The cottage had everything we needed and was lovely and warm when we returned home from our daily outings. The beds were very comfortable. The hot tub was an added bonus. It had amazing views of blencathra. The hosts were friendly and helpful.

The hot tub was just something else, immaculate and the view is so lovely. The stretch of grass next to the cottages was perfect for the kids to play on safely. And seeing the sheepâs little faces every morning was so nice. We will be back and I just wish it was next week not next year Thank you
