Crosslands, what a dream of a place to relax and purge your system of all those built up stresses. Clean, comfortable and wonderfully quiet with dreamy views over the Cumbrian countryside. The host makes you immediately welcome by making sure you have the basics required to settle in. The Wi-Fi is excellent and the tv is there if you feel you need it but to be honest it's better to look out of the window at that gorgeous countryside. From this base of tranquillity the fullest reaches of the Lake District are easy for you to enjoy. Totally recommend this beautiful bungalow.

We had a lovely time at Crosslands, everything was perfect! Crosslands was immaculate throughout.It was so peaceful and relaxing, nice little touch having the cows just outside the garden fence, our little dogs loved watching them.We would definitely recommend and will definitely be staying again.
