Lovely old stone cottage in a peaceful location but in need of some TLC. Spacious and nicely furnished. Modern kitchen, well equipped. Modern bathroom with effective towel radiator though the shower pressure is just average. Comfy beds and bedding, and good storage space for clothes. Lots of hooks and a hall cupboard for coats. The stairs are not steep and the steps are shallow. As the cottage is located at the end of a quiet single track road, you can walk straight out into the beautiful countryside. It’s also in a designated dark sky area of The Lakes, so you can see the Milky Way on a clear night! From the dining table you can watch the sunrise and mists fading through the large ground floor window. Breathtaking. We found Lowther to be a quiet out of town retreat for the northern Lakes and had a happy and very restful holiday. But the heating wasn’t on when we arrived at 4pm and the house was cold. And no extra duvets/blankets available for cold nights. It took us a couple of days to adjust as the cottage doesn’t easily retain the heat, in spite of the extra electric fire in the lounge and portable radiator. Luckily we always take fleece blankets with us so we didn’t have to ask for any. The owner and family live on site and were very friendly so I’m sure they’d have helped if we had.Some improvement suggestions: Spare blankets/duvets available. Fit a rubber trim to the glass shower screen to stop the lovely bathroom flooding. Replace the damaged lampshades. Tidy the curtains so they hang neatly and put one in front of the kitchen/front door. Arrange for recycling facilities. (Don’t let this put you off, we’d still recommend Lowther)Please note - The directions to Lowther are for approaching from Penrith/M6, not up through the southern lakes as we did. ##### Diane ### 10/10 Excellent #### kevin s.

We had a great stay at the cottage despite some awful weather. The location is great if you like a bit of isolation … we certainly enjoyed the walks off the doorstep; six Wainwrights bagged during our stay and we didn't have to move the car on most of the days we were there. The cottage has lots of original charm and quirkiness and the views of Great Mell Fell and Little Mell Fell are excellent. Unfortunately there is no washing machine in the cottage which was a bit of a pain given the rainy weather. The surrounding area is lovely - the Cocklakes farm shop is only 10-15 mins in the car and well worth a visit for fresh meat, veg, local beers and deli items.

View was amazing from the courtyard. Perfect place to go! View was amazing from the courtyard. House was clean and tidy, they have everything you need in the kitchen to prepare food. Telly worked well, I would suggest bringing you own DVD's and board games too. For dog walkers... If you leave the property and turn right follow the road and you can walk for as long as you wish if you need to stretch the dogs legs or a quick wee wees. I would recommend downloading Alltrails before going so you can where you can walk from the property.

The cottage was beautifully situated for many stunning walks in this part of the Lake District. It is spacious and well equipped however it does state in the ad it has a washing machine which it does not and being a family of four for a week, we really needed one. The huge downside to this property are the beds, they are incredibly uncomfortable and the pillows are way past their best. It wouldn't cost the earth to replace these given how much you pay for the property per week. When you spend the day walking for sometimes 7 hours, a good nights sleep is welcomed!
