  We really enjoyed our stay at Mousehole Cottage.

  In a beautiful and tranquil, rural location, it's close to amenities while still enabling the feeling of getting away from it all. We received a warm welcome, and felt every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from milk in the fridge to spare dog bowls and poop bags, dishwasher tablets to plenty of reading matter. The property was beautifully clean and we really appreciate use of the agility course too - our 12 year old dog needed to let off some steam in the cooler evenings! The poultry onsite definitely added an extra layer of personality to the stay and it's lovely to see them ambling around and occasionally coming to say hello. The locals are all friendly too, from the local shop to the pub, we felt very at home. Would definitely book again, we highly recommend!

  Had a very peaceful Christmas in a gem of a cottage which was clean, very warm, comfortable and in the ideal rural setting.

  The peace and quiet was greatly appreciated, the travel instructions were spot on and the on site parking a great advantage. The village shop in Armathwaite is superbly well stocked and the staff friendly and helpful. The countryside surrounding the cottage offers much to explore - woodland, riverside walks and many interesting villages, not forgetting the historic and beautiful Settle to Carlisle railway. A lot to investigate further for a future visit. Thanks to Nick and family and the others on site that we met for the friendly welcome and for making our Christmas break so memorable. Hope to meet with you all again. Kind regards, John, Susan and Lyndsay Stanton, Felton, Northumberland.

  Mousehole cottage was just perfect for us and our 2 dogs.

  It was very well equipped with everything you need. It was clean, beds were comfy, generous amount of towels and the garden is completely secure for the dogs, good fencing all the way around. An added bonus is a securely fenced paddock so you can let your dogs run- this is sheep country so the opportunities to let your dogs off when you are out for the day are limited, having the paddock was just brilliant. The location is great , very quiet but only a mile from the village with 2 pubs and a shop and easy access to A6 and M6 making it very central for exploring this area. Owner was very friendly and lives on site but left you to it. We would recommend this cottage and we would go back again.

  The cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed including washing powder for the machine.

  Milk, tea,coffee, biscuits were waiting for us so no immediate dash to the shops. Tissues, toiletries etc. were a welcome addition along with information on the area and a good store of books. Our furry friend was also well catered for with the first truly dog proof garden I have come across since using Sykes cottages. There was also an enclosed exercise field plus walks across the owners fields. We used the day boarding kennels whilst we had a day in Carlisle and Maisie who hadn't been in kennels before loved it. Everyone in the village was very friendly and both pubs were dog friendly. A brilliant base for the lakes, Northumberland and even Scotland.

  From the first phone call to the owner to the day we left, this was the perfect stay in a magnificent cottage.

  On first sight, the cottage seems small, but it is so perfectly thought out and so incredibly well equipped that it seems to grow in size the longer you stay in it. Everything was pristine, and the upstairs was exceptionally light and airy. It is in lovely surroundings and is tucked away in its own secure garden which made it perfect for us and our dogs. Armathwaite is a nice village with two dog friendly pubs and some good walks. Penrith is only 15 minutes away and has all the supermarkets, petrol stations, etc. you would need. Would we go back again? Definitely. I would recommend this cottage to anyone.
