Reviewers frequently commend the property for its exceptional cleanliness, describing it as spotless and well-maintained. The attention to detail in this aspect is consistently highlighted.

The property's location is appreciated for its tranquillity and proximity to local attractions. While it is described as a bit of a drive from the most well-known Lake District attractions, the village's charm and the ease of exploring the Eden Valley are noted positively.

Guests find the property comfortable, with special mentions of cosy beds and a warm atmosphere. The secure garden adds to the comfort for those with pets. Some guests suggested improvements for seating arrangements to accommodate larger parties.

The property is well-equipped with modern fixtures and a variety of amenities. However, some guests noted minor maintenance issues and the need for additional facilities such as wardrobe space and seating in the conservatory to enhance the experience for groups of four or more.

The hosts are praised for their thoughtfulness, particularly for the welcome packs that include essentials and treats. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts, though delightful, are not guaranteed with every stay.

    The bungalow was so well equipped and comfortable , it had everything we needed. The welcome pack was very useful and thoughtful. The rear garden was fully enclosed and secure for our dogs. Our old dog has mobility issues now and even she could easily manage the two steps between the conservatory and garden. Quiet location even though it's only a five minute drive to the A66. Thanks for a lovely stay, we will definitely book again.

    . The bungalow was spotless. Very roomy, and had everything you would need for a family holiday. Our little dog Teddy had the use of an enclosed garden which was well maitained by the very friendly owner. The village was so pretty and quiet. I met other villagers while out on my daily dog walk and they were also very friendly. Our weather was a mix of showers on some days and glorious sunshine on others. It is a perfect place to stay if visiting the Lake District. Although the Eden Valley was also absolutely beautiful. Thankyou so much. We loved it !!!
