    “A very cosy cottage that has been tastefully modernised and provides excellent accommodation for a couple on a short break.”

    The views to the rear are stunning and the log burner is an added feature adding rustic charm. The village is quiet offering a couple of pubs (also offering food) local walks, and a cafe and was perfect for our escape to Cumbria. Keswick is also under 10 mins in the car. All in all, a very pleasant stay in a pretty Cumbrian cottage.
