Welcome to North Lakes Cottages

Β 

At North Lakes Cottages, we believe holiday let management should be personal, professional, and stress-free. As a small family-run agency based in the Lake District, we work closely with property owners to maximise bookings, increase revenue, and ensure every guest enjoys an exceptional stay.

Unlike many larger agencies, we take the time to get to know both our owners and their properties. This allows us to provide a tailored service that delivers results while maintaining the highest standards of care and attention to detail.

Why Choose Us?

  • Competitive 10% commission + VAT
  • Personal, family-run service
  • Dedicated owner support
  • Guest communication and booking management
  • Professional housekeeping coordination
  • Dynamic pricing and occupancy management
  • Property inspections and quality control
  • Monthly owner statements and reporting
  • Local knowledge and hands-on management

Fully Managed Holiday Let Service

For owners looking for a completely hands-off experience, our fully managed service covers every aspect of running a successful holiday let. From handling enquiries and reservations to coordinating cleans, maintenance, guest support, and property checks, we take care of it all.

Our aim is simple: to protect your investment, maximise your income, and provide complete peace of mind.

Local Experts, Personal Service

Being based in Cumbria means we’re never far away when you need us. We understand the local market, know what guests are looking for, and have built a trusted network of cleaners, tradespeople, and suppliers to keep your property performing at its best.

Whether you’re new to holiday letting or looking for a more personal alternative to a larger agency, we’d love to hear from you.

North Lakes Cottages

Escape to cosy, beautifully presented accommodation near Ullswater. Carefully equipped for comfort and relaxation, our cottages offer the perfect retreat for scenic adventures, peaceful countryside walks and memorable Lake District getaways.

πŸ‘‹ Hi, I’m Adam, the owner of North Lakes Cottages.I founded North Lakes Cottages because I genuinely believed there was something missing in the holiday let industry!My journey actually began with my other business, Haus Of Clean. β€œHaus” is the German word for β€œhouse”, reflecting our commitment to caring for every home to the highest possible standard, which has specialised in cleaning holiday cottages since July 2023. Working behind the scenes in so many beautiful holiday homes has given me a unique insight into what owners and guests really need. During this time, I often felt that many owners weren’t receiving the level of communication, professionalism and care that they truly deserved.That made me ask myself one simple questionβ€¦πŸ’­ Why not offer the complete solution? So, North Lakes Cottages was made.My vision was to create a company that doesn’t just manage holiday homes, it cares for them as if they were our own. From professional cleaning, laundry and housekeeping to guest communication, marketing, pricing, maintenance coordination and owner support, I provide a complete end-to-end property management service.🏑 My goal is simple…To remove the stress of holiday letting.When you work with me, I’ll become your dedicated point of contact. I deal with guest enquiries, organise changeovers, coordinate contractors, resolve issues before they become problems and ensure your property is always presented to an exceptional standard.This allows you to enjoy the rewards of owning a holiday home without the day-to-day pressures that often come with it.⭐ I treat every property as if it were my own.Your holiday home isn’t just another property, it represents your investment, your hard work and your future.That’s why my focus is always on:βœ… Maximising your occupancyβœ… Increasing your revenueβœ… Delivering exceptional guest experiencesβœ… Protecting your investmentβœ… Maintaining five-star standardsπŸ‘· An extra level of expertise…Another advantage of working with North Lakes Cottages is the professional knowledge available behind the scenes.My father is an experienced Projects Director, specialising in property assets, NHS estates, commercial construction, civil engineering, lift construction and large-scale property lifecycle management.πŸ‘€ This means I have access to decades of professional expertise whenever it’s needed.Whether it’s property improvements, building maintenance, refurbishment advice, compliance or long-term asset planning, I can draw upon specialist knowledge to help owners make informed decisions and protect their investments.It’s another level of support that many holiday let management companies simply can’t offer.πŸ’· Transparent pricing. Exceptional value.My commission is a simple 10% + VAT.I believe owners should keep as much of their rental income as possible whilst still receiving an exceptional level of service!Many larger management companies charge 15–18% commission (or even more).My pricing is completely transparent, meaning more of your hard-earned income stays exactly where it belongs, with you. North Lakes Cottages has never been about managing hundreds of properties where owners become just another booking reference.Instead, I choose to provide a personal, responsive and professional service where every owner feels valued, every property receives the attention it deserves and every guest enjoys a memorable five-star stay.🀝 Why choose North Lakes Cottages?Because I genuinely care.I believe successful property management is built on five simple principles:🏑 Treat every property like it’s my own.πŸ’¬ Always communicate honestly and promptly.✨ Never compromise on presentation or cleanliness.πŸ“ˆ Continually look for ways to maximise your income.❀️ Build long-term relationships based on trust.Whether you’re just starting your holiday letting journey or looking for a fresh approach to managing your existing property, I’d love the opportunity to show you what makes North Lakes Cottages different. It’s something I’m incredibly passionate about, and I’m committed to providing every owner with the level of service I’d expect if it were my own property.I look forward to working with you and welcoming you to the North Lakes Cottages family. 🩡 ...
