    This was an excellent cottage; warm; comfortable and convenient for the North Lakes. Good cycling from the front gate, an excellent welcome hamper with electric charging on site.

    Riverain offered us all that we required for a perfect holiday in a part of England that we love. We have had several holidays at Blencow and we are always impressed by the contents of the food hamper and the treats provided for our dog. Our family will certainly return and the younger ones hope to try out a Shepherds Hut next time.
