Rock Lynn - a bungalow that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

The lounge is lovely and bright has an open fire in a pine surround, two leather settees, colour TV, DVD, video and CD player. There are fabulous views towards the fells from the main bay window and side window. This is a perfect room in which to relax and just look out towards the views.

The dining kitchen is fully fitted and very well equipped with gas hob, electric oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher microwave, etc, dining table and four chairs and patio doors which lead to the patio area. Off the kitchen there is a utility area with a washing machine and tumble dryer.

There are two very comfortable bedrooms, one double room with a super king size bed, pine furniture, and coordinating fabrics. The front bedroom has an en-suite shower room with shower, WC and wash hand basin. The second bedroom is again well finished and has two single beds and an en-suite bathroom with bath, WC and wash hand basin. Both bedrooms have zip-linked beds which means that either room can be made up as a double or a twin room. If you require a change in configuration of beds. (eg two doubles or two twin rooms) a charge of £15.00 will be made. Towels provided (one bath & one hand towel per person).

Hot tub hire available at this property - please enquire with host.

This is a lovely, bright bungalow with plenty of space, private parking to the front for up to four cars, a private patio to the side with picnic bench and the most exceptional views towards numerous fells. Rock Lynn is an ideal property where you can escape and relax but within striding distance of the pubs and shop and superb walking from the doorstep. To the back of the bungalow there is a steep grassed area where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the fells.

A cottage with a view and a hot tub!

Very comfortable and well appointed bungalow with fantastic views. Lovely terrace if the weather's nice enough to sit out. And the hot tub is great, whatever the weather! We love Braithwaite so the property was ideally located for access to the local pubs and village shop.

A lovely winter break at Rock Lynn

We thoroughly enjoyed our four night stay at Rock Lynn, a very well presented, comfy and cosy property in a great location with lovely views all around. Comfortable bed and good modern bathrooms and kitchen, well equipped with everything we needed. The outdoor space was also very good and would be great in the warmer weather.

Peaceful retreat

Great bungalow with fabulous views. Clean, comfortable and in good location. Only one small negative point the sofas could do with being replaced as getting a little tired. Overall excellent accommodation and would like to return in the future.

Lovely relaxing break

Lovely cosy cottage. Clean, well equipped and fantastic views! Great location for walks and local pubs. The drive up to the cottage is definitely steep (hence the great views!) so not easy for our elderly dog so we used the car more than anticipated. Oh and the welcoming bottle of Prosecco was much appreciated!

Fantastic place to stay , views were amazing even on the wet days . Cottage is well equipped and great for a dog , only complaint is the bedroom curtains need to take an eye mask as they let lots of light in.

Fabulous place.

We can not fault this property for its comfort, cleanliness and location. It has everything you could possibly need or want for a fabulous break away. The bed was so comfortable the main shower was so powerful, just wonderful, the kitchen was well equipped, has everything you possibly need, brilliant. Having the utility room to come into with our dog and muddy boots after a long day out walking was a bonus.The view's are wonderful, the location just a few minutes walk into the lovely village where therei s a fabulous little shop and great pubs etc. The only disappointment for us was the hot tub, it says it takes 1 and a half to 2 hours to get to temperature but although we kept the fire going really well with the abundance of logs etc provided it actually took 2 hours 40 minutes to get to 38° and when finally getting in it, it was still luke warm at the bottom, very disappointed hence getting out and not bothering to use it again throughout the holiday. However as everything else got 10 out of 10 we would definitely return.

Relaxing and peaceful holiday in a beautiful location

We had a wonderful and peaceful stay in Rock Lynn. We had everything we needed in a lovely location to many of the Lakes. The bungalow was lovely and quiet and ideal for travelling to many beautiful areas. The only down side was the garden was steeper then expected for my dogs and elderly parents but this is the only negative. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Thank you.

Rock Lynn was as advertised a beautiful view from the house, the garden behind the house is challenging and could do with steps put into the grass slope to make it easier to get up to the garden. Apart from that small issue everything else was fantastic.

Great family holiday in August!

We have a wonderful stay at Rock Lynn last week - the property is immaculate and in a great location in a lovely village. There are two great pubs within easy walking distance, a super coffee shop and a well-stocked village shop. The property is lovely inside and out - comfy beds, great kitchen with all appliances and lovely bath/showers - plus fabulous views and an enclosed garden (albeit this is steep!) for the dog. There's also a short walk accessible from the back garden up the steep hill behind too, which had lovely views across the valley. Would definitely recommend this property and we will certainly return!

Great dog friendly cottage

We have stayed here lots of times over the years and as regular visitors to the Lakes, it's our favourite dog friendly place. It's spacious, full of amenities Inc a great boot room/place to dry the dog and in a perfect location for us! Lovely recently refurbished kitchen and bathrooms too. We've stayed in summer and winter - been lucky enough with good weather to use outside patio and in the winter it is lovely and cosy. Only thing I would mention is that it doesn't have a Smart TV which is unusual these days (hence the loss of one point)Otherwise fantastic place!

Great half term stay

Booked this property very late and price had been reduced to within our budget. Lovely clean, spacious bungalow with superb views. Braithwate is just a short hop to Keswick, great if you use the bus. It's in a quiet location but close to the two pubs and little shop/cafe. Could had done with a TV in the kitchen and a pity the room in the loft was not used. But the place was spotless and had really good bathrooms. We normally try and stay more in the middle of the Lakes but enjoyed our time here and would definitely think about returning.

Comfort

We have stayed in Rock Lynn for many years and it is always a joy to return. Very spacious accommodation with a large double bedroom with ensuite shower, and large twin with access to the main bathroom with shower over bath. The lounge is spacious with 2 large settees and a super smart TV for those quiet nights, with stunning views over the Fells and the Vale of Keswick. Plenty of area for after wet walks, a covered area in the garden for wet dripping clothes, plus a large utility room that also houses the washing machine, dryer and freezer. The kitchen is a good size, with ample space for food preps, with table and chairs offering more stunning views over the Coledale Fells. Ample parking for 2 cars. This is the perfect Lakeland location for a relaxing holiday.

Nice house

We had a lovely stay in Rock Lynn. The house was very comfortable had good amenities. It was also in a lovely location with amazing views. We were a bit disappointed with the state of the outside area by the kitchen/utility room. It had a lot of weeds and there were many dead leaves in the lean-to and the barbecue looked quite dirty. The grass was cut weekly which was great but a bit more attention to the patio/stoned area would have been appreciated. It was also a bit disappointing that we had to chase for the linen and towel change - we were expecting it to be done on the middle Saturday but we’re only told when chasing that it would be done on the Sunday. The lack of communication was disappointing.

Wonderful Location

Rock Lynn is a lovely house in a quiet location with wonderful views and lots of walks locally. A short walk up the hill at the rear of the house is worth it for the view.
