Lovely home to stay in , would recommend for sure . The bottom garden was a bit overgrown . However I feel this is more due to the weather recently and whilst there . It had everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and we loved playing the games in the evening . There was something for everyone . The little welcome gifts were an added bonuRead mores and appreciated. Location was great enabling a nice walk to catbells the first sunny morning we had and Keswick the rainy mornings Hide
