This is a really lovely place to stay, really nicely placed outside of Keswick. Comfy beds and a great kitchen with everything you could need.There was a little bit of dog hair coming out of the living room carpet but as it is a dog friendly property I guess this is to be expected. Very easy to find and plenty of parking for 2 cars to the rear.
