What a wonderful place! An absolute haven of tranquility! Hoppers Cottage is perfect in every way and once there, it’s tempting to remain at the cottage and not go anywhere just enjoy the peace and be at one with nature.

Superb cottage in the amazing location. If you want to be away from the hustle and bustle this is the place for you. Lovely accomodation well equipped. My only warning is the cottage is remote and the internet quite slow. If you want a break from social media you are made but, if you or your kids hang off it then you will have tears before bedtime. Basic streaming is not really possible. If you want to work while you are away and need quick broadband again you might be in trouble.Plenty of things to do in the area and you will not find a better positioned cottage. The views over Bewl Water is staggering.Great hosts in Lydia and James. Checked on us twice during the stay to make sure everything was ok. Completely enclosed garden so great for dogs and keeps them safely away from the nearby sheep and lambs.Lovely apple juice made by the hosts on their farm was waiting for us on arrival.Linen was great quality and beds very comfy.Would love to visit again one day.
