The bustling market town of Penrith, once the capital of Cumbria, enjoys a central position between the Lake District and North Pennines and is ideally placed for taking in all that the region has to offer. Renowned for its wealth of specialist shops, the sandstone buildings of Penrith hide intriguing yards, lanes and alleyways, with a myriad of attractive cottages, gardens and little shops. With a wide choice of excellent pubs, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, Penrith also offers a museum, and Millennium Trails round the historic city streets.

Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.

Reviews

Stayed in this cottage for my birthday week and recovery from surgery, cottage smelt off wet dog when you opened the door, sofa dirty and stained fortunately we took some throws and used these to cover the sofa, double bed needs new mattress serious roll together, as previously stated on sykes cottages reviews, mattress stained with no mattress protector on. Bed on mezanine level too low to try not practical at all, we ended up sleeping in the twin single beds (pine beds ok need tighthening up though) attention to detail required in every room, hot water is scalding hot, ants in downstairs bathroom constantly and toilet seat was broken, like I've said lacking in attention to detail. Hot tub was great, engineer came and attended to it half way through our week there, not sure when the hot tub water was changed, we did enquire and was told it would be a £50 extra charge if we wanted the water changed. Main oven in the kitchen didn't work, kitchen grimey, some cutlery and dishes not been washed. All in all we had a good week away, but were disappointed with the property. I did as asked and posted an honest review on Sykes cottages too but as yet it has still not appeared on there. Hasten to say will not book with Sykes again.

What a great place to stay with friends. Plenty of bed rooms and bathroom and a hot tub to boot. Located at the top of the lake district and within close driving distance to the lakes and mountain walk, this is an ideal place to stay.

We have just returned from a week at this lovely cottage it is a beautiful presented cottage the place was very clean and the bedding and towels was all provided. The rooms was all presented lovely the reclining sofa was so comfortable and we enjoyed the large table in the dining room to sit and enjoy our food. They have thought about everything in the cottage it has lots of glasses crockery and cutlery the kitchen was well stocked with everything you will need. It has lots of extra touches plastic glasses for the garden leaflets of places to visit seasonings in the cupboard bin bags tea towels even an alarm clock in the bedroom there is a lot of thought put into making your holiday a great one. The garden is lovely and secure for children and dogs. The hot tub is a lovely extra we was in it every evening they even provide a pop up gazebo in case of the rain . I would not hesitate to book another week it was a great base to travel to see Penrith and Keswick

Great stay , hot tub amazing. Good facilities. Garden dog friendly enclosed and great size. Nice location and good walks with dogs. Shame that pub on doorstep does not let dogs in. Would definitely recommend and will book again

Area is good, cottage is not. Kitchen facilities dirty, patio dirty and weedy with used BBQ left, grass very long, shabby bedding, not enough towels, toilet seat in downstairs shower room broken as previously mentioned in 2016. Previous occupants belongings found (jeans, bras and used razor). Dirty cutlery in bedroom. Best thing was hot tub and settee comfortable.

Quiet location, centrally located to travel to popular lakes locations. Hot tub was a great addition, nice large garden for the dogs. Could do with a little TLC and a few more personal touches, but oversall a comfortable relxing stay.
