• "This was our second stay and we have already booked for next spring The facilities are much above average compared to other cottages we have used."

  Nothing if left to chance with everything provided (even a functioning laundry) How the owner Chris and Mark got everything into a relatively small bungalow without compromising comfort is beyond amazing. Lots of nice touches and spotlessly clean. This is a nice but relatively unknown area but with decent shops and cafes and a number of interesting places to see. History buffs can enjoy Bowness on Solway and Burgh by Sands where Romans built forts and started a Wall! And an ancient English king died and laid in state in a surviving church. Who knew that and how cool is it. Lake District and Carlisle, which also has a great history, are both within relatively short drives Go but leave a few spare weeks for me!

  All that sea air and comfy bed made for an excellent night sleep. The little treats were delicious, lexie our 4 legged friend enjoyed hers too and communication with Chris was great. I would absolutely recommend staying here.

• "We had a fabulous stay at Solway View."

  It really is very comfortable and cosy with fantastic views of the sea! It has absolutely everything you could possibly need while on holiday and we all loved it, including the dog (he especially liked the back yard where there is a sun trap!). The walk along the promenade to Silloth is great and there are plenty of eateries to choose from and if you want to go further afield, no-where is too far away. We’ll definitely be back! Ps the homemade shortbread and marmalade left as a treat were delicious! Thank you!

Beautiful location to enjoy both the coast and the lakes of Cumbria. A thoughtful owner who had supplied not only some basics but lovely treats. We highly recommend this property.

• "Hi Chris & Mark, what can I say, your home was beautiful."

  So comfy clean and so well equipped with everything you need, even down to salt & pepper, etc. What a beautiful welcome gift too. The whole home was set up with amazing quality equipment, furnishings and beds, bedding in fact everything. The icing on the cake is that beautiful view over the Sollway of Criffel. I took loads of photos. The scene changes by the minute. Do not be afraid to book this home. Silloth and surround ing towns are lovely. You are also on the edge of then Lake District. I love Silloth as we come over several times a year to stay with friends but thought we would give them a rest from us. I sincerely hope I can visit again. It is the best.

  It has been beautifully renovated and thoughtfully prepared for visitors. The location is lovely and despite awful weather we thoroughly enjoyed everything the area had to offer. Silloth has a calm, old-fashioned charm and we really liked walks there for coffee. The views from the property are wonderful, and there are good walks direct from the door - handy for dog walking . Would definitely recommend a stay here.

• "Truly excellent- This bungalow is beautifully decorated, maintained and equipped and very clean."

  The views from the front of the house across the Solway are superb. The owners were helpful without being instructive. Highly recommended The unexpected joy was the area around Silloth and the village itself. It has the faded glory of many older British seaside resorts but undoubted charm. There is also a lot of local history to explore from Hadrians Wall , old Ww2 airfields and the the site of the death ( I know morbid!) of King Edward 1 Suffice to say we have rebooked the house for Spring next year

• "Solway View was a beautiful exceptional bungalow, well equipped, comfortable, lovely patio and views out across the Solway Firth."

  Not only was it a home from home, there were even dog treats and dog towels. However, Silloth was not what we had expected, we had been before a number of years ago and remember it as a busy thriving town. But, as we discovered on our first walk into town, there was nowhere to have an evening meal as dogs were not allowed in any of the hotels or cafes. The town was lacking in any amenities at all and a real disappointment to us. The best part of the town was Silloth Green and the walk into town from the bungalow was lovely for us and our little dog.

  Very homely, every thing is spotlessly clean, decor is wonderful, very comfortable sofa and beds. I can not praise this holiday let enough. There was no need for me to have taken any cleaning products. Left for us was a welcome pack of marmalade, biscuits, crisps and fresh milk and treats for our Labrador Molly, thank you for the use if dog towels and poo bags. There is nothing I can give a black mark about. Back yard is enclosed and safe for animals and children with table and chairs, lovely potted plants. Although there is a road routside, the double glazed window did their job. View from the front window is ideal to watch beautiful sun sets. Try out Fairydust Emporium, great food, great prices, warm and friendly staff, venue is beautiful and different to other cafés and dogs are welcomed.

  Great communication from the beginning. Beautiful, clean cottage with some really lovely, unexpected extra touches, such as some delicious homemade easter biscuits and Easter eggs for the kids. Everything there for a cup of tea/coffee when you arrive. Felt at home as soon as we walked through the door. Stunning view of the water right outside the windows. Its a dog friendly cottage and I was a bit apprehensive about there being signs of dogs having been there, such as dog hair and/or it smelling of dogs, but there was no sign or smell. Just a very clean, tidy, beautiful cottage. Loved the photos that are there to show the work that's been put into it. It's a fantastic cottage. Will definitely be sharing this little gem with everyone and will definitely be booking again.

  All the comforts of home are there and every detail attended to . It is situated in Skinburness close to Silloth. The position is just outstanding for dog walkers who like the sea. The surrounding area is so very interesting both historically and geographically. Fifteen minutes by car gets you to Bowness on Solway in one direction and Allonby in the other, check out the history and architecture and the Ice cream shop , not forgetting the cheese place and Freshly caught fish and potted shrimp in Silloth. After 5 days there we returned home restored and relaxed due to the peace and the pace of life. Hoping to visit again

  It is in a quiet location looking onto the Solway. It is a great base to explore the lake district and surrounding areas. Both we and our furbaby enjoyed a long walk everyday along the grassy front, which was also ideal for our dog to have a good run around and as it is on a quiet road it is extremely safe. We would 100% recommend this property to anyone looking to have a break in this area. We would not hesitate to book this cottage next time we are looking for a break away from it all.
