Lovely clean and comfortable cottage, beautifully situated near Whinlatter forest. Quiet location but conveniently near enough to Keswick. The host, Gabby, was attentive and made sure our stay was welcoming with personal touches. We will book again.

Great location, close enough to Keswick but in a peaceful, quiet location. The cottage itself has everything you could need and there are great walks and cycles on and off road straight from the front door!
Bottle of bubbles to greet us was a lovely surprise.
