Mike & Vickie were very welcoming, lovely homemade produce, butter, milk, bread & chocolates on arrival was a nice touch. Fantastic accommodation bed was so comfy, the barn was decorated for Christmas which was very nice. We loved the meadows for our dog, the scenery was superb. Ideal location for the western lakes but not too far for other locatioRead morens. If you fancy popping over the border theres a lovely distillery at Annan with a fab cafe which is very dog friendly.

Lovely wee place. Lovely wee touches with homemade jam and bread and milk for in for our arrival. Proper tea pot in the cupboard and decent size mugs for tea and coffee. Good location for exploring the west side of the lake District and coast line. Easy to find yet you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. Amazing views day and night.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay at Green Goose Barn. It is a delightful setting with ample room for our dogs especially in the meadow adjacent to the property. The owners are lovely, welcoming and very helpful. Will be going again.

Barn was perfect, made very welcome and delicious homemade treats left for us, along with essentials. Beautiful part of the country, but you really don't have to set foot out of the gate to have a wonderful stay!

We received a very warm welcome, from Mike and Vicki, the house was spotless and very well equipped, especially the kitchen. We both enjoyed the welcome pack and my husband particularly liked the biscuits. The dog paddock was a godsend to our dogs who enjoyed running around it and exploring the scents in the fields. The only downside for us was thaRead moret the cottage wasnt as isolated as we had hoped and could hear fireworks over several nights, one of the dogs is scared of them. Highly recommended. Hide
