"Excellent cant fault it at all."
One of the best properties we have stayed in. Comfy cottage with the best kitchen. Great shower and loads of space. Hosts were lovely and location exceptional. 10 minutes drive to lovely lake, hill or coastal walks. Can't wait to return.

"A beautifully presented holiday cottage ideally placed for exploring the Solway coast and northern Lakes."
Fiona and Rick were the perfect hosts and the extras of homemade jam and cake added to their warm welcome. They also provided good storage for our bicycles. Each day we looked forward to returning to the cosy comforts of Bramblewood and enjoying the delights of a wonderful rural retreat. We’re already planning a return visit.

"A comfortable and well-appointed cottage in idyllic surroundings."
It was a joy to have the hens and sheep around the place. The location is very convenient for the Solway Firth coast and northern lakes, with mostly quiet local roads. The owners made us very welcome, providing a delicious homemade cake and fresh eggs on arrival, and we left feeling as if we had been staying with friends.

"Bramblewood Cottage is a beautiful property, with a well-equipped bright, and airy open plan kitchen-diner on the ground floor and a comfortable sitting room, bedroom, and bathroom on the first floor."
The sizable bathroom has a powerful shower and separate bath and the bed is incredibly comfortable. We loved the friendly resident chickens that trot around the property. Our hosts, Ricky and Fiona, who live next door were very friendly and helpful and we had some very thoughtful treats in the kitchen on arrival. We are very grateful for their hospitality, we felt very at home and would love to stay again in the future. It was one of the best properties we ever stayed at and we would highly recommend it. It is a great base, a convenient driving distance to Keswick, Grasmere, and Buttermere.

"We had a lovely time here."
The cottage was spotless and very comfortable - the owners have thought of everything you could need and they're very welcoming and friendly and on hand if you need anything. The welcome gifts - eggs, milk, cake, tea/coffee were a lovely touch We loved the fact that it was in a quiet area but there's lots of places to visit nearby. This part of the lakes is quieter than the main areas but very picturesque with lots to do. We enjoyed Maryport, Keswick, Silloth, Carlisle and Whitehaven. We'll definitely return as there's so much more that we want to see and do. The friendly sheep and hens made our stay! Thank you. Jeanette and Ian

"Bramblewood Cottage is a perfect place for a peaceful, relaxing holiday."
It is an extremely comfortable cottage. It is well equipped and immaculately clean. Parking right next to the door, an amazing kitchen with a dishwasher and a washing machine and a lovely little garden with wonderful views, where you can sit and watch the chickens with a cuppa!
The hosts are very friendly and the welcome pack of jam, milk, eggs and cake was very much appreciated.
It is a little off the beaten track and not in the main touristy areas, which suited us down to the ground but Windermere, Ambleside etc are all easily accessible in less than an hour.
A perfect place to stay and definitely recommended.
