Chose the cottage as we needed to be near Skelton and proved to be the perfect spot for us. Excellent base to roam from and to explore the less touristy parts of Cumbria. The cottage itself was well equipped with the host on hand should they be needed but we didn’t experience any issues during our stay. ##### Carl Doolan This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria 3 Oct 2020 #### We had a great week at sycamore cottage.
