    “Nightingale Cottage was lovely.”

    Small, cosy and comfortable with everything we needed for a few days break. Threlkeld is ideally situated for Keswick, several beautiful lakes and many of the major Wainwright's. The cottage is less than 5mins wander from the Horse and Farrier, a popular pub and restaurant, and nestled in the foothills of Blencathra, so has stunning views. Would we go back? Of course we would and Mollie the Collie loved it too and was made to feel just as welcome as we were. Thank you for a cosy stay.
