  • "We had a fantastic holiday, the cottage was perfect, very clean and comfortable with everything that we needed for our stay."

    We slept well, our bed was comfortable, the room was nice and dark with the blinds closed at night and the cottage was in a lovely quiet location. The location is breathtakingly beautiful, and we were lucky enough to have good weather all week to enjoy it, would definitely stay here again. Also I left my house keys behind after leaving the cottage, only realising when we had been travelling home for over an hour. They were posted back to me by the owner and amazingly I received them the very next day, truly above and beyond, thankyou so much!

  • "Fantastic location."

    The cottage was clean and comfortable . It has been thoughtfully refurbished with modern facilities, whilst retaining it's character. The owner lives nearby and would have been available if we had encountered any difficulties. We couldn't have asked for more.

    So pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your feedback, much appreciated Property Owner

  • "Its a great property in a great location."

    The place was comfortable, well equipped and nicely decorated. The covered porch (where you could take off and hang coats and boots) and the outdoor seating were great, and the hallway for hanging up stuff and storing all the extras was spacious and worthy of a mention. Furnishings were very tasteful and the kitchen implements and devices were good. Heating and hot water and clothes washing facilities were all excellent.

    Thank you for your lovely review. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay Property Owner

About the location

NETHER WASDALE

Gosforth 3.9 miles; Santon Bridge 2.3 miles

Nether Wasdale is a small village situated to the west of Wastwater, the deepest lake in Great Britain. The village is well-served with two pubs, one with its own brewery, a farm shop and café selling local produce and ice cream. This area is the birthplace of climbing and is a superb base for climbing, hiking and all outdoor pursuits. Unlike many lakes, motorised boats are forbidden on Wastwater though canoeing and kayaking are perfect for these unspoilt and tranquil waters which add to the peace and serenity of this stunning part of the Lake District National Park. Wastwater is sided by The Screes and at the head of the lake the fells of Great Gable and Scafell Pike can be reached, popular with hikers and climbers alike. The view from the summit of Great Gable is said to be the finest view in Britain. At Wasdale Head is the church of St. Olaf, one of the smallest churches in England, dating back to 1550 and its beams are said to have come from Viking long boats. Close by are the villages of Santon Bridge and Gosforth.
