2 Bedroom Cottage in Braithwaite

The cottage has full gas central heating, double glazing and is lovingly maintained with wonderful views of the fells. It is charming and well equipped offering very comfortable accommodation for any time of year.
The entrance porch opens into a spacious, well decorated, lounge with a beamed ceiling, a living flame gas fire which has a remote control, and a leather suite, along with Smart TV, Bluetooth + CD Hi-Fi.
From the lounge you enter the fully fitted kitchen diner with built in appliances, including oven, 5 ringed ceramic touch control hob, microwave, washer dryer, fridge and freezer, dishwasher and Nespresso Magimix coffee machine with some complimentary pods. There is a dining area with table and four chairs with views out to the secluded garden.

This leads to the well kept enclosed garden which is ideal for families and those sunny days in the Lake District.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms, one bedroom with bespoke king size bed and one twin with two singles, both with built in wardrobes.
The large bathroom has both a bath and a shower cubicle, and a wash hand basin (the view of Barrow Fell from the bath after a day on the fells is definitely recommended). There is a separate WC next to the bathroom. One bath towel and one hand towel are provided per person.
It would be easy to park up and enjoy a jam-packed car-free holiday. Braithwaite amenities include three lovely pubs serving food and local ales, village shop and a tearoom.

Summary: Have been staying at Millside Cottage for the last ten or more years and now regard it home from home. Having parking is a bonus. Braithwaite is in an ideal position for visiting other parts of the lakes or for many walks.

Summary: Perfectly located in the village, just a few steps from the local shop and less than 5 minute walk to 2 excellent pubs serving excellent meals. The cottage benefits from parking to the front, and a secure small garden to the rear with outstanding views of Latrigg, Skiddaw range, Blencathra and Barrow and has a small table and chairs. Kitchen is very well equipped and spacious and the lounge is quite large but cosy and warm, the gas fire makes for an even cosier feel. Plenty of storage downstairs. Stairs are slightly steep but lead to a long landing and 2 bedrooms, bathroom and seperate toilet, all rooms upstairs have stunning views. The king size bed is so comfortable and the pillows are amazing and help you drift away to sleep. Again, cupboard space is excellent upstairs. Only slight downside is the water pressure in the shower cubicle, not great but manageable, you could also use the shower attachment over the bath if needed. The cottage has a tablet that welcomes you in and holds all of the appliance operating manuals plus other useful information, a really clever touch. Keswick Cottages were brilliant throughout, excellent communication, care and attention given, our first time using this company but will use again. Highly recommend the Royal Oak and Coledale Inn for dining and a walk to force crag mine is ideal for views and a good wide flat route. Did not want to leave this little gem of a cottage and would love to come back.

Summary: We enjoyed 6 nights in Millside Cottage during the recent snow and ice, and found it to be very warm, comfortable and clean. The beds are very comfortable as are the sofas, the view from the picture window in the large bathroom is spectacular, theres tons of hot water and a lovely big bath, plenty of storage space in the kitchen and bedrooms and decent cleaning materials to hand, the garden is well kept and secure for dogs, it’s easy to park directly in front of the house, and it’s right next to Braithwaite shop, 2 decent dog friendly pubs, 2 smart restaurants and 2 cafes (the shop has recently added on a dining area, although it’s not dog friendly). Loads of great walking from the door to suit all abilities. Keswick Cottages as a rental agency are also good communicators and offer a personable service and are very good value compared to the other national rental companies (Sykes, Hoseasons etc). We’d happily return. As an aside, the recycling/bin information for the cottage needs updating (collections aren’t on a Tuesday as stated and there’s no information on what can be recycled in which external bins).

Summary: Very well positioned and comfortable but there were quite a few faults and guest information was limited. There was a general feeling that the cottage needed updating with more care being taken to make guests feel welcome.

Summary: We have stayed at Millside on many occasions and always found it very clean and comfortable. It is in an ideal position in the village and for visiting other places in the Lakes.

Summary: Our fifth visit, and Millside Cottage is a bit of a home from home. Perfect location. Village shop is virtually next door, ideal for basic provisions, ice cream, cakes, bread baked daily on site. Coledale Inn just a few minutes away, excellent for refreshments or huge meals. Superb view from beer garden. Staff very friendly and attentive. Swinside Inn, a mile or so away equally recommended. So many walks from the door, no driving needed. Easy walk to Keswick that has Booths ("waitrose of the north") and Co-op as well as a massive variety of outdoor clothing shops, coffee shops and pubs. Useful as no welcome pack other than a small supply of cleaning products provided. Some maintenance needed internally and garden could do with a little tlc. Parking in front of house wouldn't work for other than one normal/large and very small second car. Access sometimes tricky when cars/vans parked opposite on the narrow road. Nothing that spoiled our holiday, and we will no doubt return in future. Thank you, lastly, to Keswick Cottages for efficiently and professionally managing the booking process.

Summary: It was like staying in an ordinary looking Lakeland cottage, with a futuristic array of machines which we appreciated. They weren’t too difficult to use. The village was a delight to walk around, and the shop was handy next door. Only a slight drip on the kitchen tap worried me, but in Cumbria this year there isn’t a water shortage! We met 2 friendly villagers in the street, one of whom showed me his beautiful garden. It wasn’t far to the Keswick Convention either, and we loved the walk in the Whinlatter Pass Forest.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at Millside Cottage in Braithwaite, a property we had seen in passing through the village for many years. The downstairs living spaces in the lounge and kitchen are excellent and spacious, as is the bathroom upstairs. The bedrooms are much smaller by comparison but still comfortable. The enclosed rear garden is a bonus for dog owners. The cottage is ideally located for the village ameneties, public transport and local walks. Just two negatives to report. First, the cottage is described as having two car parking spaces but the second car would need to be extremely short to fit between the front porch and the road. Our second car was a Ford Fiesta and it was way too long. Second, the rear porch off the kitchen has a polycarbonate roof which in itself is not a problem. However, whenever it rained water cascaded in large amounts on to the roof with a terrific noise, presumably as the gutters on the main house were blocked and overflowing.

Summary: Millside Cottage is situated in a lovely village and central to visiting many places also many walks. The cottage is clean and comfortable with everything you need for a good holiday.
