“This is a lovely cottage in a delightful quiet setting, with walks in all directions.”
It is well equipped - it felt lived in, and we are sure the owners must use it regularly. It is spacious, and we lacked nothing - it exceeded our expectations.
We found that walking up the road/lane to Skelgill was the best way to get to Derwentwater and the Allerdale Ramble: no traffic and an easy walk. We did the Newlands Circuit; Causey Pike; and cottage - Skelgill - Hawes End on Derwentwater - Grange - Rosthwaite and back. Wonderful walks, happy memories!
We some comment about running out of hot water, but had no problem there, as there is a bathroom and shower room, each with an excellent electric shower.
In summary, we were smitten and hope to be back! (And just to be clear, we have no connection to the owners - we are grateful to them for making their lovely cottage available to others to enjoy.)
