We had a very good time in this cottage. The quiet location with the nice views from all the windows, a lot of space to relax outside, the inside of the cottage with the cosy livingroom, the kitchen with all equipment to make good meals, the dishwasher :-), the bedrooms with comfortable beds and the two bathrooms: perfect for a family of 5! We highly recommend this place!The start of a lot of beautiful walks in the Lake District are within 45 mins. distance.We visited Keswick, Ambleside, Grasmere and of course Penrith nearby. The Penrith Agricultural Show was very funny. Supermarkets in Penrith are only 10 mins. by car. ##### Dick Molenaar This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carole Mcginley 9 Jun 2025 #### Fabulous especially if you have a dog as excellent enclosed garden. Fabulous especially if you have a dog as excellent enclosed garden. All amenities you could want and very clean. Short drive to large supermarket but in very quiet area only 4 miles from Ullwater.
