If you want to stay in a quiet, pretty location in a high spec home then the Woodland is for you. I brought our family together here to celebrate my husband's 60th Birthday and was very impressed with the accommodation. We wanted peace and quiet in a lovely setting within easy reach of the Lake District and this was it. I would recommend staying here and would choose it again. Welcoming but not overwhelming with a pub close by if needed.
