High Wreah Bolt Hole

Small but perfectly formed, this cottage had everything we needed for few days away.

It was immaculate, cosy and warm, making it a really comfortable place to stay.The location is great for exploring the surrounding area, with local amenities just a short drive away.There are also some lovely dog walks right from the front door, which was a big bonus for us. A special mention to the owner, Carol, and her family, who were so very warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived-it was a pleasure to chat with them. The fresh duck eggs were absolutely on point too, thank you! We really enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

Perfect little bolthole.

We had an amazing time in cold & blustery January here.

The bolt hole was perfect for staying warm & cosy, with easy self-catering and shops very nearby. We used it as our staging post to drive ~30 miles into different parts of the Lakes each day.

Great little accommodation and would definitely recommend to anybody and I will also be returning myself.

Unfortunately the weather wasn't very good for walking and exploring but it was still a lovely break thanks to carol and her family being very helpful.

This was a perfect stay that completely met my expectations.

The cosy accommodation was a perfect place to settle in for an evening or to come back to after a walk in the stunning scenery. Carole has made sure that everything you need is there and the treats are especially welcome. I would definitely come back.

From the moment we arrived we felt completely at home.

The heating was already on, which made stepping into the lodge feel like a warm hug after a long journey. It’s beautifully cost and safe with a peaceful atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. The surrounding area is absolutely stunning. Carol the wonder was incredibly lovely and welcoming adding a personal touch that made our stay even more special. One of the highlights was the mattress it was very comfortable and the best night sleep I ever had. We do not usually stay in places like this but we were so glad we did. It truly was the perfect getaway and we will be definitely recommending and coming back very soon! A solid 10/10

Cosy, comfortable, clean and the perfect location for exploring everything that the Lake District offers - fells, coast and lakes !

Would definitely stay there again !

We hadn’t noticed that the bed was on a mezzanine, and accessed by a ladder!

As two pensioners with arthritis, we couldn’t access it. Very very small ‘cottage’, just a converted outhouse. No room, and basic facilities, we didn’t stay!

Fab little bolt hold for a short hiking trip.

Owners checked to see if we needed anything. Lovely treats left by the owner on arrival. Surrounded by gorgeous animals in field behind. Lovely stay x

We had a truly wonderful experience staying at High Wrea, Bolt Hole Residence.

From start to finish, Carol’s hospitality was outstanding and made us feel completely at home. On the day of our arrival, we were misdirected by Google Maps, but Carol kindly offered to come out and guide us personally. Her kindness and attentiveness immediately gave us a positive impression of our stay in the Lake District. The house itself was cosy, clean, and very comfortable, offering plenty of entertainment including board games, a television, and access to outdoor attractions like Carol’s lovely farm animals. The area is beautifully secluded, offering a peaceful and relaxing environment that’s perfect for unwinding. What stood out the most was the unique opportunity to see the farm animals up close, and of course, Carol’s incredible hospitality. She was always responsive and went above and beyond to ensure we had a perfect stay. We would highly recommend High Wrea, Bolt Hole to anyone planning a visit to the Lake District. It truly feels like a home away from home and is ideally located close to popular sites. Thank you, Carol, for such a memorable stay!

We had a fantastic break and really enjoyed our stay.

Carol was exceptionally kind and helpful. The property was wonderful, was exactly as advertised and contained everything we needed, and more. We certainly plan to return when we can. Thank you.

The most relaxing place in the world

Lovely cottage and really nice people around you will definitely be going back there

Loverly little place nice and cozy can't fault the owners or cleanliness of the place at all all it was very nice I think the listings photos were a little deceptive making it look like the building was on its own somewhere on a road its not its on farmland with a house right opposite the property and a holiday caravan and the owners home next to it There's no oven in the kitchen so if you want to cook a meal it's micro wave or bedsit style hot plate and the fire isn't an open one or woodburner despite the pokers and bucket of coal in the photos its electric To add You would be way too hot with a real fire the place had an electric radiator and was allways warm it was just something I was looking forward to in my stay and thought this had it Only real issues with the place is the bathroom is tiny if your a big person 6ft its very hard to use the shower the cubical is tiny As an idea of space you can use the bathroom sink and open shower cubicle sitting on the toilet And climbing a ladder to bed is not really as much fun as you remember as a teenager when your nearly 50 Wouldent stop me coming back though I enjoyed my stay overall

The property felt homely because of the little extra touches that Carol had provided .

sweets and decorations for Halloween. Bread milk biscuits as a welcome . The property was thoughtfully decorated with a lovely homely feel. Carol was so welcoming and friendly. We were made to feel so welcome .

Title: The Lake Districts Bolthole Location: High Wreah Bolt Hole is perfectly located, and I found it to be an ideal base for exploring the area, with numerous picturesque spots just a short distance away.

Amenities: The bolthole itself is well-equipped with all the modern conveniences you could need. The kitchen is fully stocked, making it easy to prepare meals, and the living area is cozy and comfortable, perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night’s sleep. Experience: Absolutely nothing to complain about. My stay was nothing short of wonderful. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and at the start of the break, even provided a rescue service, after I had got lost when my Satnav sent me to the wrong address Highlights: One of the standout features of High Wreah, is its proximity to some of the Lake District’s most famous attractions. Buttermere, Wasdale and Keswick are only a 40 minute drive, with plenty of photographic opportunities along the way. Additionally, the peaceful and tranquil setting of the cabin made it a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Improvements: The tv signal was a bit spotty at times. However, this minor inconvenience did not detract from our overall experience. Overall, I highly recommend High Wreah Bolt Hoke to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable stay in the Lake District.

We had a lovely stay at the High Wreah Bolt Hole.

The host, Carol, was so friendly and welcoming and went above and beyond for us during our stay. The only thing to be mindful of is the bathroom is really small; My boyfriend is 6 foot and couldn’t fit in the shower comfortably. The WiFi was also out of range the whole stay so it might be worthwhile to download anything you might need before you go. Other than that it was a beautiful little place

The Bolt Holt is fabulous and the owner, Carol, has thought of everything, down to the smallest detail.

Unfortunately we had to leave after one night as our elderly dog took unwell. Carol was so sweet and text me several times to enquire after our dog. Highly recommend The Bolt Hole and will definitely return .

Absolutely brilliant property, the host is outstanding and made everything so easy.

We will treasure this wee cottage and will be back

Fabulous quirky ‘away from it all’ in this quant bolt hole !

! Tastefully decorated with a bed you could sleep in forever!! Lovely friendly hosts within the small holding and gorgeous ducks walking around with their young . Great walks, and a good spot for exploring the area . Definitely feel relaxed and revitalised since visiting! Thankyou hosts for sharing your place

Had a lovely stay at High Wreah, very peaceful surroundings, welcoming host, great base to visit west coast and mountains, thanks Carol for the welcoming basket much appreciated.

Fantastic little stay, has everything you need for a getaway!

Loved all the animals around the property and how close it is to the Western Fells. Only downside for some would be that the property probably needs it's own Wifi connection as it was out of range all week for my device and the digi TV, as I was out hiking most days this wasn't an issue for myself but may be for some.

Lovely cute property, exactly as described Host had left some essentials lovely touch.

We've had a lovely visit and would highly recommend the bolt hole to friends.

A beautiful location and very attentive, helpful and friendly owner.

It should be noted that access to the sleeping area requires some agility so not suitable for the less able bodied. However, once up there it is comfortable. A fun location with interesting history.

Lovely cottage, very well presented, friendly host, small bathroom tho.

Had a fabulous time.

Property is quaint and a real cosy getaway for two. Had a lovely welcoming hamper and treats for our two dogs which was most appreciated . Will definitely return!
