Lovely two bedroom holiday home with lake view
Beautiful caravan in an even beautiful surroundings. We had such a lovely stay. The caravan was spotless and so cosy and warm. Had everything we needed and lots of helpful instructions for amenities. We will definitely book again. Stephens caravan is definitely worth a visit

Honeysuckle Cottage On The Beach
What a great stay. The house was beautiful and right in the beach and by the park. As a family of 5 and a dog Chad made sure we looked after and we felt very welcome. Everything was clean and tidy and made to feel like our own. We all loved it

Langway
Lovingly restored property with oodles of internal space for 6 (2 adults, 2 teens and 2 children). The high ceilings, exposed beams and the veluxe windows with views of the sky were particular highlights. Langway has all the amenities inside you could need and more. Lovely to have an air bnb place that has the key bits in the kitchen that make life a bit easier when you're only a way a short period and haven't bought absolutely everything with you - cling/foil/condiments/ squash. The welcome basket and bottle of wine was a lovely touch. Beds and bedding were really comfy. Sofas not super comfy, but we didn't spend long say on them as we were mainly out exploring. Not far to Kendal and to Windemere by car. Langway has limited outside space, but we knew that on booking and the little courtyard with table and chairs was enough for us. It does face on to the lane, but the lane is exceedingly quiet with only a handful of cars ever passing. Overall, would definitely recommend!

Green View, close to coniston lake. Pet friendly
This is a lovely place to stay in a quiet, peaceful location. Great view from the windows with lots of greenery. Coniston is nearby and a lovely spot for exploring. Comfy beds, clean bathroom and good shower- all the essentials! Hosts were also accommodating when we had a last minute change of plans due to flight times.

Corner Cottage, Great Broughton, Cumbria
The cottage is a wonderful place to stay when exploring the Western Lake District and coastline. It’s tucked away in a quiet corner and has a lovely enclosed garden perfect for your furry companion . The cottage itself is surprisingly spacious, comfortable and decorated cosily. Sue was the perfect host and checked in to make sure our elderly parents had the best stay. We shall return again soon !!

Lovely 3 bed caravan. Sea view.
Absolutely spotless, so clean and tidy. Lots of extra bedding, blankets and sheets. The caravan smelt so lovely and was very well equipt with lots of plates, glasses, cutlery and everything we needed!! There were 2 adults and 6 children and we had lots of space! Diane was a great host and we cant wait to stay again!

Beauview, stunning holiday home (Wi-Fi & Smart TV)
We really enjoyed our short stay. Caravan was pristine and very comfortable. Everything was there that you might need. The holiday park is set in a beautiful location, which is very quiet and feels welcoming. We’d certainly like to revisit at some point in the future.

GLD Caravan Rentals @ Cala Gran
Emily was very friendly and responded to us very quickly. She left some easter eggs for the kids and flowers and a card for my wife as I had mentioned it was her birthday which was very kind. the caravan is nice and clean, and functional and it's not buried into the back of the site, you can easily walk to the main facilities. we would happily stay again.
Your guide to Eskdale
All About Eskdale
Located in Cumbria in the western Lake District, the remote valley of Eskdale is home to several small hamlets and villages — including Eskdale Green — but devoid of many roads or businesses. Green rolling hills and steep mountains surround the valley, creating a sense of seclusion. Winding rivers, thick woodlands, and small waterfalls provide a lush natural habitat for the red squirrels, buzzards, ospreys, golden eagles, and red deer you can frequently spot throughout the valley. Several footpaths bend alongside the River Esk, whose clear water allows you to see the stone riverbed, while the sound of the cascading waterfalls fills the air that would otherwise be nearly silent. The valley is home to several natural wonders, including Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain; Hardknott Pass, England’s steepest road; and Great Moss, the flat marshland surrounding parts of the River Esk.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Eskdale
While winters in Eskdale boast beautiful snow-capped mountains and hillsides, the weather during this time is cold and wet. Spring tends to see the least rainfall, but temperatures are still chilly, so you’ll want to bring a coat and jacket. Summer visitors experience pleasant temperatures with minimal rain, making it an excellent time to look for cottages in Eskdale.
The majority of local events happen in the summer months. The Boot Beer Festival, held in June, is one of the largest beer festivals in Cumbria, with a vast assortment of ales, ciders, wine, soft drinks, and food. Also in June, EskFest is a small but mighty music and arts festival, with street food, drinks, crafts, kids’ activities, a silent disco, and live performances on four stages. As autumn arrives, you can expect a drop in temperatures and an increase in rainfall.
Top things to do in Eskdale
Stanley Ghyll Force
Stanley Ghyll Force is an 18-metre waterfall in lower Eskdale near the Dalegarth station. Surrounded by moss-covered rocks and green vegetation, it is considered one of the most majestic waterfalls in the area. A network of trails from the station or a small car park north of the falls will lead you along the River Esk, through the shade of mature trees, and over a series of narrow footbridges. The falls are even more spectacular on rainy days, but be sure to wear your waterproof shoes and gear.
Eskdale Mill
Located along Whillan Beck in the small village of Boot, Eskdale Mill is the last water-powered corn mill in the Lake District. The historic 18th-century building, restored waterwheels, milling machinery, and interactive exhibits focus on the area’s rich history. A shaded picnic area and garden provide a peaceful outdoor space to enjoy the surrounding greenery and the sound of the rushing water from Whillan Beck.
Ravenglass
The small coastal village of Ravenglass is just a 10-kilometre train ride away on the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway. What was a key Roman naval base for 300 years now features historic sites like a medieval castle and the ruins of the Roman Bath House, once part of the fort here. The village is also home to the Ravenglass Railway Museum, which focuses on the history of the local railways from 1875.
