Brilliant holiday home in a beautiful location, enjoyed waking up to the ducks and going out on the lake, in between spending time at the pool.

I booked Fishermans Cottage for a weekend away with my sisters, family friend and my 6 month old. It was such a BEAUTIFUL location, so easy to get to and the access info was great. The cottage sits on the lake so we had the most lovely peaceful time, the weather was also great so we enjoyed sitting on the deck, watching the lovely wildlife and enjoying the sunsets.
Due to the lakeside location, there were quite a lot of midges and flies that did get into the house - but this is no reflection of the cottage hygiene (which was great!) just something we noticed, so quickly made sure the back doors were kept shut!

The cottage itself was great, really well equipped, comfy and cosy with lovely clean sheets and towels.
It was really useful to have a travel cot bed and highchair there for us to use and saved having to take them with us!

We had the most lovely weekend - the Lower Mill Estate is wonderful to explore, and the surrounding area is beautiful. We enjoyed a lovely walk to The Bakers Arms for a pub lunch which was delicious and lovely area to walk around. FIsherman's Cottage is ideal for two families as there is a bunk bed room for the kids, but it worked well for us a 4 adults and a baby too!

Thank you for a fab weekend - we'll definitely be back!

We had a nice time at fisherman’s cottage , it was clean and tidy on arrival and the welcome Guide was very thorough and helpful.
My only criticism would be the beds- we did not find the mattresses comfortable or the pillows and feel investment in some good quality ones would make all the difference.
We loved having the log burner on the chilly nights.
We would definitely come back in the summer - maybe a hot tub on the decking would be a welcome
Addition!

Stayed for 2 nts with family, great location , lovely views .
The property was a good size and layout for us , two double rooms and a bunk room.
It could do with a deep clean, lots of cobwebs in high corners ( hard to reach places ) but ok on the whole.
Good amenities, outdoor pool /sauna and an activity centre for bike rentals etc.
Lovely on-site restaurant , we visited both nights.


I didn't think the area as a whole was very user friendly , you have to keep your eyes on any children , don't know why pedestrian/cycle paths weren't put in, seems it caters more for cars.

We stayed here for 3 nights (family of 5) and had a fantastic time. Everything you need is on-site and there is plenty for the children to see and do.

You can't get a better location than this! But moreso, Fisherman's Cottage was extremely well equipped, comfortable and clean. We didn't realise we also had access to a heated outdoor pool, tennis courts and play areas. We will be back.
