We had a lovely week staying in this gorgeous, quirky cottage. It had everything we needed, surrounded by stunning views. The farm is remote, but we found it in low cloud and rain with the supplied instructions (despite a 1 in 4 hill), and Asda delivered our shopping there with no problem. The unique lighting arrangements in the cottage was entertaining and it took us awhile to work out which switch was for which light. It truly is a lovely place, and well located for walks, and drives to Coniston, Muncaster Castle and Furness Abbey to name a few great spots to visit. I can't recommend it highly enough. ##### Sally and family ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandals Royal Bahamian - ALL INCLUSIVE Couples Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Nassau-Hotels-Sandals-Royal-Bahamian-ALL-INCLUSIVE-Couples-Only.h3652.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d178314-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Early Check-in in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Hotel-With-Early-Check-In.0-0-d178315-thotelwithearlycheckin.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Rock Casino, Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Red-Rock-Casino.h1380135.Hotel-Information) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Garden Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Garden-Place-Hotel.h1060721.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Rome (FCO) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fco/yvr/rome-to-vancouver) > > [Air India](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-India-Flights.cAI.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages ### General
