Black shop, ripping off customers. It's a farm, and it smells like cow dung. In the deep, deep, deep, deep village, there is no front desk at night, the houses are crumbling, and the facilities are so poor that it is impossible to take a shower. The bed was so small that the quilt kept falling off. The room is worse than the elders’ home in the countryside when I was a child! It can only be seen by taking pictures. Breakfast ingredients are okay. The rental price was mentioned three times, which is ridiculous. You can go for three to five hundred, but over a thousand is a bit of a lie.

Gorgeous location, stunning views, excellent breakfast, friendly staff. Tired decor and dated en- suites let it down somewhat.

Stunning views of the lake, and so lovely to be able to wander down to the lakeside so easily. We loved our stay here, the room was cosy and instantly felt like home, the breakfasts were lovely, and it was a real treat to have so much home grown produce. Thank you so much for our stay!

The cosy, comfy cottages have everything you need with exceptional views over the lake and hills. We really enjoyed the delicious BBQ food and breakfast provided by the farm. Jonathan and his team were so friendly and helpful. We had an amazing stay as there are so many walks and interesting things to do in the area. A quick dip in Lake Coniston followed by a sauna was a highlight.

This was the most perfect stay we have ever been on! John and Rob, and the entire catering team, were so kind and considerate. They were so welcoming and supported us with any request. They went above and beyond to ensure we had the best stay; from the kayaks, to the constant tea to the hearty breakfasts. We are without a shadow of a doubt returning here, as it was the best stay. Thank you for everything!!

Very poor booking experience via AirBnB. Sadly have to report an attempt by the owner to adjust the advertised price after acceptance leading to cancellation. Total waste of time and unnecessary stress of having to seek return of initial down payment. Avoid.

Our stay at Bank Ground Farm was an absolute dream!! We loved the little cottage and the views and access to Coniston Water, and the friendly fluffy sheep. It seemed like a fairytale the whole time we were there. They also offered breakfast each morning which helped set us up for a lovely day enjoying the Lake District. There’s so much history in this beautiful farmhouse as it is the place where Arthur Ransome wrote Swallows and Amazons! We hope to return here someday soon :)

We only visited here for lunch. Views were the main draw. Sandwiches were expensive and poor value, bread did not taste fresh and salad tasted unwashed. Coffees and hot chocolates were tasteless. A real disappointment for such a pretty view.
