Guests say
The Bothy in Penrith is a well-received cottage, praised for its beautiful, quiet location and well-equipped, spacious interiors. Guests enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, the clean and comfortable accommodation, and the added luxury of a hot tub. The property is ideal for families and those seeking a rural retreat with proximity to the Lake District.
Most guests found The Bothy to be spotlessly clean and well-maintained. There were a few mentions of cobwebs and a murky hot tub, but these appear to be isolated incidents rather than the norm.
The location is highly praised for its beauty and tranquility. It is described as peaceful with lovely views, and it's well-situated for exploring the Lake District and surrounding areas.
The cottage is consistently described as comfortable, with quality fixtures and fittings, comfortable beds, and a spacious layout that exceeded expectations.
Facilities are generally very well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and clean hot tub. However, there were some minor suggestions for improvement and a few issues with Wi-Fi connectivity and mobile data.
While guests appreciated the well-equipped cottage and some mentioned welcome gifts, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtfulness in terms of gifts to provide a score. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed.
