It was great to be honest and just what we expected and no hidden things come to mind. It was how it was explained when I booked it.

Well equipped small cottage close to shops & pubs, and a great place to start several walks. I wouldn't recommend eating at the local pubs, it is very much out of the freezer at rather high prices and zero atmosphere. The local shops are however good. This is probably the first rental in which I have found a pepper grinder. Five stars for that. TheRead more views from the cottage aren't great, but a short walk down to the pier more than makes up for that. Hide

Location of cottage is superb and lots of local walks on the doorstep. Parking spot is a bonus anywhere in the Lakes. Very well equipped, decor a little dated but clean and tidy.

Great location just short walk to lake and local amenities. Cottage has lovely little garden which gets the sun most of the day and was lovely to sit and relax in. Lots of equipment and tea towels cloths and cleaning products, handy having a washing machine as well with a little one. The stairs are quite steep which isnt uncommon in older cottages Read morebut having to hand rails really helped with going up and downstairs. Hide

Loved the place, great situation, but the parking space is small. Would have stayed on for the weekend which showed up as available, but asking price was over 600 which was almost what we paid for a week.
