An excellent base for a family of four who want to experience this lovely part of the Lake District National Park, Sparrow Cottage offers stylish interiors throughout whilst being close to a range of outdoor activities. After parking in the off-road space, head inside to be welcomed by a fabulously furnished open-plan living space. Grab a seat on one of the plush sofas and switch on the Smart TV to watch your favourite show; why not throw some logs into the woodburning stove, too? Progress to the kitchen, a space enjoying sleek, white units with wooden worktops and a great array of appliances, such as a washer/dryer and slimline dishwasher. Once the budding chef of the family has whipped up a culinary delight here, tuck into it at the neighbouring dining table or take it out to the communal garden, where you can enjoy it as you watch the idyllic beck flow by. As the day winds to a close, climb the stairs to find two well-appointed bedrooms, a double and a bunk, as well as a fantastic bathroom, where soothing dips can be enjoyed in the spacious, corner bath and refreshing showers can be had in the glass enclosure.

    In the property there was everything we needed to make our holiday comfortable from washing machine with tumble dryer to lots of kitchen equipment. Interior is lovely and cosy with fireplace for colder evenings. Bathroom is very stylish and modern with bath and shower room. Double bedroom is equipped with double bed (mattress too soft for me but everyone has got different preferences), bedside cabinets with bedside lamps, wardrobe, drawers and mirror. Smaller room has bunk bed and drawers within the room. Near by is pub with delicious food and nice coffee shop if you fancy relax with the drink and cake. Plenty to do around from walking to Keswick or hiking Blencathra.We had a lovely stay and we would return again.
