Loverly cottage in an amazing location. Clean and spacious with comfy beds. Kitchen was adequate but not the best equipped of kitchens.

A great cottage, closely situated to Hawkshead. When the weather is nice, the outdoor furniture is perfect for al fresco dining and drinks. When it isnt, the cottage is cosy and warming. A lovely stay.

Big house, comfortable bedrooms, well-equipped kitchen. Bring your toilet rolls and soap as they don't leave enough for more than 3 days stays.

Very well equipped kitchen. Beds comfortable and bedrooms good size. The electric storage heaters were a bit of a mystery, but warmed the place quickly when needed. We turned them off at the mains when not wanted. A shame the weather was poor whilst we were there, the terraces looked lovely. Lots of space for a large group. Highly recommended.

A cosy cottage with everything you need for a peaceful week away in the Lake District! We really liked the proximity of the cottage to Hawkshead, to be able to walk in and have dinner or see the sights.

A lovely cottage this being our 3rd visit. Lovely walk into Hawkeshead, only 15 mins away. Great base to be able to visit all the lakes. Weather wasn't with us this time but still a spacious cottage and a nice holiday was had.
