As new owners Cumbrian Cottage Holidays have been a wealth of information for us. From advice on running and furnishing the cottage to being available 7 days a week when we have had queries. Our cottage is cleaned and managed in a stress free way and we can use it ourselves when ever it’s available.A great service from a great small team of people. Highly recommended!

We chose Cumbrian Cottage Holidays to list Anley Cottage because, when we met David, we immediately felt the personal touch of a family-run business. It stood out to us as a warmer, more genuine alternative to the larger corporate holiday letting companies.The process of listing Anley Cottage was incredibly straightforward, with excellent guidance from both David and Gail. We also have a fantastic regular cleaner, Rikki, who does an amazing job maintaining high standards for our guests.We’ve had consistent bookings throughout the year and even into next, which has been very encouraging. Gail is always extremely responsive to emails and phone calls — a level of communication that’s both reassuring and appreciated.We’re very happy to have Anley Cottage listed with Cumbrian Cottage Holidays and highly recommend them to other owners looking for a supportive and professional platform.

I have a house in Carlisle, which I love very much, I had it because my children were in the UK. They have unfortunately left the UK now, but I fell in love with the house and didn’t want to sell it.I’ve been looking for a way to keep it and thinking of Airbnb or similar and it just seemed really complicated.I saw an advert on a website for Cumbrian Cottage Holidays and contacted Gail and David and made a meeting with them.It was so easy, they took everything off my hands, which was amazing, and they have been dealing with all the bookings, cleaning and any maintenance there was. It’s been really well looked after and rented out now for 3 or 4 months. I am very happy about it, I couldn’t thank them enough and think they have done a fantastic job.

Ever since our first contact with Cumbrian Cottage Holidays we were confident that they were professional and efficient and really knew their business. Changing from our previous agents due to lack of service and inability to speak to anyone or get a response to emails, a fully managed arrangement with Cumbrian Cottage Holidays has been great.We have really appreciated their advice as we did have an issue with a burst pipe and Gail was very helpful and supportive. To be able to contact Gail whenever we have needed too has been so refreshing and any query is answered very quickly the same day.I would not hesitate to recommend the company they have been excellent.

Having owned holiday cottages for over 30 years we have witnessed the growth of to many giant faceless companies to the detriment of guests and owners alike.The truly independent ‘Cumbrian Cottage Holidays’ is like a breath of fresh air to the industry.No queuing for hours on annoying calls, no frustrating menu systems and no totally unhelpful ‘chat bots’ that serve nobody.Moving holiday letting agents is always a big step – but we have honestly never looked back.David, Julia, Gail and the rest of the team are always on hand to help both guests and owners alike. Their depth of experience is second to none.Really could not rate highly enough.Bookings are up and blood pressure is down!

This is my first time owning a lodge and using it as a holiday let and Cumbrian Cottage Holidays have been excellent in advising how to make the lodge comfortable and welcoming for guests. They have a wealth of knowledge and experience and made the process very easy for me which has been especially important with me not being locally based. They have done a fantastic good job in managing the lodge which is always impeccably clean and welcoming, ready for the next guests to arrive and enjoy.

David and Gail offer both a professional but personable service. They have a vast wealth of knowledge in the tourism industry and know what’s best for your property including pricing structures and advertising.

I have been letting my house in the Lake District out for over 20 years and have used various agencies to help with bookings and maintenance of the house. I switched agencies last year from one of the national agencies to Cumbrian Cottage Holidays and I have found their service far superior in every way. The agency is local and independently owned, the owners have decades of experience in the holiday let industry and have a fantastic team and this has proved invaluable. I would highly recommend CCH.

I think Cumbrian Cottage Holidays has been fantastic. Gail and David are very knowledgeable and friendly. They’ve always been helpful and supportive, giving advice and quick to answer queries. I would whole heartedly recommend them to other owners.
