Harriet’s Hideaway is one of the six Pine Vale cottages in Seldom Seen, converted from a former water driven saw mill, dating back to the 1700’s. Situated at the foot of the beautiful Seldom Seen ravine, right next to the mountain stream Coombe Beck, in the village of Thornthwaite, this terraced holiday cottage lies just three miles west of Keswick, a truly idyllic location with views across to Skiddaw in one direction and the beginning of the Helvellyn range in the other . The area is great for both walking and cycling and lies on the lower slopes of Whinlatter, with many forest trails and mountain bike tracks. There is a gallery and tea room 100 yards from the cottage (open throughout the year apart from January) and a shop, pubs and restaurants are one mile away in the village of Braithwaite. The vibrant market town of Keswick has a wealth of amenities, a total contrast to the peace and tranquillity at Harriet’s Hideaway.

We had a wonderful time at Harriet's Hideaway.
We had a wonderful time at Harriet's Hideaway. The house is lovely and was spotlessly clean. The beds were super comfortable and the area so quiet. We did 3 walks from the house, up Grisedale Peak, Whinlatter and Barf and they were stunning. The house is close enough to Keswick to do a shop but it feels so remote and wonderful once you're there. Will definitely be back again! Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

A lovely little property, clean and tidy with a new bath room.
A lovely little property, clean and tidy with a new bath room. Comfy beds with high quality linens. The only draw back is the lack of proper out door space as car is parked in front of the property. However, if you can get over this, you can sit on the bench outside and watch the red squirrels in the tree of the garden opposite. Great for access to the forest husband loved the mountain biking available. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

This was a little Gem of a place .
This was a little Gem of a place . It’s location is perfect for accessing all of the lakes . I was impressed with the BT sports and Movie access as this does not come as standard with most self catering holidays . I have seen some of the negative reviews but can report the bathroom is refurbished and no issues with damp or smells so this is resolved . The cottage is set in a very quiet residential area on the edge of Whinlatter forest of which there is direct access from behind the property or just up the road . The lull of the nearby stream was a delight to us and you may even catch sight of a red squirrel crossing the car park . There are a wealth of leaflets and maps within the property that give you ideas of where to go and what to do . The double bed was comfortable and the cottage tastefully furnished with a good stock of cooking implements that make catering easier. It has two large sofas perfect for putting your feet up after a hard days walking . We loved staying here and will definitely be back .

Needs- A sign to say where kitchen light pull is! Oven shelves fixed/corrected as they fell down when used. More shelves in kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom. Information on purple recycling bags. A towel rail in bathroom. New hook on bedroom door as it fell straight off when touched. Blinds in the kitchen as no privacy at front. More drinking glasses in kitchen as only 4 there. Toilet roll holder moved as in difficult to reach place. Bedroom bins replaced as look battered/old. Different mats in kitchen as they are slippery on floor. Note to say DVD’s in cupboard. Shower head to come out further from wall as bath base is curved so can’t stand close enough to shower.
