An attractive two-storey property, situated in the lovely village of Portinscale, this is the ideal location for an active holiday for families, couples or a group of friends. It’s just a short drive from the attractions of the Lake District National Park. Derwentwater Marina is less than 500 metres away, where you can hire a variety of boats or canoes.

This is a beautiful cottage, cosy and comfortable with light and airy rooms. On the ground floor, the lounge area has two comfortable sofas and is a perfect space to unwind after a busy day out, with a Smart TV and a flame-effect electric fire. The kitchen and dining area is stylish and equipped with all you need to eat and share meals together. Upstairs, you will find a king-size bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, and a twin room with an en-suite shower room. Both bedrooms have a TV.

Outside, there is access to a small, raised paved platform with garden furniture for two – a pretty spot in fine weather.

We've had a great stay, the cottage is a fantastic find and well worth its gold award. I loved it all and your cleaners deserve high praise. Too often cottages advertised as luxury lack that sparkle and attention to detail, not yours, you can be so proud.

A beautifully maintained and equipped cottage with the owners clearly having paid a lot of attention to detail. In perfect decorative order, the cottage is clean and bright and everything is well thought out and works as it should. Possibly the best holiday cottage we've ever rented, and I'm certain we will be back before long.

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your lovely cottage. My husband has commented in your guest book and I echo the same, that all rentals should aspire to reach the quality and standards of Corner Cottage. The weather was also perfect.

Corner Cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed. I liked the local artwork. The cottage is in an ideal location with plenty of walks from the doorstep, a cafe over the road and marinas nearby where there is kayak, canoe and paddleboard hire. The Keswick shops are either a walk or a short drive away. We enjoyed sitting out on the paRead moretio and hope to return in the future. Hide

Fantastic cottage, a real home from home. Location was top notch and no issues what so ever, one of the best places we've stayed! Probably the best in The Lakes. Our dog loved the dog treats and all the great walks and paddles. The worst bit is going home!

Property was very clean and well furnished to a high standard. Location very good with Keswick only a gentle 15 minute walk away. Although unable to park our vehicle outside the property, this did not cause any real issues as alternative available a short distance away. This however may be a small problem in the height of the holiday season.

I phoned to ask if there was a hig chair and cot at the property and was told no. We had to take our own only to find out that there was both. This was annoying as with a young baby the car was full without these unnecessary extras. Also it proved quite difficult to book this property I had to make 3 phone calls to secure the booking.

It's wonderful, we couldn't ask for more. We are regular visitors in Keswick (usually a caravan), so are familiar with the area. Lovely walks and so nice to come back to this cosy cottage. Thank you for making this a special place, we will be back.

The only reason I marked down slightly was because bath plug didnt work ( seal missing ) and we had to buy one. Would have been a shame not to utilise the lovely bath after a day of walking. Also outside furniture rickety and really not comfy Im afraid. Other than that perfect cottage in perfect location.
