“Drystones provides an excellent base for a walking holiday in the Lake District.”
It is in a good location within the beautiful village of Grasmere, with a great view over the river below. It is comfortable, cosy and well-equipped with a good TV, Internet, cooker, microwave fridge, dish washer and washing machine. There are plenty of helpful gadgets like an iron and hairdryer, plenty of cupboards and drawers, a great many walking books (that we made good use of) and reading books and a good number of enjoyable games.
The down sides were steep stone steps leading up to the property, and a low ceiling in the main bedroom.
We love Grasmere and are often there at the beginning of January to celebrate my birthday - but this year the village this week was empty and closed!! - most of the hotels, restaurants, cafes and pubs were closed for refurbishment or lack of staff - but it didn't spoil our stay - and thankfully The Good Sport next door to Drystones was open (except on Monday).
We would recommend the property for a couple or 2 couples. Thank you.
