Fab stay in a clean and well equipped cottage. Great base for lazy days in Keswick or ventures on to the fells. Only slight issues was the dark lights, lack of washer and towels… not sure the issue if they were new but just didn't dry you. Real pluses… large rooms, clean, spacious yard and less then 5 minute walk to town.
