Unfortunately, my review of the property would be a 1.5 star, amazing property, and views, great walks nearby but the positives stop there. This property should not be classed as dog-friendly as my dog was over the wall (was 6 inches so a wall from the road, but not a wall from the garden side) within minutes, not a safe or secure area for dogs to go to the toilet off lead or anything.

This property is in a wonderful location in the heart of the Lake District. If you love walking it's ideal as there are many wonderful walks straight from the door. It is also easy to get to nearby Ambleside, Grasmere and Coniston, each with wonderful walking options as well as other attractions.

We had a wonderful stay at Slaters Cottage- the perfect cosy Lakeland retreat! The kitchen is very well equipped with everything we needed. The access road is small but we were fine with a van and it was well worth it for early morning and evening peaceful paddles in the river!
