    “The cottage was lovely in a fantastic location.”

    It was perfect for walking while being convenient for local shops and places to eat out. The kitchen was well equipped, the Wi-Fi was reliable and the garden nice to sit out in when it wasn't raining. Our only complaint is that there should have been a non-slip bath mat in the bath to make using the shower safe. It would have been nice to have some hand soap and a towel in the kitchen. The stairs are very steep and there is a step between every room which it would be useful to mention in the ...

About the location

PENRITH

Keswick 17 miles; Carlisle 20 miles.

The bustling market town of Penrith, once the capital of Cumbria, enjoys a central position between the Lake District, the Westmoorland Dales and North Pennines and is ideally placed for taking in all that the region has to offer. Renowned for its wealth of specialist shops, the sandstone buildings of Penrith hide intriguing yards, lanes and alleyways, with a myriad of attractive cottages, gardens and little shops. With a wide choice of excellent pubs, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, Penrith also offers a museum, and Millennium Trails round the historic city streets. Within easy reach of the town is Rheged – an innovative visitor centre with shops, restaurants, exhibitions and a giant cinema screen showing educational and informative films. Brougham Castle, Brougham Hall (The Windsor of the North), Lowther Castle and Gardens, Long Meg and her daughters (the 3rd largest stone circle in England) and the historic city of Carlisle are all a short drive away, as is the stunning scenery of both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
