We had a lovely week's stay at Broomriggs. Amazing views from the lounge window where we sat and had our meals. Great grounds for our four and six year olds to play in. Broomriggs is positioned well for visits to lots of places in the Lakes. If we return to this part of the Lake District again we will definitely look to stay here again.

An outstanding location. The apartment is spacious and well appointed with more than sufficient cutlery etc etc. The views from the window looking out over Estwaite are to die for.

A very comfortable and well equipped apartment in a stunning lakeside location. An ideal spot for visiting this part of the lakes both for walkers and car users. We can recommend the use of the local bus service that can be accessed in Hawkshead village to visit Ambleside, Coniston, Windermere, etc. We Can highly recommend Broomriggs 11 as a holidaRead morey base, from arrival to departure we felt at home and valued the information and input from the on-site manager Alec.

We've had two contrasting holidays at Broomriggs. The first was during the exceptional heatwave, the second was a very rainy week. Both weeks were enjoyable.

We really enjoyed staying at Broomriggs 11. The flat was comfortable and had everything we needed - even a stock of books - and the highlight was the view of the lake.
