“Fridge was tiny; place needs redecorating; one bathroom door didn't lock and the other was so stiff one guest almost got stuck inside.”

Sofas not that comfy and kitchen could be better equipped for self catering (only sharp knife was a bread knife!). Parking was also a bit of a challenge - very tight spaces (comment that it was like a driving test!)

“There was no hot water, the fridge had no shelves, mould around the bath, lights out in various rooms, setee was very old and uncomfortable.”

It was surrounded by property being renovated so it was like a builders yard. There was a garden in the photos, no dogs are allowed in that area and it looked like the garden was outside the cottage when in fact it wasn't. I wouldn't recommend this apartment.

Ideal for hosting groups of couples, friends and families, you and your loved ones can look forward to coming together to celebrate a special occasion, as you call these wonderful properties ‘home’ as you explore the surrounding mountain fells, stunning lakes and the plethora of charming towns and villages.

After a wonderful day of exploring, look forward to coming back to the village and visiting the Farmers Arms pub for a well-deserved pint or refuel with a meal in the delightful Chalet Restaurant. Alternatively, head to the market town of Keswick, where you can enjoy leisurely boat trips around Derwentwater, a round of golf at the town’s course or find somewhere to eat, from its large selection of fine dining eateries and cosy pubs. Other attractions within the surrounding area, which are well worth a visit, include the historical landmark of Castlerigg Stone Circle, the classic Cumbrian manor house of Mirehouse or travel slightly further afield to spend the day at the Lake District Wildlife Park, home to over a 100 species of exotic animals.
