Riversdale was perfect for our weekend in Grasmere. The cottage is beautiful and had everything we needed. The only downside for me was the garden wasnt as secure as id hoped for my two little dogs. There was a review that said it was completely enclosed and that was the reason for our choosing Riversdale but that person must have been there in summer because when we were there in February the hedges were sparse and the dogs could easily have gotten through the gaps. Didnt put too much of a dampener on the weekend though so dont let that put you off this lovely spacious, quirky cottage.
