"We had a fabulous time in this beautiful cottage, a real family home which was so cosy and had all the facilities you would need."
The gardens were lovely and well maintained with a hot tub which was so relaxing and had beautiful views to look at whilst you relaxed. We had fun evenings on the wii, and a great choice of film on sky. Fuel for the wood burner was plentiful. We lived the cottage so much we booked again for March 2025 whilst we were there. Thanks to Dawn for the lovely welcome and hamper.

"This is a lovely house with a superb garden."
We were a party of 7 , 4 adults and 3 boys ( ages 11,12 and 13) plus a small dog. The property was ideal , very well equipped, easy parking for 3 cars. The boys loved the very large enclosed garden with a stream and hot tub, plenty of room to run and play with the dog ( who also enjoyed it ) . Woody's cafe and gift shop 5mins walk away and nice local walks close by without taking the car. Irton Pike just up the road is worth the uphill walk for the views. The Bower House pub serves good food and has a small kids football pitch at the back. We made one trip to Whitehaven for supermarket shopping and Cumberland sausage from the butchers. Our other great outings were Hardknott Pass ( fabulous scenery) , the Lal' Ratty steam train to Ravenglass ( well worth the money ) and the boys loved Muncaster Castle with archery and the birds of prey. Fell Foot and it's garden made the holiday perfect .Despite it being Storm Lillian week the daytime weather was fine enough to enjoy everything. If you return to Dalegarth on the train we would highly recommend The Boot pub in Boot about a quarter of a mile from Dalegarth Station. The roads are narrow , be prepared to give way or reverse occasionally. Many thanks to Dawn the Housekeeper who was very helpful when going out on separate trips we accidentally locked ourselves out. The boys and adults were so happy with the week we wished it had been longer.

"The property and gardens were amazing the views spectacular."
If I were to recommend anything at all it would be more comfortable mattress in the king sized room and proper 3 foot 6 single beds in the other rooms. It's not always small children who require a single bed.
This said it would truly take some beating. Provided the best r+r withing easy reach of bars, plenty of walking both gentle and more challenging. Would deffinatly book again.

"What a find."
The most beautiful of locations, the most beautiful cottage and excellent facilities. A small stream running through the garden, bridges, a covered gorgeous Hot Tub with breathtaking views and the cottage couldn’t feel more ‘Lake District’. Dawn was VERY helpful and the cleanliness, instructions and welcome gifts were lovely. Thank you for a very wonderful holiday, we shall be back.

The owners had left us a lovely welcome package and the cottage had everything that we needed. Can't imagine a better way to finish a day of strenuous walking than sitting in a hot tub and looking out at the snow-capped fells!

"A lovely Cumbrian stone cottage, which has been sympathetically extended."
The cottage has all the facilities we could have wished for, including a hot tub at the top of the garden. In summary a lovely quiet location. Santon Bridge is a small village however there is a good pub, and several good tea shops/ cafes. Eskdale Green and Wasdale are very close, lovely unspoilt villages, with more places to eat and drink, and the idyllic Wastwater lake.

"Fantastic garden, views and facilities, wii for the kids when needed, range of books games, fully furnished property, great sized laundry/boot room for dogs, hanging outerwear, storing boots etc."
Bedrooms were comfortable and really clean as were the bathrooms, with an abundance of towels
I think it’s fair to say the decor is a little dated, but our interaction with the owners and the prep for our stay along with the overall comfort levels more than made up for this. Most of the days are spent outside and it was a great place to return to after rafting, walking etc and is perfectly positioned for the great pub, just down the road. Fully recommend staying here, for the space in the house, views, facilities provided by owner, the great garden and overall comfort

Fab location , walks from the cottage , Ravenglass railway 10 minutes away , and less than a 40 minute drive will take you to Wastwater , Whitehaven and St Bees.

From bread and butter, to waterproof maps. And of course tea and cake! Amazing. Dawn, the housekeeper, was so helpful and on hand at any moment. Beautiful views from the hot tub and garden, there is a cattle grid at the front of the property, which, somehow, our dog managed to get across, but only once, we think he didn’t like the experience first time. We loved to play the games which were on the bookshelf, with all the pieces still in their boxes! Oven gloves and tea towels, plastic rubbish bags and kitchen roll were all available for us, in the kitchen.

"Our holiday was perfect, from the accommodation right up to the areas to visit whilst there."
Photos just doesn't give the house justice. Very clean, very roomy, very well equipped, we all absolutely loved it, especially at night when my 18 year old son would play the X Box (as he's not keen on hot tubs). Really nice views from the huge, lovely quirky garden and when relaxing in the hot tub which was used more or less every day. Would love to visit again especially as a gate will be fitted to the entrance of the drive way. I would highly recommend.

Unfortunately the alpaca farm which was next door has closed so the write up needs updating. The cottage had everything we needed for a multi generational family to stay. It was a warm and welcoming house. The only slight negative were the very small single beds which were pretty uncomfortable. The garden was fantastic and we used both the upper and lower terraces and the family made good use of the hot tub. We would definitely visit again.
