Broughton Mills Cottage | Potter's Wheel - sleeps 4, private lake access, dog friendly and parking

2 Bedroom Cottage in Broughton Mills, Coniston

Potter's Wheel, located in the small hamlet of Water Yeat, is enviably positioned just seconds from the quiet South Western shores of Coniston Water. This quintessential home away from home is the epitome of a traditional Lakeland cottage and the out-pouring of love from the property owners doesn’t go unnoticed, making this the perfect base to explore some of The Lake District’s unspoilt gems.
The period lead windows, rock faced lounge and original beamed ceilings are paired with modern day amenities and tasteful accessories, striking the perfect balance between the old and the new.
An up-to-the-minute dining kitchen, two comfortable bedrooms and one family house bathroom make up the basis of this ‘olde worlde’ cottage, while the undeniably unique lounge sits at the front of the house. With its feature log burning stove, original spiral staircase and comfortable seating for the whole family, this is without a doubt the beating heart of this charming home.
Not forgetting the reason everyone falls in love with this cottage: the lake access! Step out from the front door and within seconds you’ll have journeyed through the private woodland and be embracing the purity of Lakeland waters. Be it open water swimming, paddleboarding, canoeing – or even a spot of fishing from the private beach area – this is an adventurer’s playground. And dare we say it, possibly even a 'honeymooners haven'...

Summary: Loved how close to the lake it was. It’s one of the cleanest we have stayed in, attention to detail and everything we needed was provided. Communication before our stay was excellent, check in was easy, Ross kindly called to say we could check in early. Great location for someone who wants a quiet relaxing time away and easy access to the lake .We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Potter’s Wheel and will definitely return . .

Summary: Pros Cottage is located in a lovely and peaceful location surrounded by nature, but also not too far from nearby Coniston to feel isolated. So many local walks and things to do and see. The Cottage is very cosy, especially at night, with the fire crackling away. Has everything you need for a weeks stay to make your own meals Private access to the lake is a great bonus for anybody into swimming / water sports Beds were comfy Instructions for appliances and general cottage guide was well thought out Great selection of games, books, DVDs and maps to browse through Cons - We found the shower to be very weak - Didn't realise dog weren't allowed in the bedrooms until we arrived so we did not use the upstairs room at all, although they were comfy twin beds downstairs - No visitors book to sign and get ideas from Overall we really enjoyed our stay and found the cottage to be very accommodating and is obviously well looked after and cherished by the owners. Thank you :)

Summary: Arrived late afternoon to a welcoming and warm, clean cottage. Stayed here 15 years ago and always said we would return. Setting is wonderful with easy access to the lake (has a shingle shoreline). Great for sitting by a campfire and watching the stars on a clear night and listening to the owls, but wrap up warm if you're stay is in the winter! Tucked away and surrounded by trees, this place is a comfort blanket for the soul. Take some bird food and a feeder and you'll be entertained by the local wildlife directly outside the kitchen window whilst having breakfast. Squirrels, Nuthatches, Woodpeckers, Robins, various other birds and, if you're lucky, even a cheeky stoat might make an appearance! The cottage has everything you need for your stay. Very well equipped kitchen - just add food. Cosy lounge, especially when the log burner is pressed into service (logs/kindling available locally down in Coniston village). Comfortable bed too, with plenty of spare blankets if required. If you fancy eating out then plenty of good places locally and a little further afield. Ideally located for visiting The Langdales, Ambleside and Windermere. Customer service at Tarn and Fell Escapes excellent. Prompt and helpful responses to our queries. If you're looking for a cosy, well equipped little bolthole, then this is the place. We are already planning our third stay. Would just advise caution if using the outside steps to the upper floor - very slippery. 'Tis the lake district after all. All in all, a great little place to 'get away from it all'.

Summary: We really enjoyed staying at Potters Wheel. The cottage is fantastic value for money, given the space and the access to Coniston Water. We love swimming and Paddlebaording and loved the beach access. The cottage has free parking and is a short drive away from local fells and peaks. The cottage was very cosy and was well maintained. The kitchen is modern, well equipped and clean. The bathroom was very clean. Our only minor suggestion would be keep on top of dusting, particularly in the living space. We will definitely be back!

Summary: This is the second time we have stayed and we love it here. We have 2 young boys and they love the woods at the front and the field and lake side access!! It has everything you need for a quiet, relaxing time. Can't wait to come back again xx

Summary: A beautifully designed extension to this old cottage makes for a warm, cosy and comfortable place to relax and unwind, or use as a base from which to explore and be more adventurous. Superbly equipped kitchen makes meal prep easy. The beds and sofas are very comfortable. Two main criteria for me were a log fire and a bathtub. It all worked so well. Tucked away in woodland but close enough to the road, I loved it. Would definitely re-book.

Summary: This was a lovely property, very comfortable. The bonus for us was the accessible lake which meant we could swim even when it was raining!!
