80th birthday family get together

all the family loved the house and it was the best and a good time was had by all. The location was perfect for Windermere shops and bars and Bowness was only a short drive or a 20 minute walk which suited us all. It was the best holiday house/cottage we have stayed at.

The perfect place for big groups

We had a lovely stay at Number One. The house is amazing - has everything you need for a big group stay. All the rooms are massive and beautifully decorated too. Especially appreciated the spare hooks on the walls meaning you could hang up any party decor without using blue tac

Terrific Terrace

Thirteen of us had a fantastic time here to celebrate Mum and Dad’s Diamond Wedding Anniversary. The house is amazing… so much space, beautifully decorated…. Lots of equipment. Everything we needed. The location couldn’t be better for Windermere. So close to Booths, the train station, Crafty Baa, great pubs, lovely walks. Also, the weather was kind to us. Thank you for having us. X

We absolutely loved our family holiday to No One The Terrace. The house was brilliant, plenty of room for us, children, grandchildren and dogs to chill out . Superb location, close to restaurants and shops and quick drive away to some lovely places to visit.. time went far too quick and everyone loved it. We definitely stay again.

Just perfect

We couldn’t have asked for a better place for stay for our reunion of friends. Comfortable, warm, clean, great location. Definitely a return visit will be in order. Congratulations to the owners who have put a lot of effort and thought into making Number One, The Terrace, a home from home.

Great location and house

We stayed at 1 The Terrace to host a hen do and it was the perfect house for a wholesome hen do for 14 people. The rooms were all a great size and this was matched by the living space too. The hot tub and the cinema room were a great bonus as well!

Blown away by this property!

We booked Number 1 The Terrace for our companies team building weekend and we were blown away by the property. The standard of decor blended with the original features made it one of the nicest places any of our staff had stayed in before. The layout of the rooms and furniture made it perfect for large groups. The sofa in the front room I think was the largest I've ever seen! The huge dining table made for a great dinner party in the evening. The hot tub and cinema room were also a big hit with our staff. The owners have done an amazing job with the property and you can see that much thought has gone into every little detail. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the property for any group or occasion.

Fantastic weekend away in a fabulous house

I stayed here in 2023 for my friends birthday and as soon as I got back I knew I wanted to go again this time with my partner and a group of couples. Got it booked again and it didn’t disappoint. As the organiser I was hoping my group would love the house just as much as me and it’s safe to say everyone did from the facilities to the location. I couldn’t recommend it enough and we will be back!

Fantastic House

A really comfortable, well equipped house, big but really cosy. We comfortably sat 12 for dinner, loved the very well equipped kitchen and even mastered the Aga. The enclosed garden was really safe for our dogs and very handy location for local walks or as a base to explore further. Owners responded really quickly to any questions. We would definitely book again.

Great House, great holiday

My family meet in Windermere every year and come in from all over the world. We usually stay at Boston House, but this year we had to try Number One. Even though some of the family had to cancel due to illness, everyone still had a wonderful time. They actually preferred Number One to Boston House (just) which I never thought I'd hear them say. Great house, great hosts and an amazing location. See you next year!

Cousins last minute trip

Stayed at the other end terrace house the first time with family and we loved it. Thrilled that we were offered a bargain rate for the last availability for Number One for a last minute cousins trip. Great location. It’s a perfect sized, well equipped home for large groups who want to do various daytime activities and then convene in the evening for dinner and chilling. Large, clean, spacious rooms. Beds were a bit too soft for me personally and the curtains were a little dusty. Other than these minor details, I can’t fault the place. Thank you for having us!

Family Birthday Gathering No1

No1 met all our expectations, it is a lovely house for a family celebration. The garden was safe for our family dog. The location is perfect for bus and train stations but if you wanted a quiet countryside location this is not the property for you as it is situated on a busy main road. We did however enjoy the outside space for dining. Would recommend to all.

A great house for a gathering

The house was really large and had everything we needed for a birthday weekend away. It was warm and comfortable, with easy parking, and with very easy access to Windermere and Orrest Head. The only negative was that the room 6 bed wasn’t as comfortable as the others. Unfortunately the immediate neighbours decided not to finish their hot tub partying until 5am which was far beyond our staying power, but we wouldn’t have noticed their nighttime noise had they moved indoors. All in all, a great house for a get-together.

Lovely Stay

The house is in a perfect location, a lovely walk into Windermere. The road can be loud as it is busy but didn’t bother us. The kitchen was perfectly stocked which is not always the case when renting a property. Beds were comfortable and we loved the cinema in the cellar. Only complaint was there wasn’t much ventilation in the loft bedrooms and we stayed on a hot weekend, the fire doors are incredibly heavy to prop open, that with the busy road with windows open made for a noisy night. Maybe having a fan available and a door stop would solve this. As side from this we had a lovely stay would highly recommend the house to friends and family and would happily stay again. Thank you :)
