"A beautiful cottage."
The kitchen is lovely and very well equipped. The garden was perfect for our dog, with the addition of the summerhouse and decking, with views over the river. A lovely, relaxing break with perfect weather!

"We loved this homely cottage which was very nicely furnished."
The garden was fantastic with a lovely outside seating area for 6, and a summer house where we sat and enjoyed a coffee. We could also access the river path straight from the garden. The location is great with the pubs, shops and cafes in Appleby just a few minutes walk away. Beds were comfy and there was ample bedroom storage. The ensuite is quite small but it's manageable.
Great kitchen equipment if you want to cook. The only problem we found was the pull out table for eating inside:- we can see why this is a challenge spacewise and the owners have provided a pull out 4 seater table but we struggled to work out where to put it, and seating all 5 of us was not possible easily. Having said that, we would still recommend this property.

"Cottage lovely and very clean."
Garden great size. Could have been doing with a mat at the back door, we put the dog's towel down! An extra set of keys would've been handy. Other reviews mention the cottage is on a main road and that isn't clear from the photos. It was an issue for one of our party in a front room as noisy from early morning ( back room was quiet) Great access to village
with shops pubs etc. Nice little places to walk with exhibits in the park by the school which were fun. A short walk up the hill to Appleby castle, we went on the train to Settle with lovely scenery. Would recommend the cottage if not a light sleeper and using all the rooms, and would return to Appleby.

"Firstly I would like to say a big thank you to the owners for letting us stay in their gorgeous cottage."
Cleanliness great.
Lounge comfy and cosy. Kitchen bright and absolutely everything you would need. Bedrooms small but perfectly adequate. Only 2 of us so can only comment on back bedroom king size bed. Lovey pillows, duvet, and mattress fairly soft. Great for us. Showers quite small but lovely and clean.
Just a point out to the owners ( not a complaint) on suite shower room has a little mould appearing in the corners of the ceiling.
Garden absolutely perfect for our little dog and the summerhouse well what a beautiful place to sit.
Appleby itself is beautiful by river and some great walks but not a great deal in the town.
Fish and chips good. No really lovely restaurants.
Parking no problem on side of road.
Great roads over to Ullswater and Keswick.
Recommend the train ride to Settle beautiful scenery.
Would I stay in cottage again a definite yes.
Thank you for your choosing to stay at our cottage and for the positive and informative review. We appreciate all feedback - both positive and negative.
We will certainly deal with the small mould in the corner of the shower ceiling.
We try our best to make the cottage a "home from home" and as comfortable as possible, so you don't have to worry about your accommodation and can just concentrate on enjoying your holiday.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and appreciated all that the cottage and local area has to offer.
We would, of course, love to welcome you back to the cottage for a holiday in future.

"This is a very comfortable & extremely well equipped home in the heart of Appleby."

"The cottage is very well equipped and tastefully decorated."
Alot of thought has obviously gone into what you might need. There is everything there you could possibly want including garden furniture. A small welcome pack would have been nice. The bedrooms are smaller than appear on website but totally adequate. The lounge is very dark but cosy. The only thing that would stop me from going to Eden cottage again is the fact it's on a very busy noisy road. This makes sleeping in the front bedroom difficult for the traffic noise. The final photo on the website is deceiving makes it look like the cottage is set back from the road.

"A nice house at the edge of the village with a lovely aspect at the back."
There is quite a bit of road noise at the front of the house but as the weather was glorious we spent most of our time out back. We only used one of the front bedrooms which my son slept in, and he wasn’t as impacted from the traffic noise.
The rear aspect down to the river is gorgeous, but the grass was really long, which was a shame, as it made our fluffy dog extra wet particularly with all the heavy dew, and also meant we couldn’t go out in the evening to the village using the bottom gate as our feet got totally soaked in flip flops
( we’d have mowed the lawn if the mower was there)
Overall a nice place to stay and the town itself was lovely.

Beautiful kitchen stocked with every kitchen utensil you could think of .Large secure garden leading down to a

It was very comfortable with more than enough space for us. The log fire was a perfect addition to the chilly evenings. We would definitely recommend Wdwn Corrage

Lounge, some of bulbs had gone and need replacing on arrival, housekeeping need to check. Room was quite dark but comfortable.

"Excellent, very well appointed period and character property."
High quality fixtures and fittings. Spotlessly clean. Luxury kitchen was amazing and so well equipped. We loved the little summer house and rabbits in the garden. Unfortunately the weather was atrocious most of the time and so we spent minimal time in the gorgeous garden. Just one observation, the grass was very long all during our stay but this could have been because of the constant rain even before we arrived. Would have looked much nicer with a trimmed lawn if this could have been arranged before we checked in. Very responsive host, we needed a clothes airer due to bad weather and this was sorted out very promptly and was much appreciated thank you. A welcome pack would have been a lovely touch as it was quite an expensive break and we've had this elsewhere when staying just for a long weekend. All in all a brilliant place to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday.

"Fantastic cottage ,very clean ,modern kitchen with every kitchen utensil and appliance available, unfortunately there was no table to eat a meal,small individual fold away tables were available in lounge but we missed sitting around a table eating our meals ."
The kitchen was large enough to accommodate a table and chairs ,also a standard lamp or more lighting on the beams in main room would be great as reading was very difficult.
Thank you for your feedback and useful suggetsions. We are really pleased you enjoyed your stay.
Regarding your comments about the need for a dining table, we understand and agree, and consequently have now bought a dining table & chairs for the cottage.
We have also bought an additional lamp for the lounge to provide additional illumination for reading.

"Beautiful cottage and garden, mix of old and modern, comfortable beds, warm and welcoming."
A little unfortunate that after making use of all the kitchen facilities, to produce a 'culinary delight', we were disappointed to find the only place to eat inside, was sat on the settee with our meals on small, folding tables. A shuffle around of furnishings in either the living room or kitchen might afford sufficient space for a drop leaf dining table and at least a couple of chairs.
All in all we had an enjoyable stay in beautiful surroundings.
Thank you for your review and the constructive comments regarding the need for a dining table..
