Somewhere Reviews

Mark
The cottage was lovely, really well set up and perfect for relaxing after our mountain hikes. We loved the hot tub! It's within walking distance to Coniston, which was handy. Only thing was, we didn't get the stunning water views we'd hoped for and it felt a bit exposed.
Oliver
Overall, our stay was pretty good, though we did notice a few things. The wardrobe could definitely do with some drawers inside-more storage would've been handy. The shower pressure was a bit underwhelming, so no proper power shower in the mornings. That said, it didn't ruin our trip. We loved the hot tub, especially when the weather was clear. The booking fee of £58 felt a bit steep, especially with all the automated emails-it seemed a bit impersonal, honestly. Still, we had a nice time!
James
The place was super cosy, but it wasn't decorated for Christmas.
Sam
We've stayed here twice now, the last time being quite a few years ago. The place is super cosy and perfectly placed for exploring Coniston fells and Grizedale. The hot tub is a real treat after a long walk. Definitely recommend!
Alex
Honestly, this place was fantastic. The location couldn't be better, just a short walk to Lake Coniston where we spent ages paddle boarding. Climbing up to Old Man Coniston was a real highlight, the views were absolutely stunning. We also enjoyed a fun pub crawl around the charming village. The hot tub was perfect for unwinding after a day outand relaxing by the log burner with a glass of red was just ace. We'd definitely return and recommend it to anyone!
Emma
This is a truly glorious property in an excellent location. We had everything we needed for a very comfortable, well-equipped stay. The hot tub and private garden were much appreciated because of the lovely weather we enjoyed. There are walks right from the door and the town centre is just an easy 1.5 miles walk away. There are good pubs, fine food at Swallows & Amazons restaurant, which is a 5-minute walk away on the footpath opposite the entrance, plus tea shops, art galleriesand museums all easily accessible by car or the 505 bus. A marvellous way to spend a week!
Emily
From 3rd to 10th June, we had a fantastic week at Somewhere! We enjoyed the hot tub every day after some brilliant hikes. The weather was really good and dry. We even squeezed in a couple of swims in our wetsuits in Coniston Water, which is super close by, plus it's easy to walk into town. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking on our 5-mile walk from the cottage up to Grizedale Forest and back down to Brantwood House, with two lovely tea rooms along the way! We'd definitely stay again, it's so peaceful. Just a heads up, bring your own salt, pepper, oils, tea, coffee, sugarand all that, because there's nothing provided. Good pub grub in the town too!
