    It was as thoroughly enjoyable as our last visit. It is a very cosy cottage and even though it is a old stone building, it was always nice and warm. Again, the cottage was well equipped with everything you would need and the decor was beautiful. The bed is extremely comfy with good firm pillows. It was a delight to bring my dog Bill back again and so pleased that our 6 month old puppy, Poppy got to experience such a wonderful accommodation and the Lake District for her first holiday! We hope to return again.

    Lovely little cottage, the perfect base for a couple that wanted to relax and get away from it all and also explore the lakes

  • Catherine

    Beautifully decorated and well equipped. Just the perfect size for 2 people and two Border Collies. Good location, close to lots of the tourist attractions but at the same time hid away in the peaceful countryside. Sadly only a short time after we came home one of our border collies, Nell passed away but my husband and I were just delighted that her last holiday was spent in your beautiful cottage and in the Lake District. We hope to return again very soon.
