Welcome to the Lakes

For over 30 years, Wheelwrights has looked after holidaymakers across the Lake District, and we’d love to look after you too. Whether you’re after a long walking holiday, a quiet countryside escape or a family get-together, our hand-picked self-catering cottages give you a comfortable home base in the heart of the fells.

Our cottages sit in some of the region’s most loved spots – from the lively villages of Ambleside and Grasmere to the peaceful corners of Little Langdale and Hawkshead. Each one is a genuine home from home, with welcoming living spaces, well-equipped kitchens and everything you need to settle in and explore.

Step out of the door and you’re moments from lakeside walks, mountain trails and some of England’s finest scenery; perfect for hiking, cycling and a proper breath of fresh air.

Have a question about your booking or your stay? Phone us on 015394 37635 and you’ll speak to Denise, Helen, Pip or Julie, all with years of local knowledge.

Our office is open Monday to Thursday 9:30am–4:30pm, Friday and Saturday 9:30am–5pm and closed on Sundays. Further details can be found on our contact us or FAQs page.
