We could not fault Riverside Cottage. Beautiful location, great walks from the door step, great base to explore the wider area. Cottage is cosy, comfortable and the owner has thought of everything. We have recommended it to friends and looking to rebook. Our Cocker Spaniel enjoyed the enclosed garden and the welcome pack was very generous. Needless to say we loved it.

Beautiful cottage that provided a real home from home experience from which to base our Cumbrian adventure. Close to sites of interest, walking routes, tranquil and cosy yet minutes from wonderful pubs and shops.
