We unfortunately arrived at the accommodation in the middle of Storm Boela. St Bees experienced a power cut and the property had its electrical power downgraded. This meant the upstairs lights didn’t work and we couldn’t use the boiler (for heating or hot water), the cooker, microwave, toaster and kettle. Obviously not the fault of the property owner. The owner (Dawn) was really helpful when we contacted her and kept us up to date with the situation from the electricity provider.Other than that - the accommodation was clean, well presented and well equipped in the kitchen - we have stayed in far too many properties that advertise a “kitchen” but then have insufficient plates, cups and cutlery for the number of people staying! The only thing that we were disappointed with was the dvd player didn’t work. After the first “electric” related drama, we had a really enjoyable holiday. We drove easily to Ennerdale and Wasdale Head for walks and found museums to visit in Whitehaven.

Brilliant week. Only a local shop selling basics. Whitehaven a few miles down the road and there is a new regular bus service, plus regular trains to and from St bees and Whitehaven. The location is perfect only a few hundred yards from the beach. There's a lovely cafe and a dog friendly pub on the beach .The house is clean, well equipped and relaxing. Perfect for a relaxing holiday.
