Amazing location and lovely hosts. The welcome hamper was the best we've ever had; including bread, milk, eggs, butter plus tea & coffee. The cottage was lovely & warm with fabulous views of the nearby fells. Lots of information about local attractions and walks especially what was dog friendly. The hosts, Sheila & Brian were so helpful and it was especially nice to meet their lovely dog. We loved the open plan layout and the kitchen had everything needed to cook there. Ulverston was about 15 minutes away and had lots of local shops as well as a few supermarkets. Would recommend 100%

The beds were very firm, and the property was a little dated and in need of some maintenance, love and care. The TV needs some attention especially when weather conditions are poor, the digital signal was poor. The owners welcomed us and a very generous welcome pack was provided especially welcome since we arrived late in the day. Property was warm and a great location for visiting the area.
