There is a pull-out dining table available in the sociable space, where you can enjoy your lovingly prepared meals, cooked to perfection in the compact, but well-equipped kitchen resting to the rear. If you're lucky enough to experience the warmer weather, step out to the front enclosed lawned garden where you can enjoy a refreshing beverage and delight in those stunning country views surrounding, and even get some peace and quiet and escape into the pages of a captivating book. Stepping back indoors, climb the stairs to the first-floor where you'll find a king-size bedroom, alongside a family bathroom with an elegant bath and shower over, so you can enjoy a leisurely soak amongst the bubbles in the tub at the end of a tiring day, or a rejuvenating rinse in the morning, whilst the second-floor homes a twin bedroom.

All you could need for a relaxing break close to the lakes. Fabulous walks from the door and great for dips in the lake (if you like that sort of thing!) We will definitely visit again.
Patricia
It was great to be able to leave the car and do walks straight from the door. Beds comfortable and cottage very clean. There is a nice tearoom at Fairfield Mill a short stroll away and we enjoyed reading about the history of the old textile mill. Well placed for visiting the delightful town of Sedbergh, the Lakes and the Dales. Thank you for a relaxing holiday.
