The whole farmhouse vibe!!! Exactly what I was after. So peaceful, walks you can do, lots of sheep and general wildlife...birds, rabbits.
Bathrooms good.. especially downstairs shower. Great to have 2 bathrooms. Loved underfloor heating in dining area...put clothes rack in there overnight and dried all the clothes...being able to wash was brilliant. Great fridge and freezer for longer stays. Enjoyed the cosy lounge too
Nothing really. Some people may not like rustic, but I had no qualms...brilliant atmosphere there. A feeling you could step back in time.

The authenticity of the property was its main charm. Beautifully restored and original features kept, furnished tastefully and in keeping with the period. It felt like being on the set of poldark or wuthering heights.
The drive up to the farmhouse was a little tricky and may have been difficult in a smaller saloon type car, but was well worth it

This was my second visit to Dash Farm, a hidden gem that has everything for me.
Some great walks were had, the views are stunning. I look forward to booking again some time in the future.
Nothing at all

We booked this property based on reviews and photos. Boy did it exceed our expectation - photos just don’t do it justice. in part, some of the building dates back to 1500AD so yes, it is a little rustic but very comfortable and reasonably well equipped. Any lack in modern creature comforts is made up by unforgettable scenery - you’ll be nestled between mountain ranges surrounding you with a waterfall at one end of the valley. The waterfall is about 2kms away accessible by an easily walked track. For those more adventurous souls, ‘Skiddaw’ (one of England's highest mountains) is also within walking distance as well. Imagine waking up in the morning and seeing all of this - we did and it was easily great value. Eleanor and James are great hosts as well and will make you feel at home.
A few more cooking utensils would be good otherwise perfect.
