Immaculate, cosy and comfortable. Well equipped, and the hosts were really welcoming and helpful - making meal recommendations and helping us dry our wet walking gear. The village is peaceful but really convenient for Ullswater, Keswick, Penrith etc. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely cottage with everything you could possibly want. Very close to the M6 (10minute drive) and perfectly positioned to exore Cumbria and the Lake District. Ullswater/Kendal/Keswick all within a short drive. Debs couldnt have been nicer or more welcoming. Felt like we I knew her my whole life lolWould highly recommend. Photos do not do the cottage justice.

Sandra and James have a beautiful cottage attached to their home in Skelton, a pretty village in the Lakes Distict. Sandy was very helpful with suggestions for hikes and restaurants. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all the basics. There is a pretty garden for enjoying the morning sun.

We choose Pottery cottage for its close by lakes and locations that we like to explore and it was perfect. Sarah has been quick and helpful communicating and welcoming. The property was immaculately clean, accurately described at website, kitchen well equipped, living room specious then it looks in the picture, beautiful garden. our 8 year old enjoyed board games. Nearest M&S food hall was 10-12 min away. It is good base to visit surrounding -Pooley bridge, Ullswater was 25 min away. Glenridding 34 min and Keswick less then half an hour, Ambleside 47 min away. The village is quite , peaceful, local pub was 2 min walk. We loved and enjoyed our stay ; recommend to friends too.
