“The cottage is in need of updating, there is paint peeling off of most walls in the cottage, very dark inside.”
The living room felt tatty, the carpet in front of the fire had lots of holes in it. The road outside is very noisy and because the cottage is on a sharp narrow bend you have large lorries stopping outside the windows inchs away. The only lovely bit was the back garden and plenty of parking. Would not stop here again, disappointed!

I am sorry you were disappointed, I would like to clarify on the issues raised.
There are no holes in any of the carpets throughout. A log has fallen on the rug in front of the woodburner and made a burn hole, we are replacing this. We have plans this month to repair the areas of paint damage which is not on every wall. The wet bath mat and towels left by yourselves on the chest of drawers has damaged the varnished wood and requires further repair.
The photos and descriptions are all up to date, including the outside showing the cottage garden at the front and distance from the road. As previous guests have mentioned there is a large rear garden so plenty of space to relax.
The Sunday Times recommends the Duddon Valley as a great base for exploring the Lake District. Many attractions are accessible from the cottage and we provide information on walks, local beaches and the lakes themselves. I hope the information provided was useful in enjoying your days out and hope you had a good stay otherwise.
