Fantastic place, fantastic value
I honestly worried that White Moss (on The Terrace, Windermere) would be too good to be true. We got a fantastic price for a midweek stay for 7 people, and found the place absolutely spotless. The hot tub was great, the kitchen, dining room and living space are all ideal, and the bedrooms are mostly quite spacious. The location is unparalleled, right next to Windermere station, so easy access to both trains and buses (including to nearby Bowness and Ambleside). The team were responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, White Moss was fantastically good value and we would be thrilled to stay there again, or to recommend it to others.

White Moss Cottage windermere
We had a wonderful time staying at The Terraces, Windermere. White Moss Cottage was perfect for us, it was more spacious than we expected and easily accommodated 8 adults and 3 young children. It was very comfortable and warm it also had everything that we needed, everyone really enjoyed the hot tub even in the rain! The cottage had parking for at least 6 cars but if you’re arriving by train the station is just around the corner next to the excellent supermarket Booths. You will also find the many excellent independent shops, pubs and restaurants just a short walk from the cottage. In summary the location was fantastic, with plenty of walks and activities nearby. We would highly recommend The Terraces to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday in Windermere.

Great house
Perfect accommodation for all our family, children and grandchildren. This house has everything you need and is in a great location for exploring the Lake District. My only gripe would be that the bed pillows were not comfortable, very flat, but this did not impact our enjoyment of the house and the area.

Fabulous Girls Weekend
Eleven of us had a great weekend . The house offers everything you need . Lovely and clean , very comfortable. The beds were so comfy , we all slept really well . Loved the AGA cooker , made great toast on it . We enjoyed the hot tub , lovely temperature, and plastic glasses included for drinks of fizz. The location is excellent , we got the bus from Booths supermarket to the lake and enjoyed a sail to Ambleside where we had coffee & cake . There is a great bar not far from the house , very quirky and great fun . Some of our party enjoyed the walk and views up Orrest Head . In fact , there was something for everyone at White Moss. We had an outside caterer and a beautician come . Also enjoyed games in the sitting room in the evenings , and the cinema room is fabulous. Such great value for money . Everything was perfect , from booking and the easy to follow instructions about arriving and leaving , to parking , and all the facilities on offer. Would certainly recommend to anyone . We loved it .

A lovely winter stay
The cottage was so homely, it was clean on arrival. Details before checking were great didn’t need to contact anyone for anything. Hot tub was checked in the mornings. Town with lovely pubs was just a short walk away and we managed a lovely walk up orrest head in the snow! Andy the owner was lovely and contacted us on regards to the snow which was highly appreciated! All in all would definitely recommend as a place to stay in any season! We will definitely be returning!

Great place to stay in Windermere
Had a really enjoyable stay. House was ideal for a party of 12 - a mix of adults and children (who loved the space in the house). Owners were friendly and helpful. Well positioned for the amenities in Windermere, the only slight negative was getting out onto the main road (particularly if you’re turning right!). Other than that, a great place to enjoy the Lakes.

About the host

Hosted by Andy and Barbara Cheetham

Host profile image
Andrew and Barbara Cheetham purchased White Moss in 2010 completing their collection of 5 properties on The Terrace in Windermere. This is the first time all of the properties have been under one ownership in their 170 year (plus) history.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the Terrace when we purchased Alice Howe in 2006. It wasn't long before we embarked on a journey to acquire all 5 houses on The Terrace. Our vision is to create a space where our guests can come together to create memories, we do everything we can to make that happen.

What makes this property unique

White Moss has a 7-seat hot tub in the rear courtyard and a 12-seat cinema in the cellar complete with 75 inch Smart Tv. Simply login into your Netflix or Prime accounts, break out the popcorn and go to the cinema in the comfort of your holiday home.
