A wonderful , rural escape . Matthew met us as we arrived and had been excellent with communication after booking . The cottage is beautifully presented and spotlessly clean in an ideal location for exploring the north lakes or spending time in the fields . We will definitely be returning !

Matthew is a thoughtful host. We didn't know what to expect, being from the US. The cottage went above and beyond our expectations. We wished we could stay longer. Besides being very comfortable, and in a beautiful area, the cottage had everything we needed to cook our own food. The WiFi worked well, and there were numerous games and books for entertainment. It's an easy drive to the sights in Keswick, and the market. We hope to return one day.

This was a beautiful place, nicely equipped and we were lucky enough to see a lamb being born. It is a working farm and the host was very accommodating. It was a nice overall experience!
