Ideal for a week exploring the lakes

Great location, close enough to Keswick but in a peaceful, quiet location. The cottage itself has everything you could need and there are great walks and cycles on and off road straight from the front door! Bottle of bubbles to greet us was a lovely surprise.

A hideaway

Well-cared for property with all that we needed. Nice to be welcomed with a letter from our hosts and a bottle of prosecco! The river running by the old sawmill sent me to sleep at night, and the peace of the area was great, while the closeness of Keswick meant you were easily able to get stores or find eating places.
