“This cottage absolutely ticked every box for us.”
The space was amazing, the decor tasteful and beautiful, the bed super comfy and the view was incredible. This owner has thought of everything. The kitchen area is very well equipped with lots of little touches like lots of herbs and spices, olive oil, peppercorns etc. There were plenty of dishes, utensils, cutlery and having a dishwasher, small freezer and washing machine was excellent. The fact that there was a downstairs toilet/wet room was a boon. It’s in a small hamlet but close enough to all of the important areas to visit. The Herdwick Inn serves lovely food but as it is very popular, we suggest booking before you eat there. Greystoke, just down the road has another nice inn to eat in, The Boot&Shoe. It also has an open air, heated swimming pool run by the community which opens from May to September.
We loved sitting outside on the small patio, having a coffee and enjoying the view. This was our first visit to Stag Cottage but it certainly won’t be our last. Thanks to Sykes for yet again facilitating our stay in a top notch property.
