Review: A stunning home from home cottage in a tranquil location with amazing facilities the perfect weekend getaway – Lily, March 2022

Relaxing Rural Retreat

What people are saying…

A stunningly refurbished cottage in the peaceful Whitbarrow village, we loved feeding the ducks and seeing the rabbits jumping around and playing chess on the giant chess board. We used the pool each afternoon after discovering different areas of the Lake District. We will defiantly be booking again a great week away.
