In essence Mole's Cottage offers couples an idyllic and comfortable base, conveniently situated for enjoying the very best of the beautiful Lake District.

The modern cottage kitchen is well appointed, benefiting from electric oven and hob, fridge with small freezer compartment, microwave & dishwasher. The kitchen also enjoys a lovely view towards the fields & forest beyond (no fighting over who washes up here!).
