We loved our stay here. The cottage was immaculate and we really appreciated the welcome pack! The cottage was cosy and we were warmly welcomed even though we arrived fairly late.

We stayed there for 3 nights and could have stayed longer! House was very clean and we were provided with a beautiful welcome pack including ground coffee and biscuits! The owners are very approachable and friendly and were on hand if anything was needed; both generous and kind hearted. Made my reunion with my brothers very special. PS check out the down stairs shower- spacious and excellent pressure. Thanks Lelsey and Robert

We stayed at the cottage with our two dogs and the hosts provided a goody basket for them which was a lovely touch. Really good value for money and located far enough from the town that it’s peaceful but close enough that it’s very easy to pop to the shops. Would definitely recommend

Robert and Leslie are wonderful hosts, who have done an amazing job with this cottage. One of the nicest places we have every stayed. We found it was ideal for visiting the Lake District and highly recommend it!
