We had a delightful stay. The Ballroom was warm and clean and with nothing lacking. Well situated to explore the area. We had dramatic winds and rain and on our last day sunshine so all bases covered. Enjoyed the sheep and Flash the Fell pony behind the cottage and ducks in front. A perfect retreat from hectic lives.

We had a great time during our trip, very peaceful place with beautiful views. The Ballroom Cottage at Cutthorne was very clean and cosy, adequately equipped for our needs. The hosts Chris and Freya were friendly and helpful . Many thanks Anna and Gavin.
