10/10 Excellent

Lovely cottage with great view

A quiet location with good views over the fells - a joy to sit in the lounge with this lovely vista. Nice walks from the front door without having to take the car. The cottage was very well equipped with everything we needed, although we could not find a dustpan to go with the brush in the kitchen. A problem with the immersion heater on our last day was resolved promptly and. without fuss. A perfect location for those seeking peace and solitude.
