We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Swiss Cottage. The cottage has been tastefully decorated and is spacious and comfortable throughout. The surroundings are peaceful and the exterior offers stunning views of the countryside. Lancaster is very close for all of your amenities and it's not far from the M6.
