Fantastic few days break. Great location. Was able to walk The Old Man of Conison from here. Jonathon was an excellent host. Jonathon organised kayaking and wetsuits for us, making our time on the lake special. Food was amazing, cooked from fresh and homemade cakes were divine! The staff were all friendly. We were certainly made to feel welcome, and felt so relaxed during our stay. We stayed in the log cabin, views were outstanding, beds were very comfortable, we all slept great. I will miss waking up to that view. This cabin had everything what we needed and providing us with fresh coffee, milk was a bonus. I would definately recommend Bank Ground Farm.

My 2nd visit in 6 months and what a fantastic couple of days I had. Greeted by Jonathan who somehow manages to find time to offer a personal service whilst running a very busy, well organised farm as well. Had a lovely double en suite room and the breakfasts and evening platters were amazing. I plan to revisit in September, this time taking my grown up children. Huge thank you also to the excellent staff - Hester, Darren, Rob & Catherine. You helped to make me feel home from home. Many thanks, Glen.

On the bank of Lake Coniston this was perfect in every way. Our party of 12 stayed in the Barn, which was spacious and luxurious with fantastic views from every window. We were there at lambing time which was a delightful bonus. We found a range of walks to do for every ability, including The Old Man of Coniston for the younger, fitter members of the group. Others took a half hour stroll into Coniston village. We brought easy meals to cater for ourselves, but could have chosen to have a catered meal provided on the farm. Jonathan, the farmer/host, was lovely. He had helped me in every way to keep the birthday surprise a secret. We didn't see much of him during our stay as he was so busy on the farm, but he took time to welcome us soon after we arrived. Some of our group are planning to go back to Bank Ground Farm to stay in a smaller cottage. It was that good!

We rented several of the self-catering cottages for a family of 24 (aged between 2 - 90 years old). The cottages were all next to each other and the larger barn was big enough to allow us all to eat and socialise together. The cottage kitchens were fully equipped which made cooking very easy. The rooms were beautifully made up with several sleeping options for singles, couples and families and included extra duvets, pillows and blankets. The views from every angle of the cottages were spectacular and the walk to Conisten Lake took only a minute. It was wonderful to be able to look around the farm with the hosts themselves and some cuddles with newly born lambs brought a smile to everyone's faces. This is a truly magical place so whether you want to paddleboard, hike or just read a book, come rain or shine, you will come away feeling spellbound.

The current owners have kept the Swallows and Amazons themed bed and breakfast in authentic condition. The food and coffee was top notch and quite good value. Staff were attentive and friendly. Just watch out for the low beams. A worthwhile visit, especially who has read the books.

The Farm is located down some narrow lanes by lake Coniston. The location is beautiful with views across to the Old Man of Coniston and access down to the Lake. The farm is full of character but with modern features like EV charging, wi-fi and en suite facilities.

Absolutely outstanding stay at the Bank Ground . We were here over the new year period . The location is stunning just overlooking the Coniston Lake and The Old Man of Coniston right up front ! Most of us didn’t bother getting out since the location was so brilliant 😊 The property itself was beautifully maintained . Rustic yet modern ! Jonathon and his team were very efficient and responsive. One of the families that stayed with us has already decided to make this their summer holiday destination too . Highly recommend and thanks to the Bank Ground Team .

What a place! Gorgeous accommodation with incredibly comfortable beds. The hospitality was first class and the food was fab. The team could not do enough for us, in fact, they did not stop the whole time we were there, massively grateful for all you did.

Before I even start with my review, I will remark how great of a host is Jonathon. He truly care about the guests and was always very warm with us during our stay. For one of the days, we rent kayaks for a couple of hours, however our trip to the Bank Ground Farm was affected by traffic so we were not able to make it on time for the kayaks. Jonathon was great on let us rebook the rentals for the next day and we were able to enjoy the beautiful Coniston Lake. We have been looking for a no stress/full relax/true vacations and this was the place; the place is remote enough to provide this feeling. The Bank Ground Farm is also the place where the historic Swallows and Amazons area (where the movie was inspired). I will definitely come back to the Bank Ground Farm and discover more places around Lake District. If you really want to experience the Lake District area combined with a relaxing time, this is the place.
