Lovely cottage in Shap - well situated for all the amenities. Lovely garden. We were using as a base to walk the far eastern fells.

Relaxing homely atmosphere in this lovely well equiped cottage set in a friendly village. Enclosed gardens to rear was perfect for our border terriers, Jim and Charlie, who thoroughly enjoyed running around. Wood burning stove was a delight to take away the evening chill. Thoroughly enjoyed our week there and would highly recommend this cottage to anybody as a base for discovering the area.
