About Wood House Buttermere

The main-house guest rooms do not have televisions and the property currently does not accept pets. Children under 16 are not accommodated in the main house, although children are welcome in the cottage. Check current booking terms and room details before reserving.

Walks can be started directly from the property, making this a strong choice for visitors who want to leave the car behind during their stay.

The Cumbria Guru verdict

Our local note

A distinctive, peaceful stay for visitors who want lake views and direct access to the Buttermere Valley rather than a conventional hotel experience.
