    Narrow lane and courtyard which made parking awkward. Although the cottage was cosy and comfortable, certain aspects were dated and tired. The small rear patio area needed tidying up ( there were several cigarette butts in the cracks between the flag stones which were uneven and wobbly in places)

    The location was quiet.

    I’m a bit hesitant about this as I’ve a feeling there was a reason why but the kitchen was a little grubby. Had to clean the dog food stuck in plug hole, toaster hadn’t been wiped down since last used as crumbs all over the top, wiped dining table as crumbs on it, potato masher had potato stuck in it, the cooking oil needs to be replaced as dated 2017. I honestly don’t mind these little things however it was the smell from the fridge that we struggled with. I tried cleaning it but I think the smells coming from the drainage hole and with it being an integrated fridge it would be extremely difficult to sort out. I believe one of the owners might’ve been in hospital, (overheard a conversation in the pub), so can completely understand they didn’t have the time or frame of mind to pick up on these issues. I would still recommend the cottage to others.

    Beautiful location and cottage. Comfy, homely and welcoming. Cottage was nice and warm for our arrival, beds were so comfortable and the welcome pack came in very handy. Even had dressing gowns and toiletries. Would definitely come back. Thank you! The Punch Bowl pub is worth a visit and the food is lush.

    I couldn’t get the tv to work, read a book instead. I think the outside light needs a new bulb but a torch was provided which was a nice touch.

    Beautiful cottage, so cosy and warm and a very quiet location. Small courtyard which was totally secure for my dogs, a rarity in holiday lets.

    Cosy cottage with very friendly owner. Location is ok but I definitely recommend a car to get in/out of a location. It's close enough to Windermere etc. given the price/location

    It would benefit from some upgrades but it was fine for us for a night.

    Nice small cottage in lovely countryside. Meet my the owner who was very friendly and welcoming. He was understanding when I told him I needed to get change for the £15 dog charge. The cottage is nicely laid out. There was tea, coffee milk, biscuits, cereal and biscuits which was lovely.

    Was a little tricky to find with google maps, so specific instructions would have been good. A synthetic scented room freshener made me feel sick, some people are sensitive to them (had to hide it for our duration).

    Lots of little extras that made this place very homely, like a cosy family cottage, such as decent toiletries, some food left for guests. Pretty 'cottage' decor that matched the building. We were only stopping en route but imagine a good place to base yourselves for local sightseeing. Quiet rural setting.

    Host reply to us saying that the cottage was cold. We asked if we could put the heating on (which we could not control) just for an hour to warm the cottage up. He replied that the heating goes off in May and only comes on in the morning for one hour. There was a small electric fan type heater in the room/kitchen area which just took the edge off but no use for bathroom and bedrooms. Yes this year is an exception but an hour to warm things up on arrival would of made a lot of difference comfort wise.

    The beds were quite comfortable and facilities good

    Only thing couldn’t manage to make the stand alone shower to get hot water. And no instructions unfortunately Managed to use the shower bath head which became hot.

    Very cute little cottage in beautiful country side location Comfortable beds and slept well Liked the roof windows and patio doors overlooking the fields. Liked the helpful supply of condiments as we forgot our red sauce. Sunday roast was very delicious at the punch bowl pub not far away.

    I arrived in the dark and sat nav wasn't very good at getting me right to the gate (though it was dark and i would have spotted this in daylight) called owner who was brilliant, directed me and then guided me into parking space. Welcomed me into cottage which was ready with heating on for me. Lovely place to stay and will return in the future

    Parking was a little difficult, especially in the dark, as there was nowhere to turn around. Couldn’t read instructions on how to use the coffee machine, so it was a bit trial and error.
