Fantastic cottage on two upper floors with lovely views over to Helm Crag. Kitted out to a high specification with multiple TVs and modern furnishings. A lot of thought had gone into providing consumables like dishwasher tablets, tea bags etc. The bottles of beer and wine went down well.

We had an enjoyable and comfortable stay in the apartment. Fully equipped with all you could possibly need and the welcome hampers for us and our dog were a nice touch. It was a rather wet week we had but made the most of it with walks and days out. The only thing we did struggle with was trying to keep the lounge warm without using the log burner Read moremore so for my older parents. All in all a very nice place and credit to the owners Hide
