Easy access to Ulverston and the coast. We were a little unlucky with our week as the Priory and cafe were closed, and some days were very noisy with the volume of contractors traffic and demolition work at the adjoining property, but obviously this was a one-off and should not affect any future occupants. Overall extremely well equipped and spacious cottage in a lovely setting.

Woodland walks down to the beach each morning then a coffee at the Priory. Went to a couple of the meditation sessions in the temple. A couple more cushions for the lounge would be more comfortable, but well equipped in the kitchen. We would probably go again.
