Another wonderful stay at Manesty! It feels like we are back home every time we stay! The perfect location for us with stunning views from the front of the cottage! A lovely secure garden for our 2 dogs. The new tv was a bonus this year! The bedding and towels were lovely, everything was clean and the furniture and beds very comfortable. We will be back again next year! We absolutely love this place!

We stayed at Manesty for two weeks in June so we could enjoy walking in the Lake District. Both the property and location didn't disappoint us. Manesty was nice and clean and very well equipped. Our hosts Clare & Steve were very welcoming and ensured that if we needed anything they were at hand. The description on the Cottages website was as accurate as it could be. The rooms were a good size, and the view from the lounge was something else. A great place to stay and can recommend it.
