There is a small desk area, ideal for studying, reading or planning the day's events at, with a bookcase holding a selection of books and board games for those quieter evenings.

    True home from home. The welcome pack was very thoughtful and much appreciated. Lovely quality bed linen, comfy beds, kitchenware and all round gorgeous cottage. Thank you

    The Cottage is so comfortable and tastefully furnished and decorated to a high standard. The beds can be described in comparison to the TV ad, where they say 'a good nights sleep is Guaranteed'. Sooo Comfortable. We were treated to a welcome pack including tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge, so very thoughtful. The location is great for exploring the south part of the Lake District with Cartmel only a short drive away, and easy reach for a trip to Bowness on Windermere, Kendal and Ulverston. Grange over Sands is even closer with lovely views over to Morecombe Bay. Unfortunately the weather was not great with only one really nice day but what a treat it was sitting out on the patio in the late afternoon sunshine where I dozed off listening to the beautiful song of the Blackbird, and the gentle coo of the Wood Pigeon, the chattering of the Finches and then awaking to the gentle ra-ta-ta-tap of the Woodpecker in the distance. The friendly local store is two minutes walk away and is very well stocked and the Engine Inn is well worth a visit. Jenny's Cottage has got everything you could ask for, a great location and well worth a look.

    It was spotless as well as being very comfortable and in a quiet location, just what we were looking for. When we arrived, Emily had left a welcome pack with a selection of teas, coffee & biscuits plus there's some very nice toiletries provided. If we're looking to book another trip to the Lake District we would love to return to this property.
