Clean, tidy cottage with everything you need. Owners are lovely and live next door. Dog friendly but they are not allowed on furniture. Stair gate so although nothing was mentioned i didn't let mine go upstairs. My girls loved the garden and watching the neighbours dog!

It really is a well equipped cottage. It's also in a really good, quiet location, within easy reach of the A66 leading to the coast or the lakes. We went to Hill Top, Keswick Pencil Museum, the Mining Museum, Muncaster Castle and Derwent Water. Actually a relaxing week, which was much needed.
