The property is in a great location with the back looking directly onto the lake. The ferry across the lake is perfectly located right outside the front. It was well equipped with everything we needed. There is work going on next to the building but that didnât cause too much noise. It made a great base after lots of walking. Wray castle is well worth a visit, as is Aira Force waterfalls. Weâve left a few walks in the folder for the next users but there are loads of walks in the area. Helvellyn also worth the effort! Only slight criticism for the property was no hand soap which I thought would be pretty standard. We bought some and have gifted it to the next visitors!

Lovely place but could have done with some extra seating ( weather wasnât very good ) and a shaving mirror over the sink would have been helpful
