With glorious fell views, this spacious and inviting period cottage makes a fabulous holiday home for families and friends discovering magnificent lakes and mighty fells in the western Lake District.

Take a canine quartet to this charming holiday home in the Lake District and watch their tails wag in wonder at the fabulous garden here. Also sleeping six guests, the three-bedroom house, which was once a post office, includes a generous, mature outside space, complete with a lawn to play on and interesting corners to explore. Your happy hounds will also delight in days out to scenic Wastwater, 5 miles away, as well as the coast, approximately 5 miles from the house.

Make yourselves at home at soon as you enter this inviting abode. Wander through to the lounge so the pups can enjoy the warmth of the wood burner and you can relax for a while in front of the Smart TV. Alternatively, head through to the kitchen to light the wood burner in there and feed your four-legged friends. Also, cook up a delicious dinner for the human members of your group to sit down to in the dining room. You have a WC downstairs and then, at lower ground-floor level, another WC plus a washing machine and room for bicycles. At the end of each delightful day spent with your favourite furry friends, make your way up to one of the two double bedrooms or the king-size, up on the first floor, together with the elegant family bathroom. Luxuriate in the opportunities for outdoor living afforded by this cottage. Play with the pups on the grass and have lunch out in the sunshine. You also have parking for up to three cars.

Take your ecstatic canine companions to run free on the beach at Ravenglass, 5.5 miles away. See the ruins of an old Roman bathhouse. Hop aboard a heritage train on the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, on which happy hounds are also welcome to ride.

We had a great week staying at Moss bank. The house is well-equipped, and comfortable for three adult couples. The property is located above a one bedroom flat (also holiday let). The access from the garden is up stairs to the main living area. Others have commented on hot water, but with 3 couples and being aware we didn't have a problem. Kitchen Read morewell-equipped. The log burner in main living room was out of action. Owners responded promptly when contacted. Shop opposite very accessible. Hide

This is a lovely house - with a great garden. Great spot, with lovely views across the valley. It did need to be cleaned better and some incidentals were not great, but we had a brilliant holiday, so many lovely walks straight from the house.

The location and general scenery is wonderful, the downsides are the lack of cleanliness, the lack of hot water ( I did contact the owners who moved the time slots but I believed the water should be on all day, we were six adults and a young child and water often ran out because water wasn't being heated up all day).

Lovely house, everything you need, very comfy and owners very helpful. Could have been a bit cleaner as behind beds, bed head boards, skirting boards, doors, draws, wardrobes, lamp shades had not been cleaned in a while very dusty so I actually cleaned it all as my mother in law suffers with asthma and I am ocd clean.

This property has a wonderful garden and we loved sitting having a drink overlooking the fells. Our 3 dogs also enjoyed it.

This cottage is lovely - and plenty of room for 6 adults plus a baby. The garden was really great too, and the summer house was very useful. The only small niggle, was the very under-powered shower, but it is a great cottage and a beautiful location.
