Really lovely accommodation and situated in a quiet rural setting. Ideally located for visiting Lake District towns and attractions. Perfect for 2 couples as both rooms had en-suites. We have suggested a few tweaks that we feel would enhance the property but would thoroughly recommend it and will more than likely return.

The location of the cottage was stunning, beautiful views across fields & the bay. It was spotlessly clean & holiday company was very responsive. The cottage is 1.5 miles from Cartmel. If you walk via the road it takes 25/30 mins. We preferred the cross country route (start at public footpath opp driveway) which takes you across fields, down a tracRead morek and to back of the racecourse (approx 40/45 mins).

Lovely well presented house. Home from home, loved our weeks stay there. Would be more helpful if Holiday cottages showed the exact location before booking as located down a single track road, which could be a problem for some.

The cottage is lovely, Spacious and comfortable with stunning views and sunsets. Good location for exploring but nice and quiet as away from the road ( a car is needed). We were incredibly lucky with the weather but if raining, the wifi is poor, therefore if you have children take some games!

TBH.....I feel a little put off about booking another cottage with you. We have had another occasion last year at another property that we booked woth you. I guess im annoyed that you charge extra for dog's which I don't mind paying , but when the property isn't cleaned properly in the first place it's quite annoying.
