Spacious, comfortable cottage
Great place to stay as long as you don't mind being a bit out of the way. Lovely spacious accommodation and the added bonus of red squirrels in the garden. We ate out occasionally but mostly self-catered - Sainsbury's delivered food, so that wasn't a problem. And we could walk up Blencathra from the cottage. Keswick provided SUPs, bikes and shops and the Honister 'Climb the Mines' experience was good for a rainy day activity.

Great stay!
Wonderful location, the enclosed garden with play equipment was great for pre-schoolers. Really enjoyed the walks straight from the house.

Great stay
What a wonderful location, in the midst of sheep, at the foot of Blencathra and everything we needed within a 15 minute drive. Plenty of walking opportunities in Lake District nearby. House is comfortable, well equipped kitchen, living room with great views and a TV room for the boys upstairs
