Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: A charming cottage right in the centre of a really attractive and friendly village. Village shop on one side and pub on the other. But no noise! Wonderful walks from the front door, and Penrith or Pooley Bridge about 12 mins by car. The master bedroom ensuite has a low door and part of the bathroom ceiling is low so you need to mind your head.
Negative: A couple more dishwasher tablets would have been helpful, and there was no washing powder or liquid for the washing machine.
Summary: Three of us in our seventies, and not particularly mobile. We all loved it.
