! We will be looking to book again for 2025 as soon as possible because we love it! This was our first time staying in summer- the only feedback we could think of was a fan in the bedroom would be a great addition for the summer months.

It's clean and modern, yet homely enough for you to settle in quickly. It's got everything you could wish for. It's great for relaxing on the balcony watching the river go by, or as a spring board to the Lakes. I'd book again.

Great welcome pack. The setting is outstanding. Would definitely recommend and would stay again. Owners left lots of interesting information for things to do locally. They were very reassuring with contact numbers to use if assistance was required. Loved the personal welcoming card so many little touches.just helped to make it a special place to stay to relax and enjoy the Lake District.
