instruction manuals, which would have been handy and a nice personal touch plus the iron board didn't stand up too. I'd definitely recommend this cottage to others.
