For our 6 day stay. Loved the wood burner n looked forward to getn back to get it on. Very well equipped with all utensils need for a stay away from home. Situated in a quiet wee village, well positioned to visit historical and interesting places, great wee cafe in High Bentham for breakfast and local shops for quick shops. Brilliant stay cosy comfortable cottage Only negative aware that its dog friendly as we had our wee chorkie and that the previous people had left the day we arrived but found it difficult to settle with the stains on the carpets would recommend purchasing a spot washer for accidents vx

It was warm and cosy - I didnât get to use the log burner as the weather was so mild. Communication with Sarah, the owner, was warm and friendly.

On perhaps a less positive note advertised parking is not brilliant being on the road which is somewhat narrow and just after a bend meaning a parked vehicle may not be readily visible and could be sideswiped. I parked in a free car park just off the main road through Low Bentham. Lo0cation, down the hill, turn left and about maybe 100 yards up on the right.. The cottage is elevated from the road and access is via a rather steep poorly maintained cobbled drive ; a rail is provided on the low wall to provide a firm hold. Other than those two proviso's we were very happy with the cottage and recommend. Note that most pubs in the area finish serving food at 8pm but that is no reflection on the accommodation.
