Lovely, spacious cottage in a location that allows easy access to the Lake District whilst being easy to get to from the motorway network.

Andrew

Accommodation ticked all the boxes ,pitty it rained every day,plenty of walking in the woods behind the cottage, everything was just as described.

Edward

For an end of summer holidays booking the property was in great nick. The owners we quick to respond when the hot water wasn't working properly this didn't affect our stay at all and was fixed whilst we were out. Plenty of fridge and freezer space and the garden was brilliant for our 2 year old and dog. All in all great stay and would go back again Cheers

Excellent property all round,well equipped kitchen with everything you need,all beds were nice and comfortable and the games room kept everyone entertained for hours. Personally I would like to see the garden cut back a little better to get the full potential out of the summerhouse which is tucked away and overgrown slightly but this doesn't affect the quality of the house overall.would definitely stay again.

Fantastic location, excellent space inside and out. Only thing provided was a small selection of tea and coffee sachets, salt, pepper, washing up liquid and towels. Not an issue as I brought my own, but did think there might be hand soap, so just a remind to all to bring everything you need. Perfect for our dogs with easy to clean flooring.

Ann Linda

Property was situated in an ideal location , furniture and fittings were of a high standard , but the outside patio area was very unkept , I had to clean the garden chairs as they were filthy dirty . Inside the house was generally clean , but lacking in soap only in the kitchen area . Also for 6 people staying for 4 days only 2 toilet rolls were provided .

The house was amazing, everything it said it was. Thankyou Russell & Alison.

Absolutely beautiful house, beautiful stay and we will definitely return. We just didn't want to leave.

Michael

Rachel

We had a wonderful weekend at Inglenook celebrating my birthday with friends. Lots of space and everything needed for a relaxing break. The games room was a massive hit. Will definitely book again.
