    Great cottage, great location. Parking arrangement very useful and handy to have spaces opposite for loading and unloading. Very clean and comfortable. Generous Welcome pack and well-appointed kitchen. You can stand in the doorway and smell the gingerbread being baked! Mathilde's cafe and many other excellent places to eat all in easy walking distance. Great steep and more challenging walks easily accessible from the cottage. Useful utility/boot room for washing and drying just across the little courtyard. Also good to have a bit of outside space to sit/eat in. We love Poppy's cottage and will definitely book again.

    On entering the property we immediately knew we had made the right choice. This cottage has a real WOW factor, it is cosy, immaculate and the attention to detail from the quality furniture to the soft furnishings really is on point. This was further enhanced with the very generous welcome package of Fresh Bread, Milk, Butter, Biscuits and Chocolate. This really is a superb property in a prime location and is literally a second’s walk from the local pubs, shops and restaurants and I couldn’t recommend more highly. We have learnt that this property is part of a small group and we are now looking to visit all of them starting with their Prospect Studio in Ambleside in a few weeks from now. This is purely based on the quality and attention to detail we experienced at Poppy’s Cottage. This certainty will not be our last visit to Poppy’s Cottage and the only downside was having to leave. Thank you to the owners and to all those involved in making our stay so comfortable, enjoyable and memorable…. Simply put ‘Outstanding ‘
