Yewtree House Reviews

Pauline
Perfect family house that suited 14 of us aged 380. The hot tub was great and we had 2 fantastic sunny days to enjoy the outdoorroom chatting
Yew tree house was lovely we had a fabulous four days . Enjoyed the hot tub till the rain came once we got used to the cooker it was a lot easier an air fryer would help in cooking breakfast for ten The beds are so comfortable and the different areas for relaxing are good if someone wants quiet time We thoroughly enjoyed our stay Had a birthday lunch in The Pooley Bridge inn and that was excellent
The kitchen is far too small for 16 people. Trying to cook for 16 people with a hob 4 rings which kept going off not ideal. Living area not comfortable seating and did not seat 16 people. Hot water went off Sunday so no showers for some people. Delays in getting replies. Beds and pillows comfortable. Would not return
Alison
Perfect for a family holiday and would recommend. Games room is great fun and was used a lot. Hot tub lovely and nice setting. All bedrooms super comfy with nice modern bathrooms. Lounge and dining room perfect for large family time together. Location is brilliant as has a cute pub a few minutes walk away and then it's a few minutes drive to Pooley Bridge for lovely walks
It was well situated, in a quiet area, short walk to the pub. Comfortable beds, nice shower rooms. Plenty of parking at the property. Lovely decked area with screened off hot tub. Nice games room. Would certainly recommend to friends looking for somewhere to accommodate a large party. We were 14 people.
Denise
Beautiful house in a beautiful place! Highly recommend for a family gathering.
Loved the property and the stay was a fantastic experience with a group of friends.
Michael
We had an excellent longweekend celebration as a threegeneration family group. The house worked perfectly for us all, and everyone especially enjoyed the games room and hot tub. The house was spotlessly clean and well provided for in all respects, in a great location. We would definitely visit again in similar circumstances.
Nicola
Had a great weekend with the while family, great location. The house was lively and warm in arrival,the facilities were great and would definitely recommend and stay again
Melanie
We had a great stay at yewtree for a family birthday The facilities are amazing, we loved the hot tub. The house is very spacious there was 16 of us and it never felt cramped The games room is a great edition we had a lot of fun in there
Allison
We had a fabulous stay at Yewtree House with our family, the house is spacious and the facilities are perfect for a large group. Everyone commented about how comfortable the beds were and the bathrooms were perfect! The house is in a lovely quiet village, but close enough to main roads so you can explore the area. Would definitely recommend!
Michael
The house was huge, plenty of space, beds were out of this world. The area is super quiet through the day and night, an amazing place to relax and just get away from things.
Shonagh
We stayed at Yewtree House for a week to celebrate my birthday with my family who live opposite ends of the country. The house was fantastic, very well equipped and had everything we needed. We really loved the hot tub and games room. Location is great too, walkable to the local pub restaurant and at the back of the house a lovely walk all the way to Pooley Bridge 3 miles then took the bus back to Yewtree 1010 for everything, no issues at all, fabulous house
We had a lovely week spacious cottage, comfy beds a great location and we enjoyed the hot tub. The Queens Head is a great pub, good food and less than a 5 minute walk
Location was excellent and the property was well maintained and looked after. Really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return.
Christine
Great stay by all. Rooms are stunning and beds are so comfy. Chilling in the hot tub was much needed after the festivities. Would recommend this house
Graham
There were 16 of us aged between 6 and 67. Yewtree had everything we needed sleeping dining playing living.
Where do I begin? Let's just say we can't forget our time here and want to come back every year, again and again. It was absolutely AMAZING!!!
Claire
Excellent accommodation, clean and spacious with adequate parking. Prime location for exploring Lake District short drive to Penrith, Ullswater, Pooley Bridge, water sports and the beautiful Aira Force waterfall. Definitely recommend and would love to stay again!
