Rose Cottage in Broughton-In-Furness | Must-See Cumbria Hot Tub Cottage

About Rose Cottage

Rose Cottage is a traditional stone farmhouse in Broughton Mills, a quiet hamlet in the Western Lake District. This working farm property gives you stunning views across the Lickle Valley from almost every window. Just 2 miles from Broughton-In-Furness market town, it's rural without being too remote.

The Lake District location puts you in prime position for exploring Cumbria's less crowded western fells. Coniston Water is just 6 miles away for swimming, boating or simply admiring the scenery. After a day of hiking, the Blacksmith Arms pub is practically on your doorstep.

The accommodation sleeps 6 across three bedrooms: a family room with one double (zip/link, can be twin) and one single, plus a separate double and single room. The characterful lounge features a woodburning stove, while the country-style kitchen/diner has everything needed for proper meals. The family bathroom includes a shower over bath setup.

Visit Coniston Water (6 miles, 15 min drive), historic Muncaster Castle (12 miles, 25 mins), Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway (14 miles, 30 mins) or Grizedale Forest (9 miles, 20 mins) for mountain biking and treetop adventures.

Rose Cottage Reviews

Allison

The cottage was lovely, warm and cosy, with a welcome bag of cake and jams, plus a bottle of wine, the owners were also very welcoming and helpful. whilst we were there two calf's were born, which was lovely. the pub is in walking distance but those with mobility problems would find it difficult and the country lane is dark, so possibly need a torch. I think 5pm access is a bit late especially in winter, as we passed the cottage and got lost, just because we didn't know the area. so maybe in winter allow access before it goes dark.

Judith

Rose Cottage was the perfect venue for a weekend getaway for myself and my daughters. We enjoyed sitting under the stars in the hot tub, cosy evenings by the fire and cooking a delicious roast dinner in the well equipped kitchen. The beds were very comfortable, crisp white linen and plenty of towels. The setting was magnificent. In better weather I would imagine there would be fantastic walking opportunities. The location was peaceful but in easy reach of tourist spots like Windermere. I would highly recommend the shopping experience of Chesters by the River at Ambleside and delicious hot chocolate at Choccobar at BownessonWindermere.

Rose Cottage was perfect! It was well equipped, beautiful, cosy, comfortable. The cottage felt very rural yet the pub was a very short walk and the village a short drive away. The log fire, views and beams were an amazing contrast to the hot tub and WiFi. There was even a lovely welcome pack with beautiful biscuits, fresh bread and milk, and tea bags , coffee, sugar which was fully appreciated and we were very grateful for! We were a multigenerational family group and I believe that no one wanted to leave and everyone is planning on when they can return.

We have stayed in a lot of holiday rents and this is one of the best. It had everything you needed and was set in a beautiful landscape.

Very cosy cottage is a bit remote but that didnt spoil the holiday. Beds so comfortable. Enjoyed the log burner. Kitchen very well equipped. Highlight was the hot tub and the Lovley views from it.

Stayed in this beautiful cottage in October. Cottage was lovely inside and out. Very comfortable with everything you could possibly need for your stay. View from top patio area where amazing. I would definitely recommend and would stay again.

Amanda

Lovely cottage, fully equipped with everything you could need. Comfortable beds and good sized rooms. Appreciated the inclusion of towels, bedding, milk and bread on arrival plus the wood bundle which we did take advantage of. Friendly locals and stunning location. Thanks for a wonderful break in the lakes!!

The cottage was beautiful, loved our stay. The description doesn't do it justice! The views from the hot tub were amazing! It was a great base for our lake district exploration. We did Coniston, Eskdale tonguepot, Wastwater, Scafell pike and Ritsons force. Ideal for this area. Broughton is a picturesque village, looks like it probably did in 1950s! Very lovely. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The beds and sofas were so comfy. The blacksmiths arms down the road was very good, very nice food. All in all a fantastic time

We stayed at this stunning property for a week in July and we loved everything about it. From the stunning log fire in the living area to the amazing views and not forgetting the hot tub. There is nothing that has been forgotten at this property the kitchen had everything you needed. The beds were so comfy I nearly packed it in the car to bring it home. I always struggle to sleep when I am away from home but I spelt like a log at this place. The fact that this property is on a working farm just added to the whole experience. The owners were polite and very helpful with anything we asked them. The only thing I would suggest would be a mat for the bath, this didnt really bother us but a member of our group has mobility issues and only the use of 1 arm so getting in made it a bit tricky and slippy but apart from that everything was absolutely amazing and we wanted to send a massive thank you to the owners from everyone in the Berrisford Family. We will be back!

Serina

Amazing stay. Highly recommend. The cottage was beautiful and immaculate. The photos on the site need updated to reflect how stunning the place actually is that's my only feedback. I look forward to booking again.

Louise

A lovely property in a great location with fantastic views of the valley from the patio area and hot tub. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Lots of great walks on the doorstep and only a short walk to the local pub

I was amazed with just how clean and cozy this cottage was. Very homely, nice layout and well decorated with some great attention to detail. Me and my K9 companion absolutely loved it. The views from the hot tub are insane. We will definitely be back 1010

Stacey

Great stay. Only downside was mobile signal which cant be helped. Everything was clean and well kept.

Kirsty

Gorgeous cottage, very clean and comfy beds and settees. Kitchen was well equipped with cafetiere, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. Hairdryer in the bedroom and plenty of plug sockets which is a plus in an old cottage! The hot tub was fabulous, views were spectacular and the cottage was a lot quieter than we expected with it being on a working farm too. The steps up to the hot tub had a good handrail so was easy to navigate even in the dark. Would definitely come back if we return to that area of the Lakes.

Rose cottage is a hidden gem in the Lake District! It is evident the owners care and are experienced in letting out their lovely property. Attention to detail was superb for example, the fire was made up ready to light with a good supply of kindling, paper, logs and coal not to forget lots of matches. The beds were firm yet comfy, with high quality linen. The shower was nice and hot and powerful which is rare in such a period cottage. The original oak beams and flag stone flooring was carefully blended with modern touches. Constructive feedback 1. The chemicals used in the hot tub were overpowering and made our eyes water and caused coughing on the first use mitigated by leaving the cover off for 15 mins before use and not turning on the jets, this dissipated on repeated use over the next few days. That said the views from the hot tub were just stunning! 2. The curtains in the main bedroom would benefit from some blackout lining or black out blinds as the light streamed through them at sunrise. 3. Very minor it would be helpful to provide salt for cooking, and a shaver plugpoint would also be great mainly because I forgot to bring them!. Summary This is a superb cottage, which I fully recommend. Its location and facilities were above expectations and I will definitely consider staying there again.

Fabulous cottage, was big enough for us and our two teenagers. The furnishings are comfy with new sofas since the photos were taken. Everything you need kitchen wise and the hot tub was a lovely extra. There are steps up to the garden but these werent a problem for us. A great view from the patio and hot tub and such a lovely quieter area of the lakes, some nice walks from the door. The pub in the village serves lovely food and everyone was very friendly. We ate there twice on the week its only a 1015 minute walk. The hosts are close by and were friendly and helpful.

Yvette

Rose cottage was a delight every thing was well maintained and very clean. The only criticism I can find is that the water pressure to the shower was very poor, I would recommend Rose cottage and look forward to arranging another visit in the future

We loved our stay here! The photos havent been updated so it was such a nice surprise to see the huge bed in the main bedroom and also the new sofas. It had everything we needed, the views were stunning and we would definitely recommend. The pictures dont do it justice.

Amazing little cottage! Very clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend

Andrew

Our second visit and still a lovely well appointed property in an idyllic area. We were not blessed with the best weather obviously an expected occurrence in the Lake District but were still able to keep children and adults occupied.

Rose cottage was perfect. It was so clean and well equipped, much more that I've experienced at previous locations. There was milk, tea and coffee, bread and biscuits when we arrived which was so welcome. Beautiful garden but only accessible via steps which was fine for us. The hot tub was clean and a great addition to the stay. A great location, very high standard, cannot recommend this cottage enough!

Amazing cottage. Had everything you needed and catered for 6 people very well. Lovely location and the hot tub was brilliant. Perfect stay and would definitely recommend. Hosts were lovely and welcoming. Very clean property. About a 20 minute drive to Coniston water which was fab for paddle boarding. Would stay again!!

Great place to stay, wonderful views. Clean comfortable cottage that had everything we needed and the welcome package was perfect. Will definitely stay there again.

Michelle

This cottage is truely stunning, the views are amazing and the interior has been so tastefully decorated. Beds super comfy, just being tall the low ceilings werent ideal but its a cottage so thats part of charm. Fresh eggs just outside to buy and off road parking a bonus. Only issues for us was water pressure disappeared on 3rd day, the location is just so remote so having to drives miles for any kind of shop or bigger village town was very annoying. Roads are deadly single tracks for miles and miles. Also would be good to have or pay for a welcome pack had this in other cottages as no milk etc after travelling hours to then drive 9 miles to get milk was not good. Lastly a small welcome note to list cottage owner numbers and local recommendations is always a nice touch. Local village pub was lovely but just again super pricey! No signal for phones which yes is nice but we had a child on holiday and a sick relative so couldnt call or text anyone but thats just maybe us being too used to convience. The cottage and hot tub views 1010.

A most enjoyable weekend! Rose cottage is charming and very beautiful. Everything one can think of is supplied! Clean and extremely comfortable! The only problem for us was no direct access onto the secure garden. Being listed as dog friendly we took this to mean our dogs would be able to access the garden whenever nature called! Unfortunately, the access is only via the front door through an open patio garden and up rather steep steps and the wire fencing was large enough for our miniature pincher's to escape so they had to be leashed at all times.

Lovely to be back and the recent updates are lovely. The new bed and sofas are super comfortable! Still reckon you have one of the best hot tub views in the UK. A lovely week and the Blacksmiths Arma continued to deliver lovely food.

Andrew

A wonderful cottage for a weekend getaway. Very comfortable, well equipped, and in very picturesque surroundings which would have been stunning except for the Lake District weather! Didnt stop us getting in the hottub though, which we enjoyed. The Blacksmiths Arms 10 minutes down the lane is outstanding for food, but a booking for a table is a must. Will certainly look to book Rose Cottage again for sure, it was pretty much perfect.

Helene

We had a lovely stay at Rose Cottage. It is a beautiful, peaceful location, perfectly clean, great amenities, such as washer, dryer and dishwasher. The owners are friendly and helpful. Situated directly next to a working farm, my toddler enjoyed watching the coming and going of sheep and tractors, but this is not at all noticeable when inside the cottage, its very private and quiet which is lovely as well. Hot tub is a lovely addition and the views are amazing. Pub a short walk down the lane is cosy and makes amazing food with veggie and vegan options catered for as well! Would book this cottage again in the future.

Beautiful property Quite remote, but suited us, drove past it, difficult to spot from direction of main road. Should of took more groceriesdrinks with us. Well kept property well furnished and equipped Lovely log burner which was ready to start, slight problem as only 1 match which went out before lighting, gas lighter maybe easier? Enough wood and coal supplied for 23 days which was good Great views from hot tub Would definitely stay there again when going to area

Jennie

Lovely cottage in a quiet location. View from hot tub is amazing and house has everything you need. Was difficult to find in the dark.. especially as satnav postcode does not take you to cottage...and depends on your approach..we came down hill towards it and could not see cottage as tucked away to the left behind a wall! People in blacksmiths arms are very friendly and helpful ..which is where satnav takes you but do not take your car down the road in front of the pub as you may get stuck!! Overall a lovely stay and now we know how to find it would definitely recommend to others!!

Lovely location, lovely people, great cottage

Beautiful property, clean and warm and lovely hosts, we had a wonderful time and will be back. Thank you!

Rose Cottage is a lovely home from home, its spotlessly clean and the beds are sooooo comfortable its difficult to drag yourself out of them to explore the beautiful Eskdale and Duddon Valleys. Views from the hot tub are stunning. We will definitely go back. The Blacksmiths Arms pub which is a few minutes walk away is excellent too.

A lovely 2 night stay here. Very remote but that is what we were hoping for. Very easy to access Coniston for paddle boarding. A nice pub along the road to the right about 5 minutes away. Lovely, picturesque setting. Hot tub was great for our stay and enjoyed by all. Dog friendly. High chair and booster seat available for dining chair. Travel cot was much appreciated too. Parking for 2 vehicles. Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues wanting to access the garden frequently as the steps are quiet steep. There is a handrail. Not a problem for our party and the views from up there were amazing! A beautiful country cottage. Thank you

The cottage was fantastic, especially the beds which were very comfy and the hot tub! ! Great location to spend a week unwinding with the family.

Tenzin

Very nice cottage and location. Views are unreal from the hot tub. First cottage weve been to that only had 2 slots which was the only small thing that can be pointed out taking into account it sleeps 6 people. We arrived later than the scheduled check in and someone was doing their personal washing which was a little bit strange but seemed a nice guy. Possibly the owner or a relative. Would recommend this cottage.

Benjamin

First class experience as always. Owners couldn't have been more helpful. We'll be back.

Fantastic holiday with Rose Cottage as a base. ....view from hot tub is amazing, cottage has everything you need, whole family loved it including 2 dogs.....if you want a relaxing place to use a base then I thoroughly recommend Rose cottage....

Kerry-ann

Rose cottage was beautiful, perfect family holiday. The kitchen well stocked with everything we could possibly need. All the rooms are a good size and beds very comfortable. The landscape is stunning, plenty of beautiful walks. Local pub charming and friendly too. Owner close by, helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend
