“Had a lovely stay at Stonethwaite cottage.”

Just 2 things that could be improved on-the bed was very uncomfortable in bedroom 1 and the hot tap in the en-suite doesn’t work. Otherwise, a lovely cottage

“The cottage was exactly what we hoped it would be.”

Spacious, comfortable and above all set in beautiful picturesque surroundings. Nick the owner and his partner who live next door were extremely friendly and the bottles of wine from them on arrival were a lovely gesture. The pub is a mere 50 yards from the front gate, serving good food and ales and the landlord was very pleasant. Overall a great cottage, perfect location for walking in the hills and friendly owners. Thanks for a great week. Andrew, Kirsty & Barney the dog

“This cottage was beautifully set and had everything we needed the owners were friendly but not overbearing, we were really pleased and had a great time.”

The only thing that I would change would be the mattress on the en suite double bed, it was really hard and is dome shaped in the middle, making it very uncomfortable. Other than that it was perfect, we would definitely stay again and friends that visited us, expressed their interest too! Thank you.

“Perfectly placed for walkers, drinkers, or both”

A charming cottage in the back-of-beyond. Just what was required over a festive Christmas break. The kitchen's facilities were more than sufficient for us to comfortably prepare a Christmas meal for 5. A short walk along the beck to Rossthwaite and we were able to get a lovely meal and some fine beer in the Riverside pub. I did find it difficult to get comfortable in the bed in Room 1. And for those in need of WiFi (why this would be required I am not sure) may find it difficult to get a signal in those areas not adjacent to the adjoining farmhouse.
