Coniston is simply an excellent base for any Lake District holiday. The village is packed with friendly pubs, local shops and lively cafes and there is incredible walking straight from the village centre, including the iconic Coniston Old Man. The village enjoys ample access to Coniston Water lake shore, with Coniston Boating Centre offering paddle-boarding, kayaking, sailing and more. There are also plenty of opportunities for wild-swimming including the lake, beautiful mountain tarns and the picturesque Church Beck river with its stunning waterfalls and deep, crystal clear pools. For cyclists, there are spectacular off-road mountain biking trails including those at nearby Grizedale Forest, as well as some stunning road routes through some of the country's most beautiful scenery.
For those who enjoy a quieter pace, The Ruskin Museum, which depicts the fascinating history of the area including the famous water speed record attempt of Donald Campbell is a must visit. While on the eastern shores of the lake lies Brantwood, the Victorian home of John Ruskin, where visitors can explore the historic house and vibrant arts centre and enjoy some delicious food from The Terrace cafe with its breath-taking lake and mountain views.
The wider Lake District area is also very easily accessible from Coniston, with popular destinations such as Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere just a short drive away.
In short, Coniston offers everything you could possibly want of a Lake District holiday - all right on your doorstep.

We loved our stay at Yewdale Cottage. The cottage is so comfortable and really well stocked with everything you need. Our toddler loved the fell view at the back. Yewdale Cottage is a perfect base to explore Coniston and surrounding areas. We have visited Coniston numerous times over the years and will definitely be back to Yewdale Cottage. Also in addition, thanks to your guys at Coppermines who sorted the issue with the heating so promptly. Everyone we spoke to over the couple of days when we had the issue was so helpful and friendly. We've been staying in your cottages years now and the service is always first class.

We have just returned from a weeks stay from Yewdale Cottage at Coniston. We loved the cottage, finding it to be well-equipped and very comfortable. We plan to return there soon. It is perfectly positioned for quick and easy access to the village which is well stocked with everything required during a holiday. 10/10!!

We had a fantastic stay at Yewdale cottage. It was spotlessly clean, welcoming & warm. The brook running through the garden is just perfect, the view from the back garden is breathtaking taking and we enjoyed sitting out, reading a book & just letting the world go by. The Indian in the village is lovely, had some nice drinks in the sun & the Yewdale inn. Coniston water is absolutely beautiful. Coniston will always hold a special place in our hearts and memories. Coppermines were great from start to finish. Thank you.

I have stayed at Yewdale Cottage several times now and love this cottage, It has a real homely feel. The beds are really comfortable and the views from the dining area and kitchen are amazing. I enjoyed sitting in the front garden enjoying my morning coffee when the sun was out, when it wasn’t the cosy log burner in the lounge was a nice touch, not that you needed it as the house stays very warm. I would definitely recommend.

This was our first booking with Coppermines Lakes Cottages and we have been very impressed. We had a 4 night stay at Yewdale Cottage, Coniston. The cottage was very well equipped and spotlessly clean. The location is also excellent in the heart of Coniston. We will definitely return.

Finally a cottage that is as we would have it if it were ours - two bathrooms, two showers that work at the same time and plenty of drying space. We would definitely return.

This is our third visit to Yewdale Cottage and we will be back. The cottage has everything we need, and it always satisfies all our needs. The view from the kitchen window is fabulous. It is also quiet and peaceful, but close enough to the village shops and pubs.

I would rate Yewdale Cottage as excellent. I have used Coppermines in the past and would again in the future. We met the lady that does the housekeeping and I have to say she was extremely helpful. We were impressed with how clean and tidy the cottage was and felt that she deserved the recognition. Thank you for your help. WE will be booking another cottage for next year!

The cottage surpassed our expectations. It was spotlessly clean in these sad Covid times. There was most of the tools and equipment I needed for four days of meal prep. The books and guides and very welcome. The space for all our things in the en suite was much appreciated. We really enjoyed our stay and had a great sense of achievement when we walked the Old Man of Coniston.

Stayed in Coniston loads of times but this little cottage has now gone to the top of our most enjoyed places we have stayed; really cosy, well-equipped and lovely view. The Black Bull was as nice as ever, Wilson's at Torver do great chips and the best pint of Loweswater Gold! We will be back again if it is available!

Looking back in the visitor's book it would seem that this is our 16th visit! We had lovely weather so walked from Ambleside to Troutbeck via Wansfell Pike and returned via the lower fells. A lovely teashop break in Troutbeck revived us! We also visited Grizedale Forest and explored a part that was new to us. We are planning to return later in the year.
