Fantastic Location - Perfect for the Lake District
Property- fantastic. Many walks to forests/gardens/fells right from the property- Ferry to towns a 10 min walk. Grounds were charming- the kitchen is incredibly well kitted out for those who like to cook- very comfortable beds and the communication was great with the owners.

Lake District
The property owners are tremendous. Everything about staying at the house was special, including the dogs. WE were there over a bank holiday weekend. The traffic was awful and would recommend staying away from this area on major holidays.

Very comfortable and fantastic views
We were a family of 4 + 2 grandparents. This rental served as a super base for exploring the lakes. The property was well stocked with everything we needed for cooking evening meals and we enjoyed playing the board games provided. We also used the fire pit and outdoor space dedicated for this unit. The beds were VERY comfortable! Thank you for a fabulous stay. We will be back!
