Our stay at the Coach house was lovely and we were made to feel very welcome. We were provided with everything that we would have needed and were pleasantly surprised by home-made flapjacks that were very delicious. The cottage was clean and there were plenty of things to do - TV, board games and several fliers with information of different things Read moreto do in the area. Hide

A beautiful cottage for a working farm, very well located and comfortable. The cottage has been presented beautifully, including beautiful amenities and a glorious sunny lounge in the afternoons. Absolutely beautiful.

This property was highly recommended by friends and we were not disappointed. It was an excellent spot from which to visit the northern Lakes and the Solway coast. The owner could not have been more helpful. She also placed some home baking and other goodies in the kitchen to brighten our arrival. We would be happy to return.

Lovely cottage, owners are on site and were brilliant, very welcoming and very helpful. Beautiful welcome basket with fresh milk, eggs both from the farm, home made jam, fresh fruit and many other things. We've stayed in many cottages over the years and I can say that this one is one of the very best. Absolutely superbly presented cottage on a workRead moreing dairy farm. I would thoroughly recommend it and wouldn't hesitate to return. Many thanks. Hide

This working farm is a delightful place to stay. It was beautifully clean and very relaxing. We had lovely weather, which is always a plus in the beauty of Cumbria. We also popped into Scotland for a day too. A super holiday home with lovely owners. One of our best holidays.
