Julie
Very comfortable. The only criticism is that the site it's on could do with more outside lighting as it was very dark round the cabin in the evening, we had to use our phone torches to get to the cabin when we had been walking all day as it was October it was going dark early.

The location is beautiful, with good walking from the site, including the beautiful woods up along the River Greta. A number of hilly walking routes are available from the site as well. The site was quiet (we visited in mid-September) and dog friendly. The river provides a calming soundtrack. The only slight downside was that, although wifi worked OK in the living room, we could not connect from the bedroom, although we were not too bothered as we were there to enjoy the Lakes rather than spend time online.
