Second visit to Cobble Rigg, views of Blencathra at the back and Threlkeld Fell at front are gorgeous, Red Squirrels visited the garden, first time seen them here. Cafe and pub in village excellent, plenty of walks from the door for all abilities. half hourly bus to Keswick or Penrith. Property is clean, comfortable, well equipped. It would may be benefit from some new carpets in downstairs rooms. We love this house and will be back next year., thank you.

Lovely stay. Location excellent. No local shop, but the Community Hall and the Horse and Farrier are both a short walk away.

Excellent shower some parts of the property a little bit tired but overall good value for money. The back road up to the property a little bit precarious, but otherwise would stay again
