The beds were super comfy and the woodbury was a real treat! Fantastic large shower in spacious bathroom!

The positives are it is cosy and warm (logs provided), dedicated parking, great shower, lovely riverside setting and has wifi. Sadly the cottage did not meet our usual expectations as it felt unloved, tired and some basic things we would have expected were missing or broken, with a little bit of attention the cottage could be much more appealing and we would have considered rebooking due to location. We normally thoroughly clean anywhere we have stayed prior to leaving as well as during our stay, but no cleaning products were provided and the hoover was broken - as was the tumble drier. The small tv could do with an upgrade as it is just basic channels only. There is a lovely log fire but no matches, no bin bags, no dishcloth (found 2 yellowed pre used ones at the back of the cupboard - yuck), no cleaning products, no welcome pack, no games provided. The front door was dirty and covered in spiders nests, my husband swept it all- these things only take a couple of minutes. Several items of cooking equipment were unclean and needed washing prior to using. The main issue is the bedroom walls (curtains and lamps) had significant black mould - again we would have cleaned but no products provided - a dehumidifier would help? Itâs a shame, with some love and attention, a thorough deep clean, a paint refresh and a few touches it could be really lovely.

Lovely and clean apartment. Gated area to keep our dog in. Everything you need plus more. Will definitely be booking this apartment again. Great area to visit parts of the Lake District and plenty of places except dogs as well which is a definite for us. Lesley Brian and Charlie the lab xx
