We stayed at Smithy Cottage for Christmas week and had the best time! The cottage is so cosy and is in such a great location! A 5 min walk from the pub and only a 20 min drive from Keswick! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Lovely cottage shame about the smell

The cottage and location were lovely. The private parking space was too small and very awkward to access. There was plenty of unrestricted parking in the road. The property was not adequately prepared between bookings. The cleaning did not deal with the overpowering smell of curry powder that lasted till we left.
