2 Park Nook Close

Great house lovely location clean and tidy will definitely visit again had a great week

We had a great stay.

The property was spot on. Everything we needed was provided. The location was great for getting to places we wanted to go. The meals at the Brown Cow pub we all loved. The food was first class Amanda and her boys should be proud of themselves. We'd love to return

The property has good car parking in the gated yard which also is the outside space for children and dogs, with picnic tables for both cottages.

The yard could do with a tidy up, dead plants, evidence of dogs etc. Need to take great care exiting as its on a 60mph road, just past a bend. The cottage (no 2) is generally clean and tidy with everything provided for kitchen use, except there is no instructions how to use the electric hob and no markings on the knobs to say which ring they operate, so it's guess work as all the knobs just turn round and round, no idea what temperature settings they're on. I didn't use the oven, but it could do with a deep clean. Beds are comfy and linen clean, plenty of clean towels provided. There is a washing machine but I didn't need to use it. TV and freeview worked well with a good picture. The electric fire was quite noisy but warmed the room on a chilly evening. I would stay here again, as on the whole it is cosy and homely.

We had a lovely stay at the cottage, nice set up and clean ,great location and friendly locals, the food in the pub next door was excellent if only a small menu .

Would recommend

The accommodation was very clean and had every thing we needed owners were very helpful and friendly it was a very good stay really enjoyed it would come again

The house was good overall in a nice location but it could seriously do with some money spent on it.

The downstairs toilet the ceiling and the smell of damp despite me buying an air freshener the smell would not go away, the bathroom cabinet totally smashed inside and unusable and the underneath of the bath it looks quite unsightly the bedside cabinet in the main bedroom the top drawer was all smashed inside and unusable, also could do with some nice duvet covers or at least ironed, the towels were very marked and grubby the old boiler looks very unsightly with the grey tape all over it, the windows in all the rooms need some tlc some locked on there own and only 1 key to open them all.A new proper guest book not just an A4 pad, proper instructions and batteries checked as we had to replace the ones in the detector in the back bedroom and the tv control. Instructions on the waste where it needed to go etc .As I said it just needs some TLC and some money spent on it. The pub next door the food was good and the people lovely.

Living room and beds comfortable.

Kitchen facilities need upgrading, no markings on hob, toaster was pathetic, freezer on worktop not shown in photos and took up valuable worktop space. Microwave on top of freezer, not easy to access and in our opinion not very safe. Finishing strip on worktop fell off and blocked drawers. Staff at brown cow very helpful with hob and finishing strip. Old central heating boiler sealed with duct tape and has been so for over a year. Photos advertising property are outdated. Property does not have carpeted flooring although new flooring was lovely. Outside seating was also not as shown. No 1 was a far superior quality cottage yet similarly priced!!

Lovely cosy cottage!

Beautifully clean. Lovely comfortable furnishings. Very well equipped with everything that you could need plus more! Queen size bed was super comfy. Excellent tv and Wi-Fi signal. Nice little gated parking area where we could let our dogs out. It’s so nice to have somewhere pleasant to stay with our dogs. I noted some people had commented on being by the main road - it does state this in the description. Traffic didn’t worry us at all, and there is a back bedroom away from it. Fabulous traditional pub next door - bonus of not having far to walk home! They were very welcoming and great for meals and drinks at reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend this cottage and we had a lovely, pleasant stay. I would book again.

Absolutely lovely place and nice quaint places to visit.

Nice and secure rear yard for dogs too.

It was so lovely and comfortable.

I didn't want to leave.

We greatly appreciated a later checkout, so thank you again.

The outside needs a lot of TLC, and the noise from the barking dogs next door was distressing.

Had a really great stay.

It was perfect for the dogs

Had a great stay in this lovely little cottage, it was well equipped, the only thing I can say is that I didn't know where to empty the bins!

Not a big deal but I felt bad leaving 2 bin bags at the property. Comfy beds and overall cute little place.

Nice location,massive and comfortable bed,it needs a welcome pack to explain how to turn the central heating on,recycling, etc and you have a washing machine and iron but no clothes horse or pegs for the washing line and the shower doesn’t stop hot for very long.

On a more positive note the kitchen has loads of cooking utensils, pans, etc, the sofas are comfortable and the WiFi signal was good.

A lovely little cottage with everything needed for a comfortable stay.

There were even dog bowls in the cupboard, which was just as well, as I had forgotten to bring mine

I'd move in if I could hahaha Loved the place will 100 percent be coming back Thank you for the lovely home , lovely stay and get another signing book , the last one was full Thank you loved the whole place

This property provided for all our needs.

It was very well set out & readily accomadated 4 adults & 2 dogs. Well equiped for a week away and gave us the peaceful break away we were looking for. The Brown Cow Inn next door but one was a great bonus - which is owned by the landlords (I Think) but anyways they were a great help with advises- & Agood night is to be had there with great food at very reasonable prices. Will be happy to return when next in the vicinity

The cottage was perfect for what we wanted.

Lovely, quiet and peaceful, with beautiful scenery and plenty of places to go and vist, with lots of lovely walks. The people are very friendly and welcoming, and the Brown cow pub next door is definitely worth eating in !! The food is amazing and the price is fair and the portions are very generous. We enjoyed our stay so much that we already booked to go back in March for my birthday.

Although this cottage could have a lot of potential it was sadly let down by the very bad DIY and general cleanliness of the property good location for exploring and the food at the Brown Cow pub next door was amazing but past reviews have highlighted some problems that haven't been addressed

Whole cottage needs an update.

Lighting very poor, has been mentioned Before, loose toilet seat still not fixed. No outside Lighting pitch black. No dog walks as cottage is on a very noisy busy road. Only good point is pub next door with very reasonably price good grub

Small issue with leak in downstairs loo but apart from that great little place pub next door friendly and welcoming off road parking brilliant and nice and remote

Lovely place.

Just a couple of minor points but nothing that took anything away from our stay. - When you put the address in Google maps its not quite right. Was easy to find though especially when we stopped at the brown cow inn first. Might be worth stressing it's on the same terrace row as the pub. - We didn't know what to do with our rubbish/recycling. Apologies if we missed any instructions. We left it all double bagged by the door.

The cottage provided everything we needed to stay for a week.

It was basic but tidy. There were a few maintenance issues that needed looking at but I’m going to give the benefit of the doubt and say that they will be resolved once the height of the letting season is over and someone can address them fully rather than patching them! We had a lovely stay, wi-fi was good, great location for exploring the western Lake District and the pub (next door but one) was a great added bonus. if you decide to get shopping delivered to the property, Tesco will deliver there. Make sure you select 2 Park Nook CLOSE, as there is a road called Park Nook in the village apparently! Also go to the butchers in Waberthwaite for bacon and sausages (www.rbwoodall.co.uk) Delicious!! There is a local shop in the village too in case of necessities. And, if you’re old school and like to send postcards like us, there is a post box in the wall of the butchers shop too. :)

We have had the best time here.

We will definitely be back soon. X

We had a great stay here as did Louie beagle.

Comfy very clean and everything you needed. Couldn’t fault it. Was a perfect getaway for us. Loved the cows daily, and the pub next door is outstanding for food, would highly recommend. We would for sure stay again. Thank you for a great break! Worth every penny.

The owner of this place needs to spend a couple of days staying in this place to imagine it from a guest point of view.

No instructions about any of the facilities such as how the boiler worked or the arrangements for heating and hot water, Wi-Fi etc were immediately apparent. We eventually found rudimentary information scrawled on a piece of paper in the tv cabinet and only later in the stay found a printed sheet amongst the leaflets about the area. The kitchen equipment, pans etc were old and scratched making them practically unusable and the oven was dirty and filled the room with smoke when switched on, at one point it set the smoke alarm off and made everything smell of grease. The boiler was house behind a cover which was simply taped to the adjoining cupboard. The windows downstairs were filthy, pity because the view towards the sea was lovely. The downstairs toilet was wobbly and leaked all over the floor. The property description states Wi-Fi is included but we couldn’t connect at all during our stay. Outside the front in the building adjoining (the pub?) a window was smashed and there was glass all over the pavement and the main entrance round the back was unkempt and unwelcoming. Sykes Cottages the photos on your website listing bear no actual resemblance to the reality. You need to go and inspect the place and revise your listing. Unfortunately for me I only looked at the most recent reviews, if you read a few more you get the true picture. The whole experience would put me off booking with Sykes again.

Overall, the cottage was fantastic and we will definitely be returning.

Spacious, clean, warm, comfortable and well equipped. There are even cleaning products provided. The boiler and cooker were a little confusing at first, but the owner has left all of the manuals for the appliances on top of the washing machine. The property is on a main road but we didn’t think it was excessively noisy. The bed and pillows were a bit firm for our liking, but that is personal taste. Next time we’ll be taking our own pillows. What impressed us the most was the standard of cleanliness, we know this property allows dogs but you would never guess if you didn’t know - no doggy smells and not a single hair seen during our stay. The downstairs loo is a bit wobbly and has a small leak and the frying pans have seen better days - I left a note for the housekeeper so the owner should be made aware. This is a lovely property, well worth a visit.

Had a fabulous time, the cottage was extremely clean, one of the cleanest I’ve stayed in.

The weather was awful so spent a lot of time in the cottage, greyhounds don’t like the cold! We totally chilled, books, jigsaw and board games provided. Beds were really comfortable and there was plenty of suitable space for wet coats and boots. However, back door lock needs looking at, instructions regarding switching on the boiler need updating and info on which bin is for the cottage would help. An outside light on the front of the cottage would be helpful as it was pitch black when we left the pub next door. The pub was welcoming and the food was great. Would book again.

This is the first time that I have come across a self-basting oven, it had so much grease and oil inside that you do not need to bring cooking oil with you.

The boiler cover was simply taped on and constantly fell off, it would be easy for a small child or a pet to gain access and either burn themselves or get electrocuted. Stay here at your own risk.

Awful place.

The lovely photos in the advert are not the reality ! The place had an unpleasant odour, it was dirty, of poor repair and a flag stone away from a very busy, noisy road. We booked for 3 nights, however only stayed 2 and that was out of necessity due to sheer perseverance of making the most of a bad situation and not wanting to waste time off work. I've escalated my complaint to Sykes and sent photos (pity I can't upload them on to this review) however, I'm now 12 days waiting and still no response from the owners or Sykes regarding a refund. Sykes complaint process is a joke ! ***Don't waste your hard earned money***

On arrival we discovered there was no hot water and this was not rectified.

Someone or something had urinated in one of the beds. The cooker was awful, the oven was thick with grease -disgusting! No garden, just a shared parking area with a bench seat. We got so fed up we left early.

We had no hot water all week, due to boiler malfunction.

The pub next door, did not want to get involved, although they were aware of the problem. Neither did they want to give me the owners phone no. So we had to contact Sykes. This in itself was a feat of ingenuity, as there was no mobile signal. The problem was not fixed despite 2 visits by the owner. The cover to the boiler was loose and in my mind presented a serious safety hazard. The instructions for the smart tv were inadequate and it took us all week to work it out. Some of the crockery had not been properly cleaned. The bathroom plug was was inoperable and the toilet seat needed some attention. We could not report any of this because we did not have the owners no. and the main prority was the boiler.

Ok pretty clean property but a few problems which are quite big We had no hot water for 8 nights and have been having fast cold showers which is not acceptable when paying for property's Also outnof all windows in the property only one in the bedroom opens so the property gets extremely hot and stuffy There isn't a shared garden it is a car park for the cars so when letting the dogs out for a pee (we have a 12 year old dog with a problem where he needs to go out regulary) it's very very difficult.

The actual area we have stayed in a few times and the area is lovely but the stay in the house wasn't great at all I'm afraid

We had a lovely holiday and the views out the upstairs windows are lovely.

Overlooking the cows grazing at the back and a farm + slight sea view at the front. Outside the property needs some TLC, where the bins are kept is very messy (I know it's a bin store but it should be kept tidy & clean). Everything just needed some updating and taking care of. The kitchen didn't have much storage and we felt the whole property could have made much better use of the space it has. Things seem to have been done cheaply/quick fixes. The main concern we had was the shower. The shower curtain wasn't fit for use, our 1st day after having our showers we went back downstairs to find that the water had run down through the ceiling into the kitchen. HUGE safety concern as the water was running into the sockets! For the rest of our stay we had to sit in the bath and use the shower that way. We couldn't have a bath as no option to switch the tap (unless we missed something). This mustn't be the 1st time it's happened as there was a damp patch on the ceiling. The property is also extremely warm! Unfortunately for us we only found the fans on our last day and we had turned the heating off on the 1st day. Not that it's a big issue for us but there wasn't a DVD player as listed. The basket with magazines/leaflets is very out of date, some up to date information on the area would have been good. A little welcome pack would have been a nice touch. There wasn't many basic essentials in the kitchen either, no washing up sponge, tea towel etc but luckily I had taken these with us. Also no hand soap. The pictures need updating too as we don't feel they give a true representation of how the property looks. This could be such a lovely place with upgrades and given the TLC is so desperately needs.

We loved our stay, it was perfect for our 3 days away with our 2 dogs.

Food next door in the pub was amazing, everyone was friendly. Lots of walks around the area too. We would stay again

The advert stated there was a DVD player.

Unfortunately there wasn’t one provided. The property was really warm even though the central heating never came on, bonus. The property overall it’s a great property and we would definitely stay again.

Really enjoyed our stay at no.

2 Park Nook. Warm, comfy and clean. Thankyou and would stay again if in the Lake District.

Fantastic location for walking in the fells , cottage comfortable and practical but not luxurious and main road noisy in morning and evening but l knew this would be the case as l know the area .

Brown Cow inn next door very welcoming me good food.

Absolutely loved our time in your beautiful little cottage.

It was amazing. The only thing I can pull you down on was not enough coat hangers to hang clothes in wardrobes. Other than that it was perfect. X

Good size and well-situated.

Recommend the food from the pub next door. Traffic can be noisy at night. Would stay again.

This is the second time we have been to the cottage and both times we have left happy staff and customers in the brown cow were very friendly only half hour from wastwater and the sea definitely booking again only negative was the shower could do with an upgrade but was OK to use Ps for the best Cumberland sausage Woodhall is 2 min walk away

This was disgusting.

The beds looked like they had been slept in the main bed the mattress looked like it had just come from the tip. The quilts had crumbs over them. We refused to sleep in the beds. The bathroom was filthy and has a musty mouldy smell. The wardrobes also had the same smell. The kitchen had mould/damp in the corner and like upstairs hadn't been cleaned. The cooker and oven looked like it needed an oil change as it had that much grease on it. The TV, windows, curtains and downstairs toilet also could do with cleaning. There was cobwebs and spiders everywhere including dead spiders in the entrance. The washing up sponges where disgusting and looked years old. We left after 1 night as we couldn't use the bathroom as we felt we wouldn't get clean. Overall it felt like we were in a squat. You don't want a property like this on your portfolio and I believe we should be reimbursed. We have a video which we are considering posting and sending to trading standards.

We had a lovely stay at 2 Park nook close, the cottage was clean and tidy, although the cooker glass needs a good clean.

The main bed was comfortable but very squeaky, I think a new mattress would be in order. (we didn't use the second bedroom). As stated, the cottage is directly on a main road with some heavy traffic, but it didn't bother us too much. The pub next door did good pub grub at a reasonable price, with big portions and was very friendly. You do need a car to get around, the nearest village is Ravenglass with three pubs a shop, and heritage railway, about 5miles away. Although there is an excellent farm shop nearby. We travelled along the coast north and south, and inland to the lakes, beautiful countryside with superb views. Haverigg and Wastwater were particularly good. All in all a very good stay and would recommend.

Property is a good location to explore the lakes.

Beach only 20 min drive. Pub next door friendly and fun. Unfortunately some minor things were; there was no soap at all in the property, no bin bags for the bins. The curtains in the bedrooms are so thin and therefore once light unable to sleep. We also had to clean the fridge on arrival as was not clean. The beds were comfortable and bedding clean and we enjoyed our stay and would return as for the price of a 2 night stay it was as expected. Definitely go to pub next door. Many thanks

Lovely warm cottage, which, from previous experience, is the most important thing!

Comfortable bed and good quality bedding. Could do with a few more bits in the kitchen eg fried egg spatula, peeler, knives sharpened and bowls and more storage in the smaller bedroom. The little freezer was an unexpected bonus! Unfortunately some previous guests clearly weren't very good at washing up. Settees could do with cushions for us shorties, but that's probably down to covid. However, having spent a week in another cottage which had more facilities than needed, but was always cold, the constant hot water and comfortable temperature of the cottage makes up for any shortcomings after a day of walking!

A lovely little cottage.

Enjoyed our stay. The food in the Brown Cow was excellent. Will return.

Had a fantastic stay with my partner and our friends.

The cottage had everything needed for a lovely weekend stay including festive decorations, good cooking facilities and 2 nice bedrooms. The location of the house and the pub was fantastic and it was peaceful enough for a relax but also in good driving distance to some really pretty places around the Lake District.

Dirty dishes no t towel kitchen towel no dishcloth the sink dirty no bowl to wash your dishes microwave filthy lightbulb in bedroom needs replaced toilet seat broken and water running constantly out of cistern this is only a few I will be contacting sykescottages

The property was exactly as described.

It was clean and had all the basic essentials included. The property and it fittings are a little tired but still perfectly functional and comfortable. We stayed with family who also rented number 1. The weather wasn’t kind to us for the latter parts of the week but the smart television, books and games helped to pass the time on a wet afternoon. We visited the pub next door for food one evening and the food was very tasty and reasonably priced. All in all, we had a very pleasant stay.

A fantastic and relaxing holiday in a lovely comfortable cottage.

The food from the pub next door was great, and the fact that you could get takeaway made it so easy. The cottage had everything we needed, and the enclosed area for the dogs makes things easy. We would definitely come back.

The property was not very clean, the oven was disappointing, food remnants in the bottom of the oven, the glass door was brown with baked on grime.

High dusting had not been done in quite sometime. The cutlery draw was minus forks, this was sorted by the owner straight away, the point is basic checks are not been done. The cottage was a little tired on the inside.

Lovely well kept and clean.

.had everything we needed apart from the are no forks (small thing though) . Traffic noise was very loud but didn't bother me to much.. Generally needed a little TLC but a very nice place I would recommend it. Would go back in the future.

Great place to stay within easy reach of all the places we like to go.

The pub which is attached to the cottage was very welcoming very friendly locals and staff with great food 2 min walk from waberthwaite shop which sells great Cumberland sausage and bacon close the bedroom windows at night as between 6 am and 7 am fair bit of traffic going to Sellafield but absolutely loved the holiday and will be booking again

On the whole great little location ,the cottage was great for what we needed however there was alot of flys you can put this down to being near farm land .

However I feel they need to invest in a fly trap as this was a bit of a problem.

There were a few minor issues with the property - handle not attached to the wardrobe cupboard in the big bedroom, fridge was not working on arrival but this was sorted when we spoke to the owner.

The property was clean and comfortable but is situated on a busy, fast main road and, if you are a light sleeper, is not ideal. It is also fairly remote, you will have to travel to visit any sights. Having said that it is an ideal base for exploring the Lake District. The pub next door does exceptionally good food and the staff are very welcoming and friendly.

The property is on the A590 right next to fast traffic, and therefore quite noisy, so having windows open on the road elevation is not advised.

The property is nice enough but needs a bit of an upgrade. Carpets looking worn, fridge not very cold, and also surprisingly noisy Overall its OK for the money, and it's handy for the Western lakes and coast.

The cottage was lovely and as expected from the details provided.

It was comfortable, clean and good size for husband and myself plus our dogs although it could easily accommodate 4 too. TV reception was good (freesat), iron and ironing board available, washing machine if required, small worktop freezer was useful. Pub next door was lovely, good food, good ale and very friendly, no noise from there at all. The road outside was fine it didn't bother us or keep us awake at night, although the speed limit is quite fast on that stretch so you are aware of the larger vehicles passing. If any improvements were to be made I would suggest the fridge needs to be colder (it was set at maximum cold temperature) as we felt we needed to add ice packs to it to keep food cold, and knives weren't very sharp made preparing food difficult. Wish I had also taken a sieve as there wasn't one there but as I didn't cook often it wasn't a big problem. In all we have another lovely week in the Lakes.

Great location for exploring coastal n countryside areas.

...very friendly and welcoming hosts at The Brown cow Pub nextdoor super food n drinks.would definitely stay in future.

The cottage had not phone connection you have to drive down the road to make phone calls, there is no TV connection only cache up TV, the cottage was clean and lovely but cooker oven and trays need to be cleaned and there was only two saucepans one very small and one large, if you are a lite sleeper then this cottage is not for you, as its on a very busy road cars and lorries day and night.

on the hole the cottage is a lovely and comfortable and good base. we had a lovely stay .

The cottage was as described and ideally placed to explore this part of Cumbria.

Constant hot water was a bonus as we did get wet and cold exploring the area. The road outside was busy at times, as per description, making opening a window not ideal but the fact that there where fans available if it got too warm made up for it. Food and drink from The Brown Cow excellent good value and on doorstep. Would use again if needing a base to explore from

We enjoyed our stay at the above,a good base to explore the coastal towns and western lakes.

The property was comfortable {especially beds} but a little shabby,could do with some repainting. The road noise was intrusive at night,but we were warned that the property was on a main road. We both found the shower poor ,difficult to achieve the right temperature

Nice roomy house, very warm, tidy and clean.

Good base for visiting other areas. . Pub next door was very friendly and welcoming. No rowdy neighbours, quiet. Like the gates on the drive for security. Liked Ravenglass and the mini steam train, good pubs too

The cottage is in a great location for visiting the coast and the West Lakes, we thought it was really comfortable and had everything we needed.

It was lovely and warm, the beds were comfy and there was plenty of room. Pub next door did fantastic food and you couldn't hear the pub from the cottage at all. Easy parking and just as advertised!

Very noisy accommodation from road outside.

Disappointing property and thus we left early. Coupled with the noisy road which meant it difficult to sleep - there are no windows downstairs that open which made the property very hot and stuffy, no grass area outside. The property was clean, a little outdated and a has a very noisy fridge. The property would be fine for a 1 night stay but NOT suitable for a week stay. The pub next door was fantastic. Very friendly and good food.

Both beds terribly uncomfortable especially the large double.

Otherwise a perfect little break

A lovely comfortable cottage, the bed in the front room was very comfortable.

The cottage was well equipped, great fridge, great little seperate freezer. (need ice tray cubes though) The only problem was the smell of foist from the downstairs toilet. Very bad. But it didnt deter from the cottage. The pub being right next door was great, very friendly, a great pint. The food was incredible. Lots of walks right on the doorstep. A short drive into Cockermouth for the day. Would stay again and reccommend to friends who like walking.

Exceeded expectations in that the chef from the pub next door actually brought our meal over to the cottage for us and our steaks were excellent.

He also connected our Wi-Fi for us and was altogether very helpful. Heating in cottage was very good and cosy. No noise from pub either . Many thanks

Cottage was a good base for exploring.

Sadly the weather was against us but also there are no safe or easy paths to explore which was really disappointing considering that's what we were really looking for.

But to be fair the weather didn't help with plenty of rain. To explore the area safely we would need to drive. The railway was OK but again it was very wet and windy. The scenery is spectacular and in good weather it would be much more conducive to explore and find different walks.

We had a fantastic week away, location is amazing, also the dogs were very happy

Lovely cottage, perfect holiday retreat.

Perfect and very well equipped cottage.

I could only see one thing that was missing and that was a hairdryer.

Lovely cottage with good facilities

The cottage was warm and cosy but there were little touches missing.

For example I couldn't get hot water on the first night and there were no instructions for how to operate the boiler. I had to open it and figure it out. Likewise the hob and cooker had no instructions and the switch for the cooker was hidden behind the microwave. A little info booklet would be a welcome addition I think just telling you where to find things and how to operate them. Also finishing niceties like additional hand towels for the bathrooms. We ended up using the ones supplied but if we'd had 4 adults as the cottage can support we wouldn't have had spare towels to use. Otherwise the cottage is comfortable and well furnished. The main road at the front is busy and a national speed limit so if you're bringing dogs or young children make sure the drive gates are secure before letting them out but it's a good base for exploring the area

The cottage was lovely, it was clean and tidy, very comfortable and within reasonable reach of most attractions.

The pub next door, The Brown Cow had a very warm and friendly atmosphere and very nice people from the area. With very good food too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 2 park nook and I would recommend this to any small family. Absolutely delightful

Cottage is in a good location for exploring western lakes and beaches.

Bed sheets were dirty on arrival / marks and hairs on them. Lots of flies and wasps. Parking can be tricky if people are staying next door. No garden to speak of. Wasn’t terrible but wouldn’t stay here again. Busy main road right outside front door. Disappointed but it was just a base as we were out on the hills all day.

very , very well equipped , an ideal position to explore the lake district (as we did) , we are not of the keep fit brigade so using are car we found castles (muncaster) and railways (ravenglass) to enjoy.

next door was a very good pub (no noise ) but excellent food which we enjoy tremendously . every one very friendly , which made our stay a rememberable week. we have ticked the lake district off our wish list for the near future but if we decide to return we have saved the cottage particulars, being so impressed . thank you from Roy and Lynn

We had a fabulous week at this cosy, comfortable well equipped cottage.

Although slightly isolated with regard to local shops many of the places of interest are not far away. Muncaster Castle and the Ravensglass and Eskdale railway are very close by. The cottage is attached to the Brown Cow pub. Here you can unwind with a real ale and enjoy some very good homemade meals with friendly hosts. Our dogs were exhausted after lots of lovely walks. Highly recommended.

Fantastic area for touring the Lakes.

Park Nook lovely sunny disposition. Clean, tidy and warm. Very good value for money. Linked with the pub next door which served nice meals.

Very straightforward booking process.

The cottage was great, perfect for a weekend away. Good location and facilities.

There is poor connectivity at the cottage, therefore Wi-Fi woukd be a great addition.

There is no shower, which again would be a great addition, as well as saving the owners a lot of money in fuel bills. Also, a DVD player for the evenings and wet days would be a good facility. Overall, a comfortable, warm and cozy cottage, with the Brown Cow Inn just next door. It is well placed for tourist attractions, within the Lake District.
