If you need a relaxing place to unwind from the stresses of life, you will struggle to find a better place than this. Within minutes of entering the cottage, we felt relaxed by the cottage & location alike. With sheep all around, the stream nearby and the incredible peaks around, it was a perfect place to spend a week. The log fire was the best part, making the home cozy and giving it a very homely feel. We could have stayed for a month and thanks to this beautiful cottage, have fallen in love with the lake district and already planning our next trip.

Superb cottage in an idyllic location.
Superb cottage in an idyllic location. The Duddon Valley is a well kept secret, probably one of the most beautiful valleys in the Lake District. The cottage is very cosy and full of character. The highlight of the holiday was taking breakfast and enjoying an evening sundowner in the beautifully manicured gardens of Whistling Green. There are many walks from the cottage, albeit not the largest of fells in the locality, nonetheless the views from the tops are stunning. Due to Covid, we could not visit the amenities, however, we will most definitely return to try them out! Thank you Phil for being a superb host.

Just could do with a few more mugs and plates etc.
Just could do with a few more mugs and plates etc. so you don't have to keep washing them up.
But this wasn't really a great hassle - everything was lovely, and our host very welcoming.

Were greeted with a fresh pot of tea and biscuits which was welcome after our journey. Has everything you need but make sure you bring groceries with you as there are no shops in village for useful supplies.
Beautiful and quiet. Would visit again.
