Gut: Sauberkeit, Check-in, Kommunikation, Lage und Genauigkeit des Onlineauftritts
This cabin is clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. We had everything we needed for our stay. The location is convenient and easily accessible with a motorcycle. The backyard mountain view is gorgeous! We even had the pleasure of meeting the owners who live catty-corner from the backyard :) They encouraged us to let them know if we had any issues during our stay (everything was perfect).

A lovely house in an area with beautiful scenery and lots to do. We had a great stay despite the poor weather. We have been coming away in January, as a group of 8, for many years and this is the best house we have stayed in!

Great holiday home
We had a fantastic week at Orrest Head to welcome in the New Year. The house has a really comfortable and welcoming ambiance. The in house pub was a great hit with all of us. Lovely power showers too. Would love to return in the summer at some point.

Fantastic Property
A beautiful property with fantastic gardens. It was a delight to spend a week there, sat in the garden amongst the mature trees watching the wildlife go by. Out of the town but with regular, easy bus commutes from the train station a short walk away.
I would recommend it to any large party.

Amazing place!
From start to finish this was the perfect stay! The owners were more than happy to help with queries before our stay, replying to emails quickly. The house had absolutely everything- including champagne glasses to make our stay super comfortable. So much space and lovely rooms, brilliant en suites and a fabulous outdoor space meant we could use it all to make our hen party weekend perfect. We had 12 guests and there was plenty of room. Would highly recommend - we are now thinking of an excuse to return!

Perfect stay
This house was absolutely perfect for our group celebrating a hen party.
There was 12 of us in the main house and there was ample room for us all. The beds were extremely comfortable. The location was perfect for walking into Windermere and a short taxi from Bowness. The house was clean and had all facilities that were needed for our weekend.
The communication from the hosts was brilliant prior to and throughout our stay.
I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a fabulous weekend!

Perfect for our family celebration
We combined our booking at Orrest Head House with another at one of the Terrace houses as our group for a family celebration was too large for the house. The accommodation was ideal for our group. The house has a good range of en-suite bedrooms and excellent spaces for gathering together. We mentioned a few items that were in need of repair and/or maintenance to the owners. Overall the house was just perfect for our needs and provided the perfect venue for what was a truly memorable family occasion.

A house with a rustic charm yet with a well equipped modern facilities.
Lovely house which is well sited close to Windermere. A blend of modern and rustic facilities. Very well equipped kitchen and superb bedrooms with en suite facilities. The dining room and kitchen chairs were a little uncomfortable and cushions would have been appreciated. A large front garden well back from the busy Windermere/Kendal road. I was a little disappointed with the outdoor furniture, not very comfortable but since the weather was poor we had limited use of it.

Beautiful break for a large family
Wow.. where to begin? The house is absolutely stunning and huge.. the pictures don’t convey quite how big it is. We had a fabulous stay for a family big birthday, age ranges from 1- 70, and there was something for everyone! The bar is a fantastic touch and made it really special. The decor is beautiful, beds are comfy and the owners really helpful with recommendations beforehand. Location is fabulous to windemere centre (4-5 min walk) and we actually walked to bowness from the house too and wasn’t bad at all! Thank you for a memorable weekend x

Great House for Large Groups
We had both properties for a 40th birthday celebration from work. They obviously attract and cater to large groups such as Hen Dos and birthdays and so I was worried the house might reflect this and be worn or shabby but it was beautiful and really clean. The location was great, near enough to walk to pubs and shops but far away enough that I didn't have to shout at my young colleagues to turn the music down. We found the 2 house set up great as 5 of us older ones or ones who need a break from large groups could go back to chill out or sleep. The large house was great for the main events with a pub room and a large kitchen for kitchen disco. All our interactions with the owners made us feel welcome. Would love to go back.
