Philip C. Jun 21, 2025 02:00:18 AM
Summary: Lovely little cosy cottage, nice and quiet. Surrounded by trees and lovely views. Clean and tidy. A very small detail, but we could have done with a few more glassware. Only one small glass for drinking spirits or water.

Summary: We loved this property. It was perfect for us plus our small dog. The outside space was lovely with it's enclosed garden and small wood beside. Views over to Blencathra were stunning and offered us an ideal spot to just chill out especially after some walking in the hills.Difficult to tear yourself away but will definitely return.
