Overall, it's a recommended base for exploring the Lake District.
Guests consistently describe the cottage as spotlessly clean and well-maintained, indicating high standards of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is appreciated for its beautiful views and quiet setting, though some guests find it a bit remote and challenging to access with larger vehicles. Its proximity to local attractions and walks is a plus.
The cottage is generally found to be comfortable, with comfy beds and underfloor heating mentioned. However, some guests noted issues with the height of kitchen shelves and the firmness of beds.
Facilities like the well-equipped kitchen and electric car charging points are praised, but there are comments about the need for additional amenities such as a towel dryer and insect killer. The non-functioning electric charger was a temporary issue that was addressed.

Access was a little tight if you have a large car but if your a confident driver it's not an issue. Would definitely stay here again!

It was incredibly clean and everything was there that we needed. The electric charger for the car wasn't working, but the owner came and explained he was trying to get it fixed and to use another one he'd got installed. Very friendly and helpful. It was quite tight getting the car down the very narrow lanes, but once we got used to it, it wasn't a problem. Lovely walks from the door, but also a good base for exploring the lakes. We had a lovely relaxing time. Thank you.

Cottage between Coniston and Windermere. Welcome pack with biscuits, tea/coffee sachets and sachets of milk. Thank you was welcomed after a long drive. Beautiful holiday cottage finished to a high standard. Warm, cosy cottage and comfy beds. Under floor heating. Electric Car charging point. Quiet location and easy access to points of interest. Ideal for Coniston and Ulverston for Laurel and Hardy Museum and local walks. Before arriving at the cottage, we recommend booking the Manor House local pub/restaurant as it gets busy.
