Summary

The accommodation is well-located for walks and has a cozy atmosphere, with good facilities. However, there are concerns about kitchenware quality, garden condition, and missing daily essentials. Overall, it is clean, well-prepared, and suitable for small families, with potential for a return visit.

The property

Located nearby the banks of the River Brathay in the Langdale valley is River Bank. A traditional Lakeland cottage overlooking the ancient river bridge, this is a lovely base for families or two couple to enjoy.

Enter through practical boot room and through to the kitchen with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The living room is centered around the woodburning stove to enjoy on the cooler evenings, and dining area is the perfect spot for a social evening catching up around exploring the area over a glass of wine. Upstairs there is a spacious king-size double bedroom with views over the river, a twin bedroom and the family bathroom boasting bath and separate shower. Venture outside to the private rear garden furnished for dining al fresco with BBQ.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the more popular villages, Skelwith Bridge is perfectly situated for exploring the nearby Langdale Pikes and Blea Tarn as well as a short drive from the vibrant village of Ambleside. Skelwith Bridge itself has plenty to offer, take a stroll down to Skelwith Force and enjoy a delicious brunch at Chesters by the River, a popular vegetarian café with gift shop and take away bakery.

This is an ideal spot for a relaxing break in the Lakes with walks from the door and just a short drive from Ambleside and the central Lake District.
