A lovely cosy cottage in quiet location. Had a very well equipped kitchen and was clean throughout.

A lovely cosy cottage very warm and comfortable.

Rated by Mrs Jolliffe reviewed on 6th November 2014

What a great little cottage in a quiet peaceful location which is just what we were looking for after a very hectic few months at home. So relaxing and peaceful that we wished we had booked to stay longer . The welcoming gift of a cake and materials to make drinks was most appreciated. I think we will most certainly consider the cottage again next year sometime.

Beautiful cottage with a very warm welcome from the owners. Left us milk and a wonderful chocolate cake to get us started. View was spectacular.

It was made very relaxing by virtue of having well kept, clean accommodation.

A charming cottage with a very nice and helpful owner.

Rated by Mr Wright reviewed on 20th April 2014

This lovely little cottage was a real find in a small village. Location just off the M6, but far enough away not to be bothered by it. Allowed access to all areas of the Lake District, a wonderful location. The locals were very friendly, as were the owners who made us very welcome, nothing was to much trouble for them. We found that the BT hub didn't work but they were in communications with BT for a resolution. We also felt that having to leave at 10am, was a little early but otherwise no other complaints, a truly lovely little place. We would definitely visit again.

The cottage was lovely, cosy and warm. The log burner was a great feature. The owner has added some thoughtful touches. We had a wonderful week and will hopefully book again.

The cottage went above and beyond our expectations. A lovely village, and easy access to the lakes.

Rated by Mrs Lawton reviewed on 14th December 2013

What a delightful little cottage, with absolutely all the amenities one could wish for, plus a host and hostess who couldn't do enough for us. The welcome cake and drinks were the icing on the cake. Location was fantastic, with so many activities and attractions within minutes of the cottage. Even the trip up to Beatrix Potter's home was not a long drive. Very happy to recommend this place to anyone wanting a nice little bolt hole".

Good position from which to explore the southern and central Lakes to enjoy lots of walking.

Rated by Mrs Cable reviewed on 10th February 2013

We had a lovely week's stay in this cottage which was ideal for my wife and I. The cottage was ideally situated for the area around Windermere and nearby Kendal. Furthermore it was clean and tidy and in a quiet area of the village-would certainly recommend if you wanted to visit this part of the Lake Distrct
