Croft cottage is an excellent base for exploring the area. The cottage was exceptionally clean, comfortable and well equipped, with everything we needed. The location is peaceful, with lovely views, yet only a short drive into Kendal. We definitely intend returning and do not hesitate in recommending the cottage. Many thanks.
