Bank Ground Farm

Jonathon and his staff are incredibly warm hosts who make sure your stay at this bucolic cottage is filled with charm and delight. Bank Ground Farm is a top notch establishment and dreamy getaway for those wandering in the Lake District.

Stopped for tea and coffee. Great view (on a sunny day). Friendly staff. Delicious sweet treats (self serve).Be prepared to fight off wasps if eating outside.

Fantastic location. Excellent rooms, many with lake views. Fabulous food and friendly staff. If you are looking for a good base to explore the lakes, forget busy Windermere this is somewhere to really consider.

Jonathan and his team are amazing. This was our 3rd stay at Bank Ground Farm and we will certainly be returning again! The views are fantastic over Coniston waters and the kayak and paddle board hire is brilliant. The rooms are spot on and facilities are just perfect. Food on the farm is to die for! Would highly recommend a stay here. 5 star location. 5 star service and 5 star food

Beautiful place and outstanding setting. The service was excellent a lovely cheery lady looked after us so well. Jonathan was very understanding with our Kate arrival for dinner after a 3 hour diversion for the M6 closure. Nothing too much trouble. The room was spotless and the bedsswere so comfortable. Home from home. We hope to come back for a longer stay.

Spent some fantastic days here during Easter with three generations. Amazing views, superb rooms, great food and lovely hosts. We will be back soon!

Amazing place, views are beautiful, lovely staff, nothing is too much trouble. Room was lovely and comfortable with a great shower.

We stayed in Beckfoot Cottage for a week and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful building, outstanding views of the lake and mountains and welcoming people. We hired a boat and got out on the water easily after a good safety brief....it was so lovely and I highly recommend it if you are looking for a restorative activity!The internet was strong enough to enable me to stream a movie on the rainy day we had, and we watched it in front of a roaring fire. We did some local hill walking, easily reaching the start points. The 'out'-laws popped by to enjoy a family cream tea feast at Bank Ground Farm's 'Swallows and Amazons' Tea rooms. Such a lovely location to stay for a special week of water, nature and rest.

Stayed in The Loft, a very well-appointed self-catering apartment adjoining the main farmhouse. Owners and all staff were fantastic and vibrant, making our stay very enjoyable indeed. Restaurant fare and atmosphere first class. This is a 'top venue' for wonderful Coniston and we'll definitely be back!

My 20 year old daughter and I had a wonderful couple of days here. The staff were so welcoming and helpful - we were car-free and were planning to walk into Coniston for supper on our first night but they looked at the weather and laid us out a delicious ploughman’s so we didn’t have to brave the torrential rain. We felt so comfortable, well fed and well looked after, it’s a splendid spot. We walked, we swam, we got out on the lake - and watching the original Swallows and Amazons film in the comfy sitting room with the lake behind us was just the icing on the cake!Thankyou
