• "Wonderful location and property."

  Perfect place to get some peace and quiet away from the normal stresses of life! Really thoughtful welcoming touches - tea, coffee, wine, biscuits, milk etc. Though we did not see the owners we knew that they were nearby if we needed them. The accommodation was very cosy, the reclining chair was extra comfy and the shower was perfect! No complaints at all would happily recommend to friends and family.

• "I absolutely loved my short stay at Nuthatch - thank you for providing such a lovely clean and comfortable place for my little dog and I to stay while I was working in nearby Carlisle."

  I was a fairly invisible guest due to work, but while I didn't get to see the hosts, they had clearly taken great care in making Nuthatch the perfect little place to stay. So peaceful, super clean, had everything I could have needed, and a million times better than being confined to a bedroom in a Carlisle hotel. I'm sure we'll be back next time I'm asked to work in the area, and hopefully I'll get to see more of the farm next time. Thank you again :)

  The place is very peaceful, but still we've managed to explore Lake District and visit the most interesting places like Honister Slate Mine, Keswick, Windermere, St Bees and Carlisle. It's a working farm, but we couldn't really hear any noise. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The bed is comfy and having a hot bath after long walks is a bonus

  Good Location to explore the lake district and north pennines. Very clean and very homely little place it has everything anybody would need although we like our own space and not to be bothered it would have been nice to have a conversation with the owner as we did have a few questions but we didn't see them at all. I would definitely recommend this place as a romantic get away with 2 big dogs.

  Located on the farm, which gives you a chance to see the milking of the cows. If you have a dog there are some very nice walks, the cottage is really cosy has a small patio and place to sit and you can let your dog free in that area. Under floor heating and fireplace makes it more cosy and warm. The owners are really nice , proactive and hospitable. They even arranged laundry for us. They left cookies ,bottle of wine and fruits in the cottage before we arrived. The cottage has supply of warm water all the time. Clean n big bath, dishwasher is available too . Its not far from penrith town center or carlisle town center , its in the perfect spot. If you love animals it will be an amazing experience to interact with them that close.

  Arriving to a bottle of wine, fresh fruit, chocolate cookies and milk was a fantastic touch after a 2 hour drive! The cottage was beautifully clean, warm and homely throughout our stay. And the owner(s) couldn’t do enough for us throughout, despite following COVID-19 measures. It was a brilliant experience to stay on a working dairy farm and such welcoming, pleasant farmers. It is a great base to drive to many fells, lakes and dog walks and there are 3 lovely walks around the farm. There are dog walks from the farm however we didn’t experience these due to the wet weather. After long, wet day’s walking our dogs it was great to dry off in front of a log burner, with heated floor and enjoying a ginormous bath! There are plenty of pubs nearby if you don’t mind driving but being tucked away in a little cottage, with a self-sufficient kitchen was all we needed. I will be recommending to me family and friends and will certainly come back soon! Such great value for money.

  We were not disturbed by any of the activities taking place on the farm. The location is ideal for visiting the Lake District, Pennines, Northumberland and even southern Scotland.

  wifi was very very limited. The owners did state on a welcome sheet that it was down to an issue with BT due to being too far from the exchange. Although the cottage was only for 2 people the fridge provide could have been bigger as you couldn't store much food and you ad to go to the shop more often. Where the cottage was situated, which was on a farm there was a lot of flies. There was fly spray provided but that wasn't enough to get rid of them. Maybe a fly zapper could be fitted? The cottage itself was situated in most quiet of places and so peaceful. I would consider going back as this was the main reason for picking it.
