Lovely House to spend time with my friends from the Midlands. There was everything we need to make it a relaxing break. The house was clean and tidy, well equipped and close to 2 pubs for evenings out. It was also on a bus route which enabled us to walk to Keswick and return on the bus.Wonderful place to stay would recommend to my friends.

A cosy, welcoming cottage in a great location. Really clean and well equipped. Did struggle keeping the fire going despite following the instructions but was warm enough anyway with the heating. Extremely peaceful, lovely rooms downstairs and upstairs. Would definitely use again
