Loved Hoopers End. Very roomy, comfortable and clean. Close to Kendal, Windermere etc so ideal base for exploring. Enjoyed a family barbecue in sunny outside seating area with friendly cows over the wall!

This is a lovely property. It has everything you need with real attention to detail. Perfect spot for us to spend our Whit week with our family. We visited as a group of 9 (4 adults, 5 children) and this was a great spot for us. Supermarket is a 5 minute drive. Local hospital is a 5 minute drive. Lots of amenities nearby. Beautiful walks from the cottage.

Excellent cottage for a family get together, the owners have thought of everything you may need from a huge choice of books to cupboard basics. The house is beautiful inside, spacious and immaculately clean. It’s in small village which is quite and peaceful but only a few miles from some great attractions and the southern lakes, Kendal is very close by with an array of supermarkets and places to eat.. parking is only available adjacent to the house for 2 cars. There is other parking but be prepared for this. We all had a lovely time and would definitely return.
