The stains on the living room carpet and black marks along the walls don't do this lovely little cottage justice. Little things like dust along the skirting boards and a used towel left on the hook behind a bedroom door need addressing. However, these things will not detract us from booking Rowan cottage again, the owners just need to be aware of these things.

Had everything we needed, even some dog snacks in the kitchen. Well located for touring around the area.

It's a comfortable and clean place to stay with everything you need, a proper home from home. The towels and bedding are excellent quality and the bed comfy. St Bees itself is a lovely, picturesque village with a couple of pubs and shop within walking distance. There are lots of dog walks directly from the cottage and the dog friendly beach is a 10 minute walk away. The beach is absolutely stunning, with lots of sand when the tide is out. The dogs were in heaven on it!! The enclosed small rear garden is very neat and tidy, an absolute sun trap (we did have beautiful weather). We do not have any negatives on this property and will definitely book again!
