Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the cleanliness of the cottage, describing it as spotless and well-maintained. The attention to detail in keeping the property clean is frequently commended.
The location is celebrated for its tranquillity and scenic views, with easy access to local villages and attractions. Some guests note the narrow access roads, typical of the Lake District, but this does not detract significantly from the overall positive feedback.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, particularly highlighting the cosy atmosphere and comfortable beds. There are a few mentions of an uncomfortable sofa, but this is a minor point in the context of otherwise glowing remarks about the property's comfort.
The cottage is well-equipped with high-quality facilities, including a well-stocked kitchen and entertainment options. There is a minor criticism regarding the sound quality of the TV, but overall, the facilities meet guests' needs effectively.
Many reviewers express gratitude for the thoughtful extras provided, such as fresh bread, milk, and flowers. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts, though common, are not guaranteed with every stay.
About this property

This then takes you through to the open plan living area which has a high vaulted ceiling with feature beams. There is a limestone fireplace which houses the gas woodburner-effect stove and a patio door out to the front of the cottage. One of the bedrooms is set on the ground floor and has an en-suite with bath and shower for convenience. The galleried landing then leads to the second bedroom and the family bathroom. Outside is a private patio area where you can enjoy breakfast in the summer months and the shared gardens. Note: This cottage is next door to Ref 952692, together they sleep 6.

It was a flawless experience from start to finish. There's truly nothing to criticise. Our hosts were incredibly friendly, offered helpful suggestions for local hiking spots, and made us feel completely welcome and at home throughout our stay.

Very tricky roads to and from its location. Walks not easy straight from the door. Good location quite central to most of south and west lakes. Lovely bedrooms very comfy beds. Could do with some larger tea cups!
