• "This property is in a great location with stunning views."

  Milk etc available from the owners, farm shop 5 minutes drive down the road with a great cafe and a pub 5 minutes walk away. The bedrooms and bathrooms were good sizes with good showers and plenty of hot water when 7 of us were getting ready for a wedding. The underfloor heating is very welcome if a little hot at times. Utility room was great with a spacious kitchen/dining room as well as the second living area upstairs which was a big hit with our granddaughter. Unfortunately we were unable to stay the week due to last minute heart surgery for one of our party however we wouldn’t hesitate to come back. One little problem of sticking up gripper on the stair but I’m sure the owners have dealt with this by now.

  Beautifully kept and immaculate throughout, this house is the perfect base to explore the surrounding Lake District attractions. The beds are very comfortable and great showers. While secluded, you can be in Keswick in 10 minutes by car. We had a wonderful stay and would love to return: highly recommended.

• "Perfect holiday home!"

  We have had the most relaxing week at Sherriff. The house was perfect for our multi-generational family. Ground floor for the grandparents with every home comfort imaginable. Upstairs, another self-contained flat that the younger ones enjoyed. Perfect location for Keswick, Glenridding and Pooley Bridge. Excellent walking in every direction. We had mixed weather but it didn’t spoil our fantastic week in the Lakes. We will be back and highly recommend this lovely property.

• "Great house, great views, loads of room."

  It was a four bedroom house, but one twin room was oddly locked. The house is close to the A66, so sitting outside is quite noisy if you want to have quiet drink, inside the noise is minimal. An EV charge point would be a great addition, even a 3kW socket.

• "After holidaying in The Lake District through Lakelovers over a number of years we have seldom stayed in a cottage that exceeded our expectations until our recent stay in Sherriff."

  We honestly could find no fault with any aspect of the premises. The cottage has a unique design which we found catered for our specific needs. Val, the home owner was friendly, very helpful and ensured that we were well looked after. The amenities and general cleanliness was exceptional. Sherriff is an ideal cottage for anyone wishing to tour the Northern Lakes and as a result we are looking forward to returning.

  Great layout in property. Ideal having a separate bathroom for each bedroom and an upstairs lounge where the rugby could be enjoyed by some of us. Access to property provided was very straightforward. Friendly though not intrusive owners.

• "An outstanding stay in this lovely house in the great location to explore this part of the Lake District."

  The under floor heating is just the best thing after a cold day waking in the fells. The house is so big you never feel on top of each other, which is nice if you need some alone time staring at the incredible views from the upstairs windows. The house was very clean and I’ve never seen such organised and well stocked kitchen cupboards. Even the cutlery was lined up in the drawers! We had a great weekend in this part of the world in an amazing house.

  We were made very welcome by the property owner. For the owner's benefit only - and not to be published on the website - the kitchen bin lid is broken and it is difficult to lift the lid. We also found the microwave and oven to be slow. Otherwise, the house is fabulous and we would love to return.

  The house was spotlessly clean, spacious, well equipped (including comfortable beds and good showers!) and although it is just off the main road we didn’t find that a problem at all.

• "Overall a nice cottage, clean and plenty of room for 5 people."

  We had a great week and had plenty of opportunity to explore the local area. Really nice to be so close to Blencathra! Short drive to both Keswick and Penrith for grocery shopping. As a group we are all keen cooks and was slightly disappointed with the kitchen equipment, in particular the lack of chopping boards and a fairly average oven. I think a small amount of outlay could make the experience for those who prefer to cook for themselves much better. Also just to note it is quite close to a main road, which wasn’t overall that disturbing, but when particularly quiet was noticeable.
