"Lovely cottage that was less than a 10 min drive to Penrith and Pooley Bridge."
Very quiet and peaceful surroundings and a perfect place to rest after a day in the Lake District.
My children loved the horse in the field next to rear garden and the cows/sheep in field opposite the property.

"Clean and extremely comfortable, loved the space!"
Beautifully warm without having to faff with heating like so many holiday lets ( Only drawback to this was there was no alternative to the thick duvets which got too hot, but this is not specific just to this cottage) Friendly and approachable owner, and ideally situated for exploring either the Lake District or the North
Pennines and the beautiful Eden Valley.

"This is a brilliant place close enough to Penrith, the train station, Ullswater, the pennines and hadrians wall but still feels like you are in the middle of nowhere."
There is a caravan park next door so you could be lucky enough to catch the ice cream van. It's a working farm so there are lots of animals around and even a horse (dj) outside the garden... So bring carrots. It holds 6 people comfortably but just be aware that there is only one toilet/bathroom so mornings will need to be well planned. The owners were wonderful and made us feel really welcome.

"We spent couple of days at the farm cottage."
We really liked the warm welcome, the fact that we felt like home. We will recommend this place. Our 2 year old granddaughter loved to see the horse and the cows. Very family orientated. We used the cottage to explore the Lake District (by car).

"Woodhead Farm cottage is in a fantastic rural location just outside of Penrith."
The cottage is very spacious and comfortable and is in a great spot to visit the lakes. Julie is an absolutely amazing host; ensuring we had everything we needed and even taking our daughter out to the fields to introduce her to the sheep. We couldn’t have asked for more.

"The accommodation was spacious and warm."
However the tv did not have subtitles and as one of our party was deaf did cause a problem. It did spoil her evenings. Also a full size ironing board and proper iron should be provided as a washing machine was.

"We had a fantastic experience at Woodhead Farm Cottage!"
The cottage was immaculately clean upon arrival, lovely and warm, and nice and spacious for 6 people. There was plenty tableware and cookware, and lots of storage space in the kitchen and bedrooms.
We really didn't have many complaints - the only slight problems were that the fridge is quite small for 6 people, and the shared bathroom was also a little difficult. The gas fire in the living room created a lovely atmosphere, but made some strange noises when it was windy!
Julie dropped in to say hi and was really friendly and helpful. She let us know about local walks and attractions and how to get there, and showed some of our group the animals on her working farm. Although the cottage is attached to the family home, we really didn't notice that there were other people nearby as it felt really private and peaceful.
I would definitely recommend Woodhead Farm Cottage to other groups or a family.
