“"Dale View is a great, spacious property in a peaceful location with beautiful views.”
Easy to get to and from local towns"
The property is comfortable including the beds and once inside, being all on one level we found it more accessible due to wheelchair.
Only problem with wheelchair is the two steps but got over that. Jacuzzi not working.
SatNav takes you further up road, look for Caterite as you enter Embleton from east and its right next door.
Pros: All on one level – Good swimming Pool with shower and wash basin – Great views while sitting in lounge – Quiet and no noise from Caterite next door – Allows Dogs (see below) – 2 mins from A66 – Locals very friendly – Lots of wildlife to watch from kitchen & lounge windows – Well equipped kitchen.
Maybe many Cons, but did not make stay bad.
Cons: No recycling done (all in one bin, every other property had recycling bins out on collection day) – TV impossible to watch during daylight, due to its position beside a window without curtain (better over Fireplace) – Not dog secure as walls around property very low, allowing dogs to get out onto road even my Shih Tzu – Wi-Fi very intermittent, affects catch-up and Netflix (Freezing) – No soap powder/liquid for washing machine – No dishwasher tablets – No local shop information (information in book left for you) – No radiator heating (3 days very cold).
Bassenthwaite Lake Station has a lovely café and restaurant and only 6 mins down A66 towards Keswick. Out of cottage left, 1st right, left onto A66, 1st right. On left just down lane.
Dog Walking entrance to wildlife area just further down lane past station on right by bus stop, with a great walk around lake on purpose-built walkway.
