"The cottage is an ideal place for a stay in the north Lakes."
It is cosy, well maintained and well equipped. Great off road parking to the rear of the property and well off the (quiet) road through the village. A short stroll to The Sun Inn which is excellent.

"The cottage is very clean, spacious and really good value for money."
The location is excellent and very convenient for visiting Penrith and the north of the Lake District. The welcome pack was a very nice gesture and much appreciated. Carole the hostess was at hand if we needed anything. Well worth a visit for someone who’s not a walking but need peace and tranquility.

"It was a lovely cottage with everything you could want in it."
Lovely welcome items to start the holiday. Carol was a very good host and kept us informed of things before we arrived. The Sun Inn pub literally five minutes walk has excellent quality food and reasonable prices. It was a good central location to travel north or south around the area. So much to see and do in The Lake District and we love it. We will definitely be returning.

"A lovely cottage, well maintained,good facilities, very comfortable."

"This is a very pleasant property, calm and tasteful."
Internet good, parking good, big bed very comfortable (a little firm as I like it), communication 1st class. I chose the location near Penrith so that I could access the Lakes, the North Pennines or the Eden Valley and that worked beautifully. Also there's a Booths supermarket a few minutes drive.

"We had a lovely stay in this cottage which is tucked away in a peaceful village."
It was very well equipped and comfortable. It was spacious and nicely furnished and decorated. We loved having off-road parking and the use of outside facilities including a shed and a covered washing line. The owner was extremely helpful and accommodating without being in the least bit intrusive. We especially appreciated the big jug of fresh yellow roses and a box of biscuits to go with the tea and coffee supplies which had been left for us. Thank you so much.

"Having stayed at this wonderful place two times already, we are delighted to leave more 5 star reviews again!"
We love this place and will happily quote "its just feels like home". The place is always spotless and the welcoming flowers, coffee, milk - even chocs! plus jams make the return to stay so lovely. A very quiet place, set in a lovely location with the Sun Inn Local pub a very short walk away. East access to the top of the Lakes or explore North and Western areas. Love it and we shall return AGAIN!

"A great property in a quiet village ideally placed for quick and easy travel to Penrith and beyond."
The cottage had everything we needed for our week away, including the useful household items you need but don't want to bring but are never sure will be there (iron, ironing board, hairdryers, towels, tea-towels etc) as well as a generous and well received welcome basket of goodies (tea, coffee, fruit, biscuits etc etc etc!) to get you settled in after your journey there. Would recommend without exception and will visit again if we get the chance - many thanks!!!

After an action-packed day, put your feet up and unwind with a cup of tea and a leisurely seat in front of the television in the sitting room, enveloped in the warmth of the glow from the electric fire.
Venture through to the kitchen/diner, traditionally decorated with farmhouse-style furnishings, housing all of the essential amenities required to cook up a storm, gathering your loved ones around the dining table that takes centre stage in the sociable space to serve your culinary delights.
