A truly excellent cottage in a great location in Borrowdale. The cottage is roomy and well equipped with loads of personal touches from the owners from an excellent welcome pack through to cartoons in the loo. Even in the worst weather it was comfortable and welcoming.

This property is in a beautiful quiet location with fantastic views up the lush Borrowdale valley. The house was spotless and beautifully furnished with excellent facilities. The large outside patio was a joy looking across fields of ewes and lambs up towards Castle Crag. The location is also really excellent for a wide variety of walks over low orRead more high fells. Certainly a cottage to return to. Hide

We have stayed in the Lake District for many years and this cottage was exceptional in every way. The location, views, comfort, quality of fixtures and fittings, equipment, space and attention to detail were all outstanding. It is ideally situated with many walks from the door and we didn't need to get in the car all week. There is a fantastic sensRead moree of peace, calm and tranquility. The owners have clearly developed the cottage with thought and pride. Very highly recommended. Hide

Our family stayed in this beautiful home for 4 nights at the beginning of May and wish we could have stayed longer. We can't praise this home enough. It is truly a home from home in a beautiful location. The home has been beautifully renovated and decorated. Choice of walks on door step, up hills or round lakes. Honister Slate Mine is a 10 minute dRead morerive away. The family loved it, but not for the faint hearted. Lovely Keswick is a 15 minute drive away. Will be back. Hide
