The location is quiet and remote, surrounded by the beautiful nature reserve, but close enough to the Lake District for us to make day trips to Coniston etc. The owners were extremely helpful and promptly responded when there were minor issues. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway for nature lovers. ##### Victoria D.
