Yew Tree Farm in Coniston | Must-See Cumbria Hot Tub Cottage

About Yew Tree Farm

Yew Tree Farm is a Grade II listed farmhouse that once belonged to Beatrix Potter. Located in the Lake District near Coniston Water, this historic 17th-century property served as Miss Potter's home in the film 'Miss Potter'. The farm sits at the head of Coniston Water with stunning views across the Lake District National Park and offers a perfect mix of authentic period features with modern comforts.

Set on a working farm with friendly cats and dogs roaming about, you'll get a genuine countryside experience. Take the spectacular walk from the farm to Coniston village where you'll find excellent pubs, an independent wine shop and a Co-op for essentials. After exploring the fells, soak your tired muscles in the private hot tub while gazing at the stars. Fancy something different? Book Jo's Herdwick Experience where you can actually cuddle up to sheep in a field better than any dating app, right?

The accommodation features three bedrooms: a king-size with en-suite shower, a romantic four-poster double and a twin with en-suite. The cottage boasts creaky wooden floors, antique furniture and two open fireplaces. Modern amenities include a fully-equipped kitchen, dishwasher, Sky TV and WiFi though guests note it can be spotty, so maybe actually talk to each other instead?

Visit Coniston Water (1 mile, 5 minutes), climb the Old Man of Coniston (2.5 miles, 10 minutes), explore Tarn Hows (2 miles, 8 minutes), or head to Ambleside (8 miles, 20 minutes). The property's unique history and the chance to buy delicious Herdwick lamb and Belted Galloway beef directly from Jon's butcher shop make this a truly special Lake District experience.

Yew Tree Farm offers the perfect balance of historical character and comfort. With its hot tub, cosy beds with luxurious bedding and three bathrooms including a corner bath, it's ideal for families or friends seeking a genuine Lake District experience. The thoughtful touches fresh flowers and wine on arrival show why guests keep returning to this magical property.

Yew Tree Farm Reviews

Jonathan

Yew Tree Cottage met and exceeded our expectations. The cottage is very comfortable and atmospheric, and has a wonderfully authentic feel. It didnt require much imagination to feel the extraordinary legacy of Beatrix Potter and her commitment to sustainable farming. Yew Tree Farm is impressive in so many ways. We had a number of interactions with Jon Watson who was charming, and the Herdwick Experience was terrific educational and fun. Ive visited the Lake District many times over the course of my life, and this visit was amongst the best.

Genevieve

Tree Cottage is a terrific holiday venue that is full of authentic character but has modern amenities like central heating, TV, microwave and wifi. The house was once owned by Beatrix Potter and still contains some of her furniture. It is wonderfully decorated with period wallpaper and other fittings that brings you into another age of British history. The cottage garden surrounding the house is beautifully designed and full of wonderful flowers. It is a working farm which is great fun as you see sheep, cows and sheep dogs but it still manages to be quiet and restful. The farmer and his staff couldn't be kinder or more helpful and adds to the fun of holidaying there. We stayed there during the summer and the weather was glorious. While the holiday is one we'll always remember and love, improvements could be made with the Sykes company itself and not with the owners of Yew Tree Cottage who were terrific. One of the phone numbers you are advised to contact for information by Sykes only yields an email response which took them 24 hours to respond to. When you call the Emergency Phone number you get a response but the room that the operators are using was very noisy and it was difficult to hear their response. Still, all worked out well in the end and we have the happiest feelings towards Yew Tree Cottage and would love to return.

Georgina

What a wonderful time in such a special cottage. Everything was immaculate and we wanted for nothing. We had booked our next holiday here before we left! Cant recommend Yew Tree Cottage high enough!

A beautiful, old, iconic stone cottage, sitting on a working farm, just outside Coniston. What more could you want? If this is not your idea of perfection, then you're staying in the wrong place. Heritage Meats is also on site, some of the best produce you could ever eat, a friendly educational butcher too. Jon, the farmer, is warm & welcoming, and so are the dogs & cats . We had 2 Herdwick tups in the field next to the gated front garden, friendly and curious too! The bird feeders were stocked up, busy with finches, siskins, tits & sparrows. The hot tub was a great delight at the end of a walking day, even when it was raining. The property is well furnished, but remember it is old. Spiders like dark spaces, the floors are creeky & it's cool inside the thick walls. However the heating works well and the open fires are fully stocked.

Stephen

A fantastic break in a wonderful part of the country. The house was all we expected and our hosts were perfect. We couldnt have asked for more.

Bernard

The scope of access to the farm area was a little confusing, with one person saying we could access areas of the farm and another essentially requiring us to stay within the boundaries of the front lawn. Other than mixed messages from the occupants, everything was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The scenery and surrounds are idyllic.

Our best holiday yet! Just returned from a truly relaxing and wonderful week at Yew Tree Farm. We normally go for modern properties but were drawn in by the fact that this used to belong to Beatrix Potter, the location and the idea of having a hot tub to relax in after a long walk! The place just feels so inviting and relaxing, and sitting watching the birds from the dining room table was such a great way to start the day! We used the main bedroom and the bed was super comfy, showers were fantastic, plenty of hot water and the double bath was also wonderful. We loved being on the farm, with the friendly cats and dogs. Hosts Jon and Jo were lovely, we also booked the Herdwick Experience run by Jo and totally recommend it, sitting in a field in the sunshine with a sheep happily sitting beside you was an amazing experience. Also you can buy beef and lamb onsite as Jon runs a butchers and it tastes delicious. Although we already have other holidays booked with Sykes for this year, we are now looking ahead to next year to see when we can return to this amazing place!

Vanessa

We had a really lovely time at Yew Tree Cottage thank you. . The cottage is situated in an area of outstanding beauty . We enjoyed soaking up the Beatrix Potter Experience! We did struggle with the fire in the lounge all week as it was difficult to keep it going..once lighted. We cooked a roast but struggled with the utensils as some were broken .. when we arrived there was dog poo left on the wall by previous guests as you walked to the hot tub which was disappointing Think cleaner needs to check the area before change over . The best part of the holiday was taking part in the Herdwick Experience.. Thank you so much Jo! We plan to return.. A big thank you so much for a memorable holiday ..

This is our 3rd visit to YewTree Farm and we will be back. The beds are really comfy and showers, bath and towels are great. Always lots of hot water and towels which actually dry you. Jon and Jo are fabulous hosts, always there if you need them but otherwise unobtrusive. Only one small comment re cleaning, whoever cleans the property should maybe dust a little more, especially tv cabinet and sky box etc which was thick with dust. Will not stop us returning though as the place is just magical and the meat from heritage Meats is always delicious.

Yew Tree Farm is noting short of magical. Absolutely quintessential English farm cottage retaining its historic charm and character in a breathtaking setting. The fact that it is still situated on a working farm only adds to the experience. Jo and John, the farmers, were wonderfully hospitable, including a welcoming note and bottle of wine. The various farm dogs and cats, particularly Tom the blackandwhite cat, took us in like family. Very convenient to the local village of Coniston, which has all the essentials we needed an outstanding independent wine shop, Bottles & Brews a coop for all grocery needs several excellent pubs and a petrol station well stocked with firewood for the two open fires. Then also very easy drive to nearby Ambleside, Grasmere, and Windermere, and a beautiful trek farther afield to Keswick. Also convenient to several nearby fells Holme for an easy warmup and, of course, Old Man of Coniston. I must also recommend nearby Graythwaite Estate for archery and clay pigeon shooting. Our guide, Simon, was absolutely delightful and great with our children. Cant recommend him enough. Already looking forward to a return visit.

It was a dream come true to visit Yew Tree Farm. It is more beautiful than anticipated. We were very comfortable in the cottage. Plenty of room for the two of us. The accommodations were very cozy. The farm is stunning. Loved watching the sheep and enjoyed the cats and dogs roaming about. Memories to treasure. Thank you.

Overall the accommodation was lovely. We were very disappointed with the WiFi strength as it was very intermittent and kept cutting out. My ptnr joined us for the break and had to work during the day, this proved very difficult for him due to the poor wifi. We also couldnt use it to watch anything on the fire stick which we took with us as a back up just incase the sky tv which was advertised wasnt up to standard. The sky tv was rubbish, you needed a pin to access anything decent to watch which was not available in the property, we asked the owners who work and live on site and they had no clue and werent really bothered. So the evenings were pretty boring with two teenagers who were only able to watch eastenders or come dine with me. The property is advertised as having WiFi and sky tvwhilst this is true the services are not of a suitable standard to be able to use them effectively. Also whilst I appreciate the property is part of a working farm it was a little unsettling and disruptive being able to hear the owners conversations as if they were in the next room as theyre property was attached to the main bedroom. Overall was lovely and picturesque but by no means perfect

Superb beyond words! John and Jo were wonderful and everything about the cottage is perfect.

Rupert

Top notch holiday cottage, atmospheric, loved the creakyness, brilliant location, The taxidermy was not to our modern taste particularly with 2 vegetarians in our party! We have been to the Lakes many times but never stayed anywhere as special as Yew Tree Farm, we feel privileged to have stayed there.

Superb beyond words! John and Jo were wonderful and everything about the cottage is perfect.

Privileged to stay in this authentic seventeenth century farmhouse, albeit with the benefit of modern plumbing! And the Belted Galloway and Herdwick Jon sold us were delicius. Lovely hosts. Thank you.

Rachel

What a beautiful property set in a stunning location with a short drive to local amenities. The cottage is spacious and full of character, if you like anything Beatrix Potter related you are going to love this place. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds are extremely comfortable, all bedrooms have their own bathroom and the hot tub is wonderful, we enjoyed our stay so much we have booked again for the winter, thank you Jon and Jo for a lovely stay.

Cheryl

We absolutely loved our stay at Yew Tree, wonderful house in a great location. Thank you for the lovely wine and flowers x

We had the best time. The house was warm and comfortable, especially the king 4 poster bed, we slept so well. Jon and Jo were friendly and welcoming. We went on a few walks, the one from the farm to Coniston was spectacular, a must do for anyone staying over. We loved the old worldliness of the 17th century floors, staircases and the antique furniture. The flowers, wine and milk left for us were very welcome. Having a break from our busy, busy lives was really appreciated, we couldnt have picked a more perfect place to stay. Ben the weather was kind.

This an enchanting property that has every charm and character of the Lake District. The extra touches of a beautiful bunch of flowers to greet you as you arrive, down to a pint of milk in the fridge after a long drive is really appreciated. Anyone who stays here will feel thats its a perfect choice and a wonderful location. I highly recommend the Herdwick experience, I learnt so much and found it incredibly interesting and to get to cuddle up close the Herdwicks is an unforgettable experience. I felt incredibly sad leaving but Im taking with me precious memories and will definitely will book to stay again. Thankyou.

Andrew

We had a great stay we loved the house and Jo and Jon were lovely we loved house ... We had a great stay we loved the house and Jo and Jon were lovely we loved house as it was great for our older dogs they loved their fenced in garden a great holiday had by all of us

We have stayed at Yew Tree Farm several times and love it. However our two previous bookings were cancelled because of Covid and this time we had no power for 3 days in freezing temperatures. We were grateful for Jon's help in lighting open fires for us when we arrived and providing candles.He also managed to borrow a generator on the third evening which provided heating and hot water and lighting in our bedroom. That was a relief because we had been very cold at night. We really appreciated the generosity and friendliness of those at Coniston Community Centre who provided a warm room, a hot drink and a bacon butty. Many thanks for that. It was so sad to see the devastation caused by Storm Arwen.

A couple of baking trays for the oven need to be added as there was no way of cooking food in the oven without wrapping the shelves in foil to use as a form of tray also a few more mugs would have been appreciated. Otherwise we loved our stay at the Farm. We bought some meat from the on site butchery to bring home which was lovely. Great friendly farmers at the farm. We would love to go back sometime, thanks.

Meriel

Magical home and location. Wonderful walks straight from the door. Friendly hosts. Definitely wish to stay again! A large bowl to serve salads etc in would be welcome in an otherwise well equipped kitchen. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Robert

We stayed at yew tree farm just before Christmas with our grandchildren, we all had a fabulous time and the walk into conniston from the cottage was beautiful. The cottage itself was picture perfect,and set in the most wonderful position.

We have had an amazing three nights at Yew Tree farm. Jo and Jon were really friendly and welcoming. The cottage is amazing, packed with character. It was lovely and warm on a night after a nice dip in the hot tub, so peaceful, a great place to recharge the batteries. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

We had a fabulous stay and loved the experience of staying at Yew Tree Farm. There was everything we needed to enjoy our family weekend and thank you so much for the wine, flowers, milk and card.

A lovely stay in the most photographed cottage in The Lakes, very atmospheric property definitely feels like you walking in Miss Potters footsteps. Clean and comfy beds, and constant hot water. The meat from Yew Tree farm shop was delicious and we really enjoyed doing the Herdwick experience it was very informative and great to cuddle the Herdys who were super friendly. A perfect place to stay if you want the experience of going back in time has the decor of the property is very olde world.

Hannah

The cottage was amazing and it was such an experience staying somewhere so old. John and Jo were very welcoming and gave us lots of tips on all things local. It was also lovely having bird feeders right outside the window, we saw birds weve never seen before. Yew tree cottage was a great base to explore from, as a family we walked along footpaths to Coniston, and we were within easy reach of Hawkeshead, Ambleside and Windermere by car.

Richard

A magical place with lovely people. Have never had a more relaxing break. Produce from the butchers was fantastic. Love the fact its so dog friendly. Looking forward to going back in December.

A great dog friendly cottage on a working farm with lots of character and charm. Jo and Jon the resident farmers are very friendly, welcoming and showed us the farm animals. Easy check. Relaxing walks from the front door. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings. Good showers and lots of hot water. Beds also very comfy. I would recommend this cottage.

Rachel

This cottage is a beautiful, characteristic and historical home that our family were very happy to spend our New Year in. We enjoyed watching the birds on the feeder every morning! The beds were so comfy and the kitchen was equipped with all the necessities. Within the most beautiful surroundings and the lovely quaint village of Coniston within easy access. We have a very relaxed week and enjoyed the hot tub!

Catherine

We spent Christmas at Yew Tree Farm, its an incredible experience, as its a Grade 2 listed building, set in the most beautiful scenic area and also a working farm. I felt privileged to be able to stay in such a historic building. Inside its decorated in William Morris wallpaper, with creeky floors and beams and wonderful old furniture. The bathrooms, all three of them are well equipped with strong pressure showers and one has a wonderful huge bath. Three bedrooms, two with four poster beds, and one twin have crisp white linen and heavy duvets all of exceptional quality. Theres a well presented dining room, which I dressed for Christmas with paper chains and fairy lights. There was a Christmas tree provided and little Christmassy touches throughout. The living room with an open fire was cozy and comfortable and you could almost feel the history of the place. Every attention to detail with lamps and fittings all appropriate to the building. There was a secure stone walled private garden, where my Schnauzer dog played and around the side of the property a hot tub which was the perfect place to spend an evening. The kitchen has everything you could need to prepare a full Christmas dinner or any other meal you may care to make. The property is well situated, for walks and close enough to visit Ambleside and Hawkshead. The owners work and live on site but are busy, and you really only see them about their jobs, though it was nice to know they were about if we needed them. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking to stay in a place both beautiful, and full of charm.

The house was gorgeous! Exactly what we expected, in the most perfect location. It is a farmhouse and has every farmhouse feature, love it! Jo and John made sure everything was ready for us on arrival and the hot tub was cleaned and ready for use within the first 24 hours. .

Elaine

Fantastic holiday cottage with bags of heritage on a working farm Jon & Jo Watson the perfect hosts. Its our fourth visit surely that says enough.

Stephen

We're going back again. So much character and charm that we cannot resist. John and Jo were excellent hosts and made us very welcome. Would highly recommend the onsite butchery as well.

The decor and layout and quality of the place was excellent but it had an overwhelming failing. The heating system did not work properly and as a result I had to leave after only 3 days because it was too cold to stay in

Michael

Disappointed there was dog hairs over the carpet in the room and we had to hover it on the first night because we had a nine month baby with us. Also disappointed that the hot tub was not ready for use on our first night. Fridge seemed very small for a house that sleeps six. The barbecue was small, and we had to clean it before we could use it.
