Cottage had all we needed and more - cosy and comfortable. Views from the windows were all you could hope for. Welcome was extraordinary - homemade jam and scones and fresh flowers from the garden in a vase. Alpacas and chickens provided endless entertainment.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2020
This was a return visit to Blakebeck, having stayed previously in The Garth. As with that cottage, Blencathra is well-equipped, comfortable, warm and clean. Views from the windows are beautiful especially given the 'upside down' layout, which works really well. The games room is a bonus but the main attraction for our children is the animals, particularly the donkeys! There are lovely countryside walks direct from the door.
The hosts are very friendly and welcoming and the location is perfect for easy access to attractions and the motorway.
I am sure we will be returning to Blencathra in the future!
