We love this cottage! The perfect location and so well equipped for a comfortable stay. Set in the heart of Grasmere with so many walks from the doorstep (we didn’t use the car all week) as well as numerous cafes/pubs and restaurants, all within a short stroll. Parking is a huge bonus too! We have stayed here numerous times and will be back again for sure.

Fabulous holiday cottage near shops but also ticked out of the way and nice and quiet. All amenities are in the cottage with the essentials being clean and tidy. Lovely welcome basket for us and our dog was a really lovely.surprose! Thankyou! The only thing I would recommend is to provide a clean oven, oven trays and frying pan. I didn't feel I could use most of them unfortunately. But overall a great place to stay and we would come back. Thanks.
