Location Details
The village of Pooley Bridge is situated on the edge of Lake Ullswater in the Lake District National Park. Pooley Bridge offers many traditional inns, tea rooms, a Post Office and the Ullswater Steamers depart from the village, from where a tranquil cruise down the lake to the villages of Glenridding and Howtown can be enjoyed. There are many walks nearby and within driving distance are the towns of Penrith and Keswick.
Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.
Reviews
Perfectly located for walkers and hikers. Several pubs and restaurants all a short walk away. Cottage is set back from the road overlooking a tranquil field filled with grazing sheep. A must do is the boat ride up to Glenridding with a stop in for lunch at the Inn on the Lake. Cottage is well stocked. Only negatives were no laundry facility and lack of a shower. Cottage could use a bit of updating, and no wifi is available unless you go across the road to the pub. Only reason we would not return is that the Lake District was not really to our liking, but others may find it perfect.
The cottage was just like being at home. It was very cosy and warm with fantastic views, and in a lovely village. We were able to do walks without having to drive. A perfect holiday for us.
Have just come back from a wonderful week here with my 20 year old son, walking the fells. Mews Cottage was cosy and warm, just perfect for returning at dusk, drying out, eating and relaxing. Brilliant location: Post Office that's also a food shop, newsagent etc only a few yards away, 3 pubs, and a tea shop, the lake steamer boat right there. Easy to get to by Virgin Trains to Penrith (very cheap in advance) and Stagecoach bus to the door, even on Sundays in winter. Loads of walks on your doorstep and even a cultural centre (Rheged) nearby that's great for shopping and coffee, as well as films, exhibitions and kids play. At the end of our stay our wonderful hosts even gave us a lift to the station as they feared that the weather might have stopped the buses.
Everything was there and in immaculate order. We liked the situation. The owners were very friendly and helpful.
Liked the comfortable accommodation and the area, which was central to other locations in the area.
Great base in a really nice village right next to Ullswater. The beds were really comfy and the kitchen had everything I needed to cook for a family of 3.
Mews Cottage is a lovely property. The owner is a really lovely host, my mum and I really enjoyed our stay.
An excellent location close to the village centre. Mews Cottage was very comfortable with good quality furniture and bedding etc.
Very friendly and helpful owners. Beautiful landscape and nice village with all the necessary shops etc. in walking distance.
Very comfortable and well positioned to get out and about. Very comfy double bed! Thanks.
There was a nice friendly welcome from the owner and the property had a nice feel as we went in. We really enjoyed our holiday and we hope to return in the future.
Friendly welcome from owners, excellent facilities, convenient location and access to Ullswater.
The location of Mews Cottage was brilliant; 2 minutes to the side of the lake and within easy reach of other lakeside towns. Cottage was really cosy with plenty of hot water. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable.
