Lovely family friendly farm cottage with enclosed garden and Hot tub. Very helpful owners, and a wonderful place for children with all the different animals on site.

Good value. Location was great, it was easy to find and only a few minutes away from the north of Carlisle. Hosts were welcoming and the welcome pack is a nice touch. Beds were comfortable and all slept well. Felt it was good value for money. Would suggest upgrading the shower head in the master bedroom as it’s not great

We stayed in the Stable at Mount farm over the Christmas period, we had a fantastic time, the cottage is spacious and charming and the Emus walking by as we sat in the Hot tub was a unique experience. The owners were friendly and accommodating, adding to a wonderful family holiday.
