Reviews

What an amazing little cottage. Sally Anne provides all the perfect little touches to make your stay superb. She went out of her way to accommodate us with space for a travel cot and the cottage location is perfect for exploring the Scafell region. The cottage is spacious enough for a family of four and was extremely clean and well stocked with all the essentials. Such a great cottage on a working farm with really friendly sheep (see pic) We will definitely be back as West is Best when it comes to the Lake District. Thank you for an amazing week.
