William Court Cottage is praised for its beautiful location and well-equipped kitchen, with many guests expressing a desire to return. The property offers a comfortable stay with ample walking opportunities and a nearby pub. While some maintenance issues are noted, these do not significantly detract from the overall positive experience.
The property generally receives positive remarks on cleanliness, with most guests finding it clean upon arrival. However, there are isolated comments about the need for a deeper clean in certain areas, such as shower mould, which slightly impacts the overall perception.
The location is highly praised for its stunning setting and proximity to walking paths and local attractions. The presence of wildlife and the scenic grounds of Irton Hall add to the charm, making it a favoured aspect among guests.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the cottage homely, contributing to a restful stay. However, there are comments about the need for better mattresses and additional seating, which suggests room for improvement in comfort levels.
The cottage is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, and guests appreciate the inclusion of Wi-Fi. Nonetheless, recurring mentions of maintenance issues, such as loose taps and a problematic key safe, indicate that the facilities could be better maintained.

A superb, terraced, Lakeland cottage in the grounds of the Irton Hall Estate, a mile from the village of Santon Bridge, four miles from Wastwater. The accommodation in this welcoming Lake District cottage has been decorated and furnished to a very good standard, and is delightful both as a relaxing romantic retreat and a cosy family base, all set amidst wonderful Lakeland countryside. There is solid oak flooring throughout the ground floor, a king-size bed in the main bedroom, a pellet woodburning stove in the sitting room and a well-equipped kitchen. Guests have use of 19 acres of lovely parkland, and this area of Western Cumbria is a particularly beautiful region. There is superb walking and climbing on the doorstep, and with trails to suit all abilities, everyone can enjoy the spectacular surroundings. Great bike trails are available in the area, there is a local pub with excellent food, a lovely local tea room, Muncaster Castle is a short drive away, or why not enjoy a round on the nearby 18-hole golf course or a ride on the miniature railway in nearby Eskdale? A wonderful Lake District cottage for a superb holiday. Note: This cottage is close to Ref. 3977, together they sleep 8.
Irton Hall sits at the foothills of the Western fells and is situated amongst breathtaking lakeland countryside. Irton Hall lies just a couple of miles from Santon Bridge and Eskdale Green and is steeped in history with Oliver Cromwell and Henry VI both visiting the Irton Hall Estate. The area around Irton Hall is a walker's haven with many peaks, just as Scafell, Great Gable and Hard Knott and valleys, just as Eskdale and Wasdale all nearby. Other attractions in the area that are well worth visiting are Muncaster Castle, the World Owl Centre and the Ravenglass to Eskdale miniature railway, plus Wastwater - the deepest lake in the country and St Olaf's - the smallest church . Irton Hall is a perfect base to explore this peaceful part of the Lake District.
