Location was very good for us near a friend we wished to see and not far from Carlisle for supplies . Plenty of locations to visit in Cumbria and Scotland also walks for our dog to explore. The house could do with a larger fridge freezer to cut down on visits to get supplies ? kitchen cabinets need attention ! tired and wonky ! frying pan needs scrapping ? a smaller pan just to fry and egg would do ! I took our air fryer a double stack Ninja which was used every day as at home so a good addition maybe !
