Lovely property with a kitchen that has everything you could think of.

Great property. 5 people do have to share the main bathroom if you have full occupancy but there is another toilet downstairs. Comfy bed, large rooms, tastefully decorated. Large back garden and near to some lovely walks.

The Rockery was very well appointed and lovely to find Prosecco and tea bags for example already there. The rooms were large enough for all 8 of us and situated very well for exploring the area. To walk 50 yards to get fresh eggs was a bonus and Shap Abbey was lovely to visit a short walk away. There was enough parking for all of us and it was very quiet. We would really recommend it.

Congratulations to the cleaning team.

Congratulations to the cleaning team. This is a big spacious house and is immaculately maintained. Loved the dignity of the furnishings. Loved the space indoors and out. Breakfast on the decking with gorgeous views and glorious sunshine was a lovely way to start the day. The sunset view from the dining room was spectacular. Thank you for a perfect stay
