The proximity to local attractions and the ease of parking are frequently mentioned, alongside the enjoyment of local wildlife from the property.
The cottage receives high marks for cleanliness, with guests frequently noting it as clean and well-maintained. One isolated incident regarding a used razor does not significantly detract from the overall impression of an immaculate property.
The location is highly praised for its stunning views and convenience for exploring the South Lakes area. Proximity to local villages, parks, and dining options adds to the appeal, although one review mentioned a lack of outside areas for dogs.
Comfort is a strong point for this property, with guests finding the cottage cosy, well-equipped, and with excellent beds. The spaciousness and the views from the kitchen are particularly appreciated, contributing to a restful stay.
Facilities are generally very good, with the property described as well-equipped. However, a few minor issues such as slow internet and confusion over heating controls slightly affect the score. The presence of a wood burner and ample utensils are positives.
The owner's thoughtfulness is evident, with guests mentioning the provision of logs for the burner and a welcome bottle of wine. While these gestures are warmly received, it is noted that such personal touches may vary and are not guaranteed.

Joâs detailed information before we arrive gave us reassurance we had booked a professional cottage (bad experience last summer, different holiday company). The cottage is cosy and very comfy. We felt we had lots of space and we loved the view from the kitchen diner. Every single thing you could need was provided and some lovely biscuits and coffee too. Beds were lovely, bedding smelt so fresh! Fabulous location for lots of exploring. The Pheasant Inn is lovely, nice food and staff. Cartmel is a pleasant half hour walk away, lots of eateries there too. We would happily stay again
