Reviews for this holiday chateau / country house rental in Cumbria - Lake District, United Kingdom

Rating
5 out of 5

A true lakes retreat with historic feel

Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We stayed at Millgillhead in the summer and we had a really great time. The house is large and spacious with semi galleried landing and
an interesting and satisfying layout. The house was we thought of early georgian origin and has quality furnishings in period and the kitchen is fully stocked for 12 settings with pretty much every extra you need. There is a well kitted out ulitlity room off the kitchen and the dining room is off the kitchen so easy for prep and dinner. All of the bedrooms are a little different with character. The garden was also large and captivating with a lovely shallow stream. The village is rural and there are many walks from the door or nearby and we found This area of the Lakes to be magnificent. The children walked for hours without complaint up many hills! sailing at Lake Derwent Water and Coniston was also interesting as it was windy!. we hope to visit again soon as this was the holiday with a little difference.
